Color Icon Eyeshadow Quad

By Andie 7 years ago.

While the shadow in this is to Wet n Wild's usual standards, but nothing is more off putting for a product to be in wierdly shaped pans, I bought this one as a test to see what the new formulations are like, but they certainly aren't better enough to not be able to easily fit these pans into my Z palette

If you're like me and feel overwhelmed by the intensity of pink shades that have been coming out, you'll enjoy this easy and buildable purple quad. The "transition" shade is fairly sheer but can be built up to a medium pigmentation and blends easily. The "crease" shade is a really strong performer -- pigmented and blendable. Great in the crease and as a shadow liner. The "eyelid" shade has a fairly sheer base, so I prefer it as an inner corner highlight. It's brightening and shimmery. The browbone shade is a really interesting shimmery white that seems to have some lavender in it. It looks fantastic under the browbone and I'm thinking about using it as a cheek highlight, as well. I like to wear this quad to work but it can be easily made more dramatic by building up the "crease" shade and foiling the shimmers. I can see why this quad didn't get a very good grade - the matte shade is sheer with one swipe and kicks up some power, and the shimmers aren't as buttery as I've come to expect from Wet N Wild. However, for my everyday use, it performs wonderfully. For the value, this quad is incredible.
