First order from ebay!

Hello Beauties! I hope everyone is having a great day! It is surprisingly chilly out today. I guess it is a normal spring day, but I am just not use to it. heh.

But we are not here to discuss the weather, but about my first ever purchase from ebay! I know, I am late to the party. But shopping on ebay was never anything I thought to do.

I just never included ebay on my list of places to shop. That is until this week, when talking to Lily from Beauty's Bad Habit about buying perfumes and ebay.

I decided to go over and look around for a perfume I love. And what did I see! My discontinued perfume. For cheap! Originally $80 on Sephora (before it was discontinued), I paid just $23!!!


 Bvlgari Omnia. This is such a beautiful scent! This is an Oriental scent. Notes include mandarin, saffron, masala tea, and white chocolate. It lasts all day on me, and I get so many compliments every time I wore it. Having a bottle of this perfume again has me so happy.




Next I bought six NYX jumbo eye pencils. For 17.29 you can choose six colors from a wide range of colors. And I thought the little sticker the seller used was so cute:


Here are the six pencils:


                                 Cottage Cheese, Yogurt, Cashmere


                   Rocky Mountain Green, Peacock, Purple Velvet


                                Here are the swatches with a flash:


                                      And swatches without a flash:



I am so happy with the colors I chose. I think these are well pigmented and creamy. When I swatched these, they went on smoothly and easily. The colorpay off is wonderful.



I am very happy with my order and the products were in perfect condition. And they arrived so quickly. I ordered them on the 2nd and they arrived today. I ordered the NYX from Joy's Cosmetics and the perfume from AAA Merchants. Both are Top-Rated Sellers. 


Do you like NYX jumbo pencils?  What colors do you have?

Thanks so much for stopping by!

xoxo

  1. I love NYX jumbo pencils, I think Cottage Cheese is my favorite. It's great for inner eye highlighting, or as a base for eye shadow.

    1. This is my first NYX eye pencil. I have been playing with them today, and I am liking them so far.

      I considered getting milk because I have seen alot of people use it, but I went with Cottage Cheese because it has a pearly look to it and it looks a bit warmer.
