I may or may not be (okay I am) one of the most extreme Revenge fans ever. Not Revenge as in evil, but as in the hit show on ABC. Because of this, when I heard NYX Cosmetics was coming out with the Revenge Is Infinite Makeup Collection I lost my mind, drove to two separate Ulta locations – one of which had no clue what I was talking about – then finally just went off and ordered online. Luckily, online shipping is FAST and it arrived within a few days!

NYX Cosmetics Revenge Is Infinite Makeup Collection Review Get the Look SwatchesWhat Ulta says about the NYX Cosmetics Revenge Is Infinite Makeup Collection:

Inspired by the ABC hit series Revenge, NYX has created this limited edition palette to capture the beauty of the lead characters Emily and Victoria.

This makeup collection includes:

  • 10 Eyeshadows in Shimmer, Pearly and Matte shades

  • 6 Lip Creams including Bright Red and Deep Nude

  • 3 Blush and Bronzers to create the perfect contour and highlight

It’s made to look like the antique distressed wood with the double infinity of the real box, but on a sturdy coated cardboard.

NYX Cosmetics Revenge Is Infinite Makeup Collection Emily's boxAs you open the box the top part has a small mirror centered between two get the look cards – one for Emily Thorne and one for Victoria Grayson.

The makeup product level is easily removable so that you can keep the box after you’re finished using up the goods or if you just want to hide something private or special underneath.

NYX Cosmetics Revenge Is Infinite Makeup Collection ReviewAll of the shadows ended up working very well on the eye. I was a little concerned with the matte shades when they swatched because they felt dry, but when I used a flat shadow brush (MAC 239) they applied well and worked like a charm!

Secrets was the only one that I just did not like at all. It’s a flat shade and I could barely get any color from it. As you can see in the swatch photo it’s hardly noticeable.

I am no fan of lip shades being in the same palette area as shadows or blushes, but the spacing between them is decent and so far it hasn’t been an issue.

NYX Cosmetics Revenge Is Infinite Makeup Collection Lip SwatchesUsually I’d gravitate toward Emily’s look, since it’s much more natural and what I’d generally wear on my day-to-day. Because of that I thought it’d be more fun to do the Victoria Grayson Get the Look:

NYX Cosmetics Revenge Is Infinite Makeup Collection Victoria Grayson Get the LookTo get this look I used UDPP as a base and followed the step-by-step instruction on the Get the Look card for Victoria. For the eyes I began with Charade at the inner corners, Vendetta on the lid, Duplicity at the outer V and crease blending up and Truth to highlight. The liner is Urban Decay Perversion 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil Smudged at the top and bottom. The mascara is a triple threat of IT Cosmetics Tightline, Too Faced Better Than Sex and Clinique Bottom Lash.
