Beauty Finds: NYX Stall @ Greenhills

Typically I veer away from stalls that sell mix brands of cosmetics - MAC, Urban Decay, Benefit, etc. - because I’m pretty sure those are class A, fake or counterfeit products. But I don’t think NYX has fake counterparts yet, so I felt more comfortable shopping when I saw a NYX stall in Greenhills. The name of the shop is The Makeup Store and I like that they have testers for lipstick, blush, concealer, eye pencils, etc. unlike other stalls. Anyway, I can’t help but take photos of these pretty little things!   

Lip products. Their Soft Matte Lip Cream in Addis Ababa used to be my favorite lippie *read review here*! 

The infamous NYX round lipsticks. I had the shade Flower *read review here* but unfortunately it retired already, haha! Downside to NYX round lipstick is that it melts easily! :(

Face products. Sadly they don’t have the NYX HD Studio Finishing Powder in stock! I find it effective in keeping oil at bay. Also NYX Shine Killer! 

Jumbo Eye Pencils. People rave so much about these eye pencils! 

Pretty shades of blush. 

I want to try that NYX Eyebrow Kit with Stencil! 

Can you spot the PUSH-UP BRA FOR EYEBROW? Word! 

The Nude on Nude Palette looks like a knockoff of UD Naked, agree? 

They also have a huge makeup palette that opens up like this! Makeup galore!  

For nail-aholics, I’m sure you’ll go crazy about these NYX nail polish! 

I love the topmost set! Pretty combination of colors! 

Of course I didn’t go home empty-handed! I bought two Jumbo Eye Pencils because I read so many great reviews on these! I got the shades Black Bean and Milk for only P150 each (originally P200 but I was able to haggle).

Here are the swatches. I noticed they’re both very pigmented and creamy, which made it easier to apply because it glided on smoothly. The Jumbo Eye Pencil is great as eye makeup base, eyeliner, and eyeshadow for smokey eye look. Milk shade could also be a highlighter especially on the brow bone. Talk about multipurpose for these babies, huh?
