NYX Liquid Lipsticks | Review



The NYX liquid lipsticks have been riding the hype train like there is no tomorrow. I couldn’t help but join in on the fun. So, I got myself three shades in two different formulas. Amethyst and Stone Fox from the Liquid Suede range and Beauty Mark from the Lingerie range. Let’s put these babies to the test!



Formula


From the getgo, the difference in formula between these two ranges proved huge. Lingerie is super dry, but has amazing staying power. Liquid Suede on the other hand, seems to be it’s complete counter part. The lipsticks are nice and creamy, but the staying power is a lot less as well.


Coverage



It’s no secret that NYX have an insane amount of fun shades. From lime green to the blackest of blacks, they have it all. But how’s the coverage? As you can see from the swatches, the color pay-off between the two ranges is very different. The Lingerie range applies very lightly, but since the formula dries quickly, it’s easy to build up coverage. The Liquid Suede range on the other hand has amazing color pay-off. I tend to do my entire lips in one application. No need to go in a second time.

NYX Lingerie - Beauty Mark

Lingerie

-       Weak color pay-off
-       Buildible (but sometimes patchy)

Verdict


The lipsticks are amazing for their low price (€8,30). The color range is immense and there is even more to come! The metallic shades are already out in the US and we Europeans can’t wait to get our hands on those beauties.
For all of you Kylie fans out there, there are some really pretty nudy browns as well. So, if you can’t seem to get your hands on the Kylie lip kits, fake it 'till you make it with the NYX ones!
