Maybelline Diamond Glow by Eyestudio-01 Copper Brown

Looking for rich earthy eyeshadows which are easy on the pocket then check out Maybelline Diamond Glow by Eyestudio-01 Copper Brown

This palette is a beautiful melange of 4 copper and gold shades.These are satin textured shadows with metallic & pearlescent finish.These have some amount of glitter but don't look overpoweringly glittery on the lids. The lightest shade works great as an all over lid color or can also be used as a highlighter if you plan to use the last 2 dark shades to create a look.The darkest shade is perfect for crease or to accentuate the outer V of your eyes.


The palette comes in a plastic casing with dual sponge tipped applicator. The case is enough to survive daily rough & tumble in your handbag, but is delicate for major traveling. The eyeshadow applicator is not of much use, though I use it to line the lower lashline with the sponge tip,so its not a total waste.There is no mirror in the palette,so it won't work great for on the go touch ups.

The swatches below are single swipe on (NC 45) bare skin

Overall Thoughts- Great palette for beginners or those looking for a everyday use earthy eyeshadows. The shades are versatile enough to create day-to-night looks. The powdery texture means you would need a good base to make these last on oily eyelids. Great value for money buy, go for it!

    1. Personally I'd reccommend Faces mineral eyeshadow trio in beechwood beautiful shimmery beige,gold and coffee shade for around 500 bucks far superior than chai latte and this eye studio quad for everyday wear, else I'd reccommend this over chai latte

  3. i do not like this entire range from maybelline because of the major fall outs.....i love chai latte because its more versatile than this..but its discontinued now *super sad*..

    Pooja if you ever spot a chai latte with good days left before expiry please let me know *pleading*

    1. Yes fallout is an issue but with a base it works fine,I'm not a huge fan of chai latte coz the pigmentation isn't that great.i'll keep my eyes pealed and keep a lookout for a chai latte quad
