Hello peeps,
I earlier got a quad from Faces which I really loved. That was more of a Smokey eye palette, while this is more of a festive one. I saw this online and it had those beautiful sparkling colours, so I got it to try out these shades. See how it looks on me!
Price: Rs 599

My Experience with Faces Glam On Color Perfect Eyeshadow 01 Captivate
Packaging: The Faces captivate eyeshadow quad comes in a circular compact container, in a basic black colour. The container has a mirror and a dual-ended brush too, so it can totally be an on-the-go palette. It closes with a click, so no scope of getting opened when carried along in a bag or a clutch. There are 4 quads from this range but the other palettes had very bright shades like blue, pink and orange which I would never apply in daily life. This palette looked very neutral and great for occasions. The price is also very affordable for the kind of shades and quality they provide.
Shades: “Captivate” quad contains 4 very beautiful shades, which are really apt for the festive season. It contains one brown, which is the darkest one yet not really dark like the ones that are there in the smoky eye palette. It is a nice shimmery brown, which can be used on the outer V. Then there is one warm gold shade which looks beautiful on its own and also with the other shades. Then the third one is a coppery brown shade, which is the most wearable one.And the fourth one is the prettiest rose gold shade ever.
Texture and pigmentation: The texture is smooth but it does cause some fall out while application. The shades are nicely pigmented and the metallic base makes it look even better. A perfect festive eye look can be created with this. It is a basic palette and will create a basic wearable look and not like the models on instagram or magazines.
Staying power: The eye looks stays put 6-7 hours, which is incredible at the price we pay. It will stay even more with a primer. Hence I feel this is a very good palette to try if you are a beginner and want to start with some safe and commonly wearable shades. They do not irritate the eyes and come off easily as well.

Will I Repurchase/Recommend Faces Glam On Color Perfect Eyeshadow 01 Captivate?
Yes, surely especially for this season. The shades are beautiful and this is a really good palette if you are a beginner.
Conclusion:
The range all together is okay because it has some weird shades which no one would actually wear. The only two palettes that are pretty wearable are already reviewed by me. I wish they had more neutral shades.
