NYX Jumbo Eye Pencils


Yey another NYX review :)
Well I'm really a fan of this brand! Good quality products yet really cheap.
It's really for students& budget friendly shoppers like me who can't afford
those really high end cosmetics. Too bad its not available locally here in
Manila :( boooo but anyway there are tons of online stores where you could
buy NYX items.

Well moving on, I recently purchased online 6 Jumbo NYX eye pencils!!
that's in MILK, ICED MOCHA, FRENCH FRIES, OYSTER, DARK
BROWN & GOLD. I've read from reviews that these are really great eye
shadow base and they are very creamy and so pigmented. So they really
make your eye shadows pop out. And yes I can definitely attest to that!
~ it does crease by the end of the day, specially for those who have oily lids,
and during hot& humid days. But for the price, well its worth it & would
last you a really long time!

I really love MILK - its an all around liner for me.
when you want to look wide awake, perfect for your waterlines.

and I also love ICED MOCHA, its accentuates my eyes&skin tone
gorgeously with just the right amount of shimmer. I could wear it
alone, whenever I'm running late :)

so here are the swatch of the NYX Jumbo Eye Pencils:



I bought these lovely items again online ~ getsophisticated
& it's priced at 250 php each :)

Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler



After a long time of saying no, I finally gave in to temptation and bought myself my first Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler! :) Uhm I've been using my Revlon eyelash curler for the longest time since I was in high school and replacing it every so often. I was satisfied with it considering the price because it's really cheap and it does the job.

I've been hearing so many raves about Shu Uemura as the holy grail of a lot of ladies
and a tool adored by professional makeup artists and celebrities world-wide that's why I've decided to give it a try. Uhm but I've read in a lot of blogs that this curler pinches the eyes a lot, but not in my case I guess it really depends on the shape& the size of the eye because mine is kinda big and my lashes are a bit long. Anyway remember to always be careful when using eyelash curlers.


Well enough said, I'm really loving this curler! :) It accentuates my lashes gorgeously. No regrets! But I might try the Shiseido one next time.

* I bought this in an online store - iloveyougoodbuy
& it comes with an extra silicone rubber pad.
at only 750php a lot cheaper than mall price.

NYX Ultra Pearl Mania



Yehey! My first ever post :)
This is my mini NYX Ultra Peal Mania Haul.
I got them in 4 shades - Pearl, Nude, Yellow Gold& Mink.

Basically these are a bunch of loose eyeshadow with lots of
shimmer. They are very long lasting, easy to blend and are
very vibrant. Plus it comes in 30 great shades so you got so
many colors to choose from! And its cheap, priced at
170php each.

Got this from an online seller - walkinclosetstore

Well the only drawback is the packaging, it comes in a small
plastic vial which is so messy& dispenses the product badly.
Uhm so I'm thinking of transferring them in a different
packaging. :)
