Nyx soft matte lip cream

The post today is about the Nyx soft matte lip cream. I was at my local grocery store and went by the Nyx display and I saw it. Most matte lip colors that I found dries out my lips and I don't like the feeling they have. I decided to try it any way. It goes on smooth and doesn't feel like most matte lip colors. I love how it feels. It feel creamy and stays on. At work I talk a lot and it last for three hours before I had to reapply. I love the color I got. The color doesn't look like the tube but that's ok. It is a gorgeous pink and I love it. Here are the pictures.
The color SMLC  07 Addis Ababa. I love this color. They had other colors but this one I really liked. 

The color is super pigmented. It goes on smooth. I just love this color! it is a soft color pink and is great for everyday wear and even last through eating and drinking.

You can buy this product at any Target,Ulta,Sephora or online at Nyx website. Nyx soft matte lip cream

August ipsy glam bag!!!

With school about to start this months bag is called prep school. The bag is a simple houndstooth style bag with a pink zipper. 
The first item I got blossom and bloom ginseng and biotin volumizer from briogeo. I love the smell of the spray. It is just a trail sized bottle but it will last me for a while because my hair is short. It adds some volume and it didn't leave me with greasy or fried hair. Because it will has biotin it helps supports hair growth.  You can buy this online or at a Sephora. Online it sells around $18.00.
The second item I got is Amino Herbal Hydration mask. It has Hyaluronic acid, Vitamin B5, and vitamin E it is from OZ Naturals. I love this mask. I used a facial scrub and then used the mask I left it on for 30 minutes. It left my skin smooth and moisturized.  Once again I received a trail size and not a full sized of the product but I will buy it again. Online it runs around $21.99
The third product I got is Luxe Longwear Eyeliner Pen by Starlooks. It is in the color black. It is a brown based black. It is long wear it lasted 8 hrs of running around. It lasted until I took it off that night. Because it is a pen it was easy to apply. The eyeliner is $19.00 on the website.
Here is the swatch.
The fourth this I got was a lip liner in the color #3035 Nude Liner by Lord & Berry. It is the perfect tone for me to use for lip contouring. It goes on smooth and lasted for the day with out the use on reapplication. The swatch is on the right. 
The fifth product I got was a lip gloss in the color salsa by Hikari. The web site called the color a true red. I like the color but the lip gloss has a sticky texture. It is really glossy but I don't like sticky lip gloss. It looks great in pictures but I took it off right afterwards.  The website sells the lip gloss for $13. 
Here is the swatch of the lip gloss. 

This month I was happy with this bag. I love the look of the make-up bag and the products I received.
