I love the lighter shades for also diluting bolder lipsticks that I don’t enjoy wearing alone, helping me to make use of some beautiful, neglected colours whilst using these to an acceptable level of comfort. It keeps my lips plump but matte and doesn’t sink in the lines of my lips or crack. I have found the best way to use these for me is not directly onto my lips but actually layered on top of a really hydrating lipstick with a lot of slip. Especially when I’ve had to layer them as some of the colours can be streaky and patchy on application on my pigmented lips. They are also very high maintenance in the sense that I have to keep checking my lips in the mirror to keep an eye on the cracking or flaking. Although they are highly pigmented and dry completely matte, they have a tendency to sink into lip lines and dry out my lips like nothing else. These are creams that dry to a liquid lipstick finish, so almost like what the Soft Matte Lip Creams should have been.įirstly I have to state that these are super drying and uncomfortable, compared to the other liquid lipsticks I have. This line offers a whole range of nude shades for different skin tones, from beige, peach, pink to brown and even a terracotta. The release of these was highly anticipated and for some reason (errrrm…Instagram hype!) I decided to jump right in there the morning they became available.

It can be built up to full opacity and dries to a comfortable matte finish. The formula is still the same and smells just as sweet and yummy. It is a deep, neutral mauve that looks very natural and beautiful on the lips. I only picked up one shade – Rome– which to me was the shade that was missing from the original line-up. From a striking violet, a blue lip to a muted brick red, they have really stepped up the game for high-street brands when it comes to being bold and brave. NYX recently added a few newer and more on-trend shades to this infamous line of theirs.

Namely, their new lip cream colours and liquid lipstick lines. They’ve dangled carrots, we’ve drooled and eagerly anticipated the staggered release of exciting products we knew we had to have.

And yes, we all went a little cray-cray and bought whatever was on our NYX wish lists as though we feared that window of opportunity would be taken away from us.Īnd NYX have been great at making sure we don’t just treat them like any other high-street/drugstore brand. NYX Cosmetics finally became easily accessible to us at the end of last year.
