Who it suits

Colour theory suggests NYX Comets Tail works with cool, neutral and warm undertones.

Its medium depth sits most naturally on fair, light, medium, tan and deep skin.

A gloss finish is shiny and often sheer, so Comets Tail can read lighter and more translucent on the lips than its hex; payoff depends on the formula.
