Two New NYX Products I've Been Loving


Hi All!

I'm back with a quick review on a couple new products I recently purchased.  Both are from NYX's Cannabis Sativa Seed Oil line.



Brow Gel



The Bare With Me Cannabis Sativa Seed Oil Brow Setter (name long enough?) is a brow gel that can be used to prime and/or set your eyebrows in place.  I like to use it as a setter after filling my brows in.  I like the small size of the brush, which allows for control.  It goes on with a bit of a white tint, but don't worry if it makes your brows look weird and gray--it dries clear.  It has a bit of a drier texture, which I find works really well to shape my brows (kind of like how a drier mascara formula holds curl better).  I like to push up the hairs to give the appearance of more fullness, and I can easily do that with this product.  The hold is also really good, so they stay in their brushed-up shape.  It works well for me with any brow look I do (I'll go heavier on the brows if I'm wearing eye makeup and lighter if I'm not).  I have used and loved NYX's Control Freak Eyebrow Gel for many years, but this one has quickly taken its place!  The price on Ulta's website is $7.


Lip Conditioner


Next up is the Bare With Me Cannabis Sativa Seed Oil Lip Conditioner.  It's clear and doesn't have any scent that I can detect.  It feels like a cross between a lip balm and a moisturizing gloss when it goes on.  It's not too thick or too thin, and it's definitely not greasy, sticky, or weird.  It feels really comfortable right away and adds a bit of shine to your lips.  The shine dies down as it sinks in.  It sinks in pretty quickly but still leaves my lips feeling moisturized after it dries.  It's great to use at the beginning of your makeup routine under lipstick.  More often than not, I just wear this on its own, and it makes my lips look healthy.  It also works well when applied right before bed, first thing in the morning, during the day... really anytime.  The price on Ulta's website is $7.

Final Thoughts

I don't have anything bad to say about either of these products!  I now use them both daily and am really glad to have found them.  NYX products are frequently buy 2, get 1 free at Ulta, so I always try to wait until they go on sale to purchase them. 

Thanks for stopping by!  Let me know your thoughts if you try these!

xoxo,
