NOTD NYX 24k Glitter

Hey,

Sorry for the lack of posts it's been a crazy couple of weeks!!!

Today's post is a quick NOTD featuring a gorgeous sparkly glitter from NYX.
The nail polish is 24k Glitter.
It's full of small and larger hexagonal pieces of gold glitter, and makes a lovely top coat!
I got mine from River Island for £4.50.

 

You can check out more from NYX here.

 

What do you think? Are you a glitter fan?

 

Thanks

NYX lipglosses Love's Anthem

I will warn you first that this post is picture heavy!

Here is the post on the NYX lipgloss set that I purchased the other day in TK Maxx, as you can see it retailed at £9.99 for 10 glosses.
I have never tried anything from NYX so when I saw this I had to give them a go. I did think a couple of shades would not be my cup of tea.


But the 5 shades on the right in the image above are my sort of colours. You can see below a swatch of each shade. Even though I was drawn to the paler shades on the right I have to say the swatches 1-3 looked great!


I have swatched each of the colours on the lips in the images below, these are in reverse order of the swatches above.




When I first started to try these out I noted that they smelled pleasant. Nothing overpowering just a pleasant, slightly fruity aroma. All except 5 & 6 applied nicely, these two were not great to apply at all. But I noticed straight away that these are definitely tacky once on your lips....I hate sticky or even tacky lipglosses. You should not have to be concerned that your hair may stick to your lips!..but I am with these on. I am going to persist a little bit with them, but this maybe a deal breaker for me.




Now for the lip swatches, the first couple mostly look the same on but in person they did appear different. I really love the first 5 colours on.














Now for the odd one from the bunch. Its an odd colour, smell and applied rubbish.












Now I was surprised that i really liked the next two colours on, they really aren't my normal choice of gloss at all.










Are you a fan of NYX lipglosses? If you have tried other NYX glosses, are they normally tacky?




Thank You

Look what I found...

Well I am so pleased with these little beauties that I managed to get in TK Maxx yesterday.


They are a NYX lipgloss set that contains 10 colours that was £9.99. Then Nail Inc set for £19.99 that contains 6 full size colours and 4 mini colours.


Which swatches would you like first the Nails Inc or NYX Lipglosses?

I also spotted these great W7 nail sets that had 10 colours for around £16.99.





Have you spotted any good bargains in TK Maxx?

Thank you

NYX Eyeshadow trios

Shockingly I picked these up in January at the IMATS and had completely forgotten to show them off, despite using them regularly.


This was my first try of NYX products and I have to admit I was impressed.


So I picked up two eyeshadow trios. First up is the Triple Eye Shadows for Sexy Babes Eyes Only!



I love the packaging and once opened there is a little mirror on the inside.




This contains a Pearl White, a Silver and a Charcoal,




The eye shadows are quite pigmented, although it took a few swatches of the white to get a good picture.



Next up is the Triple Eye Shadows for Secy Eyes Only,





This contains a Nude, Taupe, and a Dark Brown,




They all are well pigmented and were easy to swatch.



The eye shadows are a lovely smooth formula and blend together easily. I love the way the trios are set up and it's very easy to just pull out one of them to achieve I simple day and full on evening look with both sets.



I actually can't wait to pick up some more of the trios as I fine them so easy to use and the eye shadows are such good quality.



Also keen to try some of their other products.



Any recommendations??
