Lipstick -NYX - #635 Doll
Pixelatedash 6/17/2012 7:54:00 AM
This is a lovely pigmented dark pink. Swiping this on your lips at the end of the day transforms any neutral look to evening glam... And that is my only problem with this lippy- it's a bit too glam for me for work! I'd love to be able to wear it more often! It's soft, creamy and with the help of a tiny bit of lip balm it transforms my dry mistreated lips. Am contemplating buying a backup!

Eyeliner -Revlon - ColorStay Liquid Eye Pen
Pixelatedash 6/17/2012 7:37:00 AM
I can only assume that revlon were being sarcastic when they named this 'blackest black'. It's a watery grey colour at best! I find it difficult to apply, takes lots of going over the same spot to get it to show. I can't remember how much it cost me, but I'm pretty sure it was more than AUD$20... So I can't bring myself to throw it out. Am going to try layering a dark black eyeshadow over the top to see if that helps at all! I don't recommend this to anyone!

Brows -E.L.F. - Eyebrow Kit
Pixelatedash 6/17/2012 7:25:00 AM
Great product- the light is a good match for my dark blonde hair. This doesn't replace my usual brow tint, but is good for filling in the gaps and filling out my brows. I find I have to use a clear mascara over the top- the gel doesn't tame enough for me (and my brows aren't unruly!) but that's not a dealbreaker. The brush that comes with it does the job, and i like the stiff bristles on the angled brush, but I find it's just too small to use easily on a daily basis. My only one gripe is that the powder section was ever so slightly damaged when I got it- and even with being super careful with it, the powder bit is fast eroding and chipping away from around the damaged part. All in all it does what I want it to do and with the price in mind I would repurchase.

Blush -NYX - Angel

This is the blush I reach for everyday. It leaves a gorgeous glow on my nc20 skin- very natural and flushed, and definitely office appropriate. I don't find it powdery at all, in fact I love the satiny feel. I haven't noticed any shimmer in mine, but after reading other reviews I will have to go check mine again! Will repurchase for sure!
