Look what I got!!!! My very first NYX Palette!!! I love this eyeshadow palette, and as soon as I got it, I couldn’t wait to play with it! I wanted to do more than just post a pic and swatches…I wanted to show several eye looks. Unfortunately each time I did either it was way too hot and I was sweaty or my camera just won’t pick up the color right or look right. It really is just time for me to get another camera…but back to the subject…I decided to go ahead and post just the pic and swatches for this first one and when it works out to where I can post a makeup look then I will do so because I love this palette. Especially the blues. I definitely will be wearing this palette the next time I do go out at night, because it’s not really a daytime palette. You can use the lavenders for day, but it’s really a designed for a nightime look. Hence the name. I’ve played with this palette several times and have used all of the colors. The only one I like the least is the yellow, but that may change if I used a NYX jumbo eye pencil or used it wet or with a pigment over it…the possibilities are endless! Not really, but you get the point!
The colors are very pigmented and I haven’t experienced much fallout. If any. My L’oreal HIP duos have a lot of fallout and I can’t stand that, so I was relieved to see that I don’t have that issue with these eyeshadows. The colors are very pretty. Some are matte some have shimmer, the dark purple on the bottom has flecks of sparkle in it, but it’s not overwhelming, I absolutely love that color! I posted the three different pics just so that you can get a good idea of what the colors really look like…as you see my camera translated it differently each time…smh…I’m gonna get me a new one hopefully by Christmas! The swatches are also no comparison to how they come off on my eyes. I use them with Urban Decay Primer Potion but I just know that with a NYX Jumbo eye pencil as a base, the colors would be even more vibrant! Especially a blue, like the one in Pacific, would really be great under the blues in this palette. I’m very pleased with it and happy that I got it. Can’t wait to get more!
