NYX Champagne and Caviar Palette - Swatches and Mini Review

I have to say that this eyeshadow palette was something that I'd wanted for some time, the colours really appealed, and since I already owned another NYX 10 Colour Eyeshadow Palette in The Runway Collection, I knew the quality would be good. I was so lucky that I managed to pick it up in the lovely Stacey's blog sale - if you can find this palette in the UK it retails for about £10.99 which is nearly double the USA price - Rip Off Britain indeed. Champagne and Caviar as you would expect is a palette full of beautiful neutrals and smokes with both matte and shimmer shades.



A few of you lovely people wanted to see some swatches - so before the snow came yesterday I managed to take a couple of pictures



The shadows feel super soft and velvety and as you can see the colours are pigmented, the only colour I had any real problems with was the matte white, you need to apply a lot of product to get any coverage, but to be honest that seems to be a problem with matte shadows in general and it's not something that's exclusive to NYX. Overall I'm pretty pleased with this palette and I'm glad to have it in my neutrals collection. What do you think of Champagne and Caviar?

  1. Told myself i dont need this, like a million times because im hopefully getting both naked palletes for my valentines gift (i hinted to him that its something that i would love to own...hopefully he figures out the hidden message) but i cant get enough of neutrals lately and this would be an awesome addition to my collection! Maybe just one more pallette wont hurt....
