best and worst of nykaa cosmetics
Best & Worst of Nykaa Cosmetic Products

Worst of Nykaa Cosmetics

Nykaa BlendMaster All-rounder Makeup Blender Sponge

Worst of Nykaa Cosmetics

Nykaa BlendMaster All-rounder Makeup Blender Sponge is regarded as a stiff and not bouncy. Many customers claim that it does not blend your foundation well and soaks up a lot of product.

Nykaa Unicorn Potion Nail Enamel

Worst of Nykaa Cosmetics

This product might look good and might make your nails pretty until you remove it. I’ve used the shade “Sunshine & Rainbows” and damn I hate it. It peeled off the first layer of my nails. If you follow me on Instagram, you might know about it as I’ve mentioned about this product with pictures.

Nykaa SKINgenius Conceal & Correct Palette

Worst of Nykaa Cosmetics

Nykaa SKINgenius Conceal & Correct Palette does look like Pro Conceal & Correct but does not work and perform well like the MAC’s. Some shades are very dry and do settle into fine lines.

Nykaa SKINgenius Foundation Stick Conceal Contour & Corrector

Worst of Nykaa Cosmetics

I love the Nykaa SKINgenius Sculpting & Hydrating Foundation. But cannot say the same for this stick conceal contour & corrector. It’s simple dry and does not sit well on the skin. It can only be used with your fingers for an even base.

Nykaa SKINgenius BB Cream SPF30

Worst of Nykaa Cosmetics

Nykaa SKINgenius BB Cream is a waste of money! Totally! I love their SKINgenius Sculpting & Hydrating Foundation, but this BB cream is a total miss. You can avoid it too. Just get their SKINgenius hydrating foundation. This BB cream does not sit well on the skin and it’s staying power is very poor.

Nykaa Dual Tone Nail Enamel Remover

Worst of Nykaa Cosmetics

Nykaa Dual Tone Nail Enamel Remover is probably the worst nail polish remover I’ve ever tried. It is a dual-phase nail polish remover that you have to shake before usage. It does not remove your nail polish effectively, requires a lot of product to remove a sing nail’s polish. Totally skip this one.

Nykaa Molten Matte Lip & Cheek Colour

Worst of Nykaa Cosmetics

This was a very hyped product as it was named after many TV series characters. But Nykaa Molten Matte Lip & Cheek Colour is not at all pigmented. You need at least 2-3 swipes of it for the color to show up.
