Thank you so much Chickadvisor and Maybelline for giving me the chance to review this product!
a) How was your overall experience using this product?
I absolutely love how sparkly and shiny it is, i've always been a fan of shiny makeup so this product fits my style perfectly. The color goes on well but it doesn't stay on for long, so you'll have to bring the palette with you for touch ups. the good thing about that is it doesn't take a lot of effort to remove afterwards, just face wash and water is enough to remove it, no make up remover required.

b) What kind of colour result did you achieve?
The colors blend nicely so i got a nice subtle and soft look, very natural. this product gives just enough color to brightens my eyes and keep it natural.

c) How would you describe the look you created? (Eg. dramatic, romantic, subtle, etc)
I tried the dramatic once, but it didn't suit me. So I stuck with subtle for the rest of the time i used this product

d) Did anyone comment on or compliment your new look?
yes! my friend complimented me on how bright my eyes were, thanks to this new shiny eyeshadow!

e) Which palettes did you test?
I tested the "green with envy" and "Taupe Temptress", which are both very good choices!

Overall, i'm extremely happy with the results i achieved from this product
i'll be very sad when it runs out and i'll definitely buy more!

Thanks again Chickadvisor and Maybelline!

First of all, I would like to extend my thanks to Maybelline and ChickAdvisor for allowing me to try this product! I would also like to thank both companies for sending me coupons for Maybelline New York Eye Studio Eyeshadow.

I do not wear eyeshadow on a regular basis. I find that most eyeshadows are hard to apply and do not stay on throughout the day. However, Maybelline New York Eye Studio Eyeshadow is the best quality eyeshadow I have ever used. This eyeshadow was very easy to apply, as the product came with slender applicator brushes. I was amazed with how well the product stayed on, even withstanding a nap! I achieved a desirable colour result, which was subtle yet complimenting.

If you use eyeshadow on a regular basis, or if you want a nice eyeshadow for special occasions, I would highly recommend Maybelline New York Eye Studio Eyeshadow.

I also had the opportunity to be part of this product tester's club review!! These are the questions we had to answer:

a) How was your overall experience using this product?

I wear glasses and when I saw all that shimmer, I got scared...But I actually love them!! I found that they actually made my eyes look brighter: I have tired eyes that needed a major pick-me-up. I do have oily lids( I do not wear primer) and did find it to crease(like all the others) after a couple of hours. I also did spot a couple of glitters on my face during the day but maybe I had put on a bit too much. I love the velvety feeling upon application like others have mentioned and find it to be exactly the same as Smashbox's. If you absolutely hate shimmer, stay away from this thought. But I do recommend that you try it.

Next color I want to try? The blue/ turquoise one (picture above!!)

b) What kind of color result did you achieve?

answer: I tried wearing each palettes at a time on the first 2 days. But since I didn't really go anywhere but my classes(university) and downtown (to shop) I mostly used the palest shades. I even went back to my Smashbox eyeshadows (which I looove) for a day and found the colors to look dull on me compared to these babies!!

c) How would you describe the look you created? (Eg. dramatic, romantic, subtle, etc)

I went for a more romantic/subtle look mostly (since I wore it mainly for daywear)

d) Did anyone comment on or compliment your new look?"

answer: I did not see any of my friends since I got the quads. My boyfriend made no comments(as usual...) on my makeup.

e) Which palettes did you test?

answer: I tested the "Taupe Temptress" and "Green with envy" palettes.

I was thrilled to be selected as one of the product testers for Maybelline's new Eye Studio eyeshadow. I was sent the "Taupe Temptress" and "Green with Envy" pallets. I did some looking around on the internet to see how much it costs in stores and what Maybelline claims about this eyeshadow. From what I could find on price is that it costs around $7.49 to $9.99. Maybelline introduces the set on their webpage - http://www.maybellinenewyork.ca/caeng/products/eyes/shadows/l29l30l46l216l2884.htm

I found their claims on texture and luminosity to be accurate. The texture is very silky feeling - not caky at all, no matter how many layers. Even after wearing this eyeshadow all day, it still appeared smooth and 'luminous,' not creasing or fading.

I was initially nervous about how sparkly it looked. However, once on, it didn't appear to be nearly as sparkly as I had initially thought it would. I was happy with this as I do not like sparkly as much as I would prefer shimmer.

