Sparkled Beauty

NYX Slide On, Glide On, Stay On and Definitely a Turn On waterproof extreme color lip liners took a little while to come in the regular display at my Shoppers.

The line covers a good range of shades with saturated colours in matte finish. I have eyed them for so long, managed to buy only 4 shades - Nude Suede Shoes, Summer Tease, Urban Cafe and Dark Soul.

Most of the claims prove true with these pencils. I get an awesome matte finish with them and colours go on opaque, do not need much layering.

They do, however, take a little longer to set, transfer a little and the swipe test finds them not having the best resistance. I get about 4-5 hours wear with a bit of food and drinks.

The transferring issue reduces if I blot after application, but the colour would be less intense that way. A bit of gloss in the middle of the lips makes your lips look fuller but also effects the wear.

Nude Suede Shoes, despite not being the nudest shade in the line but being the best seller, is very nude on me :) Summer Tease is in the opposite spectrum, bright but not totally red or orange, very fun and different.

Urban Cafe, an on-trend warm brown, and Dark Soul, a dark plum, are perfect when I want simple dark lips. No lipsticks needed.

These Slide On lip liners are great in lots of way, not the best waterproof liners but the pigmentation and ease of wear makeup for it. The pencils are 0.04oz, $10.99 ($7.99 in the US). Still no signs of the ombre blushes or ombre lip duos yet.
