Haul: NYX & O.P.I!

Hey everyone! Sorry I've been M.I.A for a while! School's been 

pretty much taking over my life. Lol. Anyway, I went to Ulta

the other day & purchased some goodies! :)

 I bought a few nail polishes from the new Katy Perry O.P.I collection.

The first one is the famous Black Shatter. I'm LOVING it!
One coat is all you need (because it'll shatter anyway). ;)
The second one is Not Like the Movies. It's a pretty gray color that has a purple, green-ish sheen to it. SO pretty!
It's pretty opaque in 2 coats.
Last, but definitely not least, Teenage Dream. I think this was the second most talked about polish right after the Black Shatter. It's a sheer pink with loads of glitter! There's big chunks and fine chunks of glitter in it.

                                          

I finally picked up some more NYX Jumbo Pencils!

 

(from Top to Bottom)  

Milk: basic white 

Pots & Pans: basic silver

Iced Mocha: taupe-y brown

Cottage Cheese: iridescent white 

  I love these! I owned two others, so I was really excited to add to my collection of these.
FYI, you do need a primer under these and apply a thin layer because they WILL crease!

               

  Lastly, I picked up a couple of the NYX Rouge Cream Blushes.

 (from Left to Right)
Natural: IMO, it's a peachy blush.

Boho Chic: blue-toned baby pink.

(kind of reminds me of Viva Vlam Gaga lipstick?)

 I'm not really liking these two products right now. I find they can be a little hard to work with. 
I will definitely have to keep playing around with them, and I'm determined to find a way to make them work. :)

I hope you guys enjoyed! 


xoxo, Esme

It's a look that's very simple, easy for me to do & in my opinion,
