I have four of their eyeshadows I bought at a make-up bar store-closing sale.
MATTES:
Modern (bright sea foam green): awesome, very unique color with great pay-off
Deep Coral (just as the name says!): this is one of my favorite shadows in general, great addition to many looks.
Twinkle (bright orange-coral): i love this one so much! it would look good on, i imagine, just about anyone.
SHIMMER:
With Love (light pink with white sheen): this one, for whatever reason, doesn't show up on me at all. even with UDPP! it might be the formulation?

if you want to get anything from this line, i suggest you do so as quickly as possible. It seems they're going out of business. Their customer service nos have been disconnected, people who ordered aren't receiving their stuff and salons are no longer placing orders with them.

well, I did order from them some months ago, but recently people said they ordered from them and they never received thier stuff. Their line is disconnected, and I've spoken to salons who carry their line and they say they can't contact Nixie Cosmetics either and most of them are selling off their stuff at discount.
okay, I have more info: their website is still running, they are taking orders but are not sending product out, so you might want to be careful.

I placed my order in June, got it 5 days later, placed another order late July, and got it last week. Never had the issue before, but I did speak with a salon who does business with them (salons are still placing orders, I've only talked to one who stopped carrying them and they stopped awhile ago), and they spoke with their PR rep who said they were closing their LA slot, and weren't sure when they were going to reopen and would be running instead from the warehouse. Makes sense, considering the LA location wasn't even a retail location.
For anyone placing orders, I do recommend being careful as they are in this transition phase. I can't imagine they are going out of business without stating so and trying desperately to get rid of some backstock. The number is out of order because the location the number was at is no longer there. I'll keep everyone posted, as I'll be making another order probably next week to see what happens.... *fingers crossed* I'll keep it small, just in case, LOL
I'm hoping they're not going to go out of business, they're a fab company. Sure, some customer service issues, but they're still pretty green in the cosmetics industry. Dunno what wonderful stuff I'll fill my kit with if they're gone :-(

I spent about $200 on several eye shadows a few weeks back and got them in a reasonable amount of time (maybe a week or so) - I LOVE the colors! I want to order more, and maybe some blushes....am a little hesitant to do so, but maybe I'll take the plunge - just for a few anyway.
OK, I just placed a fairly sizeable order just in case they decide to go OOB. I'll keep my fingers crossed. Their colors really are lovely - and I used Sandra V's discount (thank you!!) as the artist who referred me.
I got several eye shadows, a powder and a cream blush.
I have to stop now, as MAC, MUFE, MAD Minerals and Nixie are breaking my bank.
I'll let everyone know if I get my package......

Thanks for the info, I'll try ordering from their website. Hopefully it'll go well.
I got my order while I was out of town! It arrived in tact, but one of the colors was wrong (I ordered 'Grapefruit' eye shadow and got 'Grape' instead). I was happy it got here, though I don't know why they don't answer any calls or emails. The last order I placed was short a blush, and one of the lipsticks was melted in the tube, but no one ever responded to my complaint.
I'll chalk this one up to another 'whew!' - I think I have most of what I want from this brand now - I could maybe be convinced to get another 2 or 3 of their pigments though.....
