Holiday Gift Guide: NYX Cosmetics - Review (And a Giveaway)

Are you looking for a new look this holiday season. Or are you like me, in a constant search for affordable makeup that is vibrant and lasts? Well ladies, I have a great company I would like to introduce you to. NYX cosmetics, here is a little information about NYX cosmetics from the website:

NYX was named after the ancient Greek goddess who ruled the night. We offer a variety of products ranging from eye shadows to foundation and brushes to eye lashes and glitter to glosses. Everything a professional makeup artist needs for the job or a goddess needs to create her look for a night on the town and rule the night life in this modern techno-savvy world.

NYX originated and is headquartered in the heart of sunny Los Angeles. The cosmetics line was founded in 1999 by a young entrepreneur named Toni Ko. Ms. Ko has been involved in color cosmetics since she was a teenager and has always desired to create and share a line of cosmetics that provided quality products at approachable prices.

Here’s the catch: NYX offers the best quality of cosmetics at attractive prices. Yes, that’s right, you can splurge without guilt. This has made NYX the fastest growing cosmetic company in the United States. The ultramodern and stylish packaging fused with the huge selection of highly pigmented colors continues to catch the eyes of many hip and sophisticated makeup gurus and has become a fave in their kits.

NYX Cosmetics is now known to top makeup artists, celebrities and style insiders around the world as a professional line featuring one of the widest arrays of shades available.

My Review:

I love makeup. I can admit it, I love makeup. It is just a way for me to feel better about myself. To really just be the best I can be. I love to play with colors, and I am not afraid to try new things when it comes to my makeup. I know makeup can be expensive, and because I wear it every day, I have to buy it often. And  I am always looking for quality cosmetics. I was very fortunate to try an array of cosmetics from NYX. I have to say I am loving this line!

I was able to review:

Xtreme Lip Cream – I loved the pinky color that was sent. I have to agree with the description… this is unlike any other lip product I have ever used before. No it is not a gloss, and it is not a lipstick… It seems to be a great combination of both. It seems impossible, but it is possible NYX has done it! $6.00 each

NYX – Sheer gloss, in the colors Brilliant (hot pink) and Lavender note.  I love these glosses, now as most of you know I am a lip balm lover. I have to have one with me at all times. I am also a gloss lover, and they are in my purse all the time too. Now one of my NYX sheer glosses is with me when I go to work, this gloss is easy to apply, and the colors pop.  The Lavender Note is my favorite color, it just goes with everything and it is pretty and subtle. My daughter is trying to claim the “Brilliant” lip gloss, because hot pink is her favorite color.. I had to say no, she is only 7! $5.50 each

NYX eyeliners- In some great holiday colors, Platinum, and Glitzy Gold. Now I have to say I have never used gold or platinum eye liner before, but I tried them out and they looked great. Something different that is for sure, I will have to wear one for New Year’s eve! I loved how smoothly they went on, very easy to apply. $8.00 each

NYX Nailpolish – NYC advanced salon formula nail polish in festive colors, Hunter Green and Maroon. As soon as my daughter saw the polish she asked me to paint her nails, and of course she had me paint one green nail and then one maroon nail. She said it looked more like Christmas that way. I have to agree she sure looked festive. $4.00 each

NYX Liquid Black eyeliner- Now this was one of my favorite items, I love liquid black eyeliner. To me it really says “I am dressed up!” and it makes my eyes look bigger and I feel prettier! $6.00 each

NYX Satin Finish – Black liner, this is a classic liner. It is a must in all makeup lovers collection.  $6.00 each

NYX powder  Foundation in natural – I loved how smooth and clear this made my skin look. I loved the fancy look of the container, it looked like the very expensive ones I have used in the past. And this has a great mirror too.  This is only $10.00!

NYX Doll Eye Mascara, this was my favorite item of all. It is the best mascara I have ever used! Yes that is a bold statement but it is true, my eyes popped! And I loved the “doll eye” look! Very nice! $9.00

With the holidays almost here, and the New Year’s party’s right around the corner why not check out the great line of cosmetic from NYX, they are affordable the items I received ranged from $4.00 to $10.00. Where can you buy great cosmetics for that price? Certainly not at the mall the prices there are outrageous! I would recommend NYX Cosmetics for any cosmetic lover out there!
