Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Fragrance allergens and undisclosed components on the Becca Cosmetics and not on the NYX Professional Makeup.
  • We flag Fragrance allergens and sensitizers, Bacterial or mold growth if applicator contaminated and Mica or talc as filler or colorant carrier on the NYX Professional Makeup and not on the Becca Cosmetics.
  • The Becca Cosmetics is Glycerin, silicones, pigments, film-formers (typical liquid cosmetic gloss) where the NYX Professional Makeup is Pigments, oils, waxes in lip gloss base, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • These two are level, close enough that price and fit should decide it rather than our grade.

Both products run through the same public rubric: materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
