I can definitely get the hype around the nyx jumbo eye pencils. These are like cream eye shadows in pencil form. They can be worn alone on the eyelids or they can be used as a base for your eye shadow, so it won't crease. The staying power is great, I haven't had any problem with creasing.

The shade 'yogurt' is a gorgeous pinky rose gold shade, I loooove to use this on the inner corner part of my eye as a highlight. It brightens up my eyes and makes me look more awake (which is what I need most days).

 The next shade is 'Milk'. This is amazing as a base for your eye shadow, especially if you are using bright colors on the eyes. Its also great for lining the water line, this makes your eyes look a lot bigger, 'Milk' is definitely the most popular shade in the jumbo eye pencil range as the first time I went to buy it, it had sold out. The second time I had just picked up the very last one. If you only try one nyx product I would recommend trying this one.


(top) 'Sunrise in Bali' Bronzer & Blush duo: This is a great little compact to throw into your handbag. The bronzer (1) is a little too orange for me but I can see how it would suit other skin tones. The blush (2) is a lovely peachy pink shade (with gold glitter/shimmer reflects). These can be used separately or they can be mixed together (3) to create a kind of peachy rose gold color (insert heart eyes emoji). Overall its a handy little compact and the pigmentation is great for the price.

(bottom) Blusher in the shade 'Desert Rose' I find myself using this little blush a lot when I'm doing my make up. At first when I swatched it, I didn't think the pigmentation was too great but when applied with a blush its a lot better. You don't need too much of this and its definitely buildable and very easy to blend. I'm also pretty sure you could find a mac dupe for this shade.


Born To Glow Liquid Illuminator : This can be applied all over the skin before foundation to give a "glowing from within" look. It can also be applied to the tops of the cheekbones as a highlighter. You only need a tiny tiny bit and I would use your fingers to blend it it into the skin. Another way you could use this is to mix it into your foundation. Again this will just give an all over glowing look to the skin.  Its a rose gold shade (this is the last time I will mention rose gold in this post, promise!) and I'd say it would be quite similar to the nars illuminators which I have not tried yet, but as soon as I do I think I'll be doing a swatch comparison of the two!
