NYX.... I LOVE YOU.

Yesterday I went shopping.
How interesting, you are probably thinking, because it's not like the entire population of Singapore goes shopping every other Saturday. No. Ha.
So while we were still shopping I picked up a pretty pink bag, which will not be featured, but I still felt like mentioning it, for the sake of it.
But while I was doing a monthly or every-other-shopping-trip browse at Sephora, I came across the NYX counter. Yes, I know. How did you not see the NYX counter before? But honestly, it was tucked all the way at the back of Sephora, and in a corner too, with the in-house overpriced Sephora makeup brushes, and the huge rack of skincare products.
But while I was there I came across the NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil, and as my eyes sweeped over them, they rested on this lovely, light, shimmery pink colour, which I did pick up and try, and I instantly fell in LOVE with it.
Knowing Sephora and the fact that I live in Singapore, I thought that it would be $40 or something pricey like that, but HOW MUCH WAS IT??? ONLY $9 SGD! I was mindblown, so I immediately raced to the counter and purchased my Jumbo Eye Pencil.
I think I'm a little obsessed. As you can see below, as there are about 4 photos of this eye pencil, all from different angles, for your viewing pleasure.

This is a multi-purpose product, that can be used as eyeshadow base, eyeshadow or eyeliner.
I tend to go for eyeliner/shadow. I like to line my eyes with it, but also take it down into the inner and outer corners of my eye. But I also blend it into my crease. 
I would suggest using a primer for this, as I find that it can "run away" in a very short time.
But overall, I really do love this product, and I really want to run out and buy MORE colours. I hope this doesn't turn into an addiction.
But yes, NYX, I do love you (for your products AND you're amazing prices)

Bye :)
