Avon's True Color Eyeshadow Quad in Romantic Mauves is a quad of eyeshadows that consist of four shades of eyeshadows in the mauvey-purple family. The naming of the quads in this Avon line describes the shades pretty well. This particular quad comes equipped with a very light pinkish-purple shade which can easily be used as a highlighter and then a warmer purple, followed by two darker plum shades. The quality of the shadows are quite impressive, however, the last shade, the darkest purple with red irredescent shimmers deviated greatly from the quality of the shadows in its family. Instead of being pigmented and smooth, this "fourth" shade felt dry and could not be picked up well on a brush or even on the finger. A lot of fallout results from this shade as well. On another note, I like the packaging of this line of eyeshadows (Chanel anyone?) and I appreciate the fact that they have a little diagram at the bottom of the compact showing suggesting the placement of the eyeshadows, which is great for beginners. Overall, because of its sturdy packaging and great shade combinations and for an inexpensive price, I do recommend this quad if you have easy access to it. Romanic Mauves is great for those with brown eyes.
