NYX Cosmetics Haul

NYX Haul - Lip palettes, cream blushes and eye shadows galore!
As you all know, I am a sucker for a good deal.  In fact, I'll go out of my way to hunt down a fantastic bargain, especially if that bargain is a makeup/skin care product.

Last Saturday I went to one of my favorite malls as I had a date with my dentist.  Since I wasn't allowed to have any coffee before my date, I stumbled into a new store called Funk 'N' Frost Beauty Bar to pass the time.  Not only did this store actually carry one of my favorite makeup lines, Youngblood, but they sell the ENTIRE NYX Professional line as well.  I was in heaven.

There I purchased 2 cream blushes, 2 eye shadow trios and 2 lip palettes.  All for the bargain price of only $30.  (The lip palettes were only $3 a piece!)

First up are the eye trios.  The one on the left is called TS 16 and contains Luster, Platinum Silver and Opal. The one on the right is called TS 17 and contains Iced Mocha, Slate and Frosted Flake.  The green color is so beautiful and I can't wait to try it out.

I actually went in directly for the cream blushes because I'm in love with any and all cream blushes right now.  Not only are they super easy to use but the colors are so vibrant and they can double as a lip gloss in a pinch.  The colors I got are called Hot Pink and Glow.

Okay, the lip palettes.  I am probably the only girl alive in her early 30s that still loves lip palettes.  Seriously!  They are the perfect size to fit in a clutch when going out on the town AND perfect for travel, as they take next to no space.  Plus, for only $3 a piece, you just can't go wrong.  The colors I got are Pinky Promise and  Red Rediscovered.

I then also picked up some hot rollers because my hair is at a very awkward length at the moment AND is super thick.  As much as I love the look of my hair curled with a curling iron, it takes way too long to actually style it this way.  I'm hoping this will make my life easier.  If not, I will be wearing it up everyday for the next 6 months...

Have any of you ladies used the NYX Blush line before?  What's your favorite NYX product?

  5. I LOVE NYX products! We sell them at my work, and they are definitely some of my favorites! NYX Iced Mocha is actually my favorite brow powder of all time, even though it's technically an eyeshadow, lol!

    Great buys! xo
