Pump it Up Lindsay

Do I want to look like Lindsay Lohan? Not really. Do you? Didn't think so.

I get what NYX is trying to do here, I really do. And you know me, I love NYX. But this product was a fail for me. Let me explain why...

This is NYX's pump it up lip plumper in Lindsay for $6. I am normally a fan of lip plumpers. I like the tingle, this color was pretty, and the name made me laugh. I thought they were making fun of Lindsay...but you really do look like her when you wear this...

The second I swatched this, I was like ooh. And not in a good way. Super frosty.

But still, that could have been my poor color choice. But oh no. Read on pandas.

I know this is the most unflattering picture ever, but it was because my lips HURT. This BURNS like crazy. Not the nice tingle, a crazy crazy burn that made me want to rip my lips off. It did make them swell, but I would be surprised if it didn't. The color is frosty and I just looked like a Hollywood has-been.

Final Thoughts: Please pass on this. I burned my lips so you don't have to, okay?

Price: 8/10
Staying Power: Don't know. Scrubbed it right off.
Packaging: 10/10
Color/Wearability: 0/10
Quality/Branding: 5/10

Total: 23/40 = F = Panda Hates This...Sadly :(

Have you tried this and had the same problem? I really wanted to love this because I love NYX, but it was unbearable.

    1. Hey Aleeza, thanks for the comment! I know, this would look good on NO ONE. Not even to go with a costume. Unless it is your costume -- scary lipstick haha :)
