Review on NYX Mechanical Lip Pencil in Nude Pink by Olga Allen

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Strange formula peels off and packaging doesn't match other NYX mechanical pencils

I usually love, love, love NYX products. The dark red mechanical pencil was my favorite. I just wanted to add a red pencil to my collection for a lighter shade and ordered it here because it always sells out in stores where I live. First off, the packaging or case for the real pencil is very different from the crimson one, which was quite odd. The formula worked well enough that I ignored the fact that the packaging was slightly different and assumed it would be the same great NYX eyeliner. Unfortunately I drank some water and the food fell off everywhere, including my water. It also smeared under my chin. Then I noticed something very gross. I don't know if it was the liner, the powder I applied before the liner, or the toothpaste product, but I've never encountered it. Wow, I don't know what's going on. When I apply Dark Red it stays on the skin through food and drink and doesn't flake off on anything. It almost looks like velvet. I really don't want to say I hate anything about NYX, but I'm not sure what's up with that run-of-the-mill red liner. They get 3 stars no less because I love them and don't want to poop on their products. Gee NYX you lucky I love you.
