Nyx round lippie

Whoops.. it's been two months since my very last post. Sorry for my hiatus.. I've been doing some project that made my blogging time become so tight.

Ok, for today let me do swatches from my new added Nyx round lipstick collection . I guess everybody have already know how creamy, pigmented and easy to glide the Nyx lipstick is. So, no more review for this one, just color swatches. I hope the picture is clear enough.. enjoy :)
Oya, you can always click the picture for a larger view..



In this picture, i use Nyx Mars and Nyx Tea.. Mars looks very pink on my lips but not in a bad way..
Since I'm not really into a -pinkish only- shade, adding some Tea will be perfect to makes the color appearance a lil bit brown.

Nyx Single Eyeshadow

I heard so many great reviews 'bout the NYX single eyeshadow for their pigmentation and buttery soft texture. So when the NYX website was having a clearance sale on last March i decided to grab some things from them. I was planning to buy a Cream Cheese color at the first place. But when the sale is on, i ended up drooling on the whole package contains 48 shades of eye shadows. Yup you heard me right, 48.. LOL. The price was $43 for 48 pieces. That was a shocking cheap price huh?

The price that NYX offered were actually a very very good bargain, if you do live in the state. The sale applied for online buyers only, and they don't ship internationally as well.
Yes, It's pretty sad for international customer like me. But somehow, like many people said, there are thousand roads to Rome. So i won't give up on the first road.
In the middle of my drooling period, i received an unexpected massage from my sweet friend in FD forum (thank you Merry). She offered me to join her order and arranged a shipment to her relative's residences in US. In that case the package would be sent to Indonesia by her relative via USPS. But of course this will included an extra cost. Hell yeah, i said ok.

I was so excited. After waiting for about 1 month (I've been very patient), finally the package arrived. We had to paid almost twice the value of the item, included the shipping cost from US-Indonesia. Not to mentioned tax and custom duties. Sucksss...
But that's okay.. The price is still a good deal for me. Here in Indonesia, the single eyeshadow sold for $7 each in NYX counter. Non sense.

So.. after a long time waiting, here they are.
Please enjoy, as much that i do.

Need to conceal?

I have just received my Nyx Concealer In Jar package this morning. I bought the medium shade. In the jar, the color seems a lil bit too red for my yellow undertone. But once applied it blended in nicely. The texture is very creamy, smooth, light weight and easily spread. I used it to conceal my under eye bag and dark circle, and the result was surprisingly great. With $5 price (i paid for IDR 75.000) this miracle in a jar definitely a great deal.
What i don't like from this product is the jar packaging. It is not the most hygienic way to store this concealer. I guess the best way to use this concealer is by using brush for application.
