Review of Nyx eyeliners

Today I got some stuff for review. I bought the Nyx eyeliner pen in "jet black" and an Nyx eye pencil in "teal". Here is where I get picky when I hear jet black i think a really black eye liner. I think of a blue based black. The Nyx liner is a brown based black. Here is a swatch of it.
The best thing about the liner it is a pen so it felt tip which makes it easier 
do winged eyeliner. 
Here is a picture of the pen and box. 











Here is the tip. As you can see you can make a thick line or a thin line.Even though it is a brown based black I like it. The liner is easy to hold and apply.








Now for what I am excited about the Nyx liner in "teal" Here is the swatch of the color.
It is a true teal color. Blue, white and green are mixed perfectly. It is a crayon liner so it
very easy to smudge and blend with other colors. I love this color! I'm about to
compare the Nyx "teal' liner with Wet and wild liner in "turquoise"
The wet and wild color is dark and has more of a blue tint. Where the Nyx as more of a green base to it. Also the picture doesn't show this but the wet and wild color was gold and silver micro-glitter in it. Both of these colors are great for spring and summer looks. Sadly the wet and wild they don't make any more. I have had that pencil for years.





Here is a picture of all the products listed



I hope you enjoyed reading this and see you next time. I am going to post everyday if not every other day. Love you guys! Here is a link to Nyx

TOO FACED CHOCOLATE BAR PALETTE! Also a trend that is making a come back this summer!

Hello people! Sorry I have been so busy with school that I haven't had time to review the product I got myself for my birthday! I got the too faced chocolate bar palette! It is amazing I am only going to going a little into it.


Here is the palette! One of the things I find interesting is they use real coco powder to make the make-up. So it really does smell like chocolate. One down side I have found is some of the lighter colors like candied violet and strawberry bon bon are a bit powdery and they don't show up very well. You have to use a white base just for the true colors to stand out. But I love this palette! I am already planing on getting the Semi-sweet chocolate bar palette. I love the packaging. The box it comes in looks like a chocolate bar. The actual palette looks like a bar of chocolate. The marketing for this product is amazing. The only thing about this palette is the names of the colors are not printed on the case itself. They are on this clear plastic sheet. But other then that I love this palette. It also comes with a glamour guide for a few looks to help inspire your own. My favorite on is the milk chocolate.
It is also the easiest one on there.  I bought it from Ulta but Too Faced has a website. So I will put both links at the bottom of the page.

Now for the trend that is making a come back for the summer. Last summer we saw bright eyeliners on the lower lash line and nothing much on the top of the lid. It has come back so break out your neon colors that you never wear. Just apply on the lower lash line and add some mascara and your eyes are done! Fast and easy! If you don't have any bright colors just take some white eyeliner and use an angled brush with the eye shadow of your choice and pat it on to the liner.
Thanks for reading I promise I will try to do more post. I am about to go on a writing spree! Love you girls and guys! 

Here are the links! Have fun!
