Estee Lauder Black Smoke Quad What I love about the Estee Lauder Black Smoke Eye Shadow Quad:

IMBB One Lakh Prize Money Fashion Contest

  • The completeness of the quad. A thoughtful inclusion of mattes, shimmers and satin finishes all in one quad. Very versatile.
  • The texture of the eyeshadows is extremely fine and soft. It’s in fact *perfect*. The shimmery black is not chunky-glittery, the matte is soft and satin gray is true to its texture. :yes:
  • The shadows blend in like a dream.
  • The applicators that come along are useful. There’s is a little blending brush that comes along is soft and fine, the pointed smudge is great for lining the lower lash line and the rest two sponge applicators are soft. Although I mostly use my brushes but the applicators that come along can also be used.
  • The eye shadows stay on fresh, last all day long and do not crease. The colours don’t even fade until you really remove them.
  • The eye shadows are pigmented .
  • There  is a little or no fall out during application.
  • The mirror is decent sized to work with.
  • The packaging is classy.
  • The eye shadows come off easily with a makeup cleanser.

but I guess I’ll stay away for this just coz of the price…2K for an eye-shadow quad….really cant afford it…. :cry: :cry:

BTW what other shades do they have this quad in?

You may buy it anytime HD. It’s going to be a part of their permanent line. Here are rest of the shades:

Check out Amber Honey, Truffle and blue Smoke. They look gorgeous.
But I am not sure which ones are available in India.
