AWESOME!! ok I may or may not have made three orders...

The first was just polish, then I was thinking I wanted some lipsticks...then I wanted more polish...opps!

Anyway here's some swatches of some of my favourite NYX products, the Runway and For Your Eyes Only Palettes. These are all swatched on my bare skin, no primer.

For Your Eyes Only: Smokey Eye

 An awesome collection of neutrals, silvers and darker tones to create that perfect smokey eye. One of my most commonly used palettes. The colours work for every occasion.

For Your Eyes Only: Blue Eyes

 Well I do have rather blue eyes, so how could I pass up a palette just for me! Some delicious warm orangey toned shades to make blue eyes pop and of course the blues. Not one I reach for a lot...but I love to have the option! It really does looks awesome with my blue eyes.

Runway Collection: Strike a Pose

 The brightest palette I have from NYX...so the poor palette doesn't get used too often. I just find myself reaching for my neutrals. There are some awesome warm brown, bronze tones in this palette. I have to remind myself how stunning the colours are and to use it more often. The white shadow is pretty handy!

Runway Collection: Versus

 Versus is another one of my regularly used palettes. Gorgeous neutrals and purples. Some of the purples are not as pigmented as NYX shadows normally are, but they're still well worth it. A very pretty feminine palette.

Runway Collection: Champagne and Caviar

Champagne and Caviar must be the most used of these 5 palettes. I love this one! 10 stunning neutral shades...whats not to love!

NYX Eyeshadow Trio's

Thursday was an awful day. Absolutely horrible.
It rained. I felt sick. I wanted to hide under my blankets. I didn't want to face my class and teach them.

On wednesday we found out that because of our offer on a house, two other parties had also made offers, and we wouldnt find out the results untill after 4pm. We had to up our offer and re-sign and I was a nervous wreck. It's the third house we've offered on.

5pm that night we found out we'd lost out to a cash buyer. To an investor. The house we desperately wanted would become a rental. Thursday morning I was still feelig very negative. We cant compete with cash buyers with few or no conditions.

Lucky for me I don't stay down long, so by Thursday lunch I was feeling much more optimistic and even wanted to be around people again.

When I got home I had a nice suprise waiting. Four parcels.

One of those parcels was these gorgeous NYX eyeshadow trios. I'd been waiting for them for almost three weeks!

White/grey/black, Guru, Casablanca, Anti Diva, Baby pink/cotton cady/spring flower and Hippie Chic

Pretty colours!

Guru, Baby pink/cotton candy/spring flower and Hippie Chic

I've only tested out three of the six trio's. I'm not sure if I need all of them...I am supposed to be saving to buy a house! These three are gorgeous though. Very soft, easy application and very true to colour on my eyelids.
The only complaint I have is that the palettes are difficult to open. Great for chucking in your purse, they wont come undone, but not so great when I want to test them out. I chipped my nail polish :(
