Today I am reviewing NYX Slim Lip
Pencil in 817 Hot Red. I picked up this lip pencil in my last haul here. I have already reviewed Bloom here and if you have read that post than you know that I really liked that one. Hot Red is from the same line so the formula wise they are same. Let's see how this one fares out.
Product Description - Slim trim but never prim our lip pencils come in a
variety of dashing shades—from auburn to orange and traffic-stopping red. The
buttery long-wearing lip liner formula goes on easily and resists bleeding.
Price – 3.50 USD
Packaging – Packaging is simple nothing fancy. Black glossy wooden pencil with a
colour coded bottom.
Performance – NYX slim lip pencil in 817 Hot Red is a perfect bright slightly bluish red. These
lip pencils are creamy and smooth yet firm. They just glide on your lips
without tugging or pulling of any sorts. They are quite forgiving even if you
have dry lips. Does not accentuate lip lines. Very pigmented and the opacity of
these is such that they can cover pigmented or discoloured lips. Staying power
of this is amazing as well. It easily last for 5 -6 hours on me with snacking and
drinking, fades slightly after a meal and might need slight touch up. I love
wearing it on it own or over a lip balm; I like applying a gloss on top of it.
It goes great with all red lipsticks.
The Good:
- Creamy and smooth
- Very pigmented
- Does not settle into fine
lines
- Very affordable
- Huge shade range
- Covers pigmented or
discoloured lips
- Doesn’t dry out your lips
The Bad:
- None as such
Beautiful
shade, smooth texture, great staying power and really affordable. What’s not to
love? I recommend these to each and everyone. Definitely try these out. I am
surely getting more of these.
