NYX birthday haul!

Yes I know this is a bit late considering my birthday was March 5th. 

Here are a few things that I received from my mum on my birthday! 


First thing I got is the NYX round lipstick in pumpkin pie. This colour is such a perfect peachy nude that would suit every skin colour. This lipstick was somewhere from AUD $8.95-12.95 (I can't remember the actual price) which is expensive to me considering I can get them online for $3. 





It's that 'my lips but better colour' it suits my lips really well I think. This lipstick is very creamy and the pigmentation is amazing. Although, the lasting power is not very good. But I do not mind reapplying every now and then. 

Next I got a blush in peach (even though it looks bright pink to me) 

Me, not knowing how extremely pigmented this blush was decided to get a whole lot on my brush and apply it straight to my face. Bad idea! It's such a lovely pink blush which I am in desperate need off since I don't own very nice pink blushes. 


Here is just one quick swipe of the blush to show you the colour. 


And here it is blended in, it also has a lovely sheen to it!


Mum also purchased one of the Love in Paris palettes in Madeleines and Macaroons. 

I'm so happy she chose this palette for me because it has come in handy so much since it is a everyday palette. The colours in this are so useful and gorgeous. 

The eyeshadow are a mixture of shimmers and mattes. I love how there are some light browns, golds, a black and then some pink/peach shades to mix things up.

The swatches that I will be adding below are only one swipe. 

Top 3 

The first colour which is a white is the perfect matte highlight colour. The brown is good for the crease, to add some definition. This colour is matte. And the gold is also good for a highlight and perfect on the lid. This colour is shimmer. These three colours could make a whole eye look. 

Middle 3 

The first colour here is a black, you can use this as an eyeliner if you are wanting a more softer look. This colour is matte. The middle colour is hard to explain, looking at it, it looks green. It's a goldy green colour and is the perfect colour for a highlight if you into more of an extreme highlight. This colour is shimmer.  The last colour is a light brown again, although this has a sheen to it. Perfect for the crease. 

Last 3 

These colours are all matte. They are the girly colours of this palette. The first is a peach which can be used for all over the lid and even in the crease. The middle is a brick kind of colour, and the last is a soft baby pink which can add a pop of colour under the waterline or for something different, a highlight.  

Lastly, I have been wanting the milk eye shadow stick forever. But everytime I go they are always sold out. But to my surprise. I open my present to find this lovely thing! 


Which is absolutely amazing considering they are usually around AUD $10 each, my mum got this pack for $30 (amazing) 

The pack contains 6 colours that are soooo useful. Usually when you see a pack like this, they add bad colours. But I have used all the colours in this pack. 



(Left to right) 

The first colour is Eletric blue which is the perfect name for this. It's a bright blue with a little bit of a shimmer to it. Next is Yogourt which is a pinky champagne colour, so pretty. Next is Iced Mocha and is a darker chocolate brown. Fourth is Sparkle Nude, is a shimmery nude. Next is Milk, a plain white. The perfect base for bright colours. And the last is Black Bean which is a pure black. 



And that's it for this post. I'm inloooove with my NYX goodies and so glad you can purchase them in Target in Australia now. Best thing to come to Australia defiantly.
