That’s actually really very pretty. I can’t remember the last item I bought from NYC but I think this might be my next one!

They make some cute things! And they’re so affordable.
Haha if I were a bit younger I’d TOTALLY grab this! I still love my purples, but I don’t wear them as often anymore

You’re never too old for purple.
I don’t like NYC, really… Very poor quality

I like some of the items. The price is great if you’re starting out and don’t want to spend a ton on makeup. Their cream blushes are supposed to be good, too!
That is pretty.
I’m having a purple moment right now and can’t seem to get enough of these palettes!
Have you tried NYC before? Some of it’s hit or miss, but I do love how affordable the line is!
Karen, I love that you posted a drug store product! I love reading your blog everysingle day, but if i was to actually purchase all the items on here I would go bankrupt! lol.
Thanks so much doll!
Hi Yelena,
Drugstore stuff has a special place in my heart! I love it too.
Not eyeshadows but remember the blushable creme sticks? I love those and have backups.
Ive seen this at the drugstore, I might grab it, just to try!
OMG for $5???? THAT is awesome!!! And I love purple!

i am loving purple eyes right now, but really having trouble with what color lipstick to pair with it. any recommendations?
Hi Tina,
When I want to go for a more wearable look, I like doing warm caramels, coppers and browns. I find it tones down the purple a little bit. Burberry makes a color called Lip Mist in Copper No. 02 that’s really pretty with purples and plums:

For a more dramatic look, plums and fuchsias and great! You could either do a full-on opaque lip, which is very “fall,” or pat your lipstick onto your lips to create more of a stain.
p.s. if u want surprisingly good DS eyeshadow – get Wet n Wild 8 pan palettes. Their Petal Pusher palette is gorgeous!!! you would love it! and it is also only $5~

Hi Yelena,
Thanks for the recommendation.
What a pretty palette. I love purples!

I love these colors! Too bad that this brand makes my eyes look so puffy that it looks like I spent all night crying….
