Covergirl Eye Enhancers Quad in Dream Eyes

Hey all,

This quad is a beauty guru and blogger favourite, and I have heard it spoken about time after time. So naturally, I had to try it for myself. I haven't tried very many Covergirl products before, as the brand has never really caught my attention. But saying that, I am glad that curiosity got the better of me and I picked this one up! 


What I Love 
- Highly pigmented - I was pleasantly surprised with the colour packed into this quad! 
- Well put together - all the shades compliment each other. 
- Creamy, smooth and easy to blend. 
- Long lasting with a primer. 
- Reasonably priced! 

What I Don't 
- I am not a fan of the packaging. I'm not sure why, but it doesn't do anything for me.

Where to Buy: Priceline, Target, Big W 

Price: $13.95

Swatches 


It is the perfect little quad for a simple smoky eye, is very versatile, and is a treat to take travelling! 

Have you tried any Covergirl eyeshadow quads? Which one is your favourite? 

Hope you all have a great night! xx

Australis Intensifeye Wet/Dry Eyeshadow Review

Hey all,


I stumbled across these gorgeous eyeshadow quads while they were on sale in Priceline, and I just had to buy a couple. The colours looked absolutely gorgeous, the packaging was elegant, and they were such a great price! (I picked them up for $11 each!).



I grabbed the True Blue and the You Beauty quads as I don't have that many blue and pink eyeshadow shades - I am trying to expand my horizons! True Blue is a collection of four wearable, striking shades ranging from light to dark, and You Beauty is a collection of girly, but sexy pinks! 

What I Love 
- Highly pigmented - especially for the price 
- Great cost! 
- Can be used wet or dry
- The shades in each quad work together perfectly: shades in each quad for a base shade, contour/crease and highlight
- Sleek, elegant packaging 
- Not tested on animals!! 

What I Am Not So Crazy About 
- Doesn't last so long without a primer 
- As most drugstore eyeshadow products, I wish they had more shades


Where you can buy it: Priceline, Target, Big W & Kmart 

Price: $13.95 AUD 


Swatches 


True Blue 




I am not talented at swatching on my left hand at all!

You Beauty 





Overall I love them! Sure, they aren't as pigmented or long lasting as some MAC eyeshadows that I have, but at $13.95 for four splendid shades I don't think that they need to be! I am definitely going to pick up the Choc a Block (brown/neutrals) and The Big Smoke (smoky eye) quads the next time I head to Priceline!


Hope you all have a great day! xx
