My first thought, just looking at the bottle, was 'darker than anything I usually pick up...' I'm usually a 'naked lip just chapstick' kind of person, or maybe a very sheer balm. But the hype was real, and seeing how it transformed others' lips online convinced me.
And let me tell you, 'omg it's so pretty!' is an understatement. When I first applied it, I was instantly hooked. The texture is seriously dreamy – it glides on effortlessly, giving you this immediate, juicy sheen. What truly surprised me, and what makes it stand out from so many other lip oils, is that it's genuinely not greasy or sticky. You know that annoying feeling where your hair gets stuck to your lips? None of that here! It feels cushiony and comfortable, almost like a really luxurious balm, but with way more impact.
For those of you, like me, who often just reach for a chapstick, this is a game-changer. It offers that hydrating comfort but elevates your look instantly. It's perfect for achieving that 'my lips but better' vibe, making them look naturally plump and healthy without being overly made-up. It's no wonder this product is a total 'chapstick tiktok' sensation! It’s the ideal product for days when you want a little something extra but still want to feel natural and effortless.
The shade 'That's Chic' is particularly intriguing. In the tube, it looks like a deep berry, which can be intimidating if you prefer lighter shades. However, it applies as a beautiful, sheer wash of color that adapts to your natural lip tone. It gives a subtle flush and a gorgeous glossy finish that truly enhances your features without overpowering them. It's the kind of product that makes you feel confident enough to say '#nofilter' about your lip look.
I've found it to be surprisingly long-lasting for a lip oil too. The sheen stays put for a good couple of hours, and even as it fades, it leaves a soft tint behind, so your lips still look good. I love to wear it on its own for a quick, polished look, or sometimes I'll layer a tiny bit over a matte lipstick to add a comfortable sheen without disturbing the color underneath. If you're looking to upgrade your everyday lip game from just 'naked lip just chapstick' to something truly special, without venturing into heavy lipsticks, the NYX Fat Oil is absolutely worth exploring. It’s become a staple in my routine for that perfect, effortless glow.
It definitely gives a little extra something. It looks good. Just a little shine not too much additional color very natural looks nice. I’m gonna have to pick it up for myself and try it out.
