I ordered the shadow quad too. I'm always an easy sell on eyeshadows. I like that they are talc-free. I hope the colors are flattering and truly do enhance eye color. I'm so weary of shades of brown.
Oh, and I love Carmindy's highlighter. I have extra, which is good considering her products have disappeared off QVC's site.

@CANDLEQUEEN Many powder highlighters have too much "sparkle", leave a white cast or just sit on top of the skin near the eye area which accentuates wrinkles. A cream highlighter, however, adds natural moisture (being a cream) and doesn't settle into lines. BTW, any highlighter should be applied just above blush and not near the crowsfeet area.
@Shanus I actually remember years ago purchasing a Smashbox Cream highlighter that I loved! Don't know what happened to it now, this was back when Holly Mordini was representing the line on QVC....

I use the iT Hello Light highlighter. I prefer the one that comes in a tube like a giant lipstick tube. I just tap it on rather than swipe it. I go from the center of the apples of my cheeks (because that is where you always see natural highlight on a younger person) to just past center of my eye. I don't have crows feet, but I still don't go that far. I also use a brush to apply it underneath my eyebrows. I do not use highlighter anywhere on my nose since I would prefer that attribute would just disappear.

I decided to try the foundation and concealer, along with blush and eye shadow and lip balm. I have been looking for a new makeup with a more casual look, and this is not it!
I have dry skin but the foundation and concealer felt heavy and did not cover much. I felt like I was wearing a ton of makeup, even though I wasn't, and it was tacky to the touch.
Eye shadow does not have much color payoff.
I thought the lip balm didn't give much color but was very moisturising.
It seems like people really love this stuff but I sent it back and will keep searching.
(Just my opinion, anyway!)

Thanks for the foundation review, @fireflygirl . I have been so tempted.

I enjoyed her show and was tempted, but I didn't order. The last time they had a make-up artist, not Carmindy, I bought several items, and then she ghosted. They don't seem to hang around long.
