Event | NYX has finally come to Malta...Bloggers' Preview

Hello everyone :) Yesterday evening I was lucky enough to be invited to a bloggers' preview event at the newly opened NYX Cosmetics shop in Sliema. Technically the shop opened its doors for the first time last week but it was cool to have the shop open late just for us bloggers to have a look around and swatch a ton of products to hearts' content! Not to mention the pretty and yummy food and deserts we were served!

The shop is exquisitely decorated in black and white with all walls lined with all sorts of makeup products...a taste of heaven on Earth! Well, at least for girls ;P The staff are very welcoming and they are willing to help anyone choose the right products at any time.

 

 

 

 

 

Basically the premises consist of the makeup section as soon as you enter the store as well as a brow and lash bar and a makeup room where one can book an appointment for makeup application for very reasonable prices. The makeup room is rather private and cosy, conveying just the perfect ambiance for some pampering time.

 

 

 

 

After about two hours of swatching and having our questions answered, we were all holding little baskets to fill with products we liked and we were offered a 25% discount just for the night. I bought a couple of lipsticks because I really wanted to try the NYX Round Lipsticks as well as a green eyeshadow, an orange lip pencil and a nail polish. Keep your eyes peeled for the collective haul post for all the product details and prices. The majority of the prices are on par with those in the UK and USA but there are some products which are slightly more expensive. Having said, however, NYX is a very affordable brand overall with quality products rivalling high-end ones.

 

Before leaving, we were each given a generous goodie bag...made out of lace!! This is what was inside it:

 

 

I really enjoyed my evening at the NYX premises and I look forward to visit again soon. I would like to express my gratitude to all the staff for hosting us and wish them good luck with this new venture, even though I'm positive it will be a success!
