NYX eyeshadow

I know MAC is best,iwas planning to buy few colors from MAC, but now i want to know is NYX good also?

i saw few NYX e/s and they seemed good.. i am thinking of buying NYX now instead of MAC because i have few MAC shadows..

you know, just a little bit of change

so what do you recommend?

Any of the trios really. I think all the colors are great.

ya..it was a trio!!

i wanted blue shades

and i wanted a red( theyhad in loose powder,.and it looked soooooooooooooooo good..i almost bought it) but then i thought i should wait

so came here to consult with you people

get your basics, like black, white and brown, in matte, then start adding your wild colors i love tropical, lime, plum and all the turquoise colors, i love them all!! and the trios are good too, cuz you can de-pot them and put tthem in mac palettes.

Yeah they have a great brown and black trio!

i have MAC black colors..(copper and i forgot the name of the other one..its black with glitter ..hmmm ) well..i have Maybelline brown and also bluw trio!!

but NYX blue is what kinda blue i wanted!!

i asked if they have red trio..but they had red,,but with green and yellow..i didnt like that!!

so i think i should buy as they seem nice

Hi,
It's sounds Black Tied (black with glitter e/s).

NYX loose powders and trios are great! I'd definitely recommend checking them out.

I have a few of the singles, but my one problem is that Lime Green looks gold on me...

I don't have trios...

I would like to know the answer to this. The shadows are not that expensive but I would like quality. I want to use shadow that will not require me to reapply.

I have the trios and singles and didnt notice a difference.

yea it's really pigmented and lasts long

Yeah, much better overall I think

MAc does the trick..

but NYX e/s looked soo gooddddd

and the loose powder one were really really good..i tried them there!!

i guess i will buy three trios and few loose powder ones

hehhe.. i checked it out and same thing happened to me.. it looked gold so i dropped the idea of purchasing it... but there is this other green..it was a loose powder one /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> damn..was it good or what..let me get the name and i'll tell you..maybe that might work for you

I'm still waiting, Masad

I bought the black e/s and I must say, it's wonderful. Very similar to MAC Carbon.

I also got Red Ben Pie, cuz i wanted a deep wine red plum colored shadow, and I LOVE IT! Only thing is I can't make it too dramatic, cuz i look kinda bruised...

I love Flamingo eyeshadow. It is a gorgeous pinky/purple. I need to buy more NYX.

The best thing to do also is check out the swatches and youtubes reviews on the shadows. Reason I say this its because I have a HOT ORANGE eyeshadow from NYX, but it has sparkles and there is not much color pay off. So actually you get good advice from watching or reading the bloggers reviews on certain shadows and it has worked for me. Also, I did BUY a trio ( the purple one) BUT the color payoff is NOT as intense as the regular single eyeshadows--BUT it could be a hit or MISS situation. SO, if I WERE YOU, stick with the singles, I would hate for you to spend 20$ on 4 sets of trios and the color pay off was minimal.....the only trio that caught MY attention was LAKE MOSS...thanks to Vanessa from her blog.

i have singles, no trios, and all the pearl pigments and a few loose chromes. love them all.

I have singles and trios but I find that singles have better staying power.
