Sigh. I tried this colour any which way ( lid, inner corners, browbone) and for the life of me I don't understand just what it is supposed to do. It DOES'T highlight...in fact, it does absolutely nothing. I don't blame UD for this very strange product, I only blame myself for buying it and promptly losing the receipt. Regardless of what the sales assistant says, think REALLY hard before you buy this. And make sure you don't loose the receipt! Since there is a very high chance you will want to return it.

I received foxy with my Naked 2 pallet which I adore, but this shadow is just meh. The color is great and matches my skin perfectly, but the consistency is just very powdery. I find that it doesn't do the best job blending out my crease color. It does the job, but I won't go out and buy foxy when I hit pan in my pallet.

This is one of my favorite shadow from the naked 2 palette. Its a matte creamy yellow color . I like to use it as a blending color for when I want to soften up eyeshadows in the crease and outer corner . It works amazing for that . As a highlight I like it too . I tend to stay away from shimmery highlights as I feel they don't look good in me , and this shows up just enough and is matte which I adore . It is a bit powdery but easy to work with . I would repurchase the full sized if I run out .

I am so surprised by the negative reviews for this product. This is one of my favorite finds from buying the naked2 palette. It is the perfect brow color for me, I love the subtle matte sheen, it's gorgeous. Its kind of off white yellow sheer shade contrasts with my dark eyes nicely. I like to use Mac's painterly underneath and it makes this color intensify. I also use a pink paint pot underneath it (girl friendly) and it comes out as the light pastel pink with the gorgeous whitish sheen. I think this color is very basic, and I can see how it may be too light to show up on some people, or if they wanted more pigment, as this is quite sheer. But these are the reasons I personally love it. I will definitely be repurchasing in an individual pan once the bit in the palette runs out.

I know this color wouldn't show up on skintones darker than me, but I love it! It is my HG brow highlight. I am an NC 15-20 but my browbones tend to have a pinky undertone due to the thin skin on my eyes, and the yellow in this color really balances it out. It really helps round out my look. I don't like shimmer on my brows so this is perfect for me. It can be powdery, but I use it to my advantage when I find that the crease color is too dark/has been blended too high. I use a blending brush to do this and it really diffuses the color. The powderiness doesn't really show up on me because I am quite light. However, I would not recommend this if you are any darker.

I must be the minority that really likes this! If you're looking for a more yellowy counterpart of MAC Blanc Type matte e/s - this is it! I am a big fan of this shadow. It is soft, not chalky, and is super pigmented. I LOVE my Blanc Type, but this is not as pink. This is no longer sold by Urban Decay :(

I was a bit underwhelmed by this product for the past week I've had it, figuring I could just use my Shiseido powder foundation with the same neutral effect, until this evening when it went beyond what any foundation could do and literally saved my night! I was in a huge hurry out the door and had loaded on too much silver by the browbone...no time to start over, moisturize, prime etc...and luckily for me, Foxy to the rescue. It was like a magic eraser for my mistakes. I absolutely love it and will definitely repurchase. Perfect for a really smoooth and clean look.

I love this shadow, but not for the reason I bought it. I was looking for a no-shadow shadow - something to give some coverage and even tone without looking like I had on eye shadow. This is way too light for that.

What I did discover is the yellow tone completely gets rid of the purple/red of my eyelids. I have always had pink undertones, but as I've gotten older, and thinner-skinned (?), the teency vessels really show through and it is NOT attractive. I've tried several primers and am either allergic or they emphasize any wrinkle that might or might not actually be present (I'm not putting THAT definitively in writing!) on my eyelids.

This is an excellent color-corrector and base. I *will* definitely repurchase.

While the formula is great, the color is far from fabulous. I couldn't see it on my eyelids at all. I returned it. What a dud.

Foxy is a matte eyeshadow. I am a NC35 at the moment & chose this colour over abc gum because foxy is more yellow (vs. abc gum which is peachy). I wanted a colour to highlight that had no shimmer.

I'm getting older and opting for cleaner eye looks for a brighter look. It has become my favourite eyeshadow to use as a blending colour for eye and face. I would describe it to be a brightening non-colour. The soft texture is perfect for blending my face colours and disappears into my skincolor . If you are looking for obvious colour, this eyeshadow is probably not for you. As a soft subtle blending colour for yellow based skintones around NC35, it is perfect. It is so soft & subtle, I can see myself using this into summer (when I can get as dark as NC42).

