I don't know about promoting this line but I'm glad I helped you make a decision about the quad. When I first saw it I was pretty bleh about it too but after playing I'm finding that it'll be great to have around. It's perfect for a day2nite look!

Here's my placement...hopefully it will all make sense:
Bare Study Paint Pot as base from lashline to brow
Next to Nothing: I used this as a brow highlight but I did mucho blending of it above the crease into Satin Taupe and Smoking, along my tear duct and under my lower lashline into Orpheus.
Showstopper: I used it on the outer quarter of my lid and made a rather harsh but thin line into my crease to deepen/define it.
Smoking: I used this on my outer V and blended it into Showstopper.
Satin Taupe: I applied this color last so that it would sit over the blended Showstopper and Smoking. It's on about 3/4 of my lid and then I blended it into Showstopper above the crease line.
I lined my upper and lower waterlines with Feline and used Orpheus below my lower lash line.

HTH!

I love your looks. So jealous of your lips!!
I'm debating the Smoking Eyes Quad. I feel like I can get dupes in the permanent collection? What do you think?

Thanks! I got my lips from my momma haha.

Anyways, I think the perm collection can offer some pretty good dupes. I was planning on doing a swatch comparison in a lil bit. If you don't have anything similar then i think the buying the quad can offer some savings rather than buying 4 pans/pots.
