Awesome trio.

I just love this, all three colors are beautiful, they go on pigmented and lasts all day. They have a nice smooth texture all blends like a dream. The middle shade is the perfect HG everyday shade. I can't say enough good things about this trio!

True party material.

I bought this palette in Bronze Goddess on sale from an online store in Sweden, where the description only said "cream glitter eyeshadows" - but I loved the colors so I thought I'd try it out. I got it at a Friday that I had already made plans to party with some friends that night, so I just had to try it out immediately :) I started by making a nice golden smokey eye-makeup with my Smashbox shadows and then added three colors -the lightest shade on the inner part of the lid, darkest on the outer and medium gold one in my crease. I found the consistency of the creamy glitter-stuff really nice, you do have to blend/mix it together a little in the container with your finger/brush for it to work well when you apply it but that didn't bother me at all. I applied them with my fingers and then went over the edges with a firm brush, not a soft blending one (I hate having English as a second language, it's hard finding the right words - firm, compact, dense - not fluffy, I hope you understand me well enough) to fade the colors for a nice transition. I got almost no fall out while applying, and none what so ever during the night. After oil-based eye makeup remover and face wash this glitter came off quite easily, I just finished off by going over the parts that needed it with a cotton-swab and some toner to pick up stray glitters. Someone mentioned that their palette only had a thin layer of glitter on top and "Vaseline" underneath, mine had about 50/50 and after mixing them together the consistency were great. Not too dry nor not too greasy, just a nice cream that went on easily on my lids. The packaging is sturdy and looks nice. For me the only con is the price, since NYX is a little more expensive over here (Sweden), this palette goes for about 21 us dollars. I recommend this if you are into glitter, though if you're looking for discrete-looking glitter this is not your thing. Hope this was helpful to some of you!

True love, and I am not a fan of lipglosses!

I got this as a free bee so I can't say much about the price but since it's by Clarins I guess it's quite pricey. I got the pink color and it's a beautiful light, strawberry and milk pink with just the perfect amount of pigment for me! My lips doesn't look too light or dead they just get that amazing dewy rosy look. My lips feels wonderful, soft and hydrated and the best thing imo - the smell! It's smells exactly like spongecake cake batter! Not too sweet or in your face, just spot on cakey fabulousness! I heart it!
