Swatches and EOTD: Maybelline Eyeshadow Studio Quad "Green with Envy"
8:00 AMA few weeks ago I posted some pictures and swatches of Maybellines Eyeshadow Studio Quad in Mystical Mermaid. I really liked the colors and the pigmentation of that set, so when Maybelline was on sale at Meijer a few weeks back, I picked up Green with Envy.
This set is a little bit more up my alley - more neutral, warmer, and olives. Olive green is my weakness. Throw in there some light neutrals I can wear, and I'm sold!
The highlight shade is a very pale warm pearl. Reminds me of a warmer version of MAC Vanilla Pigment. Next up is a very pale bronze/gold. This shade is perfect with the highlight. The third shade in is a bright olive green. This is a light enough shade to completely wearable all the time, but throw in some deeper colors and this really makes a gorgeous smokey eye. The last shade is a deep black with golden and olive shimmer. It reminds me vaguely of Fyrinnae's Bastet meets Dokkalfar, but not as dark.
And, just a quick look, using the colors as you would expect with the lineup. The bronze shade is on the inner corner, darkest shade on the outer corner/crease. I used the green to line my lower lashline and then the lightest cream/ivory shade as my highlight.
Like with the other set, the pigmentation is quite nice on these. They are very smooth and creamy, and make blending a breeze. I am very pleased with the new colors and collections Maybelline has come out with recently - they really have done a nice job in upping the quality and color selections.
