Candy Slick Glowy Lip Color

Reviews From the Past - Part 55

By Maychiri's Thoughts - September 05, 2024

Hello 'ello!
 
Oooh - what's this? My, these liquid lipsticks sure are vibrant! And these are among the very first NYX products I ever bought!
 
 
Of course I would immediately go towards the brightest, most vibrant colours they had! And, since I was in a phase of wanting to wear only the most extremely vibrant and/or weird colours on my lips, I decided that it would be a good idea to buy a hot pink and... bright aqua (???) lipstick. Sure... why not! I know people would look at me weird, but I didn't care, because it was just too damn awesome to have bright blue lips! And when was I going to find such a colour again? So, in the cart it went! Plus, since the physical NYX stores in Croatia were closing, they had everything at up to 70% off; these lipsticks (lip colors?) were 30% off - still a great deal!

Now, you might notice that both lipsticks are from the same range: Candy Slick Glowy Lip Color. These liquid lipsticks came in a wide variety of colours, from light nudes, to vivid pinks and oranges, to darker reds and even a bright aqua! It's a very nice range of colours, for most skintones. But why such a bright orange or blinding pink and especially, why a bright aqua colour? Well, notice the name - these colours are inspired by candy, jelly beans, specifically (it seems). And you know how bright jelly beans are usually! Now, were I to buy these today (I cannot because NYX has discontinued them a while ago), I would definitely choose one of the lightest nude shades, so that I can actually incorporate it into various everyday makeup looks... but it's fun to challenge yourself to use such extreme colours from time to time as well. These are called 'lip colors'; it's something in between a lip gloss and a liquid lipstick, but it seems to be closer to a liquid lipstick so I will classify it as such. Also, note that the aqua lipstick is broken - I will elaborate on this in the reviews proper.
