  3. Hey I have the same Maybelline Quad as well. Pity the Emerald Isle is not available any more 😦
    But I would differ, in terms of quality Lakme is better anyway. But then, we all have our own opinion 🙂

  4. @cookdookoo-they ARE more pigmented..!!Even i feel so..!

    @rakshanda-i think they are too soft though..!

    @nivedita-i know..! But i hate the fact that the colors in the quad do not go together and the lakme ones have too much fall out and they crease like crazy and i prefer my shadows to be more hard because i don't want them to break or anything..and the greatest reason why i love it because the Maybelline Quads are COMPLETE..because they have all the required shades for a look in it..!
