Hello there,
So lets kick things off with a little review of a product thats come out just in time for the gifting season this Christmas. On a whole I personally L O V E the brand NYX I think their products are such good value for money and their campaigns are so exciting and fun. NYX are never afraid to do something different for example bringing out a bold coloured eyeliner collection and in that respect, it also means they are more versatile for loads of different skin tones which always a major plus in my book.
Moving on to the Lip Lingerie Vault 01 itself, when looking at the publics reviews I notices quite few people complaining that all of their lip products had dried up inside so that was something I really looked out for. I can happily report that none mine had dried up (phew), but what I was slightly disappointed about whenI first got the vault is the packaging itself. Now NYX is a drugstore brand so I wasn't expecting the packaging to be anything ground breaking, and I do like the slick black and clear panel so you can see all the colours inside, but the actually quality itself was pretty poor. Mine and all the rest on the shelf were scratched and scuffed to pieces which did not make them look as nice. This may have just been subject to the batch my vault was in ut I thought I would mention it just incase you were wanting to order this online as a gift for somebody.
Now the lip products themselves on a whole I really did enjoy. It was so exciting trying each individual colour and finding new colours that I fell in love with and ones which maybe weren't my colour (here is me acting like a kid in a candy store swatching them) Of course with most bulk beauty not every colour suited me but because a large amount of these colours are "nudes" of some description I did find that the majority (20/30) I did really like.
One thing I did find is that the consistency of these lip products are not the same throughout the the whole collection. Many of the lighter, white-based colours came out less pigmented and streaky at times wheres as there was. less of a problem with the darker and more coloured shades. I also found that the colours that had a more grey/purple undertone tended to be more dry and patchy when applying.
This vault has 6 exclusive new shades (Tainted, Lie to Me, Mesmerizing, Mi Amor, Out Ready, Raw Emotion) and body did they do good! The colours on a whole are very nice and I think this would be the perrrrfect gift for a lip junkie.
