Beauty Review: NYX Eyeliner

Well, I messed up a while back when I visited my local Ulta. I had tried an eyeliner pencil of a girlfriend’s and LOVED the way it looked. It was a deep purple, very vibrant, glided easily over my lids – I wanted it. I checked with her after the liner held up through the night, and she said it was from the NYC brand. So I promptly went out and bought an NYX pencil. Duh! It was immediately recognizable that this pencil was not what I used previously, and when I texted my friend back, she pointed out the error of my way. I really, really don’t have anything good to say about this product. I bought the purple – going for the look I had previously – and I had to continually run it over my eyes and press super hard for anything to even show it up. There was zero vibrancy, and the color turned out to be a very light silver-ish color. Usually I can at least find something good to say about anything, but I immediately threw this product away and would not recommend it for anyone. I’m also really disturbed that the product information talks about its lasting power- pretty impossible when it refuses to show up at all!
