Here is another Avon item I picked up recently. I picked up the True Color Eyeshadow Quad in Mocha Latte.
(swatches clockwise from lower left)
The colors and textures in the quad are as follows:
- light peach - Satin finish with underwhelming payoff. It tended to be powdery. True to pan.
- Medium dark brown - Matte finish. Super soft and buttery. Great payoff. Cool medium brown. True to pan.
- Dark Brown - Matte. Super soft and buttery. Great payoff. Cool dark brown. True to pan.
- Taupe - Metallic finish. Coppery pinky brown, not at all taupe. Not true to pan.
I picked the quad up on sale for $5.99, which is cheaper than a lot of drugstore palettes. Avon's distribution is a bit of a pain in this day and age. I don't have an "Avon Lady". I used their website and ended up having to pay shipping, which I hate.
For the price, this is a really nice palette. The shadows aren't fantastic, but they're good. And the packaging is sturdy, especially at this price point.
Overall: 8/10
