Growing Addiction

Hey there sisters!

Was inspired by my 50 followers to update this blog again! weee!

Wonder whats behind the title of this entry?


its because i got my 3rd loot of NYX stuff from Lelila this morning and i fell inlove!!


Happen to see the brand all over ebay.ph and when i was in the States before but i just ignored them thinking theyre no good.


But since reviews were all over GirlTalk, i decided to give it a try.


first batch i ordered were several shades of the Jumbo Pencils -- which were nice, but i dont get to use often coz im not used to putting eyeshadows everytime i go out.
(this explains why my lemming to own all colors just died)


here's my mini NYX collection (which will definitely grow bigger soon rawwr):





NYX Round Glosses:


L to R :
Strawberry -- Ballerina Pink -- Peach




from L to R:


(pardon me but im super bad at describing colors, but ill do my best, promise hehe!)


Strawberry - sheer dolly pink with chunkier shimmer than ballerina pink.


Peach - fresh pinky peach tone (my fave!! gives the freshest hue to my lips!)


Ballerina Pink - dolly pink with fine shimmer


What i LOVE:
** no stickiness at all
** colors are super nice!!
** not sure if it moisturizes but it doesnt make my lips dry/chapped
** for the price, staying power is pretty good!
** they come cheap! (Php 200.00 each!)


What i HATE:
** theres just 1 thing i dont like about NYX round glosses, im kinda overwhelmed by the scent that reminds me of lemon dishwashing liquid hehe!

NYX Megashine Glosses :

from Top to Bottom:

Beige -- Perfect -- Pink Frost



from L to R :


Beige - Mauvey Nudey Pink ( great MLBB shade!)


Perfect - sheer nude with shimmer (best MLBB shade for those with naturally pigmented lips!)


Pink Frost - soft pink with fine shimmer ( i use this to tone down the color of dark lippies)


What i LOVE:
** love this for all the same reasons i stated on the round glosses! (
** the scent! smells like BigBoy Bubblegum (do you remember this girls? hehe)! yummy!




What i HATE:
** and theres nothing about megashine glosses that i hate.. :)




NYX Creme Blushes :


Top : Natural
Left : Glow
Right : Hotpink


from L to R :


their names speak for themselves.. hehe!


Natural - im not sure if i like this shade, but it nice and it looks uhmm.. yeah, natural, gives a soft color on the cheeks. i prefer bolder shades of blushes.

Glow - glow!! better than NARS Pennylane IMO.

Hotpink - in terms of the consistency, i noticed this is the creamiest among all three (the other two have balm-ish cream consistency), would actually form stiff peaks when you dip your finger/brush in it.. in actual, this looks a lil close to the scaryness of NARS Cactus Flower from the pan, but when applied, it is super nice, it is best to use a stippling brush for this one though coz its really pigmented, one pan would last a long time for sure!


What i LOVE:
** the consistency -- theyre not oily/goopy.
**very easy to blend
**nice shades
** no fragrance
** staying power is also good! it gets a 4 out of 5 for me!
** again, the price, Php 360.00 each!!


What i HATE:
NONE! :)




And that sums up my post regarding NYX stuff!!

Expect more posts this coming days sweeties!




Peace & Love!
