CoverGirl Eye Enhancers 1 Kit Eyeshadow Purple Pop

CoverGirl Eye Enhancers 1 Kit Eyeshadow: Purple Pop
Normally I don't buy Covergirl makeup.  Most of their packaging looks cheap and there aren't a lot of their products that are that great.  With dollar off coupons though, its makes me want to look at the brand more because I know I won't be paying full price.  Covergirl's eye enhancers single eyeshadow in "Purple Pop" was one of the products I received a dollar off.  In search of a good purple eyeshadow, I basically said what the hell.  This color is a medium purple with a blue sheen.  When I swatched it on my hand I thought it was just alright.  When I finally applied it to my eye, I still thought it was alright.  It took awhile to place the color on my lid, so the pigmentation isn't the greatest.  It also didn't blend so nicely on my lid.  It's a pretty purple, but that's about it.
Where can I buy this?: Walmart, Target, Drugstores, also found online
What is the cost?: between $3 and $5
Would I recommend this?: NO

After swatching this product three separate times at the store, I finally decided I needed to purchase this liquid eyeliner.  The only thing that are setting me back was the $16 price tag.  I thought it might be possible to find a less expensive alternative, but nothing compared to this.  The color is an incredible blue with a touch of green and gold.  The staying power is amazing, on my hand it held up nearly three days!  The applicator I am not a huge fan of, though I never really am a fan of liquid eyeliner applicators.  Instead I substitute it for one of my own brushes. 
Where can I buy this?: Target stores, target.com
What is the cost?: $16 
Would I recommend this?: YES
