I LOVE these colors. I have used up and replaced this quad twice already. I could do without the upper right shade (Crease? the dark purple) but nonetheless I use the other three shades until...

I've only used the top two colors in the palette. The black was too gritty and the white just never applied really. I loved how the dark matte purple blended effortlessly into my crease without me...

I really love the pigment of this eye shadow. I noticed that a lot of people reviewed saying that there's not much pigment and that its chalky, but I truthfully did not have that problem. The color...

The color payoff on this quad is mediocre. I do not recommend it. This is very chalky. I also have the Emerald Smokes (greens) and it is much better.

personally this is my favorite for a smokey eye, the colors are dark enough that the purple doesnt look crazy but the purple still makes my dark eyes pop

Of all the Maybelline Stylish Smokes Quads, this is probably my least used for some reason-maybe since its more of a dramatic quad for more smoky looks & w/ my super pale skin, i like more earthy...

This quad is absolutely terrible... the only bright side is that the colours have slightly decent pigmentation, aside from the black. The black is not only chalky and light, it also has tacky...

Overall, it's a decent palette. Blends well, nice pigmentation, especially with a primer. I like the versatility of the palette - you can go soft for work and smoke it up for evening. I have no...
