Essence Quattro Eyeshadow in Over the Taupe Review

Martha Ağustos 02, 2021

Hey everyone I hope you are all well

Todays review is an over due one to be honest as i have has this little palette of joy for a good month now. I actually posted up a picture on my Facebook Page last week of a look i done with this palette just this palette alone and quite a few of you liked it well this my beauties is the palette from Essence i used. I think anyone loves a nice neutral look or even a nice neutral palette they can use on an everyday basis. Well this palette here is ideal

the Essence Quattro Eyeshadow Palette in "Over the Taupe" (cute name)

This only cost me €3.49 which is super cheap for 4 shades. I must admit i was unsure about the pigmentation because the worst thing was that there was no samples to swatch before buying it so i had to take the risk and that is why i only bought one. To my recollection i think there is 4 different shades of these palettes.

The packaging on this is actually ok for the price but i can imagine if you are not careful the lid can easily break because its not exactly sturdy but its not too loose either. As i said above you are getting 4 different shades

The first shade is perfect for the brow bone or blending out any harsh lines - this is a lovely cream slightly frost finish its a little lighter than my skin tone but does nothing for the inner corner.

The second shade is a nice greyish taupe shade this is perfect for the lid its bright enough to make your eyes look bright and awake.

The third shade is more of a medium taupe with a little shimmer to it this is perfect for the crease for a bit of definition

Lastly is the forth shade with is obviously a dark almost blackish taupe with a slight bit of gold shimmer to it which is perfect for the outer V of the eye perfect for that smokey effect and even perfect for a light eyeliner if you didnt want to use a strong one :) :)

These swatches are very pigmented which was a huge shock to me to be honest but a pleasant shock might i add and the swatches are made with no primer underneath just to show how good this palette actually is. I do advise if you use this palette to use with a primer or a good eyeshadow base and they will last all day long. I love using this for a day time smokey look which would be light but noticeable. I thin for the price this is definitely worth getting and i am definitely going to try more of these in different shades :) :)
