Overall I was very disappointed by these shadows. They took me more effort to achieve color than other shadows. I don't like shadows that are really hard and dry. That's a way I know it's going to take a few applications. I also have 2 of the liquid glitter liners and they end up peeling off or flaking by the end of the day. I really haven't found anything by NYC yet that makes me really want to get other colors. I love their cute packaging and design so I haven't given up finding a winning product for me yet.
NYX is becoming more readily available. I used to have to go to Ulta or order online but now they are at Target and select CVS's ( sadly none where I live). I love NYX's sleek, cute packaging and their variety of products and colors. At Ulta I picked up 2 Love in Rio eyeshadow trio's in colors I have wanted for months. Plus they were BOGO 50% off. This pink, purple and black combo is called 'Nighttime in Rio'. I was very underwhelmed by these shadows. They were hard and scratchy on the brush and applied very flat and splotchy. I had to apply a few times to get coverage and pigmentation. I love the color combo but this shadow gets a big 'Meh....' From me. ($5.99) This blue, powder blue and pink combo is called 'Paraiso'. These were exactly like the shadows above in terms of consistency and pigmentation. They applied blotchy for me and required several re-applications to achieve good pigmentation. ($5.99)
