NYX Single Eyeshadow Swatch

As promised from the other day here is my new NYX Single Eyeshadow in Yellow Marigold and first Swatch of the Day. I've only had it for 3 days now but I'm already in love with both the color and the NYX shadow in general. I see this becoming a favorite in no time. The color is a beautiful light yellow metallic gold. The formula of this shade is great, soft and pigmented, no fallout and little fading, plus it build to super high intensity really quick and easy on top of a base. I hope all the NYX colors are this great and I can't wait to go back and make a haul on CherryCulture where they're only $3.50 a piece and so many colors to pick from!

Get Ready for Swacth of the Day (SOTD)!

I have a zillion eyeshadows, as they are the most colorful and fun to shop for so I think I'm going to try to swatch and do a mini summary/review of each one everyday (it should last me awhile). No promises on never missing a day but I'll try to do my best. And if you ever see any shades that look pretty similar and want me to do a side by side swatch and comparison just holla out! Also, since I don't want to say it every time I'll always swatch on Urban Decay Primer Potion.

Some of my many, many eyeshadow pigments

As a heads up a ton of them are from Pure Luxe because it was one of the first mineral make up lines I discovered when I was first building my collection and had money to blow. I find it to be a a fun mineral makeup line. I've heard some speculation about repackaging of pigments, but honestly I don't follow that stuff much (and don't really care, sorry I'm a bad consumer). What I love most about Pure Luxe is they offer samples for $1 that come in nice little 5 g jars (not little plastic baggies where you waste 80% of the product). The sample is supposedly 1/8 a teaspoon but they are almost always much more generous than that. I hear some people say that the sample will last a couple applications but I get a lot more than that out of them!!! More like 20+ if you are good about tapping your brush in the lid and not spilling.

Anyways, wish me luck!
