January 2007: Revlon Colourstay 12 hour Eyeshadow Quads

Skin Type: Normal Sensitive

Value for Money: This is worth the money. I would definitely try the other colours in the range!

Comments: It has a beautiful rich velvety look. Did not irritate my eyes at all! And it really does stay on for 12 hours or more. Loved the fact it did not crease, fade or smudge. I was able to make many different looks with the different colour layerings.

Skin Type: Slightly Dry, Normal Combination

Value for Money: This is a quality eye shadow I won't regret having. I will be looking for more in the range.

Comments: I loved the individual brushes for contouring and shading. I quickly mastered the techniques and soon had the best eye shadow makeup I have ever been able to apply by myself. It did not smudge and was still in place at the end of a long day. It did not irritate my eyes in any way.

Skin Type: Combination Oily Skin

Value for Money: Great value for 4 lovely eye shadows that perform well and are lovely colours. I will most probably be buying some more of these.

Comments: I really think these are great value eye shadows, as they have a beautiful soft texture, which allows them to blend easily, but at the same time they stay put all day and only fade very slightly. They do not feel chalky on the lids, which is great. Only suffered a small amount of "fallout" onto my cheeks, but this is due to the soft, blendable texture of the shadows, so I can handle it! The product has no apparent smell. I liked the colours [sandstorm], although do not think they were the best for my complexion - so I will explore a different coloured quad. The colours were good for creating depth, but probably only 3 needs to be used at a time. The darkest colour worked lovely applied wet as an eyeliner.

Skin Type: Oily Skin

Value for Money: Yes. I would definitely but it again

Comments: This product was surprising. When I opened it I thought the beige shades looked really washed out. They are deceptive. It turned out to be fantastic highlighting colour that blended so easily. It stayed in place, but then again I haven't ever really had problems with eye shadow moving. I would recommend it.

Skin Type: Combination Sensitive Skin

Value for Money: Yes, it's definitely value for money, and I'd buy it again! Without a doubt!

Comments: Powder is fine and pigmented. The colour goes on smoothly, even with the given applicators. They're shimmery, but yet not over the top, making them suitable for both day & night use. They wear well, but they still smudge a little on my oily lids.
