Here's the e/s 'quattro' that I bought yesterday. It's the 'Violet Night' set of shades. Looks pretty in the packaging, and it even looked nice when I tested some on my hand. Can you spot the amateur??!! :oP
Anyhoo, I thought I'd try it out this morning - the colours aren't overly vibrant so I figured it was okay for work. Apart from a bit of glittery fallout on my cheeks (I'd taken precautions but obviously it wanted to go a-roaming regardless), it seemed to last until midday okay.
Then.....as if by un-magic, at around half two I gazed into the mirror to see..umm....not very much. Now, I used a primer underneath (MAC) but clearly I should've opted for super-glue or somet. This is what it looked like a couple of hours ago:
You can see my eyelid. But where's the colour gone?!! It wasn't even a hard day at the office. I'm just glad GOSH make better eyeliners than they do shadows. Maybe it's beacuse I'm brown-skinned but hey, at least I know now. *pushes it to the bottom of the make-up pile and tries to forget about it*
*cough*
Eyeshadow? What eyeshadow? I didn't buy no eyeshadow!! :o)
I hate it when that happens.. personally I do believe 'less is more' when it comes to make up, but hello, one deserves their money's worth. I mean, imagine if a really hot guy visited the office in the afternoon, one would expect them to be dazzled by your eyes... although, your eyes are bedazzling enough to woo him without eyeshadow even ;)
ReplyDeletelol!!! Loved that post! I just got a gosh quad but i havent tried it yet. After what you said I shall proceed with caution!
ReplyDeleteHello! :o) I'm going to try using the quad again tomorrow - maybe a bit more primer underneath? Not sure....such a shame because the colours are lovely but they just don't show up *sigh* Let me know how you get on :o)
