L'Oreal Paris Colour Riche Quad review!

I decided to get some new eye shadows for myself and despite not buying much from L'Oreal, I liked the look of L'Oreal's Paris Colour Riche Quad. There are four different eye shadows set out in a cute shape in the quad. I got mine in Nude Lingerie. The colours are browns, beiges and  natural looking shades. I could wait to try them out. 

 

 

First of all, I really love the colour combination. The dark and lighter colours can create a wonderful smoky eye and there are useful instructions on the back of the case in which it helps you create the perfect eye shadow look with the quad.

 

The packaging is average in my eyes. Nothing special but nothing particularly bad about it. I like that it comes with a double ended brush to apply the different shadows with. The brush is soft and simple with a slightly angled brush on one end. I do really love the quirky design the eye shadows come in.

 There are two browns, one dark and the other a lighter brown. There is a lovely tanned beige shade and a white shadow which works and looks a lot like a high lighter and illuminator. I love the colours and they are excellent to build up and also work extremely well together.

 

The shadows have a nice amount of shimmer in them. They are subtle enough to wear in the day but can be glammed up for night. Once I apply these shadows, they stay put all day. They have excellent staying power and the colours don't fade. The shadows also don't crease in the eye lid as the day goes on either which is always a plus for me!

 

 

L'Oreal Paris Colour Riche Quads come in eight different quads to choose from. I personally love Nude Lingerie the best. The white high lighter shadow is my favourite shadow in the quad. It really brightens the whole of my eyes and looks great when used under the eye brow arch. The darker colours apply smoothly and are really pigmented in colour. 

 

 

 

 

 VERDICT - At £7.99, this quad from L'Oreal is really expensive for what it is but that doesn't mean I don't love these eye shadows! I love the colours because they very pigmented, long lasting and suitable for both day and night. The quad comes with handy instructions for how to do an effortless smoky eye. I like the double ended brush which also is a little bit angled. I really love the highlighter and I do love how the shades compliment each other. This quad is perfect for anyone who wants a natural eye that looks glam at the same time. I think this a great set of eye shadows for beginners!

I would love to buy this quad again but it's just too expensive.
