Nyx Soft Matte Lip Creme

So I'm not sure how I discovered the Nyx products. I think Emily revealed them to me. I can't remember. Anyway, they make some pretty awesome stuff.

I ordered 3 Nyx Soft Matte Lip Creme a couple weeks ago and they just arrived on Tuesday, so I thought I would blog about them! I know everyone loves seeing my face.

The Nyx Matte Glosses are not lipstick nor are they very glossy. They're just a thick type of pigmented lipstick. Like everyone says, it is hard to explain until you put it on your lips. It's not supposed to be too glossy. It literally just adds color, like you were born with that color lip. Nyx describes them as a "lip paint", which I think is the best description. After all, they made the product!

The glosses are named after cities. If you want to explore the different cities that they have, go to their website. They are phenomenal lip products.

I ordered Amsterdam, Abu Dhabi, and Antwerp. Amsterdam and Antwerp are like regular colors, every girl should have at least one at her disposal. Abu Dhabi is not a color everyone can wear... but I can! It's a brown-ish color - I think about Princess Jasmine in Aladdin for whatever reason. I feel like I should put on a mesh veil and bellydance.

When I get a job and make big girl monies, I will probably order Monte Carlo and then San Paulo. Addis Ababa looks like so much fun, but that would probably look really weird on me and also it just does not look appropriate for any occasion other than a cocktail party in the spring. And I don't attend those.

Commence pictures!

Amsterdam

I'm not the best at applying... especially in the corners of my mouth. But as you can see, it is *RED*

Without flash.

Antwerp

A nice pink color. But in the next picture, it looks completely different. So I added both.

It looks like a different lipstick completely. Don't ask me!

Without flash. I didn't get a very good one up close.

Abu Dhabi

MY FAVORITE OK

It might wash out my face a little, but I don't think it's too bad. Others will have to tell me if it does or not. I think it looks GREAT! It's sort of a light light brown.

With flash.

I literally want to go to Morocco in this photo. Too bad I am wearing green.

I couldn't get the best photos of it. I don't know how people with beauty blogs do this all the time, I would get really frustrated. This is the best I could do.

And that's it! I hope you enjoyed looking. And if you want to try the Nyx products for yourself, I suggest you do it. All I have right now are these lip cremes, but if I were to want to try something else from Nyx I would do it in a heartbeat! I can't wait to wear these out places (currently, I am going no where because I don't have a job... have I said that here yet? I guess it's time for a different life update post!)
