All Nude Review: Pixi Shades of Nude Quartette

Ode to the Neutral Eye...

 
Shades of Nudes
about $25 at Target stores


From Left:
  • matte cream shade
  • shimmery champagne/taupe shade
  • taupe shade with a satin finish
  • medium brown with a satin finish
My Thoughts...
     I'm really loving this little palette from Pixi. The shadows are soft and pigmented...though just the slightest bit powdery... and blend incredibly easily. This is my favorite "grab and go" palette for when I want a quick, neutral eye look without all the fuss. The shimmery champagne/taupe shade looks amazing all over the lid, while the satin brown gives just the right amount of definition to the crease.
     The only down fall I see to this palette is the price point...$25 is a little steep for "drugstore" makeup but if you like a taupey, neutral eye, I believe its worth the price. I love the quality and shade selection of this palette and it would definitely be a nice little staple to have in any makeup collection.

Would I Repurchase?
Yes

My Thoughts...
Smooth, pigmented, and gives my complexion the most beautiful sheen. I love layering this product under my blush for a more natural, "glow from within" look. So happy I picked this up!
