It’s been a while since I reviewed an eyeshadow palette and I’ve had the NYX Modern Dreamer Palette sitting in my collection for a while now. Given the high price tag on this palette, I thought it was worth getting a review up so you can decide for yourself if it’s worth the money or not.
Packaging
This NYX palette comes in standard plastic packaging with a clear lid so you can see the shades inside. I quite like the simplicity of it but there’s no mirror or anything and the packaging doesn’t feel as premium as you’d expect for the price.
Price
This eyeshadow palette retails for £35 in the UK. NYX is definitely a top-tier drugstore brand and you can expect to pay more for their products but £35 for a NYX palette just sounds way too high to me. You are getting 40 shades for your money and 40g of product, which isn’t bad compared to some other brands.
Shades
I opted for the Modern Dreamer Palette over their other Swear By It Palette in the same style because I thought the shades looked more interesting. I’m a sucker for a pop of bright colours even if I hardly ever use them.
Wear
Over eye primer or concealer, I have no problem with these shades fading or wearing off like you get with some cheaper eyeshadows. Overall, this does feel more like a highend palette.
The NYX Modern Dreamer Palette has a bit of everything from brights to neutrals. £35 is a lot to invest in a drugstore palette but if your collection is lacking something like this, I do think it’s worth the money and I’m really impressed with the quality.
