NYX Professional Makeup Butter Lipstick Review

I have several of thess lippie's and i must say the red shade is by far my favourite. It is lovely shade and i find it glides on very easily. As the name suggests they apply like butter! I however will say that they aren't long lasting especially when eating oily foods so you may have to reapply throughout the day or wear with a lip liner. Overall for the price i would say it is a decent product and worth the money.

Thats not to say these are the worst lipsticks in the world either. I have the Pops (Root Beer Float) shade and it doesn't survive food (but aside from liquid or retro mattes/mattes, what lipstick does?) and it does like to linger on my coffee mug, but the texture isn't offensive and it does last about 4 hours if I'm not drinking/eating. Pigment is fairly good, it does kind of "stain" my lips after wearing all day.

The name of these lipsticks are right when they say butter - they glide on so easily but I feel that sometimes they are lacking in pigmentation. That may be the colours I have. But not a bad price either.

So i have three of the nyx butter lipsticks. I purchased the true love nyx lipstick and in that set it came with three lipsticks. It came with snow cap, taffy and candy buttons. Taffy is a nice pink colour, but the other two are pretty sheer. I also feel that this lipstick enhances the cracks and fine lines in ur lips.

Very creamy and moisturising, the packaging is adorable and I love how it is the colour of the product which makes it easy to grab the right colour if you are in a rush. Not overly pigmented, so needs lip liner under colours you want to pop and be better lip coverage.

For months I've been watching these on trade me and looking at them on different websites. But I never brought them not sure why. Anyway I entered a competition and was lucky enough to win a Nyx prize pack. All my nyx dreams full filled. I had my eye on sweet tart, hunk and many others.

I was given Snow Cap. This comes in a smooth lipstick holder thats the same colour as the lipstick. I really like the Nyx labelling looks current. This colour is a very pale peachy nude. I do enjoy peachy colours too. There wasn't any scent with this, that didn't bother me. The consistency is so smooth and lives up to its Buttery name. I've not felt a lipstick this smooth before. The colour is bright, I didn't have any patchiness at all.

When I applied it , it just glides on smoothly. When I rub my lips together it feels smooth and soft. It did come off with eating and drinking. I did need to apply more after this. I expect it to come of with most lipsticks though.

Overall this is a winner of a lipstick for me. I really love how it feels on my lips. I will be buying more colours. Their priced affordably and the pigmentation is incredible. I reccomend this as a must have in your make up.

These lipstick come in a standard twist-up lipstick tube. I keep them in my handbag and I find that the twist mechanism is a bit loose. Sometimes the lipstick twist up on its own which can damage the lipsticks and leave stains in my bag. The colour of the packaging matches the colour of the lipstick. It makes it easier to pick up the right shade from my lipsticks drawer without having to open the it.

Most of the shades are very wearable. They don’t seem to have a smell or a taste. The formula is a cross between a lip balm and a lipstick. They literally feel like a lip balm, so hydrating and moisturising. These lipsticks are beautifully pigmented, I am very impressed with the pigmentation.

They apply opaque even with only a couple of swipes, does not look sheer or light like some other lipsticks. The lipstick glides on beautifully across my lips without tugging, my lips feel super moisturising and smooth. That is the “buttery” feels on my lips with a gorgeous satin finish look. These lipsticks last up to 5 hours without eating or drinking and starts fading and drying out a little bit after that.

Overall, NYX Butter Lipstick are excellent quality at an affordable price. I would definitely invest in a few more and would highly recommend it.

I love these lipsticks as a "on the run with errands" kind of lipstick.  They're moisturizing, lightweight, have decent pigmentation (depending on the shade) and they're affordable so it won't hurt the pocket if you lose them.

They come in fun coloured plastic tubes which is almost true to the colour of the lipstick and they have a slight sweet scent.  I must say I was a little disappointed when applying because they go on semi-sheer but I guess it makes it more wearable.  I prefer my lipsticks to go on opaque but it does allow you to build up the colour.  

They go on incredibly smooth and the texture reminds me of a lip balm in lipstick form. It's quite 'buttery' so it's a given that you'll be touching up throughout the day because it tends to slip easily when drinking or eating.

Fizzes -  Is a rose pink shade which on my skintone can appear abit off so I tend to mix it with another lipstick (for reference: MAC NC42-44).

Hunk - Is a magenta plum - not as dark as I would have liked but nothing that a dark lipliner can't fix.

I received my lipsticks as gifts and I bought some myself off of Makeup.co.nz when they were on sale (originally $13.95 sale price $11.95). These lipsticks are fun to have; not a must-have but good to have floating in your bag for emergencies when you need a pop of colour.

I have this product in the colors Candy Buttons and Snow Cap. Both are definitely buttery, smooth and subtle. The colors are beautiful and feel lovely on the lips, I don't notice a smell.

This product however cannot be used alone. If you want a lippie that you can swipe over your lips and it will stay all day this isn't it. If you use it on bare lips you probably wont be too wowed. Because it is so buttery it will slide off.

BUT!!!! If you prep your lips with concealer and/or lip primer, with a matching lip liner, you will love this product. I find them the perfect compliment to the NYC Soft Matte Lip Creams, which can be drying (but have gorgeous pigment!).
