According to NYC New York City Color,

From the first touch of primer to the last swipe of mascara, you will look flawless from lid to lash. Go big and bold with colored liners, or make a dramatic statement by mixing different shades of shadows.
24 HR Waterproof Eye Shadow: This retractable chubby has a unique, pigment-packed formula for 24-hour waterproof wear. Color glides on smooth and stays crease-proof all day and all night. Try using it as a liner, or smudge with your finger for a smoky effect.  Available shades: Wall Street Bronze, Brooklyn Mocha, Tribeca Taupe, 5th Ave Gold Rush,  Murray Hill Champagne,  Rockefeller Center Snowflakes,  Empire State Building, New York At Night, Central Park Tulips,  East River Romance and Madison Square Park.

NYC City Proof 24 HR Waterproof Eye Shadow Features:
  • 24HR wear
  • Waterproof
  • Crease-proof
  • Homogeneous application
  • Gives intense color pay-off
  • Vibrant color
  • Quick & easy to use
  • Glides easily
  • Smooth application
  • Smear-proof & Tear-proof
  • Can be used as a liner & eyeshadow
  • Smart retractable action: twists up for fast use.
As NYC New York Color suggests, "Just twist, glide and go!" If you love the convenience of quick and easy-to-use cream shadows with tremendous staying power, then these beauties really deliver. While I have not tested their 24 hour wear claims, I will say that once this formula sets it really does stay put. These cream eye shadows effortlessly glide across the lids depositing color evenly without incident. I was able to achieve all-day wear without a primer, but if you have oily eyelids you will may want to use a primer– though it is doubtful that you will actually need to.

    For some reason I've never felt drawn to NYC as a brand. Guess I'll have to give 'em a chance some time.

    Great looking metallic shades (the 2 on the left)! I haven't tried these yet, but love the version from Rimmel. And you can't beat the price

      Tribeca Taupe is pretty matte, but Empire State Building definitely has dimension!

    I actually went to a Coty (the company that makes NYC) to do a job for these being released, very impressed I must say!

    I love the lippies in the same packaging so I'm definitely wanting to find these and check out at least one shade. The colors look great for a quick smoky eye... or just in general and I think I could get away with wear on my waterline. Thanks for sharing - I haven't seen or heard that these have come out yet.

      I really want to try those lippies! These are definitely good for a smoky eye or a wash of color and run out the door in a rush! They also work well as eyeliners too! I wore Empire State Building in my lower lash line yesterday and it lasted all day on me. That one has some shimmer so I wouldn't put it on my waterline because I have sensitive eyes. I think that you should definitely check these out!
