I'll start with the lip liners as these shades are my definite favourite - my favourite lip liners ever for that matter
These shades are my go-to colours. I just love that they are completely matte and aren't too drying at all. 'Mauve' is meant to be a dupe for Mac's Whirl liner famously worn by Kylie Jenner.
Here you shall see why I love these shades so much. The Deep Red is exactly what the shade name says it is and I sometimes even use this shade with a pink lipstick to add extra depth and to contour my lips. Mauve is a beautiful darkish plum shade which is great for a darker nude lip look. Natural is... well, very natural. It's the perfect shade if you want the 'no makeup' look as it's not too striking but still adds colour. Lastly, Rose. Now, I love this colour, not only because it's pink but because it goes so well with my complexion (pale). It's such a versatile colour that I can pair with pretty much any pink shade of lipstick I have, no wonder it's the shortest one out of these 4!
Here I have the Round gloss in Deep Red, Mega Shine Lip Gloss in Tea Rose, Black Label Lipstick in Dusty Rose & Diva and lastly, Round Lipstick in Paris.
Before purchasing these glosses, I never really wore gloss just because I didn't like the feel of it on my lips. It's safe to say these two gems have converted me. They are so creamy and not sticky at all which I love. If you're anything like me and hate sticky glosses then you MUST try these formulas out. The shades themselves are so wearable and I find that even the applicators are great on these.

Where do I start with these?
I mean I'm sure you've all heard about the Jumbo Pencil in Milk which is super pigmented right? These 3 white products are a-maz-ing. The eyeshadow base (swatched on the left) is so pigmented and really makes your eyeshadow pop when placed on top of this. It's also so easy to blend and a tiny bit goes a long way. Seriously, I've had this pot for about 4 months it's not getting any close to the bottom and I use this daily! Next we have the Individual Eyeshadow in White. Now this is a colour I also use daily to blend into the inner corners of my eyes to make my eyes pop even more. I sometimes even you use a small dusting of this on my brow bone to also make it go POW.
Last but not least. The oh-so wonderful Mosaic Powder in the shade Highlighter.
1st swatch is all 5 colours swirled together, 2nd is the purple shade, 3rd is the pink, 4th is the golden/yellow shade and 5th (bottom) is the white shade.
As you can tell from hitting the pan this is hands down, my go-to highlighter to add to my contouring. I can't even describe this highlighter - there are no words. It has no chunks of glitter and is buildable depending on how much of a define look you're going for. I'd say it's a pearly finish and is so blendable. I personally love to add this to the tops of my cheek bones, cupids bow, nose, forehead and chin. Despite loving this product to pieces, it does smell a lot like crayons, kind of makes me reminisce a bit as I used to draw a lot with crayons growing up. But other than this minor downside, I'd say it's the perfect highlighting shade. (I also recommend their other Mosaic blushes too)
I hope that you enjoyed reading about my NYX favourites.
