NYX Professional Makeup Matte Lipstick Minx

Breakdown

8 ingredients to avoid

NYX Professional Makeup Matte Lipstick Minx scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

NYX Professional Makeup Matte Lipstick Minx lists 20 ingredients, starting with Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Petrolatum, Polyisobutene, Ethylhexyl Stearate (2-ethylhexyl Stearate, Octyl Stearate) and Hydrogenated Castor Oil. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 NYX Professional Makeup Matte Lipstick Minx scores worse than most lipstick & lip color we have scored. A higher-scoring option in lipstick & lip color is Henné Organics Luxury Lip Tint Nightfall at 90/100.
