NYX Lid Lingerie Eyeshadow Rose Pearl Review

Hi guys,

Today, I will be reviewing an eye product from NYX. I saw the review on the shade “Whimsy” and was inspired to buy one too. I am not an expert when it comes to eye makeup, so I was looking forward to this product. I have already reviewed the shade “A Line”previously. To know more about this lid lingerie and how it fared for me, read on further.

My Experience with NYX Lid Lingerie Eyeshadow Rose Pearl:

The eye tint comes in a transparent plastic tube with a black screw-on cap. It is very similar to the Lip Lingerie lipsticks from NYX. It comes sealed in a plastic wrapper. The shade name is printed on the tube itself. It also has a shade code on a sticker on the bottom of the tube. I think this is a good product for on-the-go usage.

The applicator is a doe-foot type, except that the flat side is indented inwards. It enables one to pick up more product from the tube. I do not see much purpose of the shape in terms of application on the eye.

“Rose Pearl” is described as a rose shimmer shade. I thought it would be like a rose gold shade, but this looks peachy in the tube. It has very tiny shimmer particles and looks like molten metal. On my skin tone, the colour doesn’t show up much. It lends a n*de shimmer to my eyelids.

This product glides easily on the lids. It sets almost completely, but it is not transfer proof. The product can be built in layers to achieve maximum opacity. It may also be used as a subtle highlighter, although I haven’t tried it myself. It can be mixed with a primer or lotion to subdue the high pigmentation and smoothed over the high points of the face.

Since the skin on my eyelids is thin, it tends to crease. This product thankfully does not enhance this problem, but doesn’t fix it much either.

I have used this both as an all-over lid shade as well as a highlighter in the inner corner. As it is very pigmented, I usually pick up the product from the applicator using a flat shader brush or a detail brush. I also like to use my fingers as the product is creamy and blends easily. Coming to the removal of this product, it easily comes off with makeup removing wipes or biphasic remover. To remove remaining residue, I follow it up with my double cleanse routine. Overall, I was very happy with this purchase.

Pros of NYX Lid Lingerie Eyeshadow Rose Pearl:

• Highly pigmented.
• Blends easily due to creamy texture.
• Does not dry out the lids.
• Beautiful shade range.

Cons of NYX Lid Lingerie Eyeshadow Rose Pearl:

• Not transfer proof; a primer must be used underneath.
