Bewitched

NYX Bewitched Prismatic Shadow ($6.00 for 0.04 oz.) is a bright, light-medium chartreuse green with warm, yellow undertones and a frosted sheen. It had opaque pigmentation, though I swear it was a bit faded applied than it appeared in the pan. The texture was soft, a little powdery, but blendable and easy to use on the lid. It wore well for seven and a half hours on me.

Gilded

NYX Gilded Prismatic Shadow ($6.00 for 0.04 oz.) is a rich, medium-dark yellow with warm undertones and a metallic sheen. The eyeshadow had fantastic pigmentation that applied evenly and smoothly on bare skin. The consistency was smooth, soft enough to pickup easily with a brush, but firm enough to have some substance and good adherence to the skin. It lasted for eight hours before fading a bit on me.

Glass Slipper

NYX Glass Slipper Prismatic Shadow ($6.00 for 0.04 oz.) is a bright, pale aqua green with subtle, warm golden shimmer, though it read a bit “cool” on me overall. It had nearly opaque color payoff paired with a soft, lightly powdery texture that was still blendable and didn’t have fallout during application as long as I pressed and patted it onto the lid. This shade lasted for eight hours before noticeably fading on me.

Rose Dust

NYX Rose Dust Prismatic Shadow ($6.00 for 0.04 oz.) is a rich, medium-dark copper with warm, rosy undertones and a metallic finish. The eyeshadow was richly pigmented where a little went a very long way. It had a soft, almost cream-like texture that wasn’t too dense nor too loose in the pan, which made it extremely easy to apply, helped it go on smoothly on bare skin, and blended out effortlessly. It wore well for eight hours on me.

Savage

NYX Savage Prismatic Shadow ($6.00 for 0.04 oz.) is a medium, bluish-teal with cool undertones and a metallic finish. The color payoff was opaque in a single layer. It had a soft, lightly dusty texture in the pan, but I didn’t have trouble with fallout as long as I tapped away the excess prior to applying the eyeshadow to my lid. It applied evenly and blended out with ease without primer. This shade stayed on nicely for eight hours before it started to fade noticeably.

Volatile

NYX Volatile Prismatic Shadow ($6.00 for 0.04 oz.) is a bright, medium purple with warm, pink undertones and a metallic sheen. It had nearly opaque color coverage that applied evenly and smoothly on my skin, but this was a shade that I felt really sang if I used it with a dampened brush as the texture was just a bit more powdery than ideal. The eyeshadow lasted for eight hours before fading a bit on me.
