So a couple of week ago I decided to treat myself to a couple of new lipsticks. I've had my eye on some NYX lippy shades for a while and this time I just thought i'd take the plunge and get a couple. I've never owned a liquid lipstick before nor have I owned anything from NYX so I was rather excited to try something new. I'm a bit late jumping on the bandwagon I'm aware but I wanted to share with you the things that I love and dislike about them.
Budapest
This lip shade is from the Soft matte collection and is perfect for autumn and winter months due to its plummy berry shade. It looks lovely on the lips, when applying it goes on smoothly with no streaks. However it is a bit drying on the lips but out of the two it is the least drying, it also takes a while to dry completely. For me personally the negatives don't put me off that much because I absolutely adore this colour on me and I do love the product.
Sandstorm
This lip shade is from the Liquid Suede collection and I know I'll be wearing this colour at any time of the year. I'd say this is a dupe for Velvet teddy as it looked quiet similar when I had it on my lips BUT I think I'm the only person that can't tell the difference between all nudes, they all look the same to me. But back to the product. I absolutely love this shade, as I'm a big nude lipstick fan, but this one is very drying, it doesn't feel very pleasent so I'm not a big fan. This one also takes a while to dry but even when it's dry to me it feels quiet sticky on the lips and that's a big factor to put me off. I'm not overly all that impressed with their suede collection so I don't think i'll be trying any more shades any time soon.
Out of the two, they're completely different shades and I absolutely adore both colours but Budapest has to be my favourite overall. I'm highly impressed with the Soft matte collection, I'd like to invest in some other colours because I've fallen in love already.
What was your favourite out of the two? Have you tried any of the NYX liquid lipsticks? Let me know your thoughts.
Don't forget you can find me in all these places too!
I love the shade Sandstorm! It is gorgeous! I've tried one of NYX liquid lipsticks and absolutely loved it. They're incredible! Great post, Claire! x

Which one did you try? Thankyou Guilianna :) x
DeleteI love the Budapest shade too, such a rich colour. I only have one NYX shade, Stockholm and I love the colour and brand, such affordable makeup.

I keep wearing this one, honestly in love. I may try that one out, normally I don't go for pinks, but it looks like it's more of a nude xx
DeleteOh wow, these shades are absolutely gorgeous! Hopefully Santa will bring me a few if I'm lucky! xx
