    Pretty decent for the price, with excellent pigmentation! For some reason this works as an excellent "outline" for my winged liner. Having slightly downturned outer eye corners I've always found...

    Blacker than most black shadows I've owned, the NYX Black shadow has a dry sooty texture that is FANTASTIC to set eyeliner, fill in an uneven hairline and blend into a smokey eye. But there is...

    Terrible. This eyeshadow is very messy and, If you accidentally touch it, It is VERY hard to clean off. Even If I used a makeup remover wipe, the product was all over the place. Since this...

    This is the best black eyeshadow ever! I've used from cheap to expensive brand and they all come of as dark gray, but never true black; and I really need true black; you see my main use for the...

    Already tons of reviews so I don't need to reiterate what has already been said. Definitely one of the most pigmented "black" black eye shadows out there. Smooth and easy to work with but use a...

    I really love gel liner, but it tends to smudge on me if I don't set it with a black eyeshadow. I have matte black shadows in palettes, but I wanted a single eyeshadow to take with me in my makeup...

    It's a pigmented eyeshadow, lasts a long time, however it's creases and goes under my eyes. :/ overall it's like a 3.5 ish kind of eyeshadow. I prefer my wet n wild matte black shadow over this one :)

    I must have gotten a dud. There's no explanation for why this product has 4.6 when the product I received swatched a charcoal gray that I couldn't build up to black. I was hoping this would be a...

    I have this product and use it frequently to deepen color in my creases (going through a smoky eye phase). It is well-priced for what it does, and I find with a primer it lasts a long time without...

    Black is a completely matte black. It has a bit of fallout, but that's fine. I'm not in love with the packaging. Like, it's just, meh. Boring and a bit bulky. The shadow is okay. It smears when I...

    Very pigmented true matte black color! I was impressed when I first used it. I use this all the time for smokey looks. It does fall out if you don’t tap your brush before application. I tried to...
