A bit of a NYX haul...

The other day, when I randomly stumbled across Cherry Culture, I decided it was time for me to get some new NYX products, since I live in Canada, and it isn't as easily accessible as for US people. Their shipping came really fast, in 8 days, which is considered AMAZING speed for international shipping.

NYX Single Eyeshadows:

L-R: Black, Champagne, Purple
Sweet Lagoon, Frosted Lilac, Iced Mocha
They cost $3.50 USD.

NYX Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencils

L-R: Purple, Pots and Pans, Lemon

They cost $3.00. USD.

NYX Trio Eyeshadows

L-R: Baby Blue/Pacific/Navy, Hippic Chic

They cost $5.50 USD.

Review: Urban Decay Primer Potion in Sin

What does this do?
This is an eyeshadow primer whose purpose is to prevent creasing to your eyeshadow, increase colour intensity, and to help it last all day long. It has the same formula as the original Urban Decay Primer Potion, except this has a champagne coloured shimmer to it, whereas, the orginial is nude.

What do I think? Do I recommend it?
I perfer the orginal formula than UDPP Sin. Yes, the shimmer in this primer while swatched on your hand is really pretty, but on my eyes, it looks like there are chunky bits of glitter, that just don't apply evenly. It does prevent creasing, but definitely not as long lasting as the original formula. However, if you use this underneath a shimmery eyeshadow, the intensity is really good! If this is your first primer, and you're looking to use it everyday, get the orginal formula. But if you're already into makeup, and is looking to add to your collection, try it out!

Where do I get it? How much does it cost?
You can get this at any Sephora store, or perhaps ULTA if you live in the US. It is also available on sephora.com, and the urban decay website. It cost $21.00 CAD, or $17.00 USD. It also comes with 0.34 fl.oz.

About Me

My name is Erica Cho, and I'm a student here in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Beauty is my strong passion, and I've been into creating beautiful looks with the help of makeup, and this hobby has been continuous for the past year and a half. My ethnicity isn't too complicated, as I am 3/4 Chinese, and 1/4 French. My grandma on my mom's side was French, so we inherited this from her. I grew up in a middle-class family, and my life was always pretty ordinary. This blog is a source of entertainment for me, as I find it fun to share my knowledge of beauty with other girls here on Blogger; while learning a ton from the girls as well. I hope to see you on my blog again!

Mini China Glaze haul!

So yesterday afternoon, I made a trip to my local Sally's Beauty Supply and decided to pick up a few nail polishes, since it was on my way home from my boyfriend's house. I only picked up 5 polishes, but I'm quite satisfied with my purchase! In Canada, these retail for $6.49 at Sallys Beauty Supply, but since I have the Sally's club membership card, I got mine for $3.99(what a steal!) So I hope you enjoy my mini haul :)
