Hi sweeties, welcome back on my channel
or welcome if it's your first time here
This will be a weird video: a Maquillalia haul, so I'm gonna talk about the products I boughts
and I wanna talk about some thing I'm hating in the beauty world recently, too
Let's start!
This is the usual Maquillalia box
and the usual present: Haribo candies!
In the past I bought a mini size of the Batiste shampoo
so now I wanna try the full size!
I don't use them much
I prefer to wash my hair with water!
But it may be helpful in some circumstances
I'm loving this rainbow highlighter by I Heart Makeup
They combined five colours: light pink, light blue, subtle green, light yellow and light violet
or apply them individually
I used it today and I think it's so affordable and breathtaking!
Anyway, I wanna talk about Nyx Face Awards
This year there have been no great controversy
Last year was the first year of Nyx in Italy
There was great hype for this contest
Last year there were some ugly work in the Top20, you know
while this year almost all the work was done well
This is "Banana Dreams" talc powder
it's good for the baaking, as I do today!
But I'll talk to you better in the future
I made this order because I had finished the mascara
I buy the "Lash Princess" by Essence
I love the formula, in my opinion it's better than the I love Extreme
It work fine for me :)
Anyway, about Nyx Face Awards...
I think the works in the Top20 are technically awesome
I don't understand why some of the guys in the Top20
are already part of the Nyx Incubator project
But I do not want to talk about this now
Since Nyx has arrived in Italy
our makeup world has become more standardized
It's like we know yet every makeup in the Nyx Face Awards contest
Same themes...the voiceover in the first part of the video...the booming voice, emo phrases..
Often there is not even the tutorial
in fact, a video without a tutorial has passed
Is this a makeup contest or a art contest?
Is this a makeup contest or a cinema contest?
This video is a really good video, no doubt
but not a makeup contest video!
because there isn't a tutorial, there arent't makeup products...there isn't a real makeup!
I don't understand this choice! Do you too?
Nyx has always done these things
Last year, the winner had made a two-minute video that looked like a movie trailer
Americans also always make these "trailers"
but then they always to the tutorial too!
If Glam&Gore does the tutorial, why our youtubers not? :D
Talking about the products..this is the Freedom brows pomade
I wanted the Nabla pomade, but "Neptune" it's too light for me
The "Uranus" one is too dark for me!
A friend talk me about this Freedom pomade
They're ABH's dupes!
Mine is "Dark Brown" colour
You can see on my brows today, I think it's perfect for me
I used it with a lighter Essence brows pencil!
"n.02 Brown"
I'm in love with this combo :)
Some brushes...
This is n.102 by Makeup Revolution
i think it's for eyes but I use them to contour my nose ahah
This is a brows Essence brush and I really love it
I love these tribal pictures
And a Zoeva brush too!
This is the rosegolden/champagne external pack
This is n.223 "Petite Eye Brush"
a little brush for blending, I need it
i think it's a good brush, it have fine bristles
I'll talk to you about this brush in the future
maybe I am doing an uncompromising speech
I've noticed that the Nyx Face Awards go on just bodypainting
or something similar
No editorial makeup, no fashion makeup, no minimalist makeup
Why?!
That's why I'm talking about standardization
You can't win without aquacolor on your face and on your chest
without flowers in your face or jewels or glitters
Honestly, I don't know why.
Everyone has started adjusting to these standards
starting with small bloggers / youtubers
Those already discreetly known, did more than that
I notice people have my own impression
Everyone is trying to do more and more exaggerated things
I would love to return to simplicity
I would love to return to our identity
I would like YouTube Italia and the Nyx Face Awards Italy not to be the dirty copies of American videos
I think it's a sad thing
What do you think about it?
So, about Maquillalia products...
This is an amazing white eyeliner by L.A.Girl
"Line Art White Liner"
I used it in the giveaway video!
I used it in combo with this Wet'N Wild pencil
which is white too
It replace the Milk Jumbo Pencil by Nyx
because I do not buy more Nyx products
yes, I think I think it's a battle
I do not like Nyx's ambiguous attitude
Many girls asked if they could have the chance to win
even if they did not have the big equipments
Nyx replied that they would only evaluate the work and not the videos
with some hearts emoticons
I think it's a hypocritical attitude
because it's not true
If you can't get a cool video, you would do better not to participate
It's useless to take part in this contest
no meritocracy
For me, Nyx teases its buyers in this way
With this contest, Nyx sponsors itself
There would be nothing wrong if it happened with honesty
but they're so ambiguous
and I really don't like this attitude
Nyx urges people to participate in the contest
because if no one participated it would be a dead contest
They can not only contest with their collaborators!
They do it for money, of course
I wanna talk about Purobio contests now...
Purobio did first a "PuroBDay Contest"
I did not take part in that contest
Because they said they would win the makeup with more likes
so, nope!
Then, some people cheated and they had to change rules
Congratulations cheaters -_-
I enjoy the other Purobio contest, this one was in collaboration with Vanity Space
I am very disappointed
for some reasons
Few people enjoy this contest
the only photo I like is the Concy ("Freevoliamoci") one
At the time we were not so friendly
But objectively it was really nice
I did not understand what criteria they rated makeup
Honestly, it annoyed me that they did not publish the winners
Winners were only released on the closed Vanity Space group
Why do I have to join a fb group to find out if I won?
I think it's a wrong
and sad thing to increase subscribers to that group
There were so many ways to do things good
They did not even contact the winners
I contacted Concy to tell her because no one done it
Again, an attitude that I don't like
I'm sorry for PuroBio because I love their products
I would expected more seriousness
What about the other products?
This is "Ravin Raising" by Wet'N WIld
aka "Don't trust american swatch video" :D
In their swatch it look different
it's stronger and darker. but I love it anyway!
a desatured berry!
I bought a Wet'N Wild lipstick for you too, you can find it in my giveaway!
I bought the false lashes by Essence
the "Liquid Camouflage" by Catrice n.020
the "Bahaman Sun" by Hean n.506
it look similar to "Gotham" by Nabla
and the black eyepecil by Essence which I love
I want to invite you to attend to "FAIRy Italiawards"
an italian makeup contest, which is a contest born from us, from normal girls
Our official sponsor is "FinisTerre Mineral Makeup"
The two winners will win FinisTerre products
they're pretty amazing products, they sent me them
Soon I'll do a review of that products!
You can find the FAIRy Italiawards page link in the infobox :)
This contest expire the 1st June
I hope you enjoy this contest!
And I hope you like this video
Thumbs up and leave a comment so we can talk about these themes!
A kiss, bye ♡
