Today I have swatches of two quad sets from Colour Pop Cosmetics.

First I will share the "Best Betches" eyeshadow set.

On The Rocks - Is described as a vibrant true bronze with gold and violet glitter. I was very hesitant to get this color because with so many neutral palette releases I thought this one wouldn't have anything unique enough to write home about but, this color is GORGEOUS! It's a nice true bronze with a bronze shimmer to it but then it also has gold and violet glitter running through it to give it so much more of a pop. since I fell in Love with this color so much I think eventually i'm going to collect the rest of the neutrals.

Liberty - Is described as an intense ultra-metallic true silver. This eyeshadow is literally like putting silver paint on your eyes lol. You can tap this eyeshadow and swatch it on your skin and it would still be like real melted silver. I love how intense this eyeshadow is! I own a lot of silver eyeshadow (and I mean A LOT lol) but this one for sure is the most unique.

I Heart this - Is described as a cool-toned silvery taupe with multi-coloured glitter. I see this color as more of a champange/beige with light gold glitter running through it. This is one of my favorite eyeshadows from Colourpop. It's flattering on every skin tone and can be worn very lightly for a wash of color/sparkle or intense for a dramatic party look. I would say if you want a color to start with from Colourpop this is one you must have!

(also I didn't photograph this one open because I already own this color and I'm considering doing a giveaway with this eyeshadow and maybe a few other goodies)

BAMF - Is described as a soft gunmetal with multi colored glitter finished with a violet silver and periwinkle multi-dimensional metallic finish. Okay so these tye dye eyeshadows are EVERYTHING! the mix of the three eyeshadows placed in the pot make such a gorgeous complex color. BAMF ends up having a black base because of the blue color but looks more purple. Then with the silver all together the finish has blue, purple and silver glitter in the eyeshadow. I adore this color I wish it was sold individually because I could see a lot more people going for this color. This is the only eyeshadow in the Best Betches set that is NOT sold on the permanent line for Colourpop.

All together I Like this set I think the eyeshaows can be used as duos as well as using all four for a makeup look. If you are a fan of just one of the colors all except BAMF are sold alone so you don't have to get this set if you aren't into all of the colors. I think I would have liked this set more if it had more than just one Limited color but, overall all of the colors are super pigmented they blend out perfectly and are very unique.

My final rating on this set is a 10/10

The Next eyeshadow set I have swatches of is the Megan Naik quad.

Onai - Is described as a creamy white with blue violet opalescent duo chrome. This eyeshadow leans more on the cream side vs white to me which, I persoanlly like more and I would say it has more of a slight pink duo chrome vs the blue violet duo chrome which again, I like more especially for the colors that go along with this one in the set. It had really nice pigmentation and would be a really gorgeous brow bone or inner eye highlight.

Amira - Is described as a antique gilded gold with multi- coloured and multi- dimensional glitter. I LOVE this color it's my favorite in the entire set. If it didn't have the pink and gold glitter throughout it, it would just be a regular antique gold but, adding those glitters throughout it makes it so much more unqie. I tried my hardest to photograph the glitter but it's literally impossible.

Lectra - Is described as a deepened burgundy with pink violet glitter. Another stunning color Colourpop has created. I adore what they do with burgundy eyeshadows, It makes me want to use them a lot more than I have in the past. Lectra has more of a matte base to it with pink glitter running throughout it. I blended this one out to see how well the glitter stood and if there would be any loss of the complexity the glitter brings to the eyeshadow and it doesn't the glitter stays put. This is the main reason why I like Onai better as having a more slight pink duo chrome vs a purple because in my opinion I think it is much more flattering to Lectra and the overall finish you would get if you were to use all four eyeshadows in this set on the eyes.

Farah - Is described as a deep brown. I agree, it is a deep chocolate brown. This eyeshadow really pulls the rest in the set together perfectly it adds more of that smoky element to the overall look. And I think if you just wanted to use one of the other colors with this one alone it would still look stunning.

Overall I think this set is fantastic and you could use all four colors without having to reach for another palette to add something extra or transition with. I also think this is a pretty quad to create a elegant holiday look.

My final rating: 10/10
