Now these aren't swatches per se but I know I've read tons of complaints on how NYX web page and cherry culture have the crappiest color displays and when you get them, they are completely different than what you expected. Here's a link to NYX cosmetics - red cherry - la colors, jewelry, clothing - Nonpareil Boutique that is kinda like cherry culture. They are still a bit pricier than what I would pay for them and I'm sure Nick007 can give you a better deal but the examples of the colors were so accurate I had to show you guys the link. I own tons of NYX singles and a couple of trios and they were amazingly accurate, practically right on. Of course it might show up different on different computers but i highly recommend looking at this site when trying to determine the colors your are purchasing.

NYX Singles Eye Shadows:
NYX Eyeshadow : Single eyeshadow : Eyes : Cosmetics: Makeup|gives you the freedom to mix and match shades

NYX Trios:
NYX Trio Eyeshadow : Eye shadow : Eyes : Pallette: Cosmetics : Makeup: Nonpareil Boutique.com

I didn't know about this site til I saw this.
Some of the NYX products on this site is still cheaper than Cherry Culture.
So I'll def be ordering from this site if their shipping isn't ridiculous.
Thanks so much for posting =D

Your welcome! I've never ordered from them but I've seen plenty of women on youtube ordering from them.

I ordered NYX trios from the Nonpareil boutique and they are great, if you order $40 or more your shipping is free so that's what I did
I really would've loved the trios to have better pigmentation though but the colors shown on the website were accurate

Are the trios less pigmented than the singles?

[Ashley]

In my opinon, they are. I have several singles and a couple of trios. Every single has been pigmented and smooth, but the trios seem hit or miss.

I have noticed this with the trios. I didn't know the singles are better. Thanks for the heads up.

[Adrienne]

Yep, even when it comes to the singles that make up the trios, the singles are better. The trios are generally good to really good imo but it's a hit and miss. I have found though that the trios really suck as far as the matte shades go. They're really hard to blend and don't want to show up for crap. The matte singles are pretty good and very soft and pigmented.

Great thanks for the info. This will save me some money. Singles it is

I think they changed the formula or something, because the shadows I have from 4 years ago have better pigmentation then the recent one I had bought. I'm like, "wtf... it barely shows!!" I bought 2 trios and they were crap. The old ones I had were good...

I never bought the singles because I bought their blush and had crazy fallout and it put me off because I assumed the singles would be like that too. But I might go for it if I decide to skip on MUFE... thanks for the link.
