As you can probably see in the picture, the shadows are a bit stiff and powdery, which definitely affects the pigmentation. The white shade in the quad is also on the chalky side.

It will just take a bit longer and more product to build up the desired pigmentation. So, overll, is it my holy grail, hidden gem purple eyeshadow of the drugstore? Not really. But still something I see myself occasionally using.

I'm planning on doing a full review on this product very soon, so I won't say much now but I will say th
