NYX Round Lipstick in Nyx - Review, Photos, Swatches

Tweet

NYX Round Lipstick in Nyx is my favorite drugstore orange lipstick. It's creamy with hints of shimmer in it. I totally agree that it deserves to be named "Nyx" because the color is just pretty. It's not totally bright; more like a tangerine or dark orange that's jazzed up with golden shimmer.

PROS: It's creamy, opaque, and the color is fab! And it's REALLY affordable, too!

CONS: My only problem with NYX Round Lipsticks is the longevity. Is it because they're really creamy? I don't know. One should probably apply a primer first to extend it's wear.

VERDICT: 4 out of 5 CHILIS! This lipstick would have been perfect if only it's long wearing. But really, can you expect a lipstick this affordable to be as long wearing as MAC or other high-end brands? I don't think so.

Orange lipsticks? People have mixed emotions about these babies. Half of them are raving about it, while the other half is sticking up their nose.

I was initially thrown-off about this idea, too. I thought, that'll be like wearing cheddar cheese on my lips. But for the heck of it, I gave it a try.

It wasn't that bad. It wasn't bad at all. :)

Just like red lipsticks (or any lipstick for that matter), there are things you need to consider when purchasing the orange lipstick for you.

You want it bright? Dark? Coral-y? Almost red? Deep? Pale?
How about the finish? Matte? Creamy? Glossy? Lustre?


These are just some of the things to consider when you're looking for a lipstick in a particular shade, especially something that's out of the ordinary.

Now let me share with you the orange lipsticks that I found that works for me (or at least something that I enjoy wearing).

Remember, there's no such thing as a universal lipstick. You have to look for the lipstick that will work for you. And how do you find it? By trying on as many as you can :)
