Christmas is Coming...

45 Days Until Christmas!!!

   I can not believe how time flies! I am seriously getting excited now!!! I absolutely love Christmas for so many reasons, family time, hanging with friends, decorating the tree and the house with decorations gathered over the years. I find so much joy in giving, I just wish the pocket book was bigger so I could spoil everyone I know! Though Christmas is not about the gifts, it is a great time of year to get some great Holiday Makeup Sets!!! May they be to gift or keep, you always get great value for your dollar! I will be reviewing the NudeStix #Toocute 3 Mini Lip/Cheek Pencil Set from Sephora, which you can find here Nudestix Set.

Nudestix #Toocute 3 Mini Lip/Cheek Pencil Set:

   So today I received this adorable set of 3 lip and cheek pencils by NudeStix. I had read some reviews on the company and their products and I really wanted to give them a try. Though the regular price of one is a bit too high for me, this set was the perfect opportunity to try 3 different shades for just $28CND (with a value of $84CND!). Sephora also has an incredible gift with purchase when you use the code PARTYPICKS. There were 4 different bags to choose from, each a clutch filled with all kinds of goodies, I opted for the Party Prep bag (I think that was the name, lol) or I call it bag #2. This NudeStix Set comes with 3 shades: Mystic, Sin and Satan (I had to laugh at the name Satan, I figured that would be the red one, lol). Satan is a new shade they released with this set, so glad they did! They come in a beautiful tin with a great mirror inside, as well as an awesome sharpener (which works on the Nars Pencils from Sephora's Birthday gift 2015). Mystic has a shimmer to it (it would have been better without the shimmer, but it is good for Holiday events), where the others don't. I have tried Sin, love, love, love it! I can not get over how creamy these are! They have great pigmentation and staying power. I wore Sin all morning, with having breakfast and coffee and it did not fade! I am wearing Satan (gee that sounds odd, lol), right now, another hit!!! Satan is a beautiful matte red with a hint of pink. Stunning, and I still can't get over how creamy and smooth these are. I am now hooked on NudeStix Pencils!!! These are for cheeks as well, I love things that have multiple uses! I tried Sin as a blush while I had it on my lips, awesome! Just a little swipe on the apples of your cheeks, blend the creaminess with your fingers and you have a perfect matching blush! Or mix them up and have fun! I highly recommend that you grab this set before it sells out! This set is a limited edition, get it while it is still available! Add the code PARTYPICKS, pick a bag, and Merry Early Christmas to yourself! Or this would make an excellent gift for the beauty lover in your life! :)
