NYX Love In Rio Palette Review

Thursday 16 October 2014

Hello everyone! Have you entered my giveaway yet? No? Then stop reading this and go and enter! 
Anyway, this past week I've been trying out more eyeshadows and experimenting with palettes. The one I've been reaching for during the day is the NYX Love In Rio trio (ha, that rhymed) palette in Segredos de Giselle.











Firstly, the packaging is super cute with the little bow on the opening clasp, it's a perfect size for traveling because it's compact. I like the little window where you can see the eyeshadow shades. However, a mirror would be more practical for travel so you can touch up your eye makeup. 
On to the eyeshadows, all three are shimmery with a slight gold undertone. I was a bit skeptical about the formula because I'd heard NYX eyeshadows can be chalky with fall-out. But they were lovely, they felt smooth and blended seamlessly without any fall-out and they are nicely pigmented, especially the bronze shade. Speaking of the bronze shade, it's my favourite! It adds a subtle smokey look to the eye that is perfect for daytime wear.
The longevity is reasonable, they last about 5 hours before they crease and fade. I always use a primer to make the eyeshadows last longer but after about 7 hours they crease like crazy. 
Overall, I have been really enjoying using this palette and I want to try out more NYX eyeshadows in the future. 
This palette can be purchased from the NYX website for £6
