Prescriptives Well Suited Collection Review, Swatches, Photos
Prescriptives’ Well Suited Collection is a nice launch easy, wearable shades in pre-made palettes (cool, neutral, and warm), along with the release of new longwearing liners. My favorite products from this launch are the new longwearing liners and the Well-Suited Finishing Powder. I also thought Posh Beige was a gorgeous shade from the LipColors.
Well-Suited Eye Color Compact ($40.00 U.S. / $48.00 CDN)
All three palettes had decent to good color pay off, but I did find shadows that had a more matte finish were a little less smooth and could skip a bit when swatched. These colors are designed to be wearable shades, and Prescriptives succeeded in this aspect. If you’re more of a bold color kind of person, these might not be up your alley. If you’re looking for something you can wear all week, you may find these are suitable for you!
- Warm includes a soft, satin-y peach; a warm-toned medium brown with gold and green shimmer; a neutral-toned golden green-brown; a dark teal with aqua-blue shimmer; and a slightly warmed-up dark brown with a semi-matte/matte finish.
- Neutral looks like a smoky eyes palette, actually. It includes a neutral-toned peach with light peach-gold shimmer; a neutral-tone reddish-brown with multicolored shimmer; a satiny, dark, chocolate brown; a medium silver with slight shimmer; and a matte black.
- Cool consists of a peachy-pink with silvery shimmer; a cool-toned chocolate brown with slight shimmer; a grayish shade with brown undertones; a reddish-plum with golden shimmer; and a matte dark purple.
Face
- Well-Suited Finishing Powder ($28.00) is a satiny, dusty pink with the collection’s theme as a raised pattern on the compact. It goes on as a pale, slightly warm pink (neutral or warm, but definitely not cool). It doesn’t have any shimmer, and it looks very natural and soft on skin.

As always, great swatches! 😀
All the quads look lovely, as do Posh Nude l/s and the finishing powder. Cute packaging too!
Thanks, Marcela! 😀
How smudgeable are the kohls, and how long do they wear? If they do well in those departments I will luuurve them 😀
Blue Kohl looks a bit drag… Matte royal blue always looks so 80’s granny on me 😉
They seem smudgeable, but I don’t know about wear time since I don’t have any yet. I think I’m gonna pick up one, though.
Does the finishing powder control oil well? And is the finish matte or dewy?
I haven’t tried it in practice, just swatches in-store! The finish is dewy, though.
I really like that cool palette. 🙂
ITA. The cool palette is the only thing that caught my attention. Everything else is boring and dupeable IMO.
Think you’ll get it?
I’m loving the cool palette too. I saw these at Nordstroms the other day and they are pretty. And they are huge too. Lots of product in the palettes.
Awesome! Think you’ll get one for yourself, Lisa?
It’s such a shame that I can’t find one eyeshadow swatch that I do not like here! 🙁 lol
Aww!
I’m sorry but this collection is dull and boring to me. I’m pretty predictable in my makeup choices ( smokey eyes, nude lips anyone?) but this is a total snooze-fest.
I find Prescriptives is wearable, not necessarily bright and “exciting,” which is always good to see, too!
Too boring for me! Sorry
