Some new stuff, This time I got some NYX.

NYX Cosmetics is a brand that I have heard a lot of good reviews about. This brand is cheap and a lipstick will cost you only $4.00, but I have heard that the quality is supposed to be very good.

I did take advantage of the NYX Sale at Cherryculture.com a while ago and I bought some items for 50% off.

Since the products didn't cost much I decided to be a little bit daring and pick out colors that I normally doesn't wear so I went for the reds and pinks.

So here's a list (and a picture) of what I picked up:


Mosaic Powder in Dare. This is a tan-pink blush with some shimmer in it.

Two Jumbo Eye Pencils in Strawberry Milk (shimmery light pink) and Slate (shimmery dark grey).

Three single eyeshadows in Platinum Pink (shimmer/glitter light pink), Fahrenheit ( a sort of rosy bronze color) and White Pearl (frosty white).

Three Lip Pencils in Hot Red (red), Tangerine (peachy pink with shimmer) and Mauve (it is like its name, mauve).

Two Round Lipsticks in Thalia (mauve) and Sun Flower (red coral).

I was also sent a little freebie, a bubblegum lip balm. I like the scent of this, it's bubblegum so I have actually used this a couple of times since I got it.


I got a little makeup happy and decided to put together an eye makeup using as many of the products as I could get away with. So I used the Strawberry Milk Jumbo Eye Pencil as a base and then all three eyeshadows. I didn't like the result so I added Satin Taupe Eyeshadow by MAC in the crease and Raven Kohl Power Eye Pencil also from MAC as a liner.

The mascara that I used is Double Extension Beauty Tubes Mascara by L'oréal. Lets just say that this mascara and I aren't the best of friends just yet. I am still on the fence about this one.
