NYX Ultra Pearl Mania Yellow Gold Review, Swatches, EOTD and LOTD

Hello everyone,

Today I am going to review Ultra Pearl Mania Yellow Gold pigment from the house of NYX. Concentrated loose colour powder, or pigment as it is called, is my recent craze. It all started with MAC pigments which I totally adore, but due to the high price tag it is not always possible for me to buy whichever shade I love. Recently I came across this little girl and couldn’t stop myself from buying. 

So was it worth buying? Read to find out…

NYX says:-
“It is hard not to sparkle with one of our ultra shimmering loose shadow powders that can be used on eyes, cheeks, even lips. These finely milled eye shadows are high impact, long lasting, and a little addictive."

Price:-
$4 for 5ml (.06 fl oz)

Packaging:-
The eye shadow dust comes in small, cute plastic bottle with black screw cap.

Shade:-
NYX Yellow Gold (LP17) is a super gorgeous vivid gold with yellow tones. It is packed with shimmers. Very festive, very Indian. This will rock any party/wedding eye makeup.

Texture:-
The pigment is very finely milled and I love how the fine shimmers add a beautiful sheen. It has a very smooth, silky texture, does not feel chalky, is easy to apply and blend.

Pigmentation:-
Pigmentation is just astounding. Very rich, shows even without a primer. The shade is buildable and thus can be intensified as per choice. You just need a tiny bit, so a little goes a long way.

Staying power:-
The staying power is awesome and it stayed intact on me for more than 6 hours. No smudging or fading.

How I use:-
Well, I am not sure if this is the correct way of using this. I just take some dust on a pallet, wet by brush and roll it over the dust. Then I pat it on eye lids and later blend edges. It has lot of fall outs, for obvious reason. So it is better you use it wet.
Ohh… I used it on lips as well; looks killing. You just have to look for the appropriate occasion.

Summing up my likes and Dislikes:-

What I like about NYX's Ultra Pearl Mania Yellow Gold:-

• A stunning shade of gold.
• Finely milled.
• Smooth satiny texture.
• Blends like a dream.
• Rich color payoff.
• Stays long.
• Doesn’t streak or cake.
• A little goes a long way.
• Spill-proof packaging.

What I don’t like about NYX's Ultra Pearl Mania Yellow Gold :-

• Availability.

Final thoughts:-

I am a big fan of golden eye shadows. They look great on our Indian skin tone. This one is a completely gorgeous color, makes eyes pop, well pigmented, goes on smooth, stays bright and bold for hours.

So if you want a bright gold loose eye shadow, go for this one NYX's Yellow Gold Ultra Pearl Mania pigment. It is great and you won’t be left disappointed.
