   Natural, says what the shade is supposed to be. This stuff is amazing! The scent and consistency of the product is great. The color is an amp up to MLBB, a neutral natural color great for any eye look. I’ve been using this shade for years. Highly recommend it!

   I do like this gloss. Like the Milani Brilliant Shine gloss in Bare Secret, I find this NYX gloss is a great nude shade without looking milky or frosting-like. It’s a very flattering pinky brown which compliments my fair complexion beautifully.
   I find this gloss is neither hydrating nor drying, so it sort of reminds me of the glosses I’d use in high school back in the 90’s before the idea of lip care really occurred to me. It’s not bad – it’s just not really up-to-par with the hydrating benefits of most modern lip glosses.
   I do like that it manages to not feather even though it’s not a particularly thick gloss. It’s VERY lightweight and creamy and feels like a dream on the lips. It doesn’t last long because of it’s lightweight consistency, but it’s inexpensive enough for me to not really be too put-off by having to reapply it rather frequently.
   The smell reminds me of childhood. It’s a fake cherry scent that triggers happy memories of the cruddy candies my grandmother would put out for us. They didn’t taste amazing, but they were sugar and as kids, that’s all that matters. The scent of this gloss fades quickly for me, which is good because after a while, I imagine it would be a bit cloying.
   Packaging-wise, it’s pretty basic. The bow on the cap is adorable, but would have been better suited with a little gem or something to get it to stand out more. The tube itself does have a bit too much print on it, which I find to be common among NYX’s products. However, this tube is NOT DURABLE. If you drop this, it will break inside the cap and gloss will get everywhere. I’ve never experienced this. I don’t drop makeup very often really, but one drop from about two feet destroyed the package and I already had to replace it. Being that it happened on the first day, I was a bit sad, especially since the break was undetectable at first until it leaked all over everything in my makeup bag. So yeah, not good for throwing into your purse.
   As I said, I did repurchase this gloss after the first tube broke, so I do like it enough to buy it again. It doesn’t hold a candle to my beloved Milani glosses, but it’s a nice change of pace if I want something creamy and light as a feather on my lips, but still want a good wash of opaque glossiness.

   I dont understand some of the negative reviews for this product. This is my go to lipgloss!

   im quite dark and very tanned. I get up to an NC40. its hard for me to find lipglosses and lipsticks that flatter my skin without washing me out. the color Natural is perfect for me! its got the perfect amount of brown and pink to flatter my skin color. Doesnt look too nude, but the pigmentation is enough to give me a little something. The texture is great, not too sticky but stays put for a few hours, very creamy and easy to apply, doesnt bleed or get cakey. I personally LOVE the smell, to me it smells like the Hawaiian fruit punch I used to drink as a kid. Some people call it medicinal cherry, I personally am not offended by the scent but I guess if your sensitive to certain scents go smell them in person before ordering online. You get a great amount for the price, great packaging. Nyx is my favorite brand for lip products and as far as the mega shine glosses theres a color for everyone. Natural just happens to be one of my faves. Great product! Will repurchase.
