New Mac Quad shadow palette!

Mac Quad Palette Review!

So the other day I was sent out by a friend to MAC to use my discount. Sounds lovely doesn’t it? I was only coming in for 2 items but left with 3. The third being the new MAC Quad Palette. It looks amazing!
The truth?



Not really.

I have the original palette so I decided to do a comparison, pros and cons of both. Starting with the old and ending with the new:

Original Palette
Pro’s: Clear Lid; Removable plastic; Can hold between 4-6 MAC eyeshadows; Snap closure.
Con’s: Snap closure sometimes breaks; Magnetic falls out if plastic is removed; Eyeshadows need magnets.

New Palette
Pro’s: Clear Lid; Magnetic closure; Holds ONLY 4 MAC eyeshadows; Sturdy; Plastic is magnetic.
Con’s: Magnetic closure can wear off; Will ONLY hold 4 MAC eyeshadows; If plastic is removed there is no magnet underneath; Impossible to take out eyeshadows once they’re in.

So there you have it folks!
It’s up to you now to decide if this will be on your next MAC shopping list.
