NYX Liquid Eye Liner ‘Bronze LE-12’ Review, Swatches & EOTD

I am the kind of person who is scared of wearing bright eye shadows, liners or lipsticks. I was a bit hesitant to buy this liner as using shimmery bronze liner would really pop up my eyes and might look over the top. Anyways I took courage and ordered it for myself. Today I am going to share my experience with NYX Liquid Liner in 'Bronze'.

MBT says:
Nyx Liquid Liner comes in a tall, screw top black tube which is slightly curvy towards the end. There is a small colored representation in the middle of the tube which allows easy identification of the shade in case you hoard many from this range (the color doesn't match the actual liner and looks brown on the tube!). The wand of the liner is slightly long but is quite comfortable and allows maintaining a firm grip during application. The packaging of the liner is quite light and can be easily carried around in a makeup bag.

The texture of the liner is smooth that allows easy application. The eye liner has gel like consistency just like Lakme Fantasy Shimmer Liner (Read my review here) so there is no blobbing or running. It is really easy to dip the brush into the tube and a small amount of liner adheres itself to the brush. So there is no need to wipe off any excess on the top of the bottle. As I had already mentioned that I am not a pro in applying liquid liners and always ended up messing them all over my lids, it doesn't happen with this liner. Due to its gel like consistency, it does not take a makeup artist to use it. I think it would be easy for beginners like me.  The liner glides easily and smoothly along my lash line. It gives a neat, subtle line of color with a single swipe but can also be layered to create a dramatic, sexy look. The results with the liner are gorgeous and precise with no signs of smudging or feathering. It gives one strong line of color and you don’t have to spend a lot of time going over the line you have just drawn. Well I give whole credit to the fine and good quality bristles of the brush. The liner is quick drying so you don’t have to wait for ages to apply mascara. It is really easy to control the wand and it is easy to create winged out, curved, flicked or straight lines with this liner. It feels quite light on my eyes.

The staying power is pretty awesome. It stays put on my lids the whole day. You must ensure that you don’t rub or touch your lids else you would end flaking it up (I rarely do that!). I have not suffered any adverse reactions whilst using this liner. The finish of this liner is shimmery and sparkly. The liner is not waterproof and comes off easily on washing with water.

‘Bronze’ is a beautiful and pure bronze color with very fine bronze shimmers. It is bold, vivid and prominent without being overpowering. It is definitely noticeable and gorgeous. The shimmers are very fine and subtle. The color payoff is fantastic and gives true color in a single swipe. The shade is beautiful and would flatter on all skin tones.

Overall Thoughts:
NYX Liquid Liner is a gel based liner which glides easily on my lids. The brush is very thin and can be used to create different looks. It gives a neat, subtle line of color with a single swipe but can also be layered to dramatic, sexy look. It gives opaque color in a single swipe. The staying power is superb and stays put on my lids the whole day but if you touch or rub your eyes it flakes off. Bronze is a bronze color with sparkly finish. It would flatter on all skin tones. I shall definitely recommend it to everyone.

Rating: 4.5/5

  11. Looks nice, but I wonder whether it will show without a base? I had earlier bought Lakme nine to five liquid liner in the same shade and it was not at all visible on my lids once the liner gets dried:-(
