NYX Products Review

I was a bit naughty the other week and bought quite a few bits and pieces from NYX cosmetics.

Jumbo Eye Pencils

Milk

Black Bean

Dark Brown

French Fries

Sparkle Nude

Pots & Pans

I apologise for the poor quality photos!:/

I love all these pencils, I was skeptical of the pencils due to the "jumbo" part, I thought it would make the lines to thick and I would be unable to do my waterlines. 

However I was pleasantly surprised as I could draw accurately thin, pigmented lines that looked incredible. 

I did have one issue with then product, my eyeliner did not last longer than 3-4 hours. 

However, these eyeliners are available at www.nyxcosmeticsstore.co.uk for £4.50 (unfortunately that does not include VAT and shipping).

I also bought a "NYX SH-Sharpener" in order to sharpen my beautiful new set of eyeliners.

Available for £3.50.

I got the "NYX STUDIO PERFECT Photo-Loving Primer".

You may have noticed the primers are green and not clear..

I have really red skin due to eczema and this primer is brilliant at hiding the redness before putting on my foundation. I would definitely recommend it to anyone with red patches of skin.

I got this gorgeous blush called "Summer Peach" which is a peachy/pink with gold shimmer in.

It has excellent pigmentation and a silky-smooth texture which makes it easy to glide onto your cheeks. It was very cheap at £5.50.

FINALLY I bought the "NYX Glam Gloss Aqua Luxe"#GLG03 - "Beat Goes On". 

When I saw this product it was the perfect pink lipgloss I had been looking for, but to my dismay, it is hardly pink and all silver. It does slide on easily and glisten i suppose, just not what i wanted/expected of the product. :(

However it only costed £5.50 so it wasn't so bad.

All products purchased from www.nyxcosmeticsstore.co.uk

My tune of the day is:

"She Will Be Loved" by Maroon 5

Thanks for reading guys,
