NYX Glam Liner Aqua Luxe Review

Hola Amigas!

We’re so slack at this blog thing, but please forgive us for the absence we try to be frequent, but life is stressful (fml). HOWEVER! We do love doing this, so today I’m reviewing the NYX ‘Glam liner Aqua Luxe’ range.


I want to start off by saying that I wasn’t expecting much. I honestly thought they would be quite sheer and that I’d have to build it up to really get a pigment payoff—but, boy was I wrong. These are amazingly pigmented! The only one I really had any problems with was the purple one. I had to swatch it twice before it looked like the others, but I think I might put that down to it coming from a bad batch. The GLAM Gold (brown tube) is also sheer, but I prefer it that way. I feel like if the brown was more solid it would look tacky on the eye. 


I don’t want to sound like one of those people, but, I wasn’t expecting such great quality from a drug store brand. I think for their pricing they’re a steal, especially if you love doing dramatic looks.They apply smoothly and aren’t patchy at all and the brush applicator is easy to use. They do have quite a glittery finish, but I would say they’re more metallic than glittery—which is slightly disappointing, as it is marketed more as being a glamorous glitter liner.

From bottom to top: GLAM Pink, GLAM Purple, GLAM Azure and GLAM Gold
This time round I only bought the colours I really wanted because I was slightly sceptical—however after experiencing just how well they work I think I’d go out and buy the rest of the range.

The liners come in 9 colours and if you live in Australia or New Zealand you can find them at Priceline or Target. They’re $9.95 each and currently there is no set including all of them. Here's a link to buy them online if I've managed to tickle your fancy.
