Eyeshadow Quad
SUMMARY OF REVIEWS
L.A. Colors Eyeshadow Quad costs $1.25 and delivers highly pigmented, blendable shadows that perform comparably to department store brands, according to beauty content creator Emily Noel. The quad includes three mattes and one shimmer in most shades, though the Classics palette offers lower contrast and Sweet Princess lacks enough contrast for some. A few palettes like Fashionista have three shimmers instead, but all are smooth, pigmented, and don't flake.
