You guys know that I like to share great products that I find and love. So I was recently looking at these NYX products on my makeup shelf and wondered why I hadn't shared these on my blog yet. I know that I don't do a lot of makeup reviews even though I absolutely love makeup and wear it everyday but when I find something I like, I usually share it. So today is the day...behold the power of NYX.
If you've never heard of this brand, I can say that I heard about NYX a few years ago when I went looking on Twitter for a good brand of makeup products that don't cost crazy amounts of money because I am not paying $50 or $80 for an eye shadow palette. Not gonna happen. I didn't need to though because NYX has several great small and larger palettes and they are so affordable. Plus their eye shadow goes on really nicely and stays put all day.
Then I tried the concealer stick that I didn't know I needed and loved it. I use light because I'm a pretty fair complexion and it works well with the foundation I use. It blends well and stays on all day.
The last two things I wanted to share were the Shine Killer makeup primer and the Matte Finish setting spray.
I've tried quite a few makeup primers and I like the ones that glide on and feel like a thin film of baby power on your skin. If you put this on under your foundation, it fills in the pores, wrinkles and makes your skin ready to add the foundation. Plus it helps the foundation stay in place and go on evenly. I love this stuff.
The Matte Finish finishing spray is a spray for your face after you've applied all your makeup. It sets the makeup in place and the matte finish helps keep you from shining from excess oils, longer than you would have without it.
I never used to use a makeup primer or finishing spray years ago until I received samples of them in the mail and loved them. Now I can't imagine not using them every day.
When I searched out this brand all the different articles and reviewers stated that this makeup will rival the more expensive brands in quality but with better prices. Now I don't know from experience if this stuff is as good as the really expensive makeup brands but everything I've tried has been great so I wanted to share it in case some of you were were looking to update your makeup bags.
I have not seen those here, but they look good
ReplyDeleteI really like them.
DeleteWhen it is great, and less expensive, a win indeed.
ReplyDeleteThat's always a good thing.
Deletethank you to share your experience with your favorite brand.
ReplyDeletehave a great day
Thank you.
DeleteI have heard of this brand, so thanks for the review.
ReplyDeleteIt's a pretty good brand.
DeleteI love to learn about new products. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to hear that.
DeleteYep, spending less for something good is always a win!
ReplyDeleteIt sure is.
DeleteThanks Mary, I don't use much makeup but I'm always looking for new things that I do use
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome.
DeleteIt is years since I have worn make-up but inexpensive and effective is ALWAYS a winner.
ReplyDeleteOh I agree.
DeleteInteresting. Just a few minutes ago, I was looking for an affordable eyeliner and this brand came up as one of the number one picks. I was going to buy it, now you have me wanting to look at more from the line. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYou're very welcome. Everything that I've tried so far from them I've liked.
DeleteI don't wear a lot of make-up.
ReplyDeleteBut enjoyed reading your review.
All the best Jan
Thank you.
DeleteI love your statement, then I tried the concealer I didn't know I needed. Happens all the time to me. I should try their eyeliner. I pay 22 for mine.
ReplyDeleteI hope you do try it. I like all the products I've tried so far.
DeleteI've been thinking about going back to wearing make up. One of the reasons I stopped was the price. I will have to look into this brand. Thanks for the recommendation.
ReplyDeleteThe price of some of the brands is crazy.
DeleteNYX is good stuff. My daughter loves it. Ulta usually has it on sale for buy 1 get another for 1/2 off, so we do a lot of our purchases for NYX there.
ReplyDeleteOh that's a great find. I'll have to shop there.
DeleteI don't wear makeup often but when I do, I use the primer. I never understood why I would need it but now that I'm old it covers a lot of uneven skin tone and other skin issues.
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried this brand yet though.
Karen @ For What It's Worth
I agree about the primer. I just like how it makes foundation goes on so smoothly.
DeleteI love winning Amazon gift cards! I have a really long "save for later" list on there. :)
ReplyDeleteLindsi @ Do You Dog-ear? 💬
Yeah my list is getting pretty long too.
DeleteI haven't heard of this brand. Honestly, I have no idea what I am doing with makeup :)
ReplyDeleteI've watched a few youtube videos and am still trying to get my eyeshadow to look like it does for them.
