So approximately two months ago I saw there was a sale on at Coles supermarket for Maybelline products after seeing the ads featuring The NUDES eye shadow palette I decided I wanted it. I payed only $10 so was considerably excited as I have seen it priced up to $25 in other stores, plus if it wasn't any good it wasn't much of a loss.
Since bringing it home, I have used it quite a bit especially the black in the bottom right hand corner - use this to line my lower eye lashes, and the pale creamy white beside it- use in the corners of my eyes beside my nose.
I find the colours suit my complexion considerably as my hair and eyes are hazel with naturally dark brown hair that I dye black. It is easy to apply, some of the colour' more pigmented than the others - but it is a nude palette not meant to be too intense. The lighter colours are a lot more subtler than the dark, which is good if you want a more subtle eye or if you gradually want to build up the colour.

I have read a lot of reviews that put this shadow palette down as it is not as pigmented as other nude palettes. I will agree with that for some of the shadows, but it is a nude palette. A subtle eye shadow application is preferred for daily use. So if you want a subtly, even elegant professional every day look. This palette is for you. If you want in your face pigmentation, look at something else. It needs to be appreciated for what it is.
Thanks for reading my post.
Let me know your opinion on this palette, most either love or hate it!
