NYX Cosmetics REVENGE IS INFINITE Makeup Palette Review and Swatches

NYX Cosmetics released a makeup palette inspired by ABC's hit show "Revenge" and if you know me, you know I just had to get this! You cannot go wrong with this makeup palette. It contains everything a Revenger (and makeup lover) like myself would want. To be honest, however, I did not purchase this for the makeup. I wanted that infinity box!

"REVENGE IS INFINITE" makeup palette description on NYX Cosmetics website is "Inspired by the ABC hit series Revenge, NYX has created this limited edition palette to capture the beauty of the lead characters Emily and Victoria."

Once opening your awesome infinity box, you will see the makeup, the mirror and two "Get the Look of.." Emily Thorne and Victoria Grayson cards. Pick one and follow their steps to create your look. Emily is beach neutrals shabby chic and Victoria is deep jewel dark and sophisticated (and the devil). Haha!

The palette contains 10 eye shadows, 6 lip creams, and 3 blushes.

Eye shadow:

Reckoning (shimmery light pink)
Truth (shimmery nude)
Intrigue (pearly deep brown)
Power (pearly slate)
Infinity (pearly pewter)
Destiny (pearly gold)
Revelations (matte light brown)
Vendetta (shimmery taupe)
Charade (pearly light silver)
Duplicity (pearly deep violet)

Lip cream:

Love (bright coral red)
Intuition (deep nude)
Masquerade (shimmery coral)
Infamy (soft light pink)
Wrath (soft fuchsia)
Envy (deep red)

Blush:

Secrets (iridescent light pink)
Illusion (warm bronze)
Chaos (deep rose)

Ahhh! These pictures do NOT give this makeup palette justice! The colors are amazing. Trust me. :)

I'm so happy with this purchase because NYX Cosmetics makeup did not disappoint me (I really love nyx), everything had a nice pigmentation and easy to blend (winner). I'm even more excited that you can remove the makeup and put your own special items in your infinity box. I purchased this palette for $25.00 at NYX Cosmetics with free shipping but it seems like they are sold out right now. Ulta is also selling this palette for $24.99 with a free gift with purchase (no free shipping).

Ipsy March 2014 Glam Bag Review

Ipsy is a $10 monthly subscription where you receive 4-5 beauty products AND a lovely theme (makeup) bag with it. It comes in a gorgeous shiny pink envelope and I love receiving it in my mail box every month! I have been an ipsy subscriber since June 2013 (birthday gift from my husband, yes he is awesome) and I absolutely love it. Every month is different and they feature different products from different brands.

If you'd like to join the fun, please use my link. Thank you!

This month's glam bag theme is "Destination Beauty".

"Destination Beauty" themed glam bag is my favorite item this month (and almost every month!) Ipsy has the best glam bags. This one is another favorite. This bag was made exclusively for Ipsy by a San Francisco local artist by the name of Klari Reis and also inspired the glam bag "Street Anatomy".

I received in my glam bag NYX Love in Rio Eyeshadow in The Brazilian, bareMinerals Marvelous Moxie Lipstick in Get Ready, Chella Eyeliner in Indigo Blue, and Pixi Flawless Beauty Primer.

NYX Love in Rio Eyeshadow in The Brazilian is a three eyeshadow neutral palette. The first eyeshadow is is matte chocolate brown for your eye crease, the next one is a beautiful shimmery light pink highlighter, and the last one is a shimmery light golden/brown. I can see myself using all this colors and the pigmentation of this palette is great. I just LOVE NYX!

bareMinerals Marvelous Moxie Lipstick in Get Ready is a really awesome lipstick that I was excited to try! I love the sheer rosy color and it will look great for any neutral look.

Chella Eyeliner in Indigo Blue is actually pretty awesome. I'm not going to lie, I was a little disappointed when I saw it in my glam room but now that I have it in my hands and have swatched it. I actually love it. It is a liquid eyeliner, which I was not expecting for some reason, with a felt tip and the color is a gorgeous dark blue. I actually love it and I can't wait to use it.

Pixi Flawless Beauty Primer is another product that I was disappointed to see in my glam room, but I am giving it a change and using it. I just can not get over the fact that it is so shimmery (it is supposed to give you a glow) I have tried another Pixi primer before and I was not a fan for the same reason. I guess I'm just used to the smashbox primer. Like I said, I will give it a shot.

I just recieved my glam bag today so I have not had much time to experiment. I have the picture swatches below
