I have to say that it’s my first
time to try NYX products. My makeup brands have always been Mary Kay and Urban
Decay plus the bonuses I get for reviewing samples. I found quite a bargain from
Beauty’s Treasure Shop and I think no other shop will be able to give out so
many freebies. Ladies, my advice would be to keep an eye out for this shop, you
get absolutely good value for your buck!
On to my haul, there’s quite an
assortment for the lips, eyes and cheeks. This has got to be the ultimate
bargain haul. To begin with, there is a matte lipstick in Audrey that’s a pale
pink shade, almost like old rose. I’m not so sure that this matches my skin
tone though. I do have high hopes for the Soft Matte Lip Cream in Antwerp and
Monte Carlo. They smell good, not like the boring lipstick scent that I
normally observe. Antwerp is close to Audrey in a soft pink shade, Monte Carlo
is a ruby red shade and both have long-lasting power. I might just want to give
these a try.
The eye palettes are just something for me, as if they were just waiting for me to come along. They come from the Caribbean collection and have an assortment of smoky eye shades and also evening glam in violets. I Dream of St. John is just the right smoky eye palette for those who want to try it and I Dream of Barbados has violets with hints of shimmer.
To be honest, this is my first encounter with a Mosaic Powder Blush, this is the Spice variety. I normally just use a peach blush and that works on me. But right now I feel like I want to experiment. So what does a Mosaic Powder Blush do? It is “a medley of 9 matte and shimmery colors creates a flush of color and dazzling glow for every skin tone. Use to highlight, enhance, brighten and bronze. Each mosaic of color blends beautifully with magical results”. Sounds promising doesn’t it? Let’s see what a swirl of this can do.
Lastly, there is the Cream Blush
in Tickled. Upon closer inspection, the pigments have fine gold shimmer and
have a touch of elegance about it. I have yet to find out how it will fare against the ordinary powder blush that I've been using.
Like I said, it's my first time to try out NYX. What should I expect? Care to share your thoughts? Have a good day!
