Described on NYX website "Look no further than these scintillating eye shadow palettes inspired by runway trends and modern style.

The Jazz Night Palette - ESP10C01, is the first in the series of 16 palettes.


Runway Collection Jazz Night  10 shadow palette

Overall, the colours are very soft and pigmented. Most of the colours in this palette are frosty but not like most colours that have those chunky bits of sparkle or glitter that I find really a drag to work with. These are quite blendable.

The fact that the colours are mostly frosty and others have a velvety finish, makes this palette a definate must for shimmer lovers. If your'e an absolute matte shadow lover, skip this one.
