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.
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.
