Eyeshadow : Nyx Sexy Blue Eyes

I admit it, I am not a big fan of eyeshadows. I feel like, when I applied it on my eyelids, it will only exaggerate my look. But, upon discovering the blogging world, it changes everything. I learned to love colorful eyeshadows and started to wear it nowadays.

But since I am a snob when it comes to expensive makeup, last June, Makeup Suite had a blog sale, and I am very glad to find affordable pre-loved makeup. And it's my first time to have an eyeshadow palette from Nyx. And today I am going to show to you the NYX SEXY BLUE EYES EYESHADOW PALETTE.


COST : P200.00
WHERE : MAKEUP SUITE
CONDITION : PRE-LOVED

 It came up with a sturdy black palette with approximately 5 inches long.

 On the back part of the palette, you can see the information, ingredients and manufacturing details of the product.

 It is distributed by NYX Los Angeles California U.S.A

HOW IT LOOKS LIKE INSIDE:
navy blue, jeans blue, deep blue, light blue, silver-beige, orange, copper red, taupe, dark gold.
  This photo was taken under natural lighting without flash.

 This photo was taken with flash.

As you can see, it still contains a lot of product. When I bought this from Makeup Suite last June, parang 3% of the product has been used palang. 

And after 3 months, I still have 70-80 % of the product left. It goes to show, that a little goes a long way with this eyeshadows.


 It contains 10 shimmery (not glittery) eyeshadows.



SWATCH:
I took different pictures in different lighting for you to see it well.
WITH LOW FLASH.

WITHOUR FLASH, TEXTURIZED VERSION.
 On this shot, the eyeshadows may look too shimmery, but it isn't actually. It's not too shimmery not matte. Just in between.

WITHOUT FLASH, NATURAL LIGHTING

WITHOUT FLASH, DIM LIGHTING

WITH FLASH.
  CLOSER VIEW:

 The number 9 e/s is a great dupe for Urban Decay's SMOG.


 Pretty Things:
Cheap
(got this as pre-loved)

No weird scent
Easy to blend
A little goes a long way
 Contains a lot of product
The palette has a wide mirror
 May last 1-2 years (depends on usage)
The colors are very versatile you can come up with different color combination unlike the other palette from For your eyes only collection

Ugly Truth:
It has fallout
The applicator is useless
E/s number 7 and 9 almost looks like the same
The palette is prone to scratches and finger prints

But all in all, I really love this eyeshadow. I can use this during special occasions.  It has a lot of colors and I can come up with different look. It's easy to blend even with fingers. I do recommend this to everyone!

These are some of the pictures wering Nyx Sexy Blue eyes e/s:
Using e/s no. 6 and 7

Combination of e/s 1,2 and 6

Combination of e/s 7,8,9


That's it! I am a bit in a hurry now.

Thanks for visiting my blog!

Love,
JENNY
