This Palette is a Winner!

A friend of mine told me about NYX a few years ago. I tried a palette in hues of brown (with shimmer and matte finishes) and could not have been more pleased. It's hard to go wrong when working with these satiny, blendable colors, as they are chosen to work perfectly together. They are well-pigmented and last a very long time, especially with NYX's wonderful HD primer. I now own every palette available; there is little difference between these and the pricey brands, if any!

Great Palette

I discovered the Nyx line when I received a flyer from ULTA. I must say I am very impressed with this eye shadow palette. I have hazel eyes, and purples really make my eyes pop. This palette is half the price of Urban Decay, which I have purchased for years, and has the same pigmentation and staying power without a primer! I suggest you take a look at what NYX has to offer. After I purchased t...read morehis, I went trolling through Amazon and found a makeup kit for the eyes and face. Also, I couldn't resist and purchased the Dark Shadows Collection which is like a book that has eyeshadows and blush for the different looks of the 3 main characters from the movie. I am very very pleased with the quality of NYX, and I highly recommend it to all of you.

Pretty good!!

I have the 5 color shadow palette of the Caribbean Collection I Dream of Barbados. And I immediately liked it. I don't like wearing any eye shadows that make me look like a raccoon, or that make me look like I'm trying too hard. If you look in my cosmetics bag you will find that I love pink, lilac, purple and bronze colors for my eye shadows. I was happy to see that most of the colors in the palet...read morete were those! So I put it on and I loved the way they shimmer. Nothing too showy, and it doesn't attract too much attention. I love this palette, and the mirror is just a plus. My favorite shade that this palette has is the pink one, the one in the middle. My skin is kind of yellow/brownish, and it makes me eyes pop up! When I am done with this one I will definitely buy again. Love it!

I DREAM OF ARUBA

This was my first nyx palette. The colors are gorgeous and summery and really compliment my blue/green eyes. These are so soft and smooth and creamy! I learned exactly why everyone loves nyx shadows so much. For the price, you really can't beat the quality. The colors blend well, look great and don't transfer from my crease to my lid like some super soft shadow can. They last all day with a primer...read more and stay pretty pigmented throughout. A little goes a long way as they are pretty pigmented. I bought another one of these palettes for my friend and she loves it as well. I highly recommend these and any nyx palette.

Great colors, good blendability, but less pigmented.

I loved the color story in the palette, starting with a slightly shimmery tan, a slightly shimmery cream, a shimmery grey, a brown with olive tones, and a black. I love the blend-ability, but I felt they were lacking a little in the pigmentation department.

Love this line!

Make sure you use a primer with it though, because the color does not transfer as pigmented if not. They have many awesome shades, and I own probably half the line!

NYX 5 Color Shadow-I Dream of St John

If you want to do a smokey eye this is the palette to get. There is a white, silvery color, black, grey, charcoal. The lighter colors have a nice shimmer to them. When I put the black on I liked that it was very rich in color. I like the white color, perfect for the inner corner of the eyes to brighten and open up your eyes from the dark eye. Even if I don't do a smokey eye, I'd use the white, it ...read moregoes on nicely. All the colors blended well and I was happy with my smokey eye. The shadow also stayed put, so no touch up needed.

5 Color Palette

I have the Caribbean Collection I Dream of Barbados. I truly LOVE this set. The shadows are creamy, very pigmented and are in opaque, rich colors. I would purchase this line of palette in other colors.

Nice color pay off

These have a nice color payoff and are not as soft as their single shadows. Most of the colors are also either satin or matte which is great. The brighter colors can be hard to get a extreme color pay off but still work nicely
