NYX Eyeshadow Palettes

NYX Eyeshadow Palettes

     Happy Sunday my beauties! I have put together a list of 6 NYX eyeshadow palettes that I use on clients as well as myself. These eyeshadows are amazing, and they are very reasonably priced. I bought all my palettes at Ulta or you can go to nyxcosmetic.com. I took pictures of swatches as well so you can see how they look on skin. There are a few shades that are a little to too light for me;  or they match my skin tone. They will show up great on fair to darker skin (Olive skin you won't want to use the light peach to almost white shades). You'll be able to achieve gorgeous looks with these eyeshadows. I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. If you want to keep up to date on my blog don't forget to subscribe! I have new posts every Sunday.
Thanks for reading,

1. NYX Love in Paris, C'est La Vie
      This is a 9 color palette, and they are all shimmer colors. I love making looks with the Gold and Greens. The packaging is so cute and doesn't take up a lot of space. It's a great palette for both Spring and Fall. There are 12 different palettes in this line, all of them are so beautiful. Price $10







 2. NYX The Natural Shadow Palette
      This is a 6 color palette with 2 mattes and 4 shimmer. I love this palette it looks great on everyone and I use the brown to fill in eyebrows. I use this palette on most of clients no matter what look I'm doing. It is a great palette to have if you're a busy chick and like natural makeup for your everyday look. Price $8



I have Olive skin so some of the lighter colors don't show up as well.


 3. NYX Sex Bomb Shadow Palette
      This sexy little 6 color palette has 4 mattes and 2 shimmers. For hot date nights or special occasions this is perfect. I like that it has a lot of matte colors because it makes it great for any age or skin type. Looking at the Red you're pry thinking where in the heck do I put that color? I like to line my upper lash line to add a pop of color. Take a pencil brush and wet it then pick up the red and line your eyes, it gives you a very sultry look with a smokey eye. Sex Bomb really is "da bomb". Price $8 





4. NYX Dream Catcher Palette, Stormy Skies
     This is a 10 color baked shadow palette with 5 matte and 5 shimmers. I think this is another great palette that you can go natural or dramatic; you have all the colors you need. My favorite is doing a light smokey eye with the Purple. Price$ 14.99







5. NYX Dream Catcher Palette, Dusk Til Dawn
     This is another palette in the Dream Catcher line it has 2 mattes and 8 shimmers. This is a great palette for a natural glam look. It has great natural colors to make beautiful Spring and Summer looks. The bronze colors are my favorite to use to make a great sun kissed shimmer look. Price $14.99



 6. NYX Wicked Dreams Palette
     This bad boy has 24 colors with a great mix of matte and shimmers. I think this is the ultimate palette to have because you can do so much with it. There is a great variety of dark and light colors; you can be as natural as you want, and then be a smokey eyed hottie at night. I use this palette on a lot of my clients as well when I am doing a smokey eye on them, the blues are amazing. Price $14.99
