If you want to have super glossy lips that last all day, this lip gloss is for you! Hands down, this is one of the best NYX products out there, a must-have in my book. The NYX Intense Butter Gloss comes in several shades that work for all seasons and occasions. I personally use this product in the shade Black Cherry Tart, which I love to pair with a neutral eye.
The Matte Lipstick was my first NYX product and it was love at first swipe. It goes on smoothly and you barely need to touch it. Another reason why I love this product is that it doesn’t dry out my lips. This was a huge allure for me because other lip products that I’ve tried have left me with super dry lips. Sable is a great neutral color to use that goes with anything!

Every makeup wearer needs to invest in a setting spray. It’s disappointing to spend valuable time doing your makeup only to realize that it doesn’t last throughout the day. This setting spray will make sure that your makeup lasts from early morning classes to girls’ night out. NYX offers two finishes: A dewy fresh finish and matte-shine free.

Whether you’re a beauty beginner learning how to contour, or a makeup expert looking for a new product to try, you need to check out the wonder stick. I used to be just a foundation and powder kind of girl, but now I like to add contouring to my makeup routine. I was skeptical about using this product because I have really sensitive skin, but the wonder stick didn’t irritate my skin at all.

I would highly recommend this product if you’re looking for something that will make sure your eyeshadow lasts all day. It gets rid of those annoying creases and it also makes your eyeshadow more vibrant! This eye primer is very affordable and works just as a well as Urban Decay’s primer.

I am absolutely obsessed with these eye shadows! They come in 12 beautiful colors that can be used alone or combined with others to create a fun look. The shadow is inexpensive, which is great because you can buy one, or buy them all; and still have a happy wallet.

This product is a must have, especially for college students, because it can be used for several purposes. Chapped lips? Yep! Cuticles? Of courses! Dry Winter skin? NYX All Over Balm has your back! The best thing about this product is that it’s available in three different skin friendly oils (Argan, Coconut or Macadamia). Another bonus is that the balm comes in a cute little tin!
