When I first started into makeup I remember the first thing I bought was MAC. But I started being cheap and not to mention jobless, and YT was also my place of research. That's where I also found NYX as well

I second this. I mean there's no Ulta where I live, but my beauty supply stores have like all the NYX stuff, minus the brushes. And I think they're cheaper too

I like the jumbo eye pencil in Milk and Black bean and the silver one (don't know the name). I also just purchased a Mega Shine lipgloss in Beige (it's actually a milky pink) and is an awesome color! Not a big fan of the scent though.

NYX's Cottage Cheese e/s looks virtually like Shroom.

This is why I need a camera!!

Hence I wear a paint as a base for oil and creasing, then do the pencil, then do Cottage Cheese or any e/s for that matter whether it be $$ or $. Stays forever.

Edit: Also I mentioned earlier you have to spread them thin.

I have several of the pigments. I am absolute in love with the nude pearl pigment. I got mine at a beauty supply store for about 1.50 each. Needless to say, I snagged about seven of them!

I assumed those suggestions would all be a given. I don't put on any shadows/eye pencils/shadesticks w/o a proper base. Alas, for me it's still unsatisfactory *kanyeshrug*

I love the round lipsticks. Can't beat the price either. I have posted some looks with the lipsticks on my blog.

Thanks! Are you a model?

 

[aninhabr85]

Cottage Cheese but you will need a base cause its not really pigmented

Let me not be misunderstood; I like Purple, Pots & pans, Horseraddish, Black Bean and Milk, but I got Cottage Cheese when I got frustrated after trying and failing to get Milk from every ( brick and mortar) retailer I could find but and they never had Milk, hoping it would at least be a suitable substitute for UD's Yeyo pencil. Cottage Cheese IS the same color/finish as Yeyo, but the creasing and lack of staying power compared to Yeyo is soooo wack. I finally got my hands on Milk and it's exponentially better as a base for brights( which is what I use Yeyo for). So in the end, I'm good. What's good for me isn't always gonna work for others, and vice versa.


LOL This is what the Kanyeshrug is:

Ditto!

NYX is such the business that the entire collection is being offered to the next winner of Ru Paul's Drag Race this year! Last year it was all MAC.
