NYX Professional Makeup Lip Gloss Lip IV Lip Stain, Shade: Hydra-Honey

Absolutely lovely glosses. Not sticky, beautiful shine, easy application. Shades are darker than shown on photos so be mindful the photos advertised are colour enhanced and brightened up. These leave a lovely lip stain too. Great quality, fragrance isnt strong. Great value for money.

EASY TO APPLY, GOOD PIGMENT AND GREAT STAIN. WORTH IT!

This lip product is advertised as both a lip stain and a lip gloss. I mainly use it as a lip stain. When I’m getting ready in the morning, I apply it at the start of my makeup routine as a gloss. Once I’ve finished the rest of my makeup, I take a piece of tissue, press it against my lips, and then peel it off. This removes the glossy layer and leaves behind a strong stain. This means you don’t have to wait half the day for the gloss to wear off naturally. Living in England where it’s usually windy, and with long hair, wearing it purely as a gloss would mean my hair constantly gets stuck to my lips, which isn’t ideal. I find that it doesn’t last all day, but a quick reapplication after lunch is enough to get me through the day. I also like that the stain doesn’t dry my lips out. Because it’s meant to be hydrating, I don’t get the usual issue you get with typical stains, where dry patches stain darker and you end up with uneven, patchy lips. I haven’t had that problem with this product. The biggest drawback for me is the inaccurate images showing the shades on the listing. They are ok for the initial shade but once you get to stain stage…a bit off. I have tried three shades so far, and none of them match the stain colour shown in the listing images. The “Drippin Rose” shade, for example, comes off much much more magenta once it stains. Most images you will find online will show you the gloos + stain on the arm. Keep in mind that arm skin is different colour to your lips! Your lips will affect what stain shade you will end up with (see the images I included). If you don’t mind a bit of a guessing game, then you may enjoy trying this product. I also find I can layer shades — using one to stain and then going over it with another — to adjust the final colour using my method (gloss, press with tissue, stain with another shade, then press again). If you don’t mind experimenting a bit, you may just find your perfect shade at a really good price.

Excellent staying power, only need a little. Very comfortable on and great colour.

I bought this as a gift for a work colleague who fancied my lippie! These glasses are FABULOUS! They leave such a lovely colour on the lips that is long lasting and non drying. I apply and leave the gloss coat on, but I know in some 'influencer' videos, they blot or wipe away completely. Its just down to personal preference. If you've been thinking about trying one, do it! I'd buy every colour if I could afford to

The gloss is fine but for me the photos of the colour made the item look lighter than it actually is. It’s much darker and so I have to use another lipstick to counteract the dark colour. It goes nicely across the lips but needs further applications between eating and drinking.

Highly pigmented, stays for long but then leaves with a stain. Good for everyday use. Will purchase more.

I’m really impressed with this NYX lip gloss. The formula is smooth, lightweight, and feels surprisingly comfortable on the lips without any stickiness. The colour payoff is lovely — glossy with just the right amount of pigment — and it gives a fresh, plump look that works for both everyday wear and going out. It applies evenly, doesn’t settle into lines, and keeps the lips feeling hydrated throughout the day. The gloss also layers well over lipstick without disturbing it, which is a big bonus. The scent is subtle and pleasant, and the applicator makes it easy to get a clean, even finish. Overall, it’s a great quality gloss at a really good price. Shiny, comfortable, and flattering — definitely one I’ll keep using.

Good color dupe for Rare Beauty Lip Oil in Delight. I was looking for a rare beauty lip oil in delight dupe. I would go through one about every two months so at $12 a month I was looking for something cheaper. I tried the nyx fat lip before and that was too thick so I kept going back to rare beauty. This one is a little thicker than the rare beauty but nowhere near as thick as the nyx fat lip, consistency is somewhere between the rare beauty and the fat lip but its not too sticky. The color is great. The stain is slightly more opaque than the rare beauty but I dont mind for the price. I think worth it at around 10 bucks. I'm pretty tan, not very dark but my lips always seem a little pale so at full application the color looks a little strong for me but still matches my skin tone and once worn off the stain is a perfect.

Känns skönt på läpparna men är inte så hållbart som jag hoppats

Magnifique et longue tenue

The best lip tint i have ever tried, lasts for about 5 hours at a time, and looks amazing on my olive skin. i think this lip stain is viral for a reason

Heel goed. Fijne lip stain
