Does The Nyx Worth The Hype Mascara Live Up To Its Name?

I have to admit to you guys, it's taken me like a month to get this post together.

And that's because I really wanted to make this review good and give myself time to really test out the product.

If there's ever ONE thing I'm crap at reviewing. It's mascara. And I usually tend to just say 'oh this is really good' and then fall out of love with it weeks down the line. (The exception being the Benefit Bad Gal Bang)

Today kids, we're turning our attention to the latest mascara in my collection. The Nyx Worth The Hype. Which is basically already giving itself a huge reputation and makes me expect BIG THINGS.

Retailing at £9.00, it's quite a small mascara offering 7ml with plastic packaging so feels lightweight but *slightly* cheap. It would be good for travel though. But the product design is pretty cool - and you know me, I looooove a pop of pink somewhere.

As you can see in the pic above, the brush is quite big so it already looks like it might deliver the volume and length it claims to give... Or it could be an utter fail...

So shall, should we put it to the test??


Like I said, I've tried this for around a month, so here's my verdict.

It's okay.

In the pic above you can see it does coat my lashes well but I don't know if going straight to this from the Benefit one made my expectations too high. But gal, I see no volume and only length. I'm the kind of person that only adds one layer of mascara so IT IS good in the respect that you can put in minimal effort for minimal results - and you could add some more layers for a better result.

But for me, I'm not sure. Don't get me wrong I do like this mascara and I'm already considering repurchasing as I'm warming to the finish it gives my lashes, but it's quite tricky to get every lash with the huge brush.

Worth the hype??? If you like more natural looking lashes that are relatively quick to get then YES! But being fully honest with you, it's a good buy to get to try it out and see how it works for you, but my heart is with my beloved Maybelline Lash Sensational - and Benefit BGB.

(Now I'm wondering if I'm being biased because I want to try the Glossier Lash Slick haha)
