NYX Slim Lip Pencils Review and Swatches



NYX Slim Lip Pencils are to die for! Ever since I tried my first ever NYX slim lip pencil, I got hooked on collecting it. I am a woman of color and I love sporting bold lips and unusual lip colors and I am so glad because NYX offers a wiiiiiiiide range of shades to choose from for their lip collections including the slim lip pencils.




Here is a video of my NYX Slim Lip Pencils review and swatches:



PROS:

- High pigmentation
- Stays on for long hours (8 hours or so)
- Price is affordable (I got mine for only 60 - 80 pesos each)
- 60 different shades available
- Glides on smoothly
- Doesn't feel dry on the lips

CONS:

- Takes a little more time to apply since they're very slim
- Sizes of pencils are not the same when purchased
- Some shades look exactly the same

So, those are the first 20 shades of my NYX Slim Lip Pencils. It's not easy to swatch all those colors so PLEASE DO NOT COPY MY PHOTOS WITHOUT MY PERMISSION.

I love, love, love these pencils! These are also perfect to use as a base for your lipsticks or lip glosses. They avoid the feathering and bleeding of some lipsticks. That's it for now, just wait for the second part of the swatches.

I bought most of these pencils from NYX Cosmetics by Onlineshopping Zone. They sell the NYX Slim Lip pencils for only 75 pesos each. If you want to purchase, just check out their Facebook page.


Stay awesome and accomplish your missions my dear dudettes! :)

  12. THANK YOU SO MUCH for these swatches! I am thinking about getting these lip pencils and I could not find a more comprehensive swatch post than this one <3 I am so in love with deep purple and Plum, lately I'm obsessed with plum, wine/dark colored lips as opposed to my usual nude/neutral go-to colors :)

  13. WOW. I super love all of them!!! Damn. Been looking for a good dupe for Ariana Grande's natural looking lips and the Burgundy, Auburn, Currant, and Plum are actually really close! I know she uses Inglot lipliner in shade 74 but I cant get them anywhere so I've been testing MAC liners and a bunch of other lipsticks but to no avail. Will try these soon thanks so much!!! =)