As to how dramatic this eyeshadow is, I found it took a lot of layering to get the deeper shades of the colors. The plus side to this is that it can be worn as a day look with a thin layer, and an evening look with a few extra layers of shadow.

The price I think is maybe a little high for a drugstore shadow, but I do admit it is one of the better shadows I have tried.

I recieved this product from the Product Review Club and I am very thankful that I was chosen!! I recieved two palettes: Pink Persuasion and Green With Envy.
My overall experience was very good! I usually wear MAC makeup and this is very comparable in the colour brightness, colour blendability, and silky smooth feel. The colour was very true to what was on the pallate and the dark colours lived up to their intensity, I was very impressed. The Pink Persuasion creates a soft, romantic look and the Green With Envy creates a look fit for going out to a nightclub or bar. My friends commented me on my new eye shadows and wanted to try them
I would reccomend this to anyone who likes smooth, silky eyeshadows with a bit of sparkle!

I received this product from the product review club. I received the "taupe temptress" palette, and the "spirited seas" palette. Overall these palettes are beautiful I love how each colour in each palette compliment each other. One can easily achieve the look they are going for with just using one palette.

I am of a tan complexion and I found that the color payoff was not bad. I had to use repeatedly use my brush to achieve the pigmentation that I desired. The textures of these eye shadows are amazing, it is like touching velvet. One thing that I do caution other users are that these are "lustre finishes", meaning they have A LOT of sparkles. Hence you will get fall out and if you careful with your application you can end up looking like a disco ball. Also I would caution those who consider themselves "older", as the sparkles may go into your fine lines and wrinkles and possibly cause a "aging look". Another thing I want to add is that these shadows blend beautifully, its almost as like your are working with cream shadows.

I was able to create a more of a "romantic" type of look with these eye shadows. Because the pigmentation on my skin is not that strong. So for me I was able to create a soft but sexy look for everyday. Which a did receive A LOT of compliments on. I attempted to create a more dramatic smoky look, but was unsuccessful because of the mess it makes with all the glitter fall out.

Overall I would recommend these shadows for those who are beginners who want to get into more of a colourful look but don't want to be too dramatic.

I recently received two palettes to review, and I got "Taupe Temptress" and "Green with Envy".

When I first tried this product, I noticed shimmer and sparkles. A lot of them. So if you're not inclined to that, I would suggest you stay far away from this eyeshadow. The application was silky smooth, but the colors were not as pigmented as I would have expected, although it's possible to work at building them up to increase the color. In addition, the slightest rub can easily take off the colors, so I would recommend a primer.

I wore this out for about 7 hours, and the sparkles, which I had thought were impossible to miss, were overlooked by my friends from even a short distance and the shadow appeared matte. I wore it without a primer, and, likely due to my oily skin, there was nearly nothing left of the shadow except for what had creased into my eyelids.

Overall, I really like the colors that were paired together in the quads and how the sparkles didn't come loose from the product (and into my eye), but I am a little iffy about the price, which is about $10 at London Drugs.

Went looking for a new eye shadow & got this one in the gold/brown shades which I have heard really play up blue eyes. Wow! I now have a new favorite! I work night shifts & even at four in the morning it really makes my eyes pop & I don't look half as tired as I feel.

Fortunately, i was able to receive this product to review. the best part? i was sent the palette that i wanted to purchase! i received palette #80 - Pink Persuasion

overall, the product is layed out in a way so you can use it left to right; lightest to darkest. which is great especially for those who are first timers to eyeshadow.

as for the colour, i noticed that it's not as pigmented as the Maybelline Expert Wear Eyeshadows, nor was it as smooth. it could possible be due to the sparkles in the EyeStudio shadows. however, i used MAC Mixing Medium on my other lid before applying the shadow and it made the colour more pigmented. so i would recommend using some sort of eye primer with it to get the full colour.

originally, i wanted to do a dramatic look. but since the colours weren't as pigmented as i hoped it to be, it came out very subtle and romantic like. perfect for bridal makeup.

a few of my classmates commented on my makeup and how it's a nice subtle look. but i never wear eyeshadow to school, so it's pretty new to them.

what i love the most about this palette is that you can use the black as a eye liner, so it's a all-in-pne compact!
