Nyx Lipstick Lingerie: Baby Doll

I've heard about Nyx Lingerie for a while now, especially after joining a group on Facebook dedicated to make-up addicts.

To my pure joy, Boots opened a Nyx counter in their Cardiff store, and it's massive. I was so happy, seriously. Anyway, I picked up a Lipstick Lingerie in Baby Doll which is a nice nude colour and decided to test them out for myself.

First try - I hated it. I put it on when I hadn't done my makeup properly, and it looked too dark on me and I was unsure of the texture.

I then decided to try it after doing my make-up properly for an event I was going to. My opinion changed, and I fell in love with it. I thought this may have been down to me wearing fake-tan at the time, and it definitely did suit that skin tone better. However I've also used it when I haven't had tan on - and actually done my make-up properly and I still loved it.

I'm definitely going to be buying more of these!

You can buy Nyx Lipstick Lingerie here, for £6.50.

L'Oreal Superliner Superstar: Is this the perfect eyeliner for beginners?

I know, I suck. I'm sorry for my leaf of absence, I've been a tad distracted lately! But a plus - I've bought a ton of new make-up. Not so much of a plus for my bank account - sorry not sorry.

So, on to why I've began my ramblings; I've been practicing hard on my winged eyeliner. I'm getting there, slowly, but surely. I invested in L'Oreal Paris Superliner Superstar Eye Liner in black. I thought this "looks pretty simple", and it has an amazing shape pen nib so thought it would be perfect for beginners to try and perfect that winged cat eye look. It was also only £6.99, so definitely worth a go, right?

 

My thoughts worked out exactly, and it was definitely an easy application. 

However...

Honestly, this stuff doesn't even last 2 hours. I've worn it to a wedding, and shed a little tear and there was absolutely no sight of the eyeliner after minimum of an hour. I've also wore this to a concert, no tears whatsoever, but again the wing had disappeared and the rest was a bit smudged after 2 hours. I've also wore this on a night out, and guess what? Same thing. 

I'm so disappointed! I thought this was going to be my holy grail. Definitely won't be repurchasing to continue on my winged eyeliner journey, however for a practice at home this stuff is perfect.

Any advice on what I can try next?
