The best NYX products you should try for yourself

NYX is a cosmetics company founded in 1999 in Los Angeles by Toni Ko. Name after the Greek goddess, the company’s first products were jumbo eye pencils sold only to cosmetic professionals. Cosmetics were sold as "top quality that meets the prices of pharmacies". They developed rapidly, and Ko sold the business to L’Oréal in 2014. NYX brick and mortar stores were launched in 2016.

NYX is fast becoming one of our favorite makeup brands, the products are very affordable, high quality and long lasting. The only relevant problem with the NYX brand is the selection headache you might get as a result of its outstanding varieties.

Purchasing your first NYX cosmetics product has often been a rite of passage for beginners in makeup who just open their eyes to the endless world of beauty. This is probably because NYX has all the excitement (and often the same quality) as a premium brand without the high price that makes new customers hesitate.

With prices ranging from $ 2.99 to $ 24.99, the NYX brand is the perfect bridge between a pharmacy and premium cosmetics.

Here are the best NYX products you should try for yourself:

Total Control Drop Foundation

We love this product! It will not break the bank, and it is durable and absolutely smooth and shiny! We use natural olives in winter and medium olives in summer. The rubber dropper is easy to use and helps a little. The more drops you use, the more coverage you will get. We use a beauty blender that fits nicely into our skin and makes our skin perfect! The foundation stays true to color and does not rust and darken like many foundations. Every time we use this foundation we have a few women who come to us and ask us what we are using. It is a day or night foundation and honestly it is our favorite foundation.

NYX Stay Matte But Not Flat Powder

This powder offers a perfect matte shine and works great to the maximum glow of our skin. Its formula goes on velvety, but once it sets, it leaves us with a smooth matte finish that looks bouncy and natural. Apply this powder with a brush or sponge. It is currently sold in 27 shades. We have combination skin and can sometimes become very oily and sometimes dry and flaky on the nose and mouth, so we have never been able to use a foundation powder until we found it. Plus, there are so many shades that are amazing. We thought we would try it because of the low price and now we love it. It is soft and not fluffy. It is practically perfect. We definitely recommend

Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Pore less Foundation

After extensive research, we have finally discovered this product. We have combination oily skin with very large visible pores. For that reason, we ONLY use powder makeup. So far, this foundation exceeded all our expectations and our pharmacy! Too good to be true. We have it in shade 130, which exactly matches our layer. This foundation is matte and actually hides our pores, unlike most we tested. We use a primer underneath and a fixing powder. Without exaggerating, we no longer have to filter photos because it makes our skin perfect. Another thing we like is its versatility. We don't enjoy full coverage, so one layer is great, but we have built it up over a blemish or two to create a full coverage look. We don’t even need to reach for concealer after. We hope they won’t stop creating OR change the formula, because this is perfection.
