    Great shadow. I pair it with NYX Rust and it makes an amazing combo. I love how it brightens- seems metallic but not adding much color of gold making it versatile to use with lots of different...

    Love! I purchased this because I was tired of paying an absurd amount for MAC's "Ricepaper" eyeshadow, and read that Sahara is a good dupe. While Sahara is more sheer and far more shimmery than...

    This is a beautiful shade, almost exactly the color of sand. I like it for light makeup days. It brightens up my eyelids and makes me look refreshed and awake. Plus the finish on it is so...

    i dont know why people compare these shadows to MAC. I don't see any comparison at all. These are chalky and it will give you lots of fall outs.

    I love this shadow! It is appropriately named Sahara because it is a light sand color, which makes for a perfect all-over shadow. I love this as a highlighter and also when I want to just wear...

    Really nice color payoff for such an inexpensive eyeshadow. (Not all NYX shadows have a smooth application.) The color is really versatile. I wish they carried this in the south!

    This color is a sheer, pearl-glowy color, a guess a pale golden shade. It's not overly shimmery at all- it's very low-key. You could use this as a highlighter or as a base shade, for that...

    This shadow is a really great neutral color for a wash all over the lid. Great for everyday, not too shimmery. One of my favorite NYX shadows.
