NYX Professional Makeup Lip Gloss and Lip Stain, Lip IV Hydrating Gloss Stain, Up to 12 Hour Hydration, High Pigment, Wet Shine Finish, Shade: Berry Thirsty

Beautiful colour! Not sticky at all but super shiny and smooth. Great quality and I love that it stains so it looks more natural overall as it wears off. Will last me a while as it’s quite pigmented so great value for money. It doesn’t have any smell to it which I also like.

I think they cracked the code on this one. Honestly, I can’t believe how good everything is—the color pops, the shine is gorgeous, and the best part? The stain. I’ve always been a sucker for lip stains, but let’s be real—they usually leave my lips feeling like the Sahara Desert and looking like cracked earth. Not this one. It delivers that perfect, long-lasting tint without the dryness. Smooth, comfortable, and seriously impressive.

Couldn't quite give this a 5 star as it requires a lot of waiting and most times requires an additional layer to really see the difference. That being said, it does work and gives a nice subtle stain. I find most lip stains give a pinky stain and don't quite match their colour (the same can be said for the expensive ones). I don't know if that's something to do with my skin, though. When adding lip gloss the colour does pop! I've given a before and after photo. This is after 2 applications. First application was on for 20mins before wiping off, the second was on for 10mins. For those who like vibrant, loud, shiny lips, there is the added bonus of being able to wear this as a gloss without having to wipe the shine off. You can apply this and wear it as is and it'll leave you with the stain after the gloss wears off. My only issue with that is that the shiny gloss will transfer and, with it being a stain, I'd constantly be wary of how it might stain. But that's not an issue for me as I don't like thick bold layers on my lips, so the subtle stain is fine. I have all brands of stains (the "viral" Wonder one, Smooche, Sacheu, Beauty Crop). I have 3 of these NYX ones and, honestly, I would rate these as one of the lowest (on par with Beauty Crop), although Wonder is only scoring higher because it takes 2mins to stain, not 20! I actually don't rate the Wonder one much at all. These are still great stains, and ideal if you don't want to spend loads: - they stain - they last (although not as long as more expensive brands) - easy to apply - nice colours - pops with gloss - compact size for the handbag - doesn't dry out lips as much as others (Sacheu scores top marks for moisturising quality. Most stains do dry out lips. TIP: apply plain lip balm, after 10mins wipe off any excess balm and apply stain) Main con: wait time is too long to get a decent stain

I have shiny, oily skin, so usually avoid lip glosses like the plague. However, I was desperate to find a decent lip stain that didn't cost £18+, so gave this a go. I bought the shade 'Drippin' in Rose', and it is genuinely fantastic! I am a complete convert and about to order some more colours to try. The gloss is actually lovely, smells nice, not sticky - more like a shiny cream finish, and really moisturising. I am a lip balm addict normally, but haven't used any AT ALL since starting to wear this! If applied liberally and left on for a bit, it happily wears/wipes down to a beautiful and very long lasting stain, that touches up really easily if you have eaten and drunk a lot. The second photo is after several hours of eating and drinking normally, and I don't even think the photo does it justice.

Unfortunately the shade I got (cocoa quench) looks really unnaturally orange on my skin :( (I'm pale olive, maybe it's nicer on other tones) However, it doesn't feel too heavy which is nice as I don't like the feel of lipgloss. The stain is actually really pretty but not at all the colour of the gloss, it's more a natural lip colour and the longer it's left on the more pigmented the stain. The stain holds pretty well once on so I think this product is just good for putting on at home in the morning just for the stain and taking off before you leave, but maybe it's prettier in other colours. Overall really sad that this didn't work as I hoped, the gloss colour is just horrible on me.

The formula is amazing. The gloss is not sticky at all. Application is easy and buildable; a little goes a long way. Adjacent to K-beauty glosses (it is made in South Korea). Once the gloss wears off, the stain doesn't leave your lips looking bare or patchy. I have Drippin' in Rose and Hydra Honey: the former is more mauvy and pink whereas the latter is more brown. I think I like the rose one more.

Not lasting as long as suggested, smells nice

It just a lip gloss.not worth the hype

Känns skönt på läpparna men är inte så hållbart som jag hoppats

As the picture

I bought the NYX Professional Makeup Lip IV Hydrating Gloss Stain in Blush Rush after borrowing a friend’s for a wedding, and I absolutely love it. The shade is flattering and versatile, with a beautiful wet-shine finish that looks polished without feeling heavy or sticky. It’s very comfortable to wear and genuinely hydrating, thanks to the vitamins and coconut water. The pigment is impressive, and even after the gloss fades, there’s a soft stain that lasts for hours. It’s such a hit that now my daughter uses it too. Definitely a favorite in our house and something I’d happily repurchase.
