First NYX Haul & Review!

                 I've been wanting to try NYX makeup for a very long time so when I saw that ULTA was having a BOGO 1/2 NYX products, I ordered these products right away! I don't live near a store that carries NYX products so I made sure I did a lot of researching before picking the products because I knew I wasn't going to be able to return them. Luckily, I was satisfied with everything that I bought and I plan to buy more NYX products in the future :) If you've never tried NYX products, I highly recommend them :) especially the lipsticks!         
Extra Creamy Round Lipsicks (reg. $4, after BOGO 1/2 they were $2)

PROS: 
  •  super creamy 
  •  very pigmented 
  •  doesn't feel dry on the lips
  •  wide range of colors
  •  inexpensive
  •  cute packaging <3

CONS:
  • melts easily :(

Mega Shine Lip gloss in Beige ($2.50 after BOGO 1/2)
I find it strange to me that the name of this lip gloss is called Beige because the color does not represent the name lol. Beige is a warm, medium pink color. It looks amazing over nude lipsticks! it's definitely my favorite everyday go-to lip gloss. The formula isn't sticky & it smells yummy too :)
P.S: ISN'T THE PACKAGING JUST SO CUTE ?! :D

Powder Blush Swatches
Pinched (top):  peachy pink w/ gold shimmer ($5)
Bourgeois Pig (bottom): classic pink w/ a satin finish ($2.50 after BOGO 1/2)

I really liked the formula of these blushes; it's blendable and doesn't look harsh against the skin. Both shades were very pigmented and I think they would look good on any skin tone!

Collection Noir Liquid Black Liner ($6)

If you couldn't already tell from the picture above, this liquid liner is AMAZING. I've worn it everyday since I've bought it. It's super pigmented, easy to use, and is perfect to make a winged look. What I love most about it is that you only need to use one swipe because it's that pigmented. Another amazing thing about this eyeliner is that you have the choice of making a thick or thin line. Last but not least, it stays on all day for me :)
