Marcelle Winter Trend 2010 Review and Look

My local Shoppers Drug Mart has conveniently placed the toothpaste aisle facing the cosmetics, so I couldn't help but take a detour by the Marcelle display. Their new Graphic Eye Shadow Quads are really lovely in colour and texture. I chose "Dimensional Mauve" to compliment my brown eyes.

After Swatching

The iridescence on the top layer disappears after the first use, but the colours underneath still have a lot of shimmer to them. In fact, I find the top layer a little self-sabotaging because the colours underneath are so much richer and more pigmented than the overlay.

A little bit of each colour goes a long way. If you want a more sheer application for everyday, I would suggest using a fluffier brush. I did experience a little bit of fallout with the the two darker colours, but it wasn't anything drastic or unfixable.
