As someone who loves cosmetics and good brands at great prices when I came across this Revlon Colourstay 12 hour eyeshadow in 'sultry smoke' for £2.00 in T.J Hughes I was simply unable to resist! I love dark, sexy colours on my eyes (which these are) and Revlon I consider to be a decent brand. The Compact.... Black, plastic, recyclable. lift front cover up, oblong case with a see through plastic front and on the front tells me in white writing it's by Revlon. I can see my 4 colours through the 'window'. On the back tells me what it is and who it's by and promises ' Looks freshly applied for up to 12 hours', then lists the ingredients, tells me the ...  Read the complete review

I'm not brand-loyal and I'm always trying out different makeup brands and products, and when I saw this quad in Boots I couldn't resist giving it a go. Revlon is a brand which primarily consists of cosmetics, and you can find it in any local drugstore. Their products aren't too overpriced, most of the items are under £10 and so far I'm impressed with them! This is my first purchase from Revlon, this eyeshadow is from the 'Colorstay' range at Revlon and I purchased the shade 'Blushed Wines', which consists of 4 different shades that all have a pinkish undertone to them. You can also buy the quad in other colours, ranging from smokey to subtle colours. These neutral colour  Read the complete review

I am a bit of an eyeshadow-holic so when I saw these come in, I couldn't resist trying them out, I bought the shade "sultry smoke" which is the blue/grey version in the range. The colours themselves are very nice and perfect for the winter, the packaging is possibly a little unimaginative but that's just me being picky (I've always been like that with Revlon products, aside from some of their nail varnishes, I've always thought they could do more to make their products stand out), but at least you can see the colours clearly through the panel on the top which makes it easier to find, the applicator also isn't the best but then I always use my own brushes ...  Read the complete review

I'm not "brand loyal" but if I had to pick a favourite "drug-store make-up brand" it would be Revlon. The products generally do what they say on the tin, the packaging is attractive, convenient and sturdy, and they make a foundation shade pale enough for my skin. I bought a couple of the ColorStay eye-shadow quads a while back because I was trying to branch out from my typical "pale matte eye-shadow with lots of liner, an over-load of mascara and killer red lips" look. My first choice was Wildflower, a quad with a mint green, muted peachy orange, lilac and a taupe. My second was Coffee Bean, with a flesh tone, a pale taupe, a ...  Read the complete review

I have this quad in Sultry Smoke. I swapped it with a lady on Make Up Alley. I was quite excited about receiving it because I do love a smokey eye (as most people do!) The quad is tiny. I thought it would be quite large and was quite disappointed at the size of it. I use it a lot anyway, regardless of the size. Sultry Smoke is all the colours you'd need to create a dramatic smokey eye. There's a black, a dark grey, a dark blue and a very light purple. The formula is very good. There isn't any fall out when applying it which is really good for a black eyeshadow. The pigmentation is the surprising part. I thought for a low end brand, that ...  Read the complete review
