On this day I ended up with a neutral eye look that has both warm and cool toned elements using the NYX Ultimate Utopia Palette. I used to feel like I could only wear warm shades or cool shades but not both together in a look and that is totally false. In fact, I think mixing the two is really what makes some looks most interesting.
Here’s a warm brown neutral eye look using the NYX Ultimate Utopia Palette.
I was feeling a blue look on this day so I ended up creating this halo eye with the NYX Ultimate Utopia Palette.
For this look I knew I wanted to use that vibrant mustard yellow in the NYX Ultimate Utopia Palette and built the rest of the look around that.
My first attempted look with the new NYX Ultimate Utopia Palette. I just kind of picked out whatever random colors stood out to me without trying to plan the look out.
NYX 3 Steps to Sculpt ($12 for 15 grams) contains a contour, a matte highlighter, and an illuminator. The trio I am reviewing here is the shade Fair but there are four palettes to choose from for different skin tones.
NYX Sculpt & Highlight Face Duo is a two-in-one cream product containing both a highlighter and contour shade. The formula is not as emollient as the type of cream product you’d find in a pan but it offers a finish that looks more like skin than a powder. It doesn’t smell fragranced but it does have a very mild paint-like smell that I did not find noticeable during normal use.
NYX Matte Lipsticks are described as long-wearing, highly pigmented and non-drying. There are currently 33 shades available on NYX’s website.
NYX HD Eye Shadow Base is an eyeshadow primer that is supposed to make eyeshadows look more vibrant and last longer. It also claims to make eyelids look “smoother, more even toned.”
