    Wow... I’m so glad that you bit the bullet with this eyeshadow quads! What a shame, they totally miss an amazing opportunity here, they could’ve done a transparent/white based duo chrome with a blue or green shift, a cool metallic and two mattes (a dark and a mid tone) and that would make a perfect quad for me. I’ve had some palettes from them that had those kind of shades, so I know they can make them! Somehow you still managed to make it work and look awesome! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

    I own 3 palletes from Makeup Revolution. One older, the Iconic 3, a Naked 3 "dupe". It is really nice and cool toned which I love. The only drawback is the lasting power of the shadows, but I'm oily. The next one is the best, the Soph x palette, a collaboration with Sophdoeslife. The third is one of the Reloaded series, really great for the price, simple packaging. I've also tried the concealer, I finished it but didn't like it that much. They're coming out with new stuff all the time to the point I'm not excited with their new releases... Thank you Angie for this in depth review as I'm sure many people were drawn to these palettes for their packaging!

    The whole Revolution banner of products seem so hit and miss and from one extreme to the other! Its so bizzare.
    From the sticker I thought we were going to have another Miss Piggy moment 🤣 Im so glad it was a great shade match for you. I thought the "gems" etc were encased not all bumpy on the top. The offensive smell is probably the industrial strength glue used to hold everything on. How stupid!! Who approved that design?!!

      The sticker thing is weird, but like she said, at least their shade matching chart online is accurate. I have really fair skin with cool undertones and never found a better shade match (I use their foundation drops in F4). I have a feeling they used the same packaging as Tarte did for their Foil Finger Palette, and the ingredients are the same as the Tarte winter wonderglam luxe eye palette, except Tarte added the obligatory Kaolin and Topheral at the very end so they can call it 'Natural' 🤣. I hope people let them know if the glue is an issue because they would definitely fix that.

The outside glue and the shadows themselves smell so strongly of burning plastic and superglue. I could handle the smell if the shadow performed correctly, but unfortunately they are also trash.

    Hi Angie, did you know that Makeup Revolution makes a dupe for the Hourglass Ambient Lighting palette (the one all the Beauty Guru's own). It's called the Radiance palette and it's really lovely. They have another one called The Beyond Radiance palette that has the more pinky toned Ambient lighting powders.

    😲🛑🛑🛑 I think the eyeshadow quads are meant to dupe Tarte's foil finger face quads, and the packaging is very similar to their original Foil Finger Palette. What's even more interesting is the Revolution Pro Quads have near identical ingredients to Tarte's Winter Wonderglam Luxe eye palette (LE)! They aren't in the exact same order, but the only other difference is Tarte lists Vitamin E and Kaolin right at the end. I have a feeling Tarte outsourced that palette to the same facility that manufacturers for Revolution. I actually LOVE the blue side and the foundation looks beautiful!

    I think Revolution and their whole umbrella of companies don't put much stock into the stickers on their packaging. Possibly because they're primarily a British brand, and like Sweden we have testers for all makeup from the cheapest to the most luxury.
    I would have thought they'd address just how off they are when Revolution started taking over the world, but then I'd have thought they'd address their formula inconsistencies pretty quick smart too but hey. Why change dodgy, inconsistent formulas and packaging when you can save money by doing neither and selling a ton anyway xAndyx

    I’ve never bought from makeup revolution but I feel like I hear more negative reviews than good ones so I stay away from it. None of their things really pull me in either.
    On a different note about quads. Have you seen the new alien cosmetics quads? They have 4 new ones coming out and the color stories are so gorgeous and creative, very well thought out looking. I like their quality and am definitely planning on picking one or two of them up
    Hope you are safe & doing well. Much love 🤍🤍

    I have a few things, all different brands, that smell like an chemically dead fish. Idk what it is but one of the eyeshadow palettes I couldn’t even stand to use because it stunk so bad.
