not maybelline's best.
I love maybelline quads. I just dont think these single shadows have as much pigmentation as the quads. I would still buy these if I wanted a specific color but otherwise I would just buy a quad.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Beach Blush, Silken Taupe, Amethyst
I only have three of these but I struck gold with all the colors. The first I tried was a limited edition summer collection single called Beach Blush. It was the last color left in the display and I seriously debated putting it back because it looked similiar to CoverGirl's Tapestry Taupe, but lighter. It was so cheap I got it anyway and am glad I did because it is much more pigmented than I expec...read moreted. Silken Taupe is a nice light, yes, taupe with a pretty strong shimmer going on, very pretty as an all over shade or just a highlight. Amethyst is a a bright medium purple with a blue duochrome, also the same color found in the Amethyst Smokes Quad. With the L'oreal Decrease primer these do not crease or fade too much.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Antique Jade
I love, love, LOVE it! The coverage and the color is just beautiful. One downside is it does tend to crease by the end of my work day. I haven't tried it with a primer, so don't know if that will help or not. Oh, and it doesn't take much to get the coverage you want. So it is a good value for the money.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Not That Pigmented
I have this in the shades 'Silver Lining' and 'Emerald.' I haven't tried emerald, which is turqouise, because it cracked and I know it will be a big mess when I open it. I have use silver lining, which is your basic sparkly silver, and I've noticed it is not pigmented at all. I just did a swatch on my hand and the color barely shows up at all. There is some sparkle left on the skin and the slighte...read morest hint of silver, but its not evident that there is shadow on it. The only good application I could get was with the sponge tip applicator, and I hate using those. The shadow could be rubbed away easily, meaning it will not hold up all day. If you want a light sparkle over a pigmented eyeshadow, you could use this. You could also wet the tip of the brush and put it over eyeliner to make the eyeliner sparkly. The container, as with most drugstore cosmetics, is cheapy and comes with a cheap sponge tip brush which you should probably toss if you want precise makeup application.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Great, subtle, luvly
I use Expert Eyes as a base (just reviewed them in my blog); and I love their texture. It is creamier than any other eyeshadow (powdered) ever. Has little pigmentation though; but if I start with a good primer, they rock.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Recently purchased dying for color!
I bought this in emerald. I've been trying all kinds of different brands and colors of eyeshadows since I am so bored with brown. I ran across this and decided to try, and I'm still on the fence. I have to use an eye primer to get this to stay. Once I get it on in the intensity it should be, it sort of poofs away. I wonder where it goes since its not on my cheeks or anything. I have tried th...read moreis dry and wet, brushes, sponges, and things just aren't working out. I don't think maybelline will be on my list of eyeshadows next time. UPDATE! I'm mixing with contact solution a tip I found online. Looks Great!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Love These
These eye shadows are definitely my favorite from the drugstore. I love the color range and the shimmer is perfect since I prefer a shimmer to a matte anyday. I found 2 new favorite shades and 2 others that are great as well. The darker colors are awesome for a smoky eye look and the lighter shades look great all the way around the eye.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Works Great for ME!!
I went to the Maybelline web site and watched the video's they have on how to apply your makeup and other great ideas. Anyway, I ran out and bought this brand new color, first time I saw it I knew it would be perfect with my blonde/blue shades, plus the Fall colors the have are wonderful. I bought the Single, color, "Creme de Cocoa", and first thing I did was get my eyebrow brush, YES EY...read moreEBROW's! I put this on and right away loved it!

So I say, if people complement you then, "HEY" that works for me!!!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 1 people said helpful

One color
I dont like to buy containers with more than one color. I end up throwing it away once I have used my color. This single container is great.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 1 people said helpful
