all about being glam: Review : NYX Round Lipsticks.

WARNING: PHOTO HEAVY post ]

Hey! I was out the whole day, that is why I am making this post just now. So, I will go straight to the main "purpose" of the post now. :)

If you have been following me for quite some time now. You already know how I adore lipsticks. As I have mentioned on my Lipstick Tag post, I own 34 lippies as of the moment. 15 of them are from NYX Cosmetics' Round Lipsticks. I have quite a lot of it because I was overwhelmed on how cheap it is and how beautiful the colors are. I just cant help myself. LOL.

NYX Round Lipsticks.

I got it last year for Php 100.00 each but I had to wait for more than a month. I forgot where though. It was from an online shop but I seriously forgot the name. But Kering-keri Store sells them for PHp 130.00 each, on hand. CHECK THE STORE NOW!

HERE ARE THE SHADES I OWN. [ not in particular order. ]

I actually got a lot of pink shades because I want to "play" safe. I wanted to have wearable shades so that my money won't go to waste. BUT honestly, I don't really use them a lot. Why?! Read on!

I like how simple and chic the packaging is. It is a simple black tube but the "designs" around the brand name and the fonts used added some fun vibe to it.

What you see on the bottom is also the color you get. [ in most of the shades. ]

You can also see the ingredients list and other important infos on the side of the tube.

And then you can see the shade and the weight on the top of the lid.

Hand Swatches.

PINKS.

NUDES.

And the REDS.

The finish of the lipsticks aren't matte. But it isn't too glossy as well. They are very creamy but not all of them are pigmented enough for my super pigmented lips. :D

PROS.

-- They have a wide range of colors that you can choose from. Nudes to Pinks and Reds.

-- It is very creamy. So, it glides on smoothly on the lips.

Good pigmentation. I do think that the pigmentation is quite good. Especially the darker shades.

-- Its cheap! I got it for 100. And I have seen online shops selling it for 130 -150 pesos.

Visit Kering- keri Store on Facebook.

-- I like the packaging. Very simple but not too dull. I thinks it looks so chic. And also, it won't eat up tons of space inside your kit.

-- I think they smell really nice. For me, they do smell like candies. That might be an issu for others but not for me. :)

~~CONS~~

-- They melt easily! Especially in the kind of weather we have. A lot of them that I own are broken already because of the heat. I think they are really made for cold countries.

-- Some aren't that pigmented.

-- The lasting power isn't that long. It will fade after 2-3 hours. And I don't like that I need to keep on retouching it.

-- They are not moisturizing at all. BUT isn't that drying as well.

-- Sometimes I don't like the creaminess of it. Some shades tend to look super thick after 2 or more coats.
UPDATE: For others it smells and taste like soap. I don't know why it smells like candy for me. hehe. But I agree that it taste like soap.

Here are the TOP 5 shades that I love the most.

[ lip swatches ]

Fire, Thalia, Spellbound, Hero and Paris.

If you guys notices, my upper lip is really dark. I do not smoke or anything. But it is like that ever since I was a kid. That's why I cannot really wear sheer lipsticks or whatever. :)

I also like and recommend Hermes, Fig, Louisiana and Pink Lyric.

Will I repurchase?!

I don't think I need more from the brand/line. I have been meaning to buy lipsticks with BETTER quality and lipsticks that I can really use.

Will I recommend?!

YES! I think it is perfect for every day use. If you want a huge selection of colors, definitely check this out!

Overall, I like them. They make me happy!

I have said that I will buy BETTER quality lippies but I didn't say that there are bad ones. I was just saying that I know there are a lot more better ones out there. But overall, for the price, quality and color selection. THUMBS UP! ♥

So, that's it for this review. I know a few people who are waiting for this one. hehe
I apologize that it took me awhile. :) I hope you guys enjoyed this. MWAH! ♥

Have you guys tried any shade from this brand/line already?! What shade is your most favorite?! Do you want ti try this lipsticks out?!
