Today's review is on the Maybelline Eye Studio Shadow quad in "Autumn Dream". This was a LIMITED EDITION quad, so I'm not sure if you can still get your hands on it, however I have seen it at some local Walgreen's stores alongside some other limited edition quads. These quads retail around $4.99 and this particular quad features a champagne-sparkle shade, a jewel tone purple, a jewel tone green and a navy. After using the quad at least 4 times since purchase, I can say that the colors together wear beautifully! The shades give you that dark smoky look from far away, but getting up close, you can actually see the colors and how they work together. Here are some swatches of the shades:

(With Primer)
As you can see, without using a primer, the shadows can be a tad bit dry and powdery, but over the top of a primer they are stunning on the eyes! I definitely recommend picking up this quad if you are lucky enough to see it in the stores!
(The finished look: I used the champagne color in the inner corner and as a brow highlight. Then went in with the green all over the lid. I applied the navy in the outer corner and worked it a bit into the crease, and then applied the purple in and above the crease.)
