Great pop of colour

I really like this lippy! They are cheap and cheerful, great to add a pop of colour to any look. I have the colour "Taffy" which is a lovely bright pink. The formula is nice and moisturising and keep my lips in good nick. The packaging is pretty standard for NYX. The only thing is the colour pay-off, it just doesn't last so you do need to apply often.

I'd say 45mins-1hr, a lip liner would help but I found it wore out in the middle of my lips and not on the edges

How long do these last on you? (Roughly), and do you need a lip liner? I want to try these really badly

NYX Butter Lipstick

I recently purchased 2 of the NYX Butter Lipsticks, as I love the butter lipglosses I just had to try the lipsticks also!

I have the colour's Liquorish, which is the perfect winter season colour! It is a really deep black cherry colour, It is by far my favourite. I have Hunk, which is my least favourite out of the 3 I own, just because it looks like a really nice deep plum/red but when applied it is quite sheer, its still nice its just not what I expected. And the last one is Snow Cap. Which is a really nice nude, kind of a your lips but better colour, It is perfect for minimal makeup days, I also wear it to work a lot.

So firstly, I will say that these lipsticks do not last long, They are very creamy which does make them bleed a bit, I always apply a lip liner but after an hour the lip colour definatly looks worn, I wouldn't suggest wearing these if you are going out to eat ha :D

But, they are really affordable, there is a good selection of colours to choose from, and they have a nice finish for the short while they stay on your lips. The colours I have except the one mentioned, are really opaque and have a nice creamy finish.

I probably wont buy anymore of the NYX Butter Lipsticks just because there are a lot more affordable brands I prefer, plus I like the NYX Black Label Lipsticks a lot more! But I think for the colour selection and price I would recommend them to someone just starting out with makeup or experimenting with colour.

Tips: Apply a lip liner first, as they do bleed.

Butter Lipsticks

I saw some great reviews and swatches of these and considering they are affordable I went a little crazy and brought 9 from Urban Outfitters site.

I am very pleased with the colours I brought. There is maybe 1 or 2 I could do without. I haven't tested them all to great extent but the ones I have have been what I expected. They claim to be long lasting, I found they do last better then other cheap brands I've tried (especially better then the NYX round lipsticks!) without eating I found them find for 2-3 hours. Once I eat though all bets are off. Which is fine, they're affordable!

The packaging is a little tacky with all the writing on it, but the clear middle showing the colour is useful.

They're super creamy! Super hydrating. They glide on, some more pigmented then others but I'll get into that next as I list the colours.

I have (from light to dark):

POPS, a nude pinky beige colour. Nicely pigmented, hydrating and creamy.

TAFFY, a pretty light pink. It's quite sheer I find compared to the others. But just as creamy and hydrating.

LITTLE SUSIE, darker mid pink. Nicely pigmented. It's my favourite pink out of the bunch I got. A very sweet and pretty colour.

SWEET TART, is very similar to Little Susie but more sheer (but build-able) it's a touch darker too.

RAZZLE, is a bright fuchsia pink. Pigmented and creamy.

JUJU, I first saw this colour worn by Shaaanxo in a video which looked really pretty. It's a red but very wearable as it's lighter then most reds I've seen. This one is nicely pigmented too.

MARY JANE, is a true red shade, darker then Juju. Its one of my favourites even though it scares me a little. I say this as I steer more towards matte reds due to them being easier to wear (more long lasting) but this one is great as it's more hydrating then a matte. I just need to be more careful and able to do regular touch ups.

HOT TAMALE, is a loud true orange. If you like orange this is definitely one to try. It's very pigmented! I haven't been brave enough to wear this out yet!

HULK, is a dark purple, with a slight red to it. Now this looks super dark in the bullet but applies quite sheer, which is disappointing. But it's build-able! It's not what I expected considering all the other dark shades were true to colour and pigmented.

So like a lot of product lines, there are hits and misses but from my collection they have all been creamy and hydrating and even the sheer ones have been build-able.

I think these are a lot better then some other lipsticks in this price range and the colour selection is awesome. The colours are very wearable and universal in my opinion.

Tips: Using a lip pencil would help these lippies heaps, especially for the darker shades. Being so creamy has it's downfalls when it comes to it's longevity.

Great Value

I have the shade 'Hot Tamale' which I just had to get after seeing a member wearing this on Instagram. It is a beautiful, bright, in your face Orange/red. Definitely more orange than red but so much fun to wear.

What I love about these lipsticks is now nice they feel on the lips. The colour glides on easily, and it feels so smooth to rub your lips together. And it has a great colour pay off. With this bright shade especially I didn't need to put on much more than a swipe, but of course you can layer it up.

I did find that the colour stuck around for quite sometime. I wouldn't stay it was smudge proof, but it did leave me with a fair bit of colour for most of my day. It would need a touch up after eating.

I also really love how the packaging of these lip sticks are very true to the colour of the lipstick it's self, as there is a clear middle section that allows you to see the true colour.

Im really impressed with the price point on these too. I plan to add more to my collection soon.

