NYX Products - Page 37

post #1081 of 1115

I tried to check out NYX at Ulta today and had no luck. The display was tiny and emptied of most products—the only things they really had were the loose pearl pigments and the eye/lip pencils. Most of the lipsticks and glosses were gone (the diamond sparkle lipsticks were completely cleaned out because they had clearance prices), barely any eyeshadows, and they only had 2 blush colors. Of course it was the lipsticks and blushes I was most interested in!

This is the case at my Ulta usually.  They have lots of e/s but that doesn't help me much, as I usually go for MAC or UD on those, although the NYX quality of the e/s is very good, their colors are not terribly unique (as in I usually already have something similar).  I want to try their cream blush though.  Their lipsticks are good, but too creamy, they run into the lines around my lips, so liner is a must, fortunately, I love their liners.

I'm in love with NYX currently. I started with the Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencils in Milk, Yogurt, Rocky Mountain Green, Black Bean and Slate. Love Yogurt, use Milky a lot, Rocky Mtn works under green shadows, Black Bean is nice an Slate was a disappointment in color for me. Loving them as eyeshadow bases. So much better than the UD sticks that I was in love with prior.

 

I bought a few eyeshadow trios, TS15 and TS19, love them both. An Ultra Pearl Mania and single eyeshadow to go with them and the I Dream of Nevis in the 5-color Caribbean collection made me want to get more! The quality and price of the shadows is impressive.

 

Round lippies in Chaos (TOTAL winner!) and Spellbound (too Barbie-pink for me) rocked my world after that.

 

Ulta's BOGO specials are pretty awesome and I'm glad I have one nearby now. What would I do without them?

I absolutely LOVE NYX products. I started using them back in October, the eyeshadow palettes mostly, but I'm starting to expand into their other products. I buy them at Ulta (not sure if you have an Ulta in your area though) and I LOVE the price too! :)

I love their round lipsticks epecially B52 and Thalia! Amazing lip colors, great pigmentation, long staying, and inexpensive! A perfect qquality product for everyone :D

Wishing someone would post a look or three using NYX products! Anyone have links to threads here? Hard to search now, because this site has become sooooo huge since I first began here:)

Edited to add: I mean looks using the palettes/review of palettes?

Waiting on my Caviar and Bubbles palette (first time NYX purchase... Toes in water lol). And very excited to try it out. Looks like a great set of neutrals... And for $10 on amazon, plus great reviews, no brainer for me!

How are NYX lippies? I mean in staying power, color payoff and such? I ordered some from the Nyx Round Lipstick line.

post #1090 of 1115

the only nyx lipstick i have is from the round lipstick line in 'fig' and it's a gorgeous color. its really soft and creamy but for some reason it really shows my lip lines too and after a while it kinda pulls away and doesn't look good. but that was before i got a lip liner that matched the color so it may stay on better now. or it also may just be me haha. i get a lot of pigmentation with it so i don't think that would be a problem at all.  

 

i really want to try their matte line the next time. or maybe one of the lip cremes.

how is the nxy quality over all VS Mac ?

post #1092 of 1115

is nxy comparable to MAC ?

post #1093 of 1115

^ It's hard to compare, people like different textures and stuff and then there is the psychological effect of knowing it's MAC vs drugstore.

 

I can personally say that I love NYX Black Label lipsticks, Mega Shine Lipgloss and their lip pencils...these products are comparable to MAC I think (though I adore the finishes and colour range of MAC lipsticks).

 

One brand is not going to do all products brilliantly though, so it's best to be open-minded ;)

Thanks, good to know, I just ordered some NYX lipstick shades, and I got couple of MAC lipsticks, can't wait to see how they compare.

NYX Round Lipstick, couple of swatches. Paris is a little bit cooler pink than on picture, Fig is more intense in color, and Femme is more orange. Louisiana and Spell Bound are pretty similar, Louisiana has maybe more of a blue undertone, while Spell Bound is more fuschia. Paris and Tea Rose are more creamy, but not too much. Overall, I'm pretty satisfied with colors. Fig is actually pretty similar to MAC Chatterbox.

i've got a five-pan eyeshadow palette (I Dream of St. Marteen...such great neutrals!) and 10 of the round lipsticks, ranging from the nude (Circe) to the vampy (Black Cherry.) I find that the lipsticks are so pigmented and creamy, the colors are great, and they are a complete bargain. the big issue with them, though is that because they are so creamy and soft, they can slide around a bit, which is a problem with the darker colors. also, i pressed a little too firmly, and the bullet on one of my absolute favorites broke! i didn't even think i applied that much pressure.

 

but they are superb products all around

post #1099 of 1115

Use NYX Jumbo Eye Pencils for bases all the time!  Definitely going to try a few shades of the Black Lable lipsticks soon!

post #1100 of 1115

How are the NYX lipsticks?/?  Are they worth the buy??

post #1101 of 1115

for cheap lipsticks i would say that they're worth the buy!

post #1102 of 1115

Heads up... NYX is on Hautelook today!

post #1103 of 1115

i really want to try the liquid eyeliner!! i just love the colors!! has anyone tried them? hows the staying power? waterproof?

post #1104 of 1115

I tried a NYX lip liner for the first time today and it left pieces of residue all over my lips. I don't know what was going on. I wiped it off and tried again and it was better. I'm not sure what was going on. Hoping it's a dud because I bought three over l/l colors the same day.

post #1105 of 1115

I loveeeee their cream blushes and lip glosses!

post #1106 of 1115

Did you know that they changed the packaging and the formula of the lipsticks??

 

I wrote a post on my blog to show the differences and talk about the new texture! (link in my signature)

I knoooow, at first I was like 'it's not that bad', but after a couple of weeks I really hate that smell. The second thing I didn't like is the oily texture, and they changed that too. yay!

post #1109 of 1115

Ohh awesome, I'm so glad they changed the lipsticks!

I had two of them (strawberry milk and I think Snow White?) and they showed my lip lines terribly, I was really disappointed after hearing tons of rave reviews.

I haven't tried them in over a year but now that they changed them I'd love to give it a second shot!

Also picked up NYX lip liner in Prune since someone mentioned it was a good match for MAC's Yung Rapunxel.
