Affordable Brand: NYX

In an effort to show that you can get quality products from lower end brands, I decided to review some affordable alternatives to MAC, YSL, Bobbi Brown, Makeup Forever etc. 

My first feature will be NYX. 

I was introduced to the brand many years ago when I was looking for inexpensive products for my kit. I ordered a few lipsticks, lip pencils, eye shadow palettes and pigments and was immediately impressed with the quality of the lip pencils and lipsticks. Dare I say that I actually prefer NYX lip pencils to those from MAC. They offer a wide range of products from foundation, concealer, primer, lashes, bronzers, mascaras, anything you would need to do a full face. You can find some items at local beauty supply stores but Ulta Stores carry the entire range.
