NYX Black Label & Round Lipsticks Swatches

Hello darlings!

A few weeks ago i bought some of NYX products via Beauty Joint, as recommended by my gorgeous dear friend , Katrina from http://seenamonshugar.blogspot.com/ . Thanks darling!

I got my parcel about 10 days after ordering. They ship internationally. The total price was around $97 including shipping+insurance (approximately around RM300) for 24 items! can u believe that? I was beyond happyyy!

I got some lipsticks, cream blushes, powder blushes, lipglosses and lip creams.

Today i'm gonna do a review and swatches of the lipsticks that i got.


Black Label Lipsticks



Swatches of Black Label Lipsticks in Diva, Orchid and Cherry

Review : I really love the texture of this lipstick. They glide on smoothly on my lips, moisturizing and the colours show up nicely. A great quality and affordable lipstick!
All of them have a light fruity scent (macam bijik wangi) which doesn't bother me at all.

Diva- looks somewhat brownish-pinkish on me
Orchid - a pretty bold violet-pink color with blue sheen
Cherry - a nice red with some blue undertone
Repurchase : Definitely yes!



NYX Round Lipsticks



With flash

Under natural lighting

Review :  Really affordable high quality lipsticks. They glide on really smoothly and moisturizing as well. They have a little funny scent which is tolerable to me.

Chloe - a very nice magenta or purplish red
Chaos - a very pigmented red with blue undertone
Pandora - shimmery purplish colour
Jupiter - orange-pink lipstick with a frosty finish. Not so much staying power
Terra cotta -  very pigmented reddish-brown
Blush - a pretty peachy pink


Repurchase : Yes yes yes! i'd love to try other colours


XOXO,

*sorry i'm really bad with dates and prices


Makeup Forever Concealer Palette



swatches
The colours are quite pigmented and the coverage is buildable. I think blending with fingers will help to melt the concealer's texture down a bit and it will blend beautifully. I use this palette on clients with very bad dark circles, acne scarring and uneven skin tones.





Bourjois Bronzing Powder


My favourite bronzing powder ever hands down. I love the sweet smell that it has and the packaging is sooo cute! It looks like a real chocolate! My sister is coming back from the UK so she might have bought some of these to bring back to Malaysia. Let's hope she does.


Inglot blusher #58

The colour payoff is really great! i only need a tiny bit for the colour to show on my cheeks. I really love the finish. Semi matte and luminous, not shimmery or glittery. Just make sure you are light-handed with this one. It gives u that healthy glowy look on your cheeks.

Laura Mercier Lipgloss in Bonbon
My favourite lipgloss of all time. It smells like caramel, tastes good as well and most importantly it is non-sticky. I hate sticky lipglosses. I really love that it is coral+a bit pinkish in colour.


I used this lipgloss on her. So many people commented and asked about her lip colour.
I used Inglot #58 blusher and Laura Mercier Bon Bon lipgloss on the bride



Kiehl's Rare Earth Pore Minimizing Lotion with Amazonian White Clay

I've tried this product for a good 5-6 months on my clients who tend to have oily skin, basically concentrating on the T-zone. I want their makeup to stay longer. It really helps to mattify oily skin and the Amazonian White Clay that they use in this product helps to absorb excess oil.

Urban Decay All Nighter Spray
I love this spray. It really helps to hold your makeup longer. It is a must-have in my makeup kit.


Mario Bedescu Drying Lotion
Zip zap the zitsss.. That's what it does. I always apply this lotion whenever i found red painful bumps trying their best to emerge and to get to the surface of my skin. It works on me.
It has a layer of clear yellowish fluid on top and pink sediment on the bottom. I use baby cotton buds to get to the bottom of the bottle and get the pink sediment and then i carefully pace it on my zits overnight.

Urban Decay Primer Potion
Need i say more about this product? All makeup gurus out there have probably done thousands of reviews on this one. It's a must-have in my makeup kit. I love this primer because it brings out the true colour of my eyeshadow and that my eyeshadow stays put all day. It really matters to me.


Till then,
xoxo
