Ash, ash, baby.
I purchased this palette in Crystal Waters, and Ice Queen. The colors washed out on my skin and the darkest shade was still too light. The eyeshadow could not be applied on top of each other. The subsequent colors that i applies would just roll off my skin. Not to mention the creasing.
As far as color payoff, this palette is gorgeous. The purples are very rich and pigmented. I just wish that there were matte shades. Even though the shimmers in these palettes are very fine, I still would prefer one more matte. Another issue is that the shadow texture itself isn't very soft or creamy. Yes, the pigmentation is there, but it's not as creamy or buttery as cheaper eyehadows I own (such as NYX or Wet and Wild).

Bad pigmentation, Sparkles, OH LORD.
Usually, I'm not the world biggest sparkle-freak, especially in eye shadows. When I first saw this little guy, I was genuinely happy even with spotting a hint of sparkly/shimmery whatever in it. I like my neutral colors, And half my collection of makeup is full of neutrals. So when I first used the shadows with a eye shadow brush ( Mom's hand-me-down, thoroughly washed one) I was surprised at the amount of shimmer was sitting on my eye lid. SO. MUCH. The next time I tried it, This time with the stupid sponge applicator, All I saw was tiny specks of shimmer on my eye. Both times, Both brushes/applicators was HORRIBLE pigmentation. Primer was used both times. Why I didn't give a one star, Is because of the price, packaging, How layering SLIGHTLY helped but made it look like a cakey mess sometimes, and the color selection. Might buy in different shades, But not this one.
You can never go wrong with Cover Girl!
Half of my make-up collection is probably made up of these 4 color palettes from CoverGirl. They always know how to pair the right four colors together to create a well-pulled together look, from the brow bone highlight to the lower lash liner. Tropical Fusion has been my recent addiction!
Blues are beauty !
I found this 4 shadow kit (Crystal Waters) , sort of a waste. I only ended up using the pearly-white colour at the far right of the kit.. It stayed on well , and was not very expensive at all.
How do my eyes look ? Berry & Cream-licious ! :D
I loved using Berries and Cream ! For drug-store makeup , this was FANTASTIC ! My friend actually had it at her place , I tried it , and I loved it so much she gave me her extra one to use and review ! Affordable & Fashionable ! :)
Very Impressed!
This is definitely one of my favourite drugstore eyeshadow quads. The pigmentation is great, the colours are amazing and all work really well together. This quad also does a good job of making blue eyes stand out.
Quick!
I use this when I'm running late to something, mostly to school. Cover girl eyeshadows are not great if you want bright colors but as for more natural colors there great!
ive brought this quad countless times :) the vanilla-y color is my favorite highlight. EVER. and this is possibly the prettiest brown ive ever put on my lids. i fall more and more in love with it everytime! the colors go on so smooth and blend beautifully. they shift/move around a little, even with my primer sometimes :/ but not too too much and stay just as pretty as when you put them on :) perfect quad for an everyday neutral look if you dont wanna carry your naked pallets around ;)
