Review: Nyx Nude on Nude Pallete

Price: $25 @ Ulta.  20 eyeshadows, 10 lip colors.

 Here is the packaging on the outside. There are ten little windows that show the top row of eyeshadows. The packaging has held up really nicely and very sturdy!

 There are 20 eyeshadows and ten lip colors in a little drawer. The colors are actually very saturated and last fairly long. The light ones turn to shimmer and the darker ones fade a bit after a while.  They have a pleasant smell and are not too gloopy :) I wont go into the individual colors because I don't use them enough to go any further.

Haul 21-Needs and Sales

So, I bought most of these with my own money except a few things! Tell me if you want a review or something. I will do a nail polish collection after my birthday. It is towards the end of April so by May 1st!
 NYX: ULTA
*Mega Shine Gloss in Sugar Pie-A perfect shimmery nude color for smokey eyes.
*Mega Shine Gloss in Nude Pink-great creamy (no shimmer) gloss for everyday. I compared it to Beige and this one is a little better for now.
*Mega Shine Gloss in Golden Pink-a deeper pink with a golden shimmer and glimmer! Wonderful to spice up a plain look.h
*Jumbo Eye Pencil in Lime-a universal green to use with mineral eye shadows. This and the next are the only ones I could find with wood instead of plastic.
*Jumbo Eye Pencil in Strawberry Milk-Perfect for intense color that stands out.
*Eyeshadow Trio in TS15 Aloha/Mink Brown/Deep Bronze-So soft and creamy with beautiful colors. This looks similar to Cover Girl's Shimmering Sands I think (I don't have it).
*Ultra Pearl Mania Eyeshadow in Oro Pearl-a gorgeous bronzey gold without glitter but it looks metallic!
ESSENCE: ULTA
*Regular Liquid Eyeliner-I don't have any liquid eyeliner so this extremely matte black is great to try since I needed to get one.
BOOKS: SAM'S CLUB
*The Hunger Games Trio by Suzanne Collins-I love these books and I got them all hard back for $31.54! How cool is that! I needed them!
ELF: WALMART
*Studio Blush Brush- The one I had made my face hurt so I decided to get the studio brand from Elf that is really soft.
*Studio Complexion Brush- the same story for the two powder brushes I have. It looks really fluffy!
So that is my haul and I just want to say, Happy Easter everyone!

  2. NYX Round Lipstick in Gala-Again, first lipstick, so I chose my favorite. It was used :P So I chose my second favorite! I love the light pinkness and the glitter is not over done! It lasts a long time and doesnt have the chemical smell or taste. $3.99 (I got it for $2 because of a deal)
  3. Wet'n'Wild Single Eyeshadow in Nutty-Perfect deep taupe color and I believe it is a dupe for Satin Taupe by MAC. $2
  4. Wet'n'Wild Eyeshadow in Sky Blue-I wanted to get a shimmery light blue to use as color on my waterline without it being green or dark! This was it. $0.99
  5. Essence Blossom Duo in 02 Bloom-a-loom-This is an eyeshadow duo with a matte lilac adn a lilac with blue shimmer, not glitter. They are lilac not purple so they do not  make dark circles look worse. Originally $2.49, Clearance for $1.99
Berrie Bits:

  • Superbowl! I watched it yesterday...Did your team win? Who were you rooting for? I wasnt really rooting for anyone until early on in the game , then I decided to root for the Giants...Yay!
  • Every single blush that I own, until now, was hot pink. Like fushia...Weird.
