@Jennifer2k89 Hmm.. How can I better explain.. It's clumpy. It's not thin or work able. It's like a gel type of glitter clay texture. Clumpy again is how I would best describe it.

Really? Can you elaborate? I'm planning to just use an angle eyeliner brush to do it because I have another glitter palette set from this other brand that appears to be relatively close to the NYX one which I'm capable of drawing a thin line with it. I assumed that I could do the same with this? Is there something wrong with this palette that prevent you from doing so?

Good luck making that thin line!! I tried so hard, but failed.

Yes, I've heard, but actually, I just plan to use them as eyeliner so I'm hoping that it'll work out great? Just a little thin line under the lash line to make my eyes pop and brighten up a bit during those candle light dinners where I want a little sparkle, lol. = ) But thank you for the head up, you're so sweet!

No problem Hun!! I'll be honest, I don't think it's worth it. It's VERY thick and so hard to apply!! I've been meaning to make new videos and one of them will be an application video. However I'm on vacation so you'll have to hang tight for 2 weeks!! ;)

Wow, thanks for the quick reply. Haha, I can't believe I actually got it totally opposite. Thank you so much and looks like I'll be dropping by Ulta later to pick some up. = )

Hello Jennifer!! The glitter particles itself are colored. The cream part is the clear/iridescent part. Hopefuy that helps you!! ;D

Thanks for the awesome video. Do you know if the glitter in the NYX cream glitter palette are actually colored or are they all just iridescent/clear and relies on the cream part to give it it's color? I'm sorry if my question if confusing but I hope you know what I'm trying to say?
