Target 30% Off Makeup Sale: NYX & Essence Eyeshadow Review


Over the Easter weekend Target had a super good 30% off promo on all their makeup and some haircare brands, and of course I had to pick up some bargains! I purchased these eyeshadows from NYX (for $4.98 on sale) and Essence (for $3.50 on sale), both of which are pretty pigmented.

Taken in direct sunlight, no flash.

The top two NYX matte colors - Whipped Cream and Cupcake - are from their Hot Singles range. I bought these to use as bases, they are the most pigmented of the four and the ones I like the most. They don't have much fallout and can be packed on to look really opaque. Their packaging is so cute, too! 

The bottom two colors are from the Essence Metal Glam line that has now been discontinued, but the Target I went to had quite a number of colors in the range left. These are the colors Sparkle At Night and Are You Grey?. In the packaging they look like highly pigmented glitter shadows, and Are You Grey? brings all the glitter that it promises. Sparkle At Night is a bit more of just a black / greyish satin finish shadow. Not bad for $3.50, though!
