cream collection.

<div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">Cream eyeshadows have become a big favourite of mine over the past few months as I much prefer the look of dewy, smudgy shadow rather than the effects from their powdery counterparts. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">There's just one major downside- the creasing! I don't class myself as having exceptionally oily eyelids, rather just normal ones, however cream eyeshadows seem to seriously disagree with me in terms of longevity. Generally this problem is solved with a slick of Urban Decay Primer Potion underneath, except in exceptional cases, when even in the most perfect conditions some cream shadows cannot last more than 4 hours, not naming any names... <i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">*cough*</span></i> <span style="font-size: x-small;">MAC Paint Pot </span><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">*cough*</span></i></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">These are the few products I own in my collection... </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Cream blush is my ultimate makeup weakness... as well as lipsticks and eyeshadows, <em>ahem.</em> I don't know what it is about the standard cream blush that makes it so superior to the bland and boring powder version. Maybe it's the dewy finish? The soft texture? Or maybe its the amazing pigmentation of colour in just one dab and then blend blend blend?

It just does not suit my skin tone, and I look slightly crazy when I put it on, but I will definitely be considering buying more of these, in different shades.</span></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvR2T9KvfL7z1xJmX7uzUhwRC9NhNUjLhe-Sjn08SKGCFQAMm33wXuHFENxaTc6VJzue5_ZawLOHivWOP8bG7UhS0z1W9tgQ3c9j51KAxAjXnHxVHDMz3diCS5TBbK8qHkQho4HybSL2Jr/s1600/CIMG0607.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: #666666;"><img border="0" height="474" j6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvR2T9KvfL7z1xJmX7uzUhwRC9NhNUjLhe-Sjn08SKGCFQAMm33wXuHFENxaTc6VJzue5_ZawLOHivWOP8bG7UhS0z1W9tgQ3c9j51KAxAjXnHxVHDMz3diCS5TBbK8qHkQho4HybSL2Jr/s640/CIMG0607.JPG" width="640" /></span></a></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;"><strong>Jumbo Eye Pencils in Milk & Dark Brown</strong></span></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;">I adore these, just adore.

It was the colour shade which initially drew me in, however it turns out to be a soft, very light pink, which is beautiful, however I was disappointed when I didn't open it up to being a beautiful glowing peach. <em>But hey</em>, the pigmentation is lovely and its really glowey and pretty on the cheeks.</span></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;"><strong>Rouge Cream Blush in Rose Petal</strong></span></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;">This miracle product is really the reason I was interested in NYX in the first place. I'm a huge creme blush fan and this definitely fulfilled my high expectations. Its beautiful and dewy, perfect for a 'no makeup-makeup' look and is such a dream to blend I can't wait to put it on every morning.</span></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhA27IvtHToTh-QXk0r2ODUzpdKHOzROhNiZwkI-dCsf80c7vzQaqjnhP1yzI9V-c2QGzcD-P5AU4FPi3y9xJ7jrUrUySgUx7KLNZczLMFb68-fT4053Px2IM9vs420CE17z6t3x6tFB73K/s1600/CIMG0602.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: #666666;"><img border="0" height="364" j6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhA27IvtHToTh-QXk0r2ODUzpdKHOzROhNiZwkI-dCsf80c7vzQaqjnhP1yzI9V-c2QGzcD-P5AU4FPi3y9xJ7jrUrUySgUx7KLNZczLMFb68-fT4053Px2IM9vs420CE17z6t3x6tFB73K/s640/CIMG0602.JPG" width="640" /></span></a></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;"><strong>Lip Lacquer Pot in Georgia Peach</strong></span></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;">This colour is just divine, a milky, shiny pink which looks beautiful on the lips, without being sticky at all. <em>Love love love.</em></span></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;">I also received the Bubblegum Lipbalm above as a free gift with purchase, which is also lovely and moisturising and the smell just reminds me of my old bubblegum obsession -<em> nomnomnom</em>!</span></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuE4D9yQK_yQ25glnyGgJgtKYnqMqaAOMtdObld-zEUBZ7qL18A93m_0HnLendtTK6yzLHKs01QMkixZjAyLuxPNmo2ORLEu0ZAS_VlbGI7i87Uof12TY6XWWyq7w7cEA6xEHn6glhY9zn/s1600/CIMG0651.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: #666666;"><img border="0" height="640" j6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuE4D9yQK_yQ25glnyGgJgtKYnqMqaAOMtdObld-zEUBZ7qL18A93m_0HnLendtTK6yzLHKs01QMkixZjAyLuxPNmo2ORLEu0ZAS_VlbGI7i87Uof12TY6XWWyq7w7cEA6xEHn6glhY9zn/s640/CIMG0651.JPG" width="324" /></span></a></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-size: xx-small;"><em>Top - Bottom; Lipgloss in Smokey Look, Lip Lacquer in Georgia Peach, Lipstick in Margarita, Jumbo Eye Pencil in Dark Brown & Milk, Rouge Creme Blush in Rose Petal, Powder Blush in Peach</em></span></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;">I'm loving all my new bits and bobs from NYX and I'm on the hunt for new things to try, any suggestions? :)</span></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/4894/siggiei.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: #666666;"><img border="0" src="http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/4894/siggiei.png" /></span></a></div></div>
