BATTLE OF THE DUPES #21: NYX vs. Zoeva
I had purchased the Zoeva eyebrow product to try out and noticed that NYX have a skinny eyebrow pencil so thought maybe these could be dupes. PACKAGING (NYX): NYX comes with the plastic around it so nobody can use it but otherwise it's a normal looking eyebrow product. PACKAGING (Zoeva): Zoeva's comes in a box but otherwise the actual product looks like every other eyebrow product. CLAIMS ( NYX ): Build full beautiful brows with our ultra-thin Micro Brow Pencil.

Makeup Collection 2018 #Blogmas2018
My Dad tells me I have too much makeup, I have cleared some out but I love playing with makeup and putting together different looks. The way I have stored these are with three old IKEA Moppe drawers that I painted, you can get smaller versions of them still but I wish they still did this side. I am going to through each set of drawers plus each drawer, I thought I would mention that I am not a professional makeup artist, everything I know I have either self taught or watched