Ugh, this is the first time that UD has disappointed me! This product does not show up on my lids at all!! For reference, I am Asian with brown hair and eyes and medium skin with yellow undertones. Even after applying multiple layers, it doesn't look like I have anything on. Plus, the texture is super chalky, not rich and blendable, like other UD eyeshadows I own and love.

My favorite eyeshadow out of the dozens of eyeshadows I have, probably because this is the one I use the most; I've made quite a dent in it. This is my go-to shade for a brow highlight, and is also really nice when used on my lid.

I've always liked UD's eyeshadows, so when I had a Sephora GC I figured I'd try their matte, seeing as I was looking for a matte highlighter shadow anyway. Torn between ABC Gum and Foxy for several days, I finally caved on Foxy. Fast forward several months, and I'm on the fence leaning towards lackluster on it. Color is fine-a light yellowish ivory, but it's sort of chalky and it seems to disappear rather quickly on me over the course of the day. It's not a horrible shadow, it's just not great. MAC's Daisychain (alas-discontinued) is similar in color, but shows up easier and lasts longer on my lids.
Maybe I should have gotten ABC Gum!

Oh, I love this! It's finally a vanilla/cream/yellowish nude lid color with real pigment so it doesn't look chalky. I have reddish eyelids and always need to add a cream shadow or some other base to cover it up. This is a clean, fresh, brightening canvas that looks great with black liner or with any contour color. Looooove it. The only e/s I own with a dip in it. Especially great for us 'getting mature' types who might have a crinkle or two that doesn't do well with shimmer.

When I first bought Foxy, I was disappointed. I wanted an off white, your-skin-but-better matte shadow to use as an all over wash and highlighters. Which is exactly what Foxy is. I don't know why I was disappointed, maybe it's because it's just not that sexy of a color because it really is nearly exactly the color of my skin (I'm MUFE Ivory or Porcelain. It's about a shade darker than my skin).

But I find myself reaching for this all the time. When I use shimmery shadows and I don't want to overdo it, I use this to highlight. When I blend a dark shadow too far upward, I use this to tone it down. When my skin is looks icky from lack of sleep, I use this to look wide awake. I've even patted it under my eyes for set my concealer. It looks completely natural, no shimmer, no luminosity, just matte. For a girl with a drawer full of brights, this is a very versatile neutral shadow. I'll definitely purchase again.

I bought this hoping for a nice neutral color to wear on the low-makeup days. It's alright for that, but not as nice as some other, cheaper brands I've tried. It looks alright on my skin, not yellow or anything. But it doesn't blend as nicely as I'd expect from a high-end brand like UD. I find it goes on just a wee bit chalky, which surprised me. I am much more happy with the Physician's Formula matte shadows, especially the Canyon Classics quad. The lightest shade in that quad is similar to UD Foxy, but better. Save your money and go with the PF.

I bought this as an overall wash color but it turned orangey on me =/ so now I use a brand called Barelle that has pressed mineral e/s in a bone shade and it's perfection. I'd return this but I can't find the box...it's been on my swaplist for a while now =/

I bought this because I wanted to try a matte eyeshadow to highlight my brow line and right above my eyes. I read the good reviews on Urban Decay eyeshadow so I thought I would try this. Yuck. It was too yellow or something, it made me look sickly. I don't know if its the matte or just the color, but it didn't work. The texture was very nice though, so I may look at their other matte eyeshadows.

Foxy is a your lids but better matte ivory. In the pan, the color looks darker than it really is due to the shadow’s pigment. If you want something to brighten or even out your eyelids and white is too obvious or fake looking, then this is a good alternative. It works great as a wash underneath eye shadow or alone during my “no makeup” natural days. The texture is soft, blends easily and lasts all day without creasing. This would probably work best on people with medium warm skin while darker skin gals may like this as a highligher for the browbone or inner corner of eyes. If you're lighter than NC20 or if you're cool toned you might want to skip it. For reference, I have medium warm NC30, Stila D skin, brown eyes and hair
