Best of Thingtesting4.4

NYX Cosmetics earns largely positive reviews as a reliable, high-pigment drugstore brand that works—especially for eyeliners (Epic Ink/Epic Wear) and lip products like Butter Gloss, Soft Matte Lip Creams, and Fat Oil. Reviews also flag inconsistency: certain shades lack payoff, some lip oils feel sticky or tingle intensely, a few pencils dry out, eyeshadows can underperform, and a caramel-brown sugar body mist’s scent fades quickly.

    I think this could be a great product for someone that does not deal with acne and has dry skin. That’s looking for some moisture along with SPF. I bought this not really reading the ingredients so it’s hard to knock it down that much when it’s kind of my own fault, but for my acne prone skin, this is full of niacinamide,mango and Shea butter. So very hydrating, but not for acne prone skin I thought the coverage was nice and for a skin tint it was nice, but not the product for me would recommend again for anyone that has dry skin that’s looking for an SPF skin tint.

    The fragrance of this mist is yummy: definitely some caramel but I mostly get brown sugar. The spray bottle is a little on the cheap side but the product comes out in a fine mist which was surprising. My biggest issue is that the scent didn’t last long at all. I think my laundry detergent smell lasted longer, it’s like the fragrance completely disappeared after 10 minutes. Fine if you love the scent and are okay with constantly reapplying but I don’t have time for that.

    I tried the NYX Epic Ink Liner in brown and honestly, it was such a disappointment. The pigmentation is almost nonexistent, it barely shows up and looks more like tinted water than an actual eyeliner. I had to go over the same line multiple times, and even then it came out patchy and super faint. Definitely not what you expect from an “Epic” liner. Ended up returning it. Would not recommend if you’re looking for something with real color payoff.

    I got the NYX epic smoke eyeliner in a blue shade to compliment my eyes but I find that the staying power and the pigment and vividness of the color are all lacking. It is a cheap product so I shouldn't expect much but be warned that you get what you pay for at least when you pick these more exotic colors.
