Beautyjoint.com and NYX Cosmetics


On the 4th June (my birthday!) I ordered from beautyjoint.com, which sells products from several makeup brands, including NYX, Milani and LA Girl. The only company I was really interested in was NYX, because I live in England, so annoyingly I can't get any of their products over here. Although there was tonnes to choose from, and I was tempted to buy more, I finally decided on buying these 5 products:



Three jumbo eye pencils in (from the top down in the second picture):
 611 Yogurt, 604  Milk, 608 Cottage Cheese.
"Yogurt" is a shimmery pinky champagne colour, "Milk",
 the cult favourite, is a matte white colour and "Cottage Cheese"
is a shimmery white colour.


A cream blush in the colour 05 "Glow" which is
exactly how I would define a rose colour. It is a lot less
pink then in the picture, and is deeper and redder.


Another creme blush, in the colour"Boho Chic"
 which is quite a bit lighter than "Glow" and
more pink.

The Verdict
I am SO pleased to say, that I only have good comments about this website! I recieved the items much quicker than expected, on the 14th June, meaning they only took 10 days to come which is remarkable, knowing that the warehouse is based in LA, in the USA! The packaging was great, everything was wrapped really well so there was no problems with damaged items or anything. The shipping, surprisingly, was really cheap, I think it was about £5 when normally it would cost £10 or higher ordering from most American websites. And the best part? The products were super duper cheap, the total, including packaging coming to about £18, which I think is about $25. I LOVE the products, I am so glad I bought them. They also are exactly the colours I was expecting, and the pictures on the website are spot on. The eye pencils are really creamy, and my eyeshadows stick tonnes better to my eyelid when I put some on before applying eyeshadow. The blushes are GORGEOUS and really rich and creamy. 

Overall I would highly highly recommend this website, whether you live in the UK, USA or anywhere in the world! :D  


p.s. I am not sponsored or anything by this company, these are all my own opinions. :)
