NYX Nude on Nude Palette

Hello! and welcome two weeks into the new year!

Back to the NYX Thanksgiving Haul, this is my favorite little treasure:

NYX Nude on Nude Palette







The colors are so pretty, so neutral and really come in several finishes in one tiny little package. What a perfect travel buddy!



So the top three are a matte finish - a creamy color which reminds me of the light color of NARS India Song duo, a dusty or a watered down espresso.

The first two of the middle three and the first two of the last three are a satin finish and are so pretty and neutral but it really makes me think it's more pinky than goldy-tan palette (at least for those 4)

The last of the two are a frost finish with super fine gold bits in a (terrifyingly close) dusty espresso and a milk chocolate.



It also comes with two pink highly saturated glosses. The first is a pearly dusty rose and the second a flirty barbie pink gloss. They're both pretty and very wearable and layerable.



But I gotta say - this little fucker is tiny! I mean it is SO SMALL! I truley thought it would be at least a half size bigger. But that's ok, I have so many shadows and palettes that this is just a perfect size afterall.


Love, Liz xoxo

Aha! I know what you mean about tiny! It really is tiny. My friend has this naked palette. She is already working on a review on it. Aha! I really do like how travel friendly this naked palette is though!

My first thought was: wow this is so tiny, I got ripped off! My second thought was: oohhh prettyyyy! So in conclusion it's just perfect for traveling and perfect for horders (guilty as charged!)

Oof, I hate it when you open packages and your first reaction is "that's it?" however it looks pretty! Swatches please!

Just found your website today. Love it! Just subscribed to your RSS feed. :)

OOoo I just got the Urban Decay Naked palette and have always been in love with natural eyeshadow colors. Too tiny though? How do NYX eyeshadows compare to MAC? Seems like a lot of YouTube gurus are in love with NYX as a cheaper alternative?

Check out my new nailpolish/fashion blog when you get a chance and let me know what you think!

Wow, I didn't realize how small it was! I love NYX products, but as far as the palettes go, I have only gotten the runway ones...and those are a pretty nice size.

They say this is supposed to be an UD Naked Palette dupe....what do you think?
