I have the ES79A as well, it was my first NYX product and since then I'm sold. I like the color even though it's just really not purple. It's a dark black/gray/brown with small purple glitter....

Okay, this shadow is very confusing. First of all, NYX has two Deep Purples that look nothing alike. The two shadows are 1. ES79A and 2. ES52. I am reviewing ES79A which is a deep dark metallic...

I have the ES79A. I'd really have to use my imagination to call this purple - it's more like a dark neutral charcoal gray with a hint of purple, topped off with a wash of tiny silver sparkles. It...

'Deep Purple' says it's a 'metallic' finish, but to me looks a little matte with subtle hints of shimmer. The pigmentation is quite good and was better than what I was expecting. It applies...

I bought Deep Purple (ES79A) and it's very dark, almost matte with little to no shimmer. It's not what I was looking for ~ I want a deep purple with "shimmer" for evenings. This shade should be...

Overall, it's a pretty purple, but I agree with the other's that the name is a little off. I was expecting more of a deep purple as in eggplant, but it's more of a medium purple. This pairs well...

I have ES52. Overall, this is a pretty blue-y purple that looks gorgeous. NYX makes gorgeous pigmented eyeshadows, and this is no exception. It has a slight shimmer to it, but not at all glittery....

I REALLY like this eyeshadow! Dry, it is a dark, satin-like plum. Wet, it is lighter with more shimmer. It blends pretty well and I am impressed by the pigment. Click "continued" for...

After reading all of the other ladies' reviews, I'm pretty surprised to see that they think this colour is dark. I was about to say quite the contrary. This color comes out pretty sheer on me (NYX...

Deep Purple is sooo pretty! I agree with kealoha when she describes this as a rich eggplant color, although a tad lighter. Paired with lighter purples, this is stunning in the crease and wet as a...
