This quad was on sale for $10-15, I'm not entirely sure now how much it was exactly since I checked back at Sephora and this particular palette is not available anymore and it wasn't showing up in my previously bought items too. It comes in a very simply packaged black cardboard palette that was bit disappointing since online it clearly look liked it was in a plastic case. Anyway, for the price, I really can't complain. It has 4 full sized eyeshadows that are really very pretty.
It has a metallic choco brown shade, a frosty champagne, a frosty peach and a metallic navy. They are adequately pigmented. I cannot compare their pigmentation to Urban Decays' which I believe is one of the brands who produces really pigmented eyeshadows. Finger swatches are really good but picking the shadows up with a brush creates a lot of fall outs and appears to be chalky. They are easy to blend out to the point where you can even make them very sheer, which I am not sure if it's a good or bad thing.
Over all I think this is a good palette and since I don't own any other Smashbox eyeshadows I really don't know if this is true to all Smashbox shadows. It is a nice quad though, great for traveling since the palette has a mirror too. I'll give this palette a 3 out of 5. I think that my Wet n Wild Trios are better than this - much better pigmentation and much more affordable.
