NYX FULL THROTTLE LIPSTICKS REVIEW AND SWATCHES



 

Hey Everyone,

Today I am going to talk about my recent buy NYX FULL THROTTLE LIPSTICKS. I was never a big fan of Nyx Cosmetics and that’s why I never bought many things from this brand. But recently when I spotted one of my friend wearing NYX FULL THROTTLE LIPSTICK I was so tempted seeing the finish and color of the lipstick that I immediately ordered two shade from this range.

Price:- Rs.600/-
Availability:- Nyx stores, Nykaa stores, and online store.

Packaging:-

 
The lipstick comes in a sleek black kind of packaging. The bottom of the lipstick had the same color matching to the inside shade of the lipstick case for which it is easy to pick the color from the stash. The bullet of the lipstick is slim and slanting for which it is very easy to apply the color on thin lips.

My experience:-

The lipsticks are matte in texture. They glide smoothly on lips without any tugging or pulling of lips. The pigmentation of the lipsticks is really awesome. One or two swipe is enough to get opaque coverage. The lipsticks are so good in pigmentation that they are capable to hide lip pigmentation too. The lipstick is bit transferable after few minutes of the application.But slowly it turns totally matte on lips giving a velvety finish look. The lipstick stays pretty 7 hours on my lips with slight fading if I have some drinks or oily food but still the lipstick stain my lips so well that I can carry it 1-2 hours more after a bit fading too. These lipsticks are perfect matte lipsticks for matte lipstick lover. But for dry lips beauties, these might turn a little bit dry after few hours of application, so removing the flaky layer of the lipsticks and reapplication of it is highly recommended.

Overall, in short, these are my favorite line of matte lipsticks and I am going to try out few more shades from this range soon.











That’s all for today. Until next time…
Love Sammy :*

Review and swatches of Nyx ultimate shadow palette in Brights:-



Hey Everyone,

As the fever of Nyx mania is increasing its hotness in me so I am here today with another Nyx product review. I already reviewed a beautiful Nyx matte lipstick (you can read it here) that I paired with my recent look ( I posted on my page a few days back). So today I am going to talk about the eyes, the look I created with Nyx ultimate Eyeshadow palette in shade Brights.

Only a Bright palette has the capability to create a bright look, and so when I lay my hands on this palette I came out with something different apart from my usual look. The palette that reminds me of Summer Bright looks finally drags me to create one.


Let’s head to the review…




Introduction:-


Nyx Ultimate Eyeshadow palette comes up in three different shades, Smokey and highlight, Brights and Warm Neutrals. Among the three I pick up “BRIGHTS” one.

Nyx Ultimate eyeshadow palette has 16 beautiful bright shades that come up in a small sturdy case. The palette has the mixture of bright matte and shimmer shades. It has four row that is beautifully coordinated with a range of colors. Among the 16 shades 13 are eyeshadows while 3 are pressed pigments.

The first row from the top has the range of reds and pinks while the second row has the range of violets and lavender. The third row has four pretty shades of blue that reminds me of the bright clear sky, while the last row having green and shades of yellow and orange reminds me a colorful scenario of summer.

 


Price:-


Rs.1725/- for 13.28g. Each eyeshadow is 0.83g/0.02 oz.
 

Expiry:-


3 years.

Availability :-


 Nykaa.com

 

Few words from the brand itself:-

Additional Information :

List of ingredients picture is below:-

 


 

Packaging:-


The palette comes in a black case with a see through transparent lid having a black border. The case looks really classy and cute. All the shades are visible from outside and so it is easy to pick from stash full of eyeshadow palette. The lid closure close tightly with a click sound while one has to force the lid with nails to open it. So it is a travel-friendly palette. The palette is not huge that you can’t carry in bag neither so small that you can keep it in your purse. It is a nice 4 inch x 4-inch size palette.

 

My experience:-


First of all, I will admit that I am little disappointed with the size of palette compare to the big amount I invest to get it. The palette is just 4 by 4-inch size and each eyeshadow is 0.83gm. But as the tag of expiry has noted down below in the palette so after receiving it I was quite okay with it as I knew I need to use up this one pretty fast (although I know if proper hygiene is maintained, any eyeshadows last for ages. They don’t expire actually).

Coming to the texture, I must say all the shades are damn pretty and have buttery/velvety texture. They blend smoothly and there are minimal fallouts. The palette is a perfect combo of all bright shades. The shades are much pigmented. And they beautifully blend on eyelids. All the shades stay pretty 5 hours without primer and with primer it stays little longer. The size of each shade might be little bothering as they are so small according to eyeshadows from other brands. The palette again has no mirror or eyeshadow applicator/brush so one had to carry both separately.

