NYX Wicked Dream Palette review

So as you might night, I hauled Some ELF and some NYX products recently. One of the items I hauled was this palette. to be honest, on purchase of this palette I must admit, I was a little skeptical. Firstly because we can't buy NYX in NZ so I knew nothing about the brand and secondly, I have not heard that much about this particular product

I really like the design and packaging of this product. It's sleek and tidy. It'll be great as an addition to a professional makeup kit or even a personal collection. The best feature of the packaging would have to be that the individual eyeshadows are not as deep as the packaging. At first I was like "What a rip off!" BUT on closer inspection I realised that it was a design marvel. The shadows don't hit the mirror so this  keeps the mirror somewhat cleaner. Yeah, it's inevitable that a mirror in a palette will get filthy but this one, not so much. Well done NYX. Truly great design

There is a good range of matte, shimmer and satin finishes. I have swatted a few of my favourites here. The top colour appears to be a midnight blue colour in the pan but when it is swatched, it's a black with navy blue shimmer. this looks really interesting on the lid. Perfect for going out. There is two matte browns which I recommend for a brow filler. This palette has a perfect mix of neutrals and colours.
