I have loved the new launches from NYX, so I was really excited to try the Gloss Huntrant Gloss stains that really remind the glossy YSL stains I was addicted to the back of the day. Here is the low Down with photos and samples.

NYX LIP IV HYDRING GLOSS STAIN SHADES AND SWATCHES
There are 16 shades in the complete collection. I have 6 shades to show you:
Here are the samples as a stain, although it has tried some of the shades, I think the stain is more intense on the lips:
My criticism
What makes these really big ones is that not only is it a super glossy lip color, but when the gloss has faded, you leave a very long stain. As I said at the top, they really remind me of the glossy YSL stain, especially the pop -water variety that has a similar watery feel on the lips.
As a more recent comparison, there is some resemblance between NYX Lip IV and rare beauty oils. NYX has thicker, glossy, water-as consistency, but both types stain their lips in a very similar way. I think the NYX formula is potentially more moisturizing.

There is a pretty impressive collection of shade and all that I have is extremely wearable, especially as a stain. I find that the texture of thick glossy can take on your teeth after you have applied it for the first time, but I am willing to believe this is a problem with me!
Once the gloss has gone a stain, I like to complete a clear gloss or balm. I am currently obsessed with the Sephora Lift & Firm Plumping Lip Balm* which you can get 20% off with the code really reesph.
If you are looking for a hybrid lip-chill stains, I don’t think you can go wrong with them. My favorite shades so far are 02 Hydra Honey, 07 Bubblegum Burst and 08 Drippin on Rose.
