Beauty: The NYX Edit - What you NEED to buy

Over the past around 9 months or so every make-up lover in the UK has become fixated on NYX Cosmetics since it's launch in the UK. What's the big deal about NYX? In case you have been living under a bush for the past few months it's an affordable make-up brand from the US which is slowly making it's way into our local Boots stores. NYX products are also available on ASOS and Feel Unique.

Can you tell I love a nude lipstick? I am obsessed with these three colours from NYX at the moment My most used product out of the three is the liquid suede lipstick in sandstorm. I think it's a gorgeous brown shade and it works so well with my skin tone. It dries pretty matte which I love and it was a bargain at about £6. I really like the intense butter glosses as they are incredibly moisturising and pigmented. I think chocolate crepe is the perfect pink toned nude colour. If you're a fan of lip glosses the next thing on your wish list needs to be the butter gloss in praline. It's a gorgeous shade of brown, moisturising without looking too 'out there'.

 NYX Dewy Finish Long Lasting Setting Spray

I've been the biggest fan of the Urban Decay setting spray but it is pricey at about £21 per bottle. I have been looking on the high-street for the perfect alternative and I finally think I've found it. It's only £7 and if you're not looking for a dewy finish you can pick up the matte finish setting spray. It leaves my skin with a dewy finish which I love as sometimes (even though I love it) the Urban Decay setting spray can leave my make-up looking really matte.

 NYX Wonder Pencil in Medium

Who doesn't love a 3 in one product? This wonder pencil from NYX is only £4 and so it doesn't break the bank either. This wonder pencil can be used as a concealer, eye brightener and reverse lip liner all in one. If you're always on the go and looking for a cheap affordable and multi-use product to add to your make-up bag, this is your go-to.

NYX Highlight and Contour Palette This is definitely my favourite product from NYX (aside from the lip products) and this is a great investment no matter your skin tone. I picked this up on my trip to Germany (you can check out my post about my trip here) where NYX was actually a little bit cheaper then it is in the UK so it cost me about £13 instead of £18. Nevertheless this palette is great as it has 4 contour shades and 4 highlight and illuminating shades. I love using this to create evening and day-time looks.
