Recently I placed an order with cherryculture.com because they were having a sale on NYX products. Since the nearest Ulta to me is about 40 miles out I decided to order a few items. I really wanted to try the matte bronzer because it is hard to find one without a hint of shimmer. I guess I could just go to the drugstore and pick up a darker powder foundation? Anywho I am a makeup junkie and new products give me a high! lol.
The packaging was a little bent but non the less the actual product was perfectly intact. I love how simple yet sleek the packaging is. The bronzer just comes with a mirror no powder puff or brush. I chose deep tan because I wanted to be able to contour my face and add some dimension.
So far I am really liking the bronzer, currently I am not wearing foundation so I just add this and maybe some blush and I am set.
The reason for me not wearing foundation? A lot of it breaks me out and I just got tired of trying to find the right mixture for my skin. Will I never wear foundation...god no! I am just taking a break :D
NYX seems to be coming out with new products all the time so whats one item that either you love or want to try from the brand?

DeleteI often give my skin a breather from make-up but it's nice to have a little bronzer when you just want a lighter base :)

DeleteLove this. I've been wanting to try their matte bronzer for a little while, but my concern is it wont show up on my skin. I might just have to do a trial and error
ReplyDeleteIts actually subtle I think I will try one from the Queen collection by Covergirl...I do like it though just not sure if its a favorite.
