Hello Everyone,
July is gone and with yet another month gone, its time to share the monthly favourites with you guys. We are well into August, eighth month of the year. This year is really flying by. In July there were few products that really stood out and I have been reaching for them on daily basis.
Here they are:
- NYX Slim Lip Pencils in Bloom and Hot Red - I have already raved a lot about these pencils here and here. Love them and have been constantly reaching for them. I want to get all the shades.
- Seche Base Ridge Filling Base Coat - This give me a nice and smooth base to work with and I think my nail paint goes on much smoother because of this and it also helps in improving the staying power of nail paints.
- L'oreal Paris Super Liner Silkissime in Brown Temptation - This is what I have been wearing on my eyes since the day I got it. It is dark but doesn't look as stark as black eyeliners do and is more appropriate for daytime wear. Love the finish of this and it lasts all day long. You can read the review here.
- Yves Rocher Redberries Exfoliating Shower Gel - Love the scent of this one and the way it gently exfoliates, leaving you with softer smoother skin. Reviewed it here.
Hope you liked this post!!

Today I am reviewing NYX Slim Lip
Pencil in 836 Bloom. I picked up these lip pencil in my last haul here and
this is the first lip pencil I have picked up from NYX. First thing that I noticed
about NYX slim lip pencils is that they have a huge variety of shades. In
all they have sixty shades to choose from. I don’t think any other drugstore
brand has such a huge variety and they are so affordable. So 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
836 Bloom is a dark pinkish fuchsia colour. 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 any berry/fuchsia 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:
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.
