Maybelline Eyestudio Quad - Winter Iris

This is Maybelline Eyestudio Quad in Winter Iris which I got from Maybelline Simply Gorgeous Finale as one of the door gift. I've so far only tried Maybelline Diamond Glow Eyestudio Quad in Copper Brown and I love that palette to max. So how about this? Read on.

Packaging : 6 / 10
- Small, sleek, handy with dual ended brush. No mirror though. Bad. :(

User-friendliness : 7 / 10
- A compact that comes with brushes will always bring conveniences to the user. However, still that I'll prefer if they're to include a mirror. (I don't mean the reflective side of the metal-like casing.) There's a simple diagram that teach the user how to use the palette.

Color : 8 / 10
- They are four shades (shimmery white, light lilac, shimmery deep violet & shimmery dark blue). Out of the four, light lilac is the most crappy shade which doesn't show up nicely unless you layer it 3 to 4 times. Other than that, the white, violet and blue are just simply gorgeous (blue can be better but I'm ok with it). Use the violet and blue to create smokey will definitely make you sexier.

Texture : 7 / 10
- Not as good as the Diamond Glow Quad but still good enough. These are less pigment and more powdery feel. Anyhow, still great.

Lasting-power : 7 / 10
- They are good even without primer. Not bad not bad. If you have oily lids, better prime your lid before head.

Overall : 7 / 10
- This is retail at RM29.90 each in major phamarcy. This is not bad for the quality but I'll prefer buying the Diamond Glow Quad in compare with this.

So, have you try this? Any thoughts?

love,
