The Best & Worst of NYX Nude Matte Eyeshadows

Christine — Sat, 14 Jul 2018 22:00:00 +0000

NYX Nude Matte Eyeshadow ($4.50 for 0.05 oz.) 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.
