NYX Round Lipstick


NYX Round lipsticks are great. I recommend them for their wide selection of shades at an affordable price. They are extremely creamy and moisturizing. The color payoff is great. The only thing I don't like about them is how easily they transfer off the lips. On their own, they don't last very long (depending on the shade), so I definitely recommend using a lip pencil and lip gloss with these.

My most favorite shades are definitely Eros and Black Cherry.






Lashes

I just received my order from Madame Madeline. Its a website that carries false eyelashes. This is the second time I've ordered from them. I really like this company for a few reasons: low prices, wide selection of styles, fast shipping, and regular coupon codes including one for a pair of free lashes.

So, here's my collection/haul. A few of these I've worn before. Elise doesn't put the product number anywhere on the box, so I had to look those up individually for you :)











First Post: Introduction!

Hello everyone! I've become a makeup and beauty junkie over the past year, and I find myself buying and trying new products on almost a weekly basis. Its become a hobby of mine and lately I've felt the need to share it with others. Facebook is not really the right place to do that, and I tried Makeup Alley, but they don't list a lot of the brands I use. I think this will be a lot better. I really just want to share swatches and reviews and things with other makeup lovers out there and anyone else who is interested.
