Hey there! Today I will talk to you about butter lipsticks by NYX which are relatively new. I picked up one color in the shade gumdrop, number 22.
So at first I was kind of scared of the color. It is definitely out of my comfort zone, but then I thought hey I don't have colors like this at all, so it will be a great opportunity to experiment and create new looks.
To be honest, I am very pleased with the shade. It's a bright barbie pink and it looks gorgeous especially now, when I have tan. I was wearing it with neutral eyes, so I can have that bright pop of color on my lips.
The consistency is very buttery so the lipstick melts easily, that's why it does intend to move quite easily. Especially when it is hot outside.
I would say that this butter lipsticks are pigmented. You can wear them more shear or layer it on, but keep in mind that it can look patchy if your lips have cracks and are very dry. That does not look pretty at all.
The product almost has no smell to it, but there is a tiny bit of a scent. It is not perfumy or sweet. I would say it can remind you the smell of butter (if you could say that butter smells) + some chemicals, obviously.
Yesterday we had to take our puppy to the vet, so I chose NYX butter lipstick to be my lip product of the day. I kind of regretted it. Why? It dried my lips out like crazy. Despite of it being a butter lipstick it is far from being moisturizing. That moisturizing feeling is only when you have the lipstick on.
I picked up the lipstick when it was on sale so I didn't pay much for it. I know that it retails for $5.99 at Ulta Beauty Stores.
I don't regret buying this product, I like it just because I think the color payoff and the color range of these butter lipsticks are amazing. I am considering getting more of them in the future.
Thanks for being with me. xoxo
