Review: NYX Cosmetics Cream Blush and Powder Blush

nyxblush1.jpgWhat They Say: (about the Rouge Cream Blush) “Rouge Cream Blush provides natural, radiant and long-lasting color to the cheeks due to a special creamy formulation. Simply dab onto skin with fingertips to emulate the look of natural and youthful skin.”

(about the Powder Blush) “Gives cheeks a healthy-looking glow and rosy color with its powder-base. This elegant blush glides easily onto the skin and it’s so light-weight, you’ll forget you’re wearing it!”

Alissa’s Opinion: (about the Rouge Cream Blush) I tried this product in Hot Pink. First of all, I have to say that the pictures on the website are not even close to the actual colors of the products, so be careful if you plan on ordering online. Besides that, this blush lived up to my expectations. It’s very sheer and easy to blend. I wouldn’t recommend it for anyone who is prone to breakouts, as it does contain oils.

(for the Powder Blush) I tested this blush in Cinnamon, and again, the color shown online doesn’t match the bright orange powder I have. The product itself was just alright. It is not any better than my everyday blush, but considering the very reasonable prices of this product line, I would be likely to use it to try new trends and seasonal colours.

Retail Prices: $6 each (at nyxcosmetics.com or go here to find a retail location near you)

DeLush Rating: for both!

*p.s. - NYX Cosmetics is cruelty-free and does not test on animals.

NYX Professional Make-Up Brush On Lip Gloss and Nail Lacquer

About the Brush On Lip Gloss: Brush On Lip Gloss works magic by creating perfect shine with its brush wand, making every application a dream come true. With 26 stunning shades ranging from sweet to seductive, NYX Cosmetics’ Brush On Lip Gloss will leave men enchanted.

Alissa’s Opinion: My first impression of this Brush On Gloss is that it smells very medicinal. The texture is a little goopy for my taste, but the thickness creates a nice lasting shine. This gloss is so rich that it provides a lot of coverage with a very light application; unfortunately the brush picks up a lot of product. I tried it in Burgundy, a shade that’s way darker than what I usually go for on my lips, but I found that with the shine it was quite wearable. If you like a gloss that covers like a lipstick, this might be for you.

Retail Price: $5.00 (NYXCosmetics.com)


About the Nail Lacquer: Looking for fresh new colors to brighten your nails? Look no further, NYX has 150 shades to choose from.

Alissa’s Opinion: This is a great fast drying nail polish. I had two smooth and shiny coats applied in under 5 minutes and my nails stayed chip-free for almost a week. I used Red Pearl, a deep fuchsia red that looks great on the toes.

Retail Price: $4.00 (NYXCosmetics.com)
