NYX Nude on Nude Palette Honest Review




       I've heard of raves from different makeup gurus and bloggers about different eyeshadow palettes and as much as I would like to try them, they are not available in my area. So when I knew that a new NYX Makeup store has recently opened nearby, I gladly spent my money to try out their hottest palette, the NYX Nude on Nude palette.

Here is the overview packaging of my palette:
   



Please don't mind the holes on the lipgloss area, it just shows how much I've already abused the poor thing.

I already fell in love with the packaging of the palette, and more so when I found out that I can play a lot with this palette because of its extensive range of dark, medium and light neutral colors. The shadows are a mixture of glittery, satin and matte finishes and are actually good to use as well. The lippies are also a variation of vibrant to neutral shades, perfect for making a combination look together with the shadows so a thumbs up to NYX for the strategically made palette.

Now on to the swatches:
                                           upper row of eyeshadows

                                            bottom row of eyeshadows

                                              lip gloss row

The Verdict: 

      For a price of approximately less than 30 dollars, exactly P1,620 price here in my country, I can say that this palette is actually worth its price.Most of the shadows are very pigmented and lasts for a very long time especially when used with a primer. I would highly recommend to use this shadow especially if you are a budget wise type of person it actually gives you the exact if not the higher quality than the price it offers. Most of the shadows when swatched became a bit chalky since i had to rub on the palette for some time to make the colors come out clearer. But actually when used with a brush, these shadows are pigmented, blendable and easy to use. Although I was not really sold out with the lipglosses of this palette, when swatched, they actually look rich but when used, most are very sheer and easily comes off, what happens is you keep on re-applying the gloss from time to time to keep its color on, I understand most are nude gosses and cannot be easily noticed but the its wearability is actually the issue, it does not last too long especially in humid weather.

PROS:
1. Very Affordable
2. Eyeshadows are pigmented, blendable and lasts for an amountable period of time.
3. Good range of eyeshadow pigments from colors to the effect (glitter, satin and matte)
4. The colors seen on the palette are the actual colors that will show when you apply it.

CONS:
1. The lippies does not last long especially in humid weather.
2. The color of the lippies are more sheer compared on what you see on the palette.
3. The brushes included were not really of use (I only use them if I don't bring any other brushes with me).

Overall, I think this palette is really worth a try since the performance of the shadows are really worth it.

I also want to know about YOUR favorite makeup palettes that you would want me to try, please feel free to say so in the comments below.

All for the best,
