My NYX Powder Blushes collection (review + swatches)


* Sorry for the disappearing act! I know I have been gone for months and my poor blog is lacking alot of love. Alot has happened in recent months but I am back now with this long-overdue review. Hope you enjoy it! (: *


Today's review features some old products in my collection which I love and they are the NYX powder blushes! NYX is now available in Sephora Singapore but back then I could only get them from Smoochiezz and occasionally online (when there's free shipping). You may have already heard of them because they are super hyped up and for good reason. In the states, these range from US$ 5-6 depending where you get them. At Sephora and Smoochiezz, they will set you back SG$10 each. The 7 shades I am swatching today are Silky RosePinkyPeachTerra CottaSpiceEspresso and Pinched.

*Sidetracking a little, I do remember a time when Smoochiezz sold NYX products at a lower price but for the life of me, I can't remember what price I bought the powder blush back then. For comparison sake, the round lipsticks used to be SG$4 but are now SG$6 (hence I think the blushes then were $7-8).*

I love these NYX blushes and definitely get a lot of use out of them. My favourites are Silky Rose, Peach, Spice and Pinched. If they weren't so expensive in Singapore, I'd probably have alot more in my collection but as mentioned earlier, I bought some of them long ago through Smoochiezz when their prices were lower while others I bought online at near US recommended retail prices. Still, I would thoroughly recommend them because they have such a wide colour selection of various finishes and have great pigmentation and staying power. Which is your favourite shade of the NYX powder blush? Do let me know and I'd love to check them out! (:
