Swatches: New Avon True Color Eyeshadow Quads

In campaign 19 Avon is relaunching their True Color eyeshadow line with new eyeshadow quads, duos, and singles. In general, I am really impressed with the new formula! Most of the colors I've tried have been really well pigmented, and blended well. I am going to post swatches of the eyeshadow quads that I have tried so far below. I'm also going to list the color names for each quad since some of these shades are also available as singles as well.

Purple Pop is the brightest and trendiest of the purple quads that Avon offers. All of the colors in this quad have a shimmery finish. Here are the colors for this quad:
1. Lavender is a pale shimmery lavender. Great pigmentation and blends well.
2. Pink Berry is a medium shimmery pink. This one had the lightest pigmentation, but built up easily.
3. Purple Flip is a lavender with a pinkish sheen to it. Good pigmentation and blending.
4. Vibrant Violet is a shimmery deep violet. This one is a little patchy but blends out well.

Metal Eyes has 4 neutral metallic and glittery shades. Pigmentation and blending are great with all of these shades.
1. Snowglobe is shimmery white.
2. Gold is a shimmery deep yellow gold.
3. Bronze Luster is a shimmery deep brown with fine bronze glitter throughout.
4. Night Star is a shimmery warm charcoal grey with lots of fine silver and gold glitter.

Emerald Cut is a warm/neutral green palette. All four colors have a shimmery to glittery finish.
1. Shimmering Beige is a shimmery warm ivory. Great pigmentation and blendability.
2. Softened Peach is a warm shimmery peach with fine golden glitter. this one goes on a little sheer but builds up easily.
3. Green Metal is a shimmery khaki green with a slight golden sheen. Good pigmentation and blends very well.
4. Blackened Emerald is a deep shimmery green. The pigmentation is a little patchy with this one, but it builds up very easily and blends out very well.

Chocolate Sensation is one of the new neutral quads. This one is great for doing a brown smokey eye.
1. Shimmering Beige is a shimmery warm ivory. Great pigmentation and blendability.
2. Milk Chocolate is a shimmery neutral brown. Great pigmentation and blendability.
3. Truffle is a shimmery warm brown. Great pigmentation and blendability.
4. Black Brown is a matte deep brown. This one had the least pigmentation but it builds up easily and blends well.

  1. I think so far that while the shades in these quads are lovely, including the three quads I have, the darkest shade in each palette leaves something to be desired in terms of pigmentation and application. Great swatches and descriptions as usual, Jo!
