REVIEW: NYX Lip Smacking Fun Colors Lipsticks

By Unknown Monday, September 23, 2013

Hi Ladies! How's your week? I have lots of pending blog updates to post but as usual I'm tired as hell everyday after work. The traffic jam is killing me! But I don't have a choice anyway.

So let me go straight to this post. For those of you who don't know, back in college I was into online selling of cosmetic brands straight from the US. That was the time I got very fond of lipsticks. Of all makeups, lipstick is really my choice. I have dark lips due to Asthma when I was seven and as time went on it became darker and darker. But thankfully now it is not as dark just like before. And one of the lipstick brands that I first tried is this NYX Lip Smacking Fun Color Lipstick.

What is it?
It's a velvet-textured lipstick formulated with mineral oils to provide moisturizing benefits and rich colors. NYX's best selling lipstick, the Round lipstick offers long-lasting, non-smudging colors (NYX Website) I own 4 different shades of this lipstick. And I purchased this 6 months ago. Hahaha! I never knew that I'll be blogging again and I even forgot this product. Natabunan na kasi ng mga bago. And this is one of the best selling products online when I was still doing online selling.

Packaging?

It is a black tube with a cute font on the packaging. It looks cheap but in 6 months time I had this it didn't break unlike the Pinkies Collection Lipstick I owned. I love the bottom part of it that shows the color of lipstick. It has an easy twist lippies and it glides so smoothly whenever you twist it down.

Price?

I bought this for 90 pesos at that time. I don't know if they increased their price. But for those who don't want to purchase this online, it is locally available at Pure Beauty in Serendra and I think NYX Philippines recently open at SM Fairview.

My Review.

Pros..

So creamy and pigmented! I love how it glides smoothly on my lips. One swatch and you'll be fine.
A wide selection of shades. You're gonna drool over the hundred color to choose from.
The scent. It has a Vanilla scent that I love. When I put this one I just want to eat the lippie because it really smells delicious.
The price. Very affordable. This is the product I bought without fear of wasting the money.

Cons..

Melts easily. I remember I bought this last summer. It really melts when I open the lipstick. This is not good in hot temperature. You can see the melted Louisiana shade below.
Doesn't stay long. You need to apply this one every now and then.
Use lip balm. It may dries your lips especially in humid places.

Overall..

I definitely love this lipstick. It's my first love! They are cheap and make you beautiful. I just have to put it in the refrigerator to maintain the shape of the lipstick. I love that I got a hard time picking for the colors to buy because they really have pretty colors to choose from. Swatches here at their website.

Repurchase?

Yes! I would love to have the remaining shades!
