We’re big fans of the likes of Rimmel and Barry M and Essence here at Beaut.ie: budget brands that produce great cosmetics at low low price points and are widely available right across the land.
And now there’s a new range of cheap-as-chips make-up joining their ranks, hitting Sam McCauley´s and other pharmacies nationwide. With the most expensive product clocking in at a weeny €5.99, the offerings from N.Y.C. (New York Colour) cosmetics provide a guilt-free pre-payday fix.
I’ve been giving a few bits and bobs from the line a whirl, and am particularly taken with their Lippin’ Large plumping lipgloss and multi-tonal pink blusher. They do a full complement of colour cosmetics as well as a range of talc-free minerrrdal make-up and a mosaic bronzer that’s a bit of a dead ringer for Guerlain’s decidedly spendier Terracotta version.
Think I might give it a crack since my Guerlain hit the deck - again!!! - last week and I could do without shelling out the guts of forty quid on bronzer at the minute …

Got their mineral makeup yesterday up the North for 4.99 and it’s fab!
I got some of their false eyelashes and nail varnish and both were great!!
ive used the mosaic bronzer like the guerlain one and found it great- i haven’t tried the guerlain one yet though!
i have 2 nail varnishes bought up north theyre great
i saw NYC in a pharmacy in dublin months ago before the beaut.ie post
Their pressed powder is meant to be really good (according to Makeupalley), I tried it last year but was not that impressed. On the other hand my face is an oil slick so nothing really works. Bought a purple nail varnish but it was really watery and the brush really stiff, didn’t like at all. I feel silly being so negative (starting to doubt myself now that everyone else seems to love them!), will probably sucumb to pressure and try something again! In Wexford they’re sold in Superdrug in case anyone is looking.
Hi folks, Can anybody tell me where on the southside of Dublin I might get these products, have tried Sam McCauley in Glasthule but no luck, any other ideas? I’d really appreciate it, thanks
