NYX Nude Matte Eyeshadows (Part 4)
Tantilizing
NYX Tantilizing Nude Matte Eyeshadow ($4.50 for 0.05 oz.) is a brighter, light-medium orange with subtle, warmer undertones and a matte finish. It had semi-opaque pigmentation with a soft, lightly dusty texture that was blendable and easy to work with, though I’d still recommend a primer as a must-have with this shade to get the most intensity and vibrancy. It wore well for seven hours on me before it started to fade noticeably. (Also, the label itself is spelled “Tantilizing,” though “Tantalizing” seems like what it should be.)

Formula Overview
$4.50/0.05 oz. - $90.00 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to be "packed with pigment" with a "soft and smooth" texture for "seamless blending." Most shades had decent to good pigmentation with most being semi-opaque but buildable. The textures were soft, a little drier and dusty, but blendable. They applied better over eyeshadow primer as they had a tendency to sheer out a little too readily on bare skin. On me, most of the eyeshadows lasted between six and eight hours before fading noticeably.
