NYX Professional Makeup Butter Lipstick Review

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.

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.

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.

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.