Overall the palette is very pretty. All the shades are pigmented and have the velvety texture that blends flawlessly on my lids but I personally think the price of the palette is little pricey compared to the quantity we are getting in it. Otherwise, it is a great palette and if you are a makeup enthusiastic then this palette will increase the brightness of your stash and in your makeup.








 

My rating:-


4/5
 

Here are the swatches of eyeshadows along with an FOTD where I created the eye look using few shades from the palette along with the lipstick from Nyx too that I already reviewed here.










 Hope you like my today’s post and I will see you soon with another post in my blog :)

Review and Swatches of Nyx Matte Lipstick in Tea Rose:-




Hey friends,

Starting with a big applause and a warm welcoming hug for NYX COSMETICS for coming back again in India. Today’s post is all about my current crush/old love for “NYX COSMETICS”.  The love for this brand was pretty old but the change of price hike (I admit I was little disappointed with new price) might make me doubt my old love.
 

Anyways, so the story start like this…
"The sudden opening of Sephora near my area and launching of the online store of NYX COSMETICS in India in NYKAA.com, created so much hype in me and in other makeup lovers that I had to buy something almost everything from this brand."
 







So, last weekend I was accidentally hit the Sephora by chance and there I met with this beautiful lippy lying on the testing table and was waiting for a home. As I was in Sephora I had to pick something for me as it would be a disrespect of makeup if I ignore them.  So, I pick up this beautiful lipstick from the store ;)

 Price:- Rs.625/- for 4.5gm.

Availability: - Nyx cosmetics available now at NYKAA.com store online.
 

Packaging:-


The lipstick comes in a black and white transparent combo packaging. The peep through of color between the black case and the cap made easy to recognize the shade from outside. The lipstick comes up with a twisted pattern like regular lipstick. The base of the case is little flimsy because the case might not be fitted well, as whenever I take out the lipstick from my stash I can feel something is movable inside the case. Luckily it doesn't hamper the lipstick or its base and is happy with my purchase.

 

Color, texture, and pigmentation:-


The lipstick TEA ROSE is a beautiful neutral pink lipstick in matte texture that will suits mostly fair to medium skin tone beauties. The matte texture is quite comfortable on my lips and it doesn’t pull or tug my lips during application. It has a mild plastic smell that hardly I can smell. The lipstick is quite pigmented, as 1-2 swipes are enough to get the actual color.

 

My experience:-


The lipstick is a beautiful pink neutral shade that is perfect for day wear and can be pair up with Smokey eyes too. It is quite pigmented as I told earlier and it stays pretty 5 hours on my lips. It fades slightly after having heavy oily food so touch up is necessary after a meal. Although it is a matte texture lipstick (as it claims) but it is actually a satin matte. It is quite comfortable on my lips. The lipstick neither bleed nor patchy. The smell of the lipstick is like plastic which is little bothering and bit weird too but it is so mild that I hardly can smell it, so i decided to give it a pass :)

 My rating:- 4/5 (due to the flimsy packaging and the mild plastic smell in the lipstick).


My conclusion:-

Overall NYX COSMETICS MATTE LIPSTICK in shade TEA ROSE, is a beautiful daily wear neutral pink shade that shouldn’t be ignored.
 









 

Dupe list:-


As I told earlier that the lipstick is a neutral pink shade so I thought it is quite a dupable one. But when I compare with few of my neutral pink lipsticks with it I hardly found exact dupe of it but still I am putting a comparison swatches of all pink neutral lipsticks along with NYX one together on my hand (NC35) so that it will be easy for you all to decide :)

REVLON MATTE LIP BALM IN SULTRY is a 2-3 shade darker than NYX COSMETICS LIPSTICK TEA ROSE.

MAC NOUVELLE VOGUE 2 shade lighter than NYX COSMETICS LIPSTICK TEA ROSE.

COLOURPOP LUMIERE LIPPIE STIX has totally different undertone than NYX COSMETICS LIPSTICK TEA ROSE (I don’t know why I put it on this comparison swatches…silly me!)


An FOTD using most of the product from NYX cosmetics(will review the rest of stuff soon ).


On my eyes shadows are from NYX ULTIMATE EYE SHADOW PALETTE (reviewed here)








 So that’s all for today and I will see you soon in my next post :)
