They're not OMG!Amazing! quality, but what you get is worth a lot more than the price. If you're on a budget, or you just like avidly collecting make-up and don't want to break the bank doing so, you could do much worse, I think.<BR/><BR/>The lipsticks are stupid cheap, and come in So. Many. Colors. (Side note: the swatches on the NYX site or Cherryculture are beyond atrocious. There are some youtube vids and blogs that have swatches up that are much better, and I've started doing some as well.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9189510981235008538.post-80584427157651556072008-07-31T16:19:00.000-04:002008-07-31T16:19:00.000-04:00laura I'm always here ;)Anytime at all give a yell...laura I'm always here ;)<BR/><BR/>Anytime at all give a yell!!!! ;-)<BR/><BR/>I'm a bit crap with email but I'm always available for your cp'ing pleasure MWAH!the Musehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03316544097349681503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9189510981235008538.post-76329894747472230772008-07-31T14:52:00.000-04:002008-07-31T14:52:00.000-04:00Argh.

All of those NYX shadows that have hot in the name are awful (My Favorite Color is another one to watch out for too). The glitter is huge and the texture is bone dry and hardly pigmented. Orange looks like one of the better ones though.<BR/><BR/>Try the non-hot single shadows - those are much better! :DTarynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00354114903953818578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9189510981235008538.post-25798215088298671772008-07-30T13:38:00.000-04:002008-07-30T13:38:00.000-04:00I like the orange on you, as it looks pretty and s...I like the orange on you, as it looks pretty and shimmery in the photo. I've had a lot of people recommend Nyx to me as being on par with MAC too, but I've yet to try it. I do, however, love the name Nyx.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
