Can you believe this beautiful eye quad was just $1.25? I found this LA Colors palette at Dollar Tree and was immediately drawn to its everyday, basic color story featuring three mattes and one shimmer - perfect for creating versatile looks!

Building the Base with Warm Browns
After prepping my lids with Milani eye primer, I started with that soft warm brown shade using my crease brush. I worked it back and forth in the crease and even brought it up above the crease to create some beautiful lift and dimension.

That Deep Color Payoff!
Wow - this deep color delivers exactly what you see in the pan! The pigment is incredible for a dollar store find. I carefully patted it onto my lid, then flipped my brush to work some of that same product into the crease for a seamless, blended look.

Shimmer That Shines
Time for the shimmer! Using a smaller brush, I patted the shimmer shade onto the inner half of my lid, and it performed beautifully. I got pigment right away without having to build it up - such a pleasant surprise at this price point!

Finishing Touches Complete the Look
To complete the eye look, I used the darkest shade to smudge along my lower lash line, adding depth and definition. Then it was time for mascara and lips to pull everything together into a polished, everyday makeup look.
