Ladies, I have a confession. As much as I love to “Oooh!” and “Aaah!” over the latest bright make-up colors – be it eyeshadow or lipstick- I’m nervous about wearing them. Bold make-up can be incredibly intimidating and hard to pull off. Lucky for me, N.Y.C. Cosmetics offers an affordable, expertly color coordinated option: N.Y.C. Cosmetics City Duet Eyeshadow Blendable Brights ($2.99) from the Shock Value collection.
These N.Y.C. City Duet Eyeshadows, in Electric and Flash, are a pleasure to use. They’re formulated to be super silky and blendable and chosen by someone who knows a thing or two about highlighting and contouring, taking some of the guess-work out of it. Using the included dual-end eyeshadow brush allows for sheer application if you’re timid (like I was!), or use a more densely packed eyeshadow brush for a brighter, true color application. Plus, these pretty little brights are long-lasting and won’t fade away by the day’s end.
Ready to snag your own? The N.Y.C. Cosmetics Shock Value Collection is available now in most mass merchandisers and drugstores ($1.99-$3.99). But hurry! These shades are limited edition.

I LOVE how drugstore brands are upping their game and giving consumers a super quality product for a few bucks!
