These are similar to the Maybelline Smokey shadow quads, but they are less deep in color, though the placement is the same.
Left: 20 Velvet Crush
Right: 32 Lavender Fields
If you would like to try a more subtle smokey look, these are for you. I liked them a lot.
I also thought it would be fun to try colors between the quads or use some of the deep colors as liners or outer corners with other brands, but so far I haven't tried that.
The colors seem quite lush and buildable, though subtle.
Have you tried these?
These are very reasonably priced at ~$5 from Target (~$6.50 from Walgreen's), so it is definitely doable to try more than one. There are quite a few more colors than what I chose to choose from.

Hey thanks for stopping by Momfiles and thanks for the info! I can definitely afford this look!! I had someone send me a link via email and the make-up brands came with astronomical price tags!! Craziness!!!
I think these quads are some of the best buys around! They go on nicely and last all day.
Come back again!
