Beauty Product Reviews
Not the best
I love a good matte lip and I love nyx products, but these creams I just could not get in to. I bought these after reading some reviews online about them and their long lasting wear.
I found them to be very drying to the point where I had to put lip balm under and over them (which essentially defeated my matte look) and they still tended to dry out my lips. Also I thought they looked very cheap and they tended to last for about 20 minutes on me without eating or drinking (they were completely gone by the time I finished any sort of food or drink). Also after the lip cream was gone I didn't feel like they even left any color to my lips at all.
I do not plan on repurchasing these any time soon.
Amazing glosses!
I was skeptical about these as I ordered them online without seeing the colors in person. I got strawberry parfait and peach cobbler based solely off of the description and pictures online. When I first opened them both colors were extremely bright in the tube and even when I would first put them on the colors came across very bright. Once I blended the color in however, they were the perfect touch of color that I was looking for.
The two colors I got are less opaque, but I actually like that (I tend to this opaque high shine lip glosses look cheap). And they feel amazing on the lips. They are super moisturizing but not too sticky. I love the color that they give to my lips and they are perfect for many different occasions (including work which is key for me).
I definitely plan to buy more of these lip glosses. There are soo many color choices, which is fantastic! And they are relatively inexpensive for their quality. I recommend to anyone!
Perfect work palette
When I first got this palette I was really disappointed because most of the colors seemed to just blend in with my skin tone and I couldn't even see the shadow. But once I used it more and broke up the powder a bit I realized just how amazingly pigmented these shadows are.
All are matte except for Venus which is a great highlighter and not too sparkly. I use w.o.s. on my lid, naked in my crease, and Venus on my brow line and it is the perfect amount of pigmentation that is appropriate for work but still gives my eyes some definition.
The color stays all day long (and I work 10-12 hour shifts) even without an eye primer. I use this every day and have done so for about two months and have barely even used any up so I'm sure it will last me a long time.
This palette is probably the most expensive makeup product I have bought for myself in a long time, but I do feel like it is worth the price, especially if you are looking for the perfect eye makeup to wear to work.
Love love love
I am in love with this concealer. I have very bad skin almost akin to rosacea, and this concealer does wonders for covering my redness and making my skin look flawless under my foundation!
I will say it is extremely thick, and a very very little goes a long way. I can literally use a dab of this stuff for half of my face. But that's why I love it so much. I have tried so many other concealers that are like water to me they are so thin. This is definitely not that!
I use this both under my eyes and around problem areas. I have never broken out from the product and it covers my dark circles amazingly.
It does run light, but I purposefully buy a slightly lighter tone than my skin because I like my under eyes to look a little brighter. Plus my foundation is a tiny bit darker so they blend perfectly!
I will continue to buy this again and again. For the price, it can't be beat!
I have been using this foundation for about 2 years and it works very well for me. Because of the consistency of the formula it's almost impossible to use a makeup brush to apply it, but regardless I love the way it looks. I have very odd combination skin that tends to start very dry in the mornings no matter how much I moisturize and over the day accumulates oil and grease. This foundation never feels greasy to me and after about an hour completely blends in with my skin and looks like I'm not wearing foundation. Also, after I put it on it makes my skin feel so soft and smooth where other foundations I've used tend to feel odd on my skin. It definitely provides the best coverage I have ever found with a foundation for the price, but I agree with other reviews that it should be used sparingly to start and then built up as needed. But like I said, for the price, I really haven't found a foundation comparable.
I have been using eos lip balm for about 6 months now and I must say they are one of my favorite lip balms. They always makes my lips feel moisturized and I love the packaging and look of the product. I use it every day both with other lip products (I love them with lip stains since they tend to dry out my lips) and by itself. I own almost every flavor and while summer fruit is my favorite they all smell so good. I cannot say enough about these balms!
