URBAN DECAY RAZOR SHARP EYELINER VS NYX GLAM LINER
I was curious how the Urban Decay Razor Sharp eyeliners compare to my (already beloved) Nyx Glam liners, especially since the price difference is $22 (Urban Decay) vs. $5.49 (Nyx)!
Urban Decay wins of course with the packaging- it does not look as cheap as the Nyx does. But I really don´t care for that so much.
Open them up and you will see that the Urban Decay is not thinner than the Nyx Glam liner- which the name "Razor sharp" kinda suggested to me that it would be soo super thin. The Nyx Glam liner brush is also a little longer than Urban Decay´s.
I think both of them are easy to apply and create a nice fine line.
The Nyx Glam liner consistence is maybe a hint thicker than the Urban Decay which feels thinner and applies maybe a hint smoother.
Since Nyx and Urban Decay are both owned by Loreal (though both Nyx and Urban Decay are cruelty free vs. Loreal is not), I am not surprised how similar these 2 eyeliners perform.
I was also curious if they maybe use the same formulation and checked the ingredients- and both list as their first 3 ingredients the exact same ones: Water, Acrylates and a form of Glycol. All colors have different colors added of course- so you can´t say that the formulation is the exact same, but the main ingredients are- with one complaint: the Nyx Glam liner uses parabens (that are questionable in regards of potentially leading to cancer) while Urban Decay doesn´t.
In the end you can´t really go wrong wit the Nyx Glam liner for only $5.49! I think it just is up to you and which color you prefer! And I still absolutely love my Nyx Glam liner in Nude! So Glam!
