Hey!
So recently I was talking to my friend Saz about NYX Cosmetics and after seeing countless reviews/hauls on Youtube on NYX I decided it was finally time for me to check out some of their products. I decided I wanted to purchase my products from a UK based company, to avoid the hassle of expensive shipping/coverting prices etc. However, Saz talked me out of it and suggested i got my NYX from Cherry Culture as they sell NYX for much cheaper than any UK website does. I went ahead and ordered a couple of products, I didn't go crazy just incase I didn't like their makeup...however i'm kinda wishing I ordered a bit more!

Heres what I ordered...(sorry about the bad lighting/awful swatches..I was in a rush)

Mega Shine Lip Gloss in Biege



I LOVE LOVE LOVE this lipgloss, the name may be 'beige' but it is most definatley the most gorgeous pink! the consistency is lovely, not thin...not sticky, just the perfect gloss! I'm the a great fan of the taste though...I will definatley be buying more of these glosses, any suggestions on some must have colours?..oh and I got it for $3.75

Round Lipsticks in Indian pink, Narcissus and Fig



The swatches of these are Left to Right: Indian Pink, Narcissus and Fig. They were $1.99 and oh my god, that price is RIDICULOUSLLLLLY AMAZING for such beautiful lipsticks. They are so soft, creamy and moisturising and the colours are brilliant. Narcissus has become my favourite pink lipstick. In my next order I will definatley be buying a back up, along with a tonne of more colours! :)

Round Lip Gloss in Sorbet



I picked up Sorbet for £1.75 and I have to admit..I HATE this gloss, there is nothing wrong with the colour, it is lovely..just the consistency is awful! this gloss reminds me of something i'd get free with a magazine when i was like 12! and it tastes just awful! Big thumbs down from me on this one! but it was so cheap, I can't complain TOO much!

Soft Matte Lip Cream in Tokyo



I had incredibly high hopes for this product after seeing so many rave reviews on the Soft Matte Lip Creams, however I don't know what it is about this product, I just can't love it :( Tokyo is a beautiful colour, there is just something I don't like about it (not sure what it is though..freak) It also feels rather drying on my lips. I admit I haven't given this product much of a chance yet. I will give it some more time and see how I get on! Also, I got this for $4.50

Jumbo Pencil in Milk



EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE :D (noises of an excited Melissa) I LOVE THIS! Of course for my first purchase from NYX i had to buy a jumbo pencil in Milk! I think pretty much everyone had this product, definatley going to be getting some more in my next order! any suggestions on colours? This was $2.99

Lipliner in Dolly Pink



I haven't used this lipliner much yet but it really is the perfect 'dolly pink' lip liner colour. From what I have gathered so far it seems a little drying! however it is still rather lovely...and what a cute name! this was $1.75 so again, cheap as chips!

Hope that wasn't too boring! comment me with any suggestions on what I should order next, I definatley want to give some of their eye/cheek products a go next!

Thanks for reading :)
