Reviews mention

  • Highly pigmented eyeliners longevity
  • Smooth, non-sticky lip formulas
  • Wide, trend-forward shade range
  • Reliable, long-lasting setting sprays
  • Occasionally under-pigmented eyeshadows
  • Inconsistent shade accuracy labeling
  • Sticky, tingly lip oils
  • Pencils drying out prematurely

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.

  • liquid lipstck and lip gloss- this is what I have purchased. I like the liquid lipstick formula , not so sticky and not transferable after it dries out. afforadble and easily available products. lipglosses are bombs from nyx cosmetics. I love them for daily use.

  • Great value for the money. It's not the most amazing quality, but I keep their eyeliners and lip oil in my rotation. I love that I can grab these at Target and you really can't beat the price.

  • I do not frequently wear makeup, so this brand has been perfect to buy for special occasions when I need a product, but I do not want to waste it! I love their lip liners, liquid blush, and bronzer! Feels great on the skin and is long-lasting, all at a great price point!

  • The Nyx Epic Ink Waterproof eyeliner is consistently BOMB. Easy to get the perfect line, lasts all day. I have chisel tip one as well. I also appreciate that Nyx products are vegan and cruelty free. Worth every penny of the very reasonable price

  • The NYX Butter Gloss in Madeleine is an absolute must-have in my makeup collection! From the silky-smooth formula to the perfect nude shade, this gloss checks all the boxes. First off, the texture is amazing. Unlike some glosses that feel sticky or heavy, this one glides on effortlessly and feels lightweight on the lips. The non-sticky formula is a game-changer—I can wear it comfortably for hours without that annoying tacky feeling.

  • NYX is very good make up brand. I use these cosmetics often for my eye make up. Great quality and durability.

  • I purchased the NYX Butter Gloss, and I absolutely love it! Just as the name says, it feels like butter on my lips and the color is beautiful. I would definitely purchase many different colors, and would recommend to anyone.

  • NYX has been my ultimate lip game-changer! The butter gloss paired with the velvety perfection of a soft matte lip cream always creates a dynamic duo lip color that steals the spotlight. & Don’t forget your liners!!! Applying NYX lip products is a stroke of genius—vivid, well-defined, and a feast for the eyes. NYX, you've turned my lip game into a masterpiece!

  • I listened to Bethany and believed her hype, and found she was right.

  • I’m a big fan of their foundation, especially for darker skin tones. The coverage is good

  • Favorite makeup brand right now (elf is a close second) I got a ton of their products recently since they have a Halloween stand at Walmart. Right now I'm obsessed with their white eyeliner (best one I've tried ever) and their fat lip oil. A fun and affordable brand that always works for me

  • I love love love this brand!!! such great quality and amazing prices! I love the milky gloss! it actually looks amazing and feels so good! all for such a great deal! love love love definitely recommend it!

  • They are good. Just make sure you don’t get it too close to your eye …. Burns isn’t the word for it. But other than that I haven’t had a problem. Be careful 🌻

  • Overall I'd say this brand is pretty solid. The main products I buy from them are their lip liners and the lip lingerie products. The liners aren't perfect but they definitely do the job. I would say they're kind of in the middle in terms of quality but definitely not low quality.
