NYX ROUND LIP GLOSS- REAL NUDE & KISS

NYX ROUND LIP GLOSS


Available at www.cherryculture.com, www.nyxcosmetics.com, www.nonpareilboutique.com ,www.ebay.com.
Nyx cosmetics are available in select outlets in Mumbai & Bengaluru however the Indian prices are almost double.

Price-Around INR 150+shipping (or as low as Rs 100/- if bought during sales ,depending on which website you buy from & your selected shipping mode)

Shades’ available- 36 shades available, I bought Real Nude which is a mauve colored lip gloss and Kiss which is a frosty light salmon pink. Plz note that shades shown on the website and actual shades vary.
(In the lipgloss swatch below  Kiss is on the left side & real nude on the right)

Packaging- The packaging is fairly basic 2.5 Ml of lip gloss in a simple round cylindrical tube with large doe foot applicator.

Pros-Very affordable, good color selection,easy application ,light sheer colors and the lip gloss isn't very sticky.Good for young college divas who want to get a good lip gloss section at affordable price.

Cons-The smell- its supposed to be sherbet lemon fragrance which doesn't do anything for me I like my lip products un-scented or something that's not overpowering ..the smell does fade in a few minutes, the shades are sheer & would need frequent application. If you have pigmented lips then steer clear of lighter shades in this selection as they are better suited to lighter complexioned people.

To buy or Not to buy-Can try if you are on a budget.

Delivery time though www.cherryculture.com is around 7 days.Ebay around 30 days

  2. Rakshanda-Thanks yes the shades are night though don't look great on my pigmented lips

    Ik-I think you should explore 'ICICI deposit cards' if I'm not mistaken these are issued against an FD (>40k) of 1 year tenure & against this FD acting as a security you can use the credit card,its suitable for those who don't have credit cards for various reasons.
    Else if your particularly keen for any NYX lip gloss shade I might order on your behalf & ship it to you.