Tips: I would suggest wearing a lip liner, as the creamy buttery texture of these lipsticks means that they have a tendency to move around a bit.

Melts just like butter but not in the gross way!

I purchased a selection of these off of NYX directly recently during their huge 4th of July sale and was awesomely impressed! Firstly I ordered them as I loved how cute they looked with the barrel and lid of the lipstick container matching its colour to the lipstick inside and have heard nothing but good things about them.

As mentioned above they have the cutest packaging for lipsticks in this price range, with their branding embossed in white and the easy to use twist up motion and a lid that snaps shut rather than sort of closes and then pops off in your bag kind of lid, this means that I can safely carry my lipstick with me throughout the day should I need a top up.

Lasting power shown by the butter range is great, I applied the 2 coats in the morning, blotted and only needed to top up after lunch for a full day coverage, this was mainly the case for the darker shades but found that a couple of the pink/salmon tones tend to wash away on my face during the day, regardless if I have eaten or drunk anything.

The lipstick itself is very luxurious to put on, it does feel like butter but not in the gross way, it’s smooth and almost melts onto your lips for a plump full look with even coverage of its highly pigmented colour. I have 8 of these that range from light beige, reds, pink, coral and deep plums, out of all of them my favourite is Liquorice it’s the most perfect purple plum I own without being over the top.

Tips: Don't use a primer, I did and it actually made it go a bit fluffy looking, not sitting on the lips. I think it was because it sort of melts onto your lips, perhaps its the warmth of your lips that give it that luxury feel.

Buttery Goodness.

I had been wanting to try these since they came out and managed to grab some when NYX had a 40% off sale. I got the shades Hubba Bubba, Big Cherry, Little Susie, Sweet Tart and Licorice.

As their name suggests, these lipsticks are supremely buttery. In fact, these are the most comfortable lipsticks I have ever worn. They feel extremely creamy applying them and once applied. They have a slight gloss finish and are really pigmented as well as hydrating.

I found that the lighter colours aren't as pigmented as the darker colours and need at least two coats if you want them opaque. The darker colours, however, are extremely pigmented and require only one coat.

Because they are so creamy, their lasting power isn't that great. After about an hour - two hours I found I need to reapply them. I don't mind this though because they feel so good on your lips.

I love the packaging of these - the fact that the tube is the colour of your lipstick is really helpful when they are in your lipstick collection as you can immediately see which colour you are after.

These are something I would definitely recommend and I want to try out other shades from the range.

Beautifully buttery

I recently purchased my first ever NYX Butter Lipstick, and I have to say, I am impressed!

I have the shade Big Cherry; a really pigmented, vibrant red.

The formula is silky smooth and glides on really easily, it has a gloss finish to it. It leaves a nice, hydrated feeling to my lips. I wore this all day and into the late evening, and not once did my lips feel dry, chapped or start 'cracking'. This is a huge, huge plus for me, as i work in air conditioning and my lips are forever dry!

I had minimal bleeding, (I didn't use a liner), although due to the creaminess of the formula, it does smear easily.

The staying power is quite good, I found I only needed to re-apply a top up after lunch and dinner.

I can't wait to try out some of the other colours in this range.

Tips: Use a lip liner to stop it smearing outside the lip line, and keep a pocket mirror handy so you can keep tabs on it!

Smooth as butter

I have the gorgeous colour licorice.

I like the packaging. The wee window lets you see the colour right away. The outside colour does this as well when it is amongst the rest of your lippys.

Lid comes off easily enough. Still grips a bit so it's not going to fall off on its own.

Wind the colour up and the stick is a nice point. Did the smell test, and no smell. It just glides onto your lip. It's honestly like butter. It kind of melts on. Lips feel lovely.

I was expecting this to wear off really quickly as it goes on so easily. I was wrong. For me it stays on all day. No touch ups! Your lips don't feel dried out or anything. I just love it.

Will be buying more for sure. Great product at a great price

Tips: Exfoliate your lips regularly and put a balm in at night. A smooth lip makes this lipstick shine.

NYX Butter Lipstick

I heard so many rave reviews about these that I had to give them a go. I got some off ebay and then when NYX had their 4th of July sale I bought some more.

I like the packaging, it's different to most standard lipstick bullets, the clear bit in the middle shows the shade which is great.

They feel amazing to wear - they really are buttery. Just glides on. I had dry lips from wearing a different lipstick that was really drying and it helped them feel hydrated again. They have pretty good staying power, though each shade is quite different in terms of how long it wears.

Compared to other lippies, for the price they are AMAZING and I will definitely be recommending them, and buying more!

Nice but not my Fave

I have these in 2 shades - licorice and pops and they're really nice and opaque but I'm not the biggest fan of them. They claim to be hydrating but I actually find these to be a little dry on the lips especially if you're wearing them for a long time. I don't find they wear super long either, maybe a couple of hours with minimal drinking/eating, I'm not a fan as I like my lipstick to last a little longer than that. I do like the colours though, they're extremely pretty and very pigmented which is nice.
