NYX Professional Makeup Butter Gloss Non-Sticky Lip Gloss

by NYX Professional Makeup · makeup

Editor's Take

NYX nails the cushiony, non-sticky shine, but the mineral-oil base is pure throwback drugstore chemistry with little clean-beauty credibility.

Four-pillar formula scores

  • Efficacy: 7.8 / 10
  • Modern Tech: 4.5 / 10
  • Clean Beauty: 1.0 / 10
  • Sustainability: 3.0 / 10

The Verdict

The strong efficacy band is earned: Polybutene and Diisostearyl Malate give this gloss glossy payoff, cushion, and comfortable wear. Its clean score is poor, while the technology is conventional and sustainability fit is lower, largely because Mineral Oil, Paraffin, and persistent synthetic polymers dominate the base. A credible budget pick for classic high-shine lips, not a modern clean formula.
