Hey guys, I'm looking for a very bright, and well pigmented yellow eyeshadow :)

Any suggestions?
Thanks :D

I love NYX Yellow Funk. It's very pigmented and it's matte. The NYX yellow is nice if you want one with shimmer.

Makeup Forever's #2 Eyeshadow is a really intense yellow as well!
I also hear that MAC's Chrome Yellow is an awesome & pigmented yellow as well :)

I swatc hed MAC Chrome yellow in store and was not impressed. The texture was a bit hard and the pigmentation was not even close to NYX yellow funk.

MAC Chrome Yellow and Inglot has a lot of great yellows. I own 474 and it's a bright yellow with shimmer. There is also a matte one. Inglot has a bright yellow in pigment form as well.

Seconding the vote for Sugarpill's Buttercupcake. Also for Inglot yellow--they have two (?) pressed yellows, one matte one matte with microglitter, both of which I adore. They also make a gel liner in yellow that also makes a great pigmented base for layering shadow over.

Even though I'm not big on promoting BITCH SLAP COSMETICS they have a really good yellow.check out my "Rio" inspired pic I used bsc for it. It's matte but s little chalky. Also I 2nd chrome yellow by MAC as well as going bananas and canary yellow.

I'm not sure MakeupStore is available in your country. But they have a really nice yellow. I'm sure you can find any that's just as good though :)

i'm going to add a third to buttercupcake, not powdery or chalky at all and very rich in pigment! not to mention affordable and the amount you get is HUUUUGE

For something matte, I'd also recommend Sugarpill's Buttercupcake.

For something with a shimmer or frost, I'd recommend Bright Sunshine by MAC (Pro) or Sun Yellow by Ben Nye.

Also, depending on your skin tone yellows can be quite hard to work with. Using a good yellow or white base can make the process significantly easier, more true and vibrant.

Good luck. :]
