- “I definitely don't agree that this feels like a buttery balm. It kind of just has that coconut oil like texture and that it's a little bit hard at first and then when you kind of like press into it, it starts to melt down and transform into an oil”2:06–2:11
- “That oil meltdown does feel a little bit too greasy for my personal preference”2:20–2:24
- “It does remove my makeup well, so no complaints there”2:36–2:39

Brand note
NYX is the drugstore brand that shows up when creators want affordable, functional makeup with actual shade options. The Wonder Snatch Lifting Setting Powder gets the most talk — it's mattifying and smoothing, but the tiny .2 oz size makes it expensive per ounce, and some find it gives flashback or doesn't control oil all day. The brand's lip stains also get consistent love for longevity and precision. Overall, NYX is a solid go-to for budget-friendly basics, but you have to watch the value on some products.
