Overveiw and Review-New York Colors

  Hey hey hey!  I'm back!  I want to start a new mini series of overviews (collections of one category) and review the products loosely for time and length matters! I will link all the previous O&Rs in the posts, but not this one because it is the first!
  Nail Polish: In a Minute-$1.72 @ Walmart
  • 247 Prince Street- A shimmery purple that is kinda sheer, but layers well. 9/10
  • 296 Water Street Blue- A creamy bright blue (My fav) That only takes two coats to be beautifully opaque. 10/10
  • 206B East Villiage- A shimmery teal that is not as opaque as 296 but more than 247. 9/10
  Nail Polish: Regular-$.93 @ Walmart
  • 105 Starry Silver Glitter- Great for tying together ombre or sponging. hard to get off though. 9/10
  • 146A Love Letters- Perfect for French tips or really nude nails. 10/10
  • 133 Purple Pizzaze Frost- A unique royal purple tye dye kinda color that looks really good! 10/10
  • 112 Times Square Tangerine Creme- This is a neon orange that is kinda weird and turns a gross color ofter a few days...6/10
  Face:
  • Blushable Cream Stick in Big Apple Blush- I love this! It is a gorgeous mauvy kinda pink with no shimmer. The texture is amazing and I highly recommend! 10/10
  • Cover Stick in Yellow- Sometimes it help, sometimes it doesn't. It wears off and creases easily... 5/10
  • Loose Powder in Translucent- The only problem with this is that it irritates my skin on sensitive days. 9/10
  Eyes:
  • Kohl Eye and Brow Pencil in 925 Sable- These aren't my choice eyeliners but I can work with them. 7/10
  • Eyeshadow Color Wheel in Beyond the Sea and Purple Rain- These are soft and pigmented and if you can find them, try them! 10/10
  • Eyeshadow Single in 905 Gossip Girl- A gorgeous pinky champagne that works for the lid or browbone! Not as pigmented as other shadows but it works. 9/10
  Lips:
  • Lip Tins in Sugar Angle, Sugar Baby, Sugar Kiss- These are all kinda sticky and goopy but they moisturize nicely. 7/10
  • Liquid Lip Shine in 555u Iced Orchid- I love this. it is smooth and creamy and one of the best! 10/10
  • Extreme Lip Glider in Park Ave Pink- A beautiful baby pink that glides on and tastes like watermelon 10/10
  • Smooch Proof Lip Stain in Champagne Stain- This does not last. That is what a stain does. It smells, looks and feels great. But it doesn't stay on. 7/10
  • Long Wear Color in Berry Rich- I love this formula! It is creamy, moisturizing, and long wearing! I got this purply shade though, so I don't wear it as much. 10/10
  • Regular $1 in Petal- These smell so bad! They are really sheer but greasy so to get color you need to layer on a bunch but then it is gooping on your lips. 2/10
SO that is my overveiw! Tell me below, what your favorite NYC product is or what you are thinking of buying...Have a good day everyone!h

Products I Regret Buying

PRODUCTS:
NYC Lipstick in Retro Red and Petal-These both have a chemical gros smell and the red one stains, and the pink one highlightes the linges in the lips and is so shimmery it looks white! i use it as a blush base but the red is useless.
Ulta Lipstick in Nude-This is a very brown lipstick and it is creamy and nice but the color is aweful. I use it as a base for my blushes as well. lol
WetnWild Nail polish in Party of 5 Glitters-The glitter is very spread out and chips but doesnt come off. It also takes a long time to dry whereas the clear did not. The clear also took off my nail polish...
Almay 1Coat Dial Up-This clumps my lashes together and smells aweful and wore off my eyelashes in about 2 hours. It also irritates my eyes. ):
Sally Girl Bronzer-Here is the link to my review.
NYC concealer in Yellow-This wears off very easily and hardly covers. I can work with it under FOUNDATION not another concealer. And it can work with the blending with the crease brush but still wish I had gotten the skin color.
NYC White eyeliner-No Pigment, and irritates my eyes so much. I mush prefer Wet n Wild
NYC Lip tin in Sugar Angel-This is nice but it is so gloppy that it is so hard to get it to look good. Same goes for the red one, Sugar Baby.
Claire's Nail polish in Snowball-This is half dried up and half separated into a yellow liquid and a white goo... ):
ELF Concealer-I think that this is just the wrong shade. I have it in Light beige and it looks orange. They have a lighter shadem, Ivory, and I am pretty sure that is what I am!

Thanks for joining me on this litte rant and I hope you all liked! If you make a post on it, leave the link down bellow!
