NYX - Mocha Latte

After many days of wearing strong colors and big designs I needed something calming and "light". The choice fell on an untried, NYX - Mocha Latte.
Mocha Latte is a nude with golden shimmer in it. It applied very vell, but needed three coats to get opaque. The color is pretty and just what I needed to calm my eyes. I hardy ever wear nude colors, but this one was special. A little peachy I would say, or maybe caramel is the right word..

I can't say I'll wear it alot, but it's a good choice for a nude if I would want that again.. And it's great if I want to make a leopard design

NYX -Wild

I bought this color on a sale a while ago, it' my first NYX.
The bottle is really cute, with a little diamond and everything.
I can't really put my finger on what color it is. The base is dark greyish blue, packed with loads of golden shimmer and I can see red glitters in there. A multicolor in other words. The color sort of reminds me of a cold day in the forest.
Application was thin, needed three coats.

I think I like this color best in the shade, more "filling" if you catch my drift.

I'm really having problemst describing this lacquer. It's beautiful all right, but I can't say why... Hmm. Oh, well. Good for the autumn is it at least and it will be fun to experiment with layering.
