REVIEW: NYX Bronzer-When Leopard Gets Tan

March 30th, 2011

Before I check on this online supplier of indoor antennas, let me do a quick review of this NYX Tango with Bronzer Powder in When Leopard Gets a Tan shade. This is one of those impulsive purchases I made earlier this year. I just decided to get it considering that it is on sale and comes out cheaper than other Bronzer brands.

Then no one else to blame except me for regretting this purchase. Even if this were priced less than its original price of $16.00, I could have bought a new MAC lippie, instead. But then again, I’d always find ways to use this for highlighting purposes. Yes, no bronzer benefits at all. I am fair with NC20-NC25 shade  so no matter how much product I use, all I see is the shimmer and highlights not the bronze shades. And yes, I hope NYX produces better make-up scents because this one comes out with an odd smell, not to mention the free brush has very sharp and hard bristles.

NYX Loot.

December 2nd, 2010

Last make-up stash to share this week before I head off and check these md clear reviews. You see, NYX lipsticks are staple lipsticks for me because for one they’re very pigmented, relatively long-wearing when you think about the price you paid and yes, you can get them at $2 a lipstick even $1.50 when they go on sale. So they did and I got myself these 3 shades: Thalia, Harmonica and Narcissus to replenish my old ones.

Thalia will still remain to be my favorite NYX shade.
Nyx Loot: Thalia, Harmonica, Narcissus.
Then I got so intrigued by these products that I had to include them in my cart. I did not regret paying extra $18.75 for these 2 new discoveries, they were so good. The Push-up eyebrow pencil will copy the color of your eyebrows (a universal shade), well, at least, it did mine. I have dark brown eyebrows and the opposite side will automatically lifts your brow area, it can also work as a concealer. Then the eyebrow shaper will help shape unruly brows, the downside is you have to reapply it after 4 hours or even less. But then again, these are good buys.

N-Y-X review.

September 6th, 2009

I just realized I never got the chance to review my NYX Haul which I bought during their last huge sale.  So before I check on this life insurance from Wholesale Insurance, here are photos of my NYX Haul and my take on this brand.
bili bili na kayo hahaha!
Lipsticks:
*NYX LIPS: Cocoa, Thalia, Champagne, Snow white
*NYX ROUND: Perfect, Herades, Margarita, Peony, Frapuccino, Summer Love
*NYX Black Label: Tea in the Afternoon, Nude

The ROUND lipstick collection will keep your lips moisturized but the the BLACK LABEL collection has a long-wearing factor. Must-get shades are Thalia, Perfect, Peony, Tea in the Afternoon and Nude. However, you have to re-apply these lipsticks especially after every meals. They are not that long-wearing as compared to other high-end brands.

lipstickSSSS!
Blush:
L-R: DustyRose; Taupe; Nutmeg; Angel

I love their blush and all the shades I got are just perfect. Although, the Dusty Rose is heavily pigmented which can be very pink on my cheeks because I have a fair-complexion, the Angel shade is perfect for that blushing effect. The Taupe shade is good for contouring while the Nutmeg shade is very comparable with the Nutmeg blush of BodyShop. Surprisingly, their blush are long-wearing, no need for touch-ups.Blush, blush!

EYESHADOW:

TRIO:
TS16: Opal/Platinum/SilverLuster
TS08:SpringLeaf/LimeGreen/GreenTea
TS03: Nude/Taupe/DarkBrown
SINGLE:
Flamingo, Champagne, Highlight, Spring Flower, Beauty Queen

Do you want to experiment on different eye shadows which are pigmented and long-wearing but come in such an affordable price, try Nyx shadows! enough said :) . P6030262
