Mellow Yellow

This is the only single eyeshadow I own from NYX, I just own the Ultra Pearl Mania pigments and Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencils.

I love the Mellow Yellow shade that I have. It's a bright matte yellow that goes on great when you use the Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencil in "Milk" as the base. For the price, the quality is great. It doesn't look chalky when I apply it and goes on smoothly. Definitely going to buy more colors.

Love the effectiveness, but leaves oily residue

Love how it takes basically anything off and lasts me a long time, because you only need a little bit. It seems to leave an oily residue though, even after rinsing. But I would definitely use this product again, even though I always have a hard time finding it.

It's alright

For a cheap adhesive, it's not too bad, but it does tend to wear off after a few hours or sometimes even less. The ends tend to wear away the most. It's only good for an hour or so, but not the whole night/day.

Average, but some good shades

I own the original Palette. The light blues and whites, and also yellows tend to be somewhat chalky. Also, some of the shades are not very pigmented.

The warm side of the palette is great. I love the black and brown shades; they are very pigmented. The purples and pinks are vibrant too. For the price I paid, I think it's not bad at all. I might reach for the Prism Palette or the Warm Palette next time though.

Best Drugstore Nail Polish EVER!

There is nothing I can complain about these polishes. They are so pigmented, you only need one, MAYBE 2 coats. They dry super fast too. I love the non-shimmery ones. I own "Lacey Lilac" and "Pacific Blue." I really would like to own more colors!! I would definitely recommend these!!

One of my favorites

I love Maybelline & love this mascara. Although sometimes, it tends to clump my lashes together. It does make my lashes thicker and longer the way I like. I always find myself reaching for this mascara as well as the Colossal one as well (even though I can't tell much difference in the effect it has.)

Lots of neutrals

It is a bit pricey (about the same for a China Glaze) but I think the product is alright, mainly because they have lots of different & fun shades to chose from. I like the fact that it has A LOT of matte neutral colors too. I own "Ballet Slippers" and "Chinchilly." Drying time seems to be slow on a few of them though. But all in all I would love to own more shades.

Great product

Ahh the infamous "MILK" shade. Bought it from Ulta. Really enjoy it and it doesn't ever make my lids crease when using eyeshadow over it. I think it's a great base that everyone should own for a decent price. It does seem to be harder to blend than usual (I might have just gotten a dud) but all in all I wouldn't mind owning millions of these.

Be careful when using this

Hm not too sure if this is 100% true, but so I've heard that this product contains apricot hauls which can be too abrasive on the skin causing the skin to get micro tears if you do not use this product gently. This can cause the skins pores to enlarge & cause (possible) scarring overtime. So use this product GENTLY and this isn't for everyday use. Try using it once or twice every 2 weeks. It works good somewhat, it tends to exfoliate very well and makes my skin very soft. It seems to irritate my skin though, even when using it gently, so I don't think it's great for sensitive skin.

It has its advantages & disadvantages...

Okay, so honestly, I am not the biggest fan of EOS. It's kind of overrated to me. (just my opinion) It just feels like a waxy coating on my lips, although it does help somewhat, just not enough. I feel that it doesn't get down deep to the problem. This lip balm is great for non-chapped lips, but not dry, flaking lips. As a regular everyday lip balm for protection, I will say this is an alright one. Also, I like the flavor. I've had my EOS "Summer Fruit" flavored balm for over a year now and the scent/flavor is still as vibrant as ever. Usually my other normal chapsticks scent/flavor fades away after a few months, but EOS is pretty great in that area. Packaging is pretty unique as well, and it makes me less vulnerable to losing it. I tend to lose a lot of chapsticks before one year and haven't lost this one yet haha :) I also like using it as a primer for my lips. It's very nice in that area, no greasy feel!
