NYX mini haul!!

So I have been on the hunt for NYX Narcissus round lipstick for months. My ulta has never had it in stock and I really don't like ordering off line (mainly because I hate paying the shipping price when I can buy it in stores). I FINALLY found it a few days ago. Well NYX was having a BOGO 50% off and I just could not pass it up. So here is what I got.

I am in love with this NYX Stay Matte, Not Flat powder foundation. I have never used a powder foundation, but have heard great things about it so I thought i would give it a go. When used alone, it has very minimal coverage. Its great if you're having a "I don't want to wear makeup, but if I don't wear something ill scare people" day. But I like to use this as an everyday thing, so I layer it over my Garnier BB Cream, and it has an amazing finish!! 
Shade: Soft Beige 
Price: $10 




This is the NYX Bronzer and Blusher combo. I actually picked up the wrongs shade in this. I want Marabella (shown above) and I picked up Phi Phi Island. Phi Phi Island is very pretty but Marabella is matte and thats what I wanted. Ulta does allow returns, so Im going to return it soon. I cant tell you if it works well on the skin, but I did want to mention it in this haul.
Shade: Marabella
Price: $9


I have FINALLY found it. This is NYX round lipstick in Narcissus. It is a gorgeous barbie pink. It is very bright, so if bright colors scare you, this is not for you. The texture is so smooth and creamy. I will definitely be buying more in these in the future.
Shade: Narcissus 
Price: $4

My first lip liner ever. I know, I know its kinda crazy. Ive seen many videos where people actually use the liner as the lip color itself, with some clear gloss. The name is spot on, as this is a very good rose color! The texture was great for a pencil. Sometimes pencils can be very harsh and this was very creamy and soft.
Shade: Rose
Price: $3.50


NYX is an amazing brand. The prices are awesome, but the quality is that of a high end brand. If you haven't already tried this brand, do yourself a favor and go do it now!!!
