NYX Round Lip Gloss in 'Ballerina Pink'

I recently went on an NYX haul and I love what I’ve bought so far. Today I’m going to be reviewing my current favorite lip gloss, NYX Round Lipgloss in Ballerina Pink.

I love the packaging of all the NYX products, its so chic and pretty and I guess that’s one reason why I’m so drawn towards them. The Ballerina Pink shade is a very pretty bubblegum pink with slight shimmer. It has a satin feel to it.

The staying power of this lipgloss is pretty good. Almost or even more than 3 hours. I wore this lipgloss for dinner recently, and it didn’t come off much even after all the eating and drinking. I was pretty skeptical about using this lipgloss for dinner because I expected it to be super sticky (that’s how it appears to be) but I was really surprised when I used it. Not sticky one bit, just perfect. The pigmentation is pretty good too and once the lipgloss starts to fade away, it leaves a beautiful baby pink tint on the lips.

I love the applicator brush/wand of this lipgloss. It is bent at the tip which makes it super easy to apply on the lips.

The only thing that I don’t like about this whole ‘Round Lipstick/Lipgloss’ Collection, is the smell. The lipgloss to some extent smells better than the lipsticks from the collection. I don’t really like my products smelling like detergent and certainly not on my lips! The lipgloss has a bubblegum fragrance mixed with a slight detergent smell. It does fade away after about 15 minutes. Pretty weird, but way better than the lipsticks from this collection. They just smell nasty.

Overall, this lipgloss is a great product. Apart from the weird fragrance, I absolutely love this lipgloss. I’ve been using it almost everyday now.

Rs 225 for 2.5 ml
