Review: NYX


Today I thought I'd do a review/collection overview about NYX cosmetics. NYX is the brand that I own the most of, and probably my favorite too. I love how affordable NYX is and the quality is comparable to other brands that sell for more. They have a very wide variety of colors for each type of product, something for every personality and skin tone.


I'm so in love with NYX lip products! I've found that most of their products are very pigmented and go on very easily. Also I absolutely love the smell of their lip glosses and some of the lip sticks (not all have a scent). I've noticed a couple different scents: grape, cherry, bubble gum, and lemon. The lip glosses are not super sticky and both the gloss and lip sticks last quite a while. There are tons of colors for their lip products, I tend to stick too pinks. I am having trouble picking out what my very favorite NYX product is but I'd say it's probably the Round Lip Stick in color Narcissus, it's the perfect bright baby pink. I would also say that their lip glosses are my favorite in every color haha!



I buy most of my NYX products from either Cherryculture.com or from Ulta, Cherry Culture is a little cheaper though. Also at Cherry Culture they tend to have more of the products and more of the colors. My Ulta seems to always be out of stuff. My only suggestion with Cherry Culture is too Google swatch pictures of colors you want, the swatches on the site are not super accurate. I have bought a couple of lip sticks that I wouldn't have if the swatch had been accurate, I don't really mind that much I can give them away.

I like their eye shadows a lot too. I really like the matte eye shadows, but all are very pretty and pigmented. The blushes are beautiful and are very comparable to higher end blushes. The jumbo eye pencils are very popular with the beauty community, they're great to use as bases under shadow.





Do you like the NYX brand? If so what's your favorite product? Do you have another affordable brand that you love?
