- I've included swatches of this palette (shadows and lips) as well as a photo of use of some of the shadows. [Please note that these swatches were done without a primer. I plan to add some more pictures using a primer to compare.]
- I purchased this palette off of Amazon. I think you can still also get it in Ulta stores and on ulta.com.
- I think the shadows have pretty good color payoff. A few of them could be a bit more pigmented and feel a bit chalky but all in all I think they're actually really good quality. There is a good mix of matte shades as well as shimmery satin shades.
- The lip products included in this palette, I'm not so crazy about. I don't personally like lip products that are in a pot, but that's just my preference. I'm favorably to lipsticks in a tube and lip glosses. The palette does come with lip and eye shadow applicators though so that helps. For anyone who doesn't really care much whether its in a tube or a pot, this shouldn't bother you much. As far as the quality of them, I think they're nice. They don't feel sticky on my lips and they go on very well both with a brush and your finger. There are a few shades that are more of a balm in my opinion, because you can't see the color payoff very well, but for the most part they show up nicely.
- All in all I'd give this palette an A- strictly because of the few shades of both eye shadows and lip product that could be more pigmented.
I like the colors on nude palette of Nyx. But for some reason I'm having second thoughts on the brand. I tried their lipstick before and it makes my lips chap. Not that I have a bad case of dry lips. ;)
ReplyDeleteThis is only the third thing of theirs I've owned. I bought it as an alternative for the Naked palette (and for the price it's okay but doesn't compare at all!) and the other two products I have came from my ipsy bags. I'll try their lip products soon and try to get something up and see if I have the same problem. Thanks for reading! <3
