A on your entire eye lid and inner corner with the bigger sponge.
Blend
B on your medium lid with the opposite side of the bigger sponge.
Blend
C on lower medium lid with the smaller sponge
The
Maybelline quad comes in
sleek rectangular plastic case with a glass lid. The applicator is long and has
sponge tip on both sides. No, there is no mirror in the case. :(
My experience
This
quad is perfect if you want to get all dolled up for a party or special evening
outing. The four shades of the eye shadow, dark purple, light purple, peachy
brown, pearly silver are full of shimmer. The Dark Purple shade is the darkest
in the quad and has purple and blue color shimmers. It is perfect to create a
purple smoky look. The light purple colour is exotic lilac shade with delicate
mauve-colored shimmers. Peachy brown shade is a muted shade, best to create
depth in your eye makeup. It also has a hidden shade of lavender to it. The
Pearly Silver shade is a creamy shade having silver shimmers and is perfect for
highlighting purposes. All the four eye shadow shades have a prominent silver
shimmer to them. The eye shadow shades have soft and have creamy texture. They
are easy to apply and blend on the lids. However, on oily lids the colour might
settle within the creases. On my lids, it happened an hour after the
application.

My Take:- Maybelline
Diamond Glow Eyeshadow Lilac Mauve is a decent eye shadow quad with shades that
will appeal to the girls the most.
They look fun and shimmery but at least in the swatch photo, I find them quite similar! I'd prefer if they looked more different, I'm sure a primer helps!
ReplyDeleteSure Sharlynn, a primer will surely accentuate their distinct hues. They are not that similar, trust me :)
DeleteSure Sharlynn, a primer will accentuate their distinct hues. They don't look all that similar...trust me :).
Deletei totally agree with the review dear
ReplyDeletebut they should offer better pigmentation too right
The swatch is just single application. One can increase pigmentation with multiple coats.
Deletethey look nice but i dont think i can use all the shades together as it'll be too shimmery...nice review :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Prayati
DeleteNice review Preti.. i wish they could have been more pigmented.:)
ReplyDeleteHey Niesha! Thanks. One can increase pigmentation with multiple coats.

ReplyDeleteYa i wish that too!

I have different colours palette and I like it so much! :) But I have to say that I always use eye primer before applying eyeshadows.
ReplyDeleteI like the shades but for some reason I was never tempted to try any. They look too small for the price :)
ReplyDeleteYa but they last long :)
