NYX Butter Lipstick review

Hi guys!

On the last post, I wrote that I would try some lipsticks from NYX and review them as soon as I can. So, here I am! 

There are in total 22 of the NYX Butter Lipsticks. They have from nude shades to pink to coral to the dark red shades. I ordered 6 of them. 3 nudes (I love nude lip colors), 2 pink/red and the last one is one of the darker shades they have in the line.

This is what they look like on the outside. I love the packaging as the boxes has the actual color of what inside them. You can also see the lipstick through the "glass"-part in the middle.

The lipsticks look beautiful when open as well. NYX Butter Lipsticks do give me a positive first impression.

The color that I got here are:

Snow Cap

Fun Size

Candy Buttons

Fizzies

Big Cherry

Mary Janes

In the same order from left to right.

I just have to say that the lipsticks smell AMAZING! You know the smell of newly baked butter cookies? These babies smell the exact same. So sweet and, of course, buttery.

Ok. Let's get to the swatches!

This is what they look like on my hand. Still the same order. Each lipstick gives a little bit different color on your skin than what you see on the tube. It tends to give you a lighter color when you actually put it on.

The lipsticks goes really smooth on both my hand and lips. It doesn't stick and feel really light on, almost like you only have lipbalm on. The darker shades are much more pigmented on your lips as it appears it's true color on the firste stroke. With the nude shades you have to work more with the layer for the color to show it's full "power". And you kinda have to put some lipbalm on before you apply the nude lipsticks because they dry the crap out of your lips. All the cracks on your lips are going to show, even the tiniest of them. I have really dry and sensitive lips, so I play safe and put some lipbalm on. With the darker shades, you don't need to put on lipbalm because the formular is amazing. It feels so soft and hydrating on your lips. And I think they work the best alone (and lipliner of course) if you want to create a sharp look.

This is my natural lip color

Snow Cap

Snow Cap is the most nude that I have here. The color is similar to my own skin color. I have a yellow undertone, so the lipstick looks more like a concealer with a hint of coral on me. I don't think I can pull this of. But I think it will suit someone with a bit fairer skin than me. This one tends to dry your lips so make sure you have lipbalm underneath.

Fun Size

This one is also a nude, but with more pink shade to it. This one suits me better if I go for a nude lip. The color is similar to the MAC Creme cup. You have to use lipbalm under this one as well because the lipstick is going to dry out your lips.

Candy Buttons

This one is my lip-color-but-better shade. It's a fine mixture of coral, pink and nude color in the same tube. The color is really sweet and can look good on many skin tones. I can totally see myself graping this one for a everyday color. Remember the lipbalm on this as well!

Fizzies

This is a warm pink that gives you lips just enough attention from the rest of the face. The color is beautiful, and the formular on this one is much better than the nude ones. This will look great on anyone who wants a healty rose/red lip color. And you with yellow undertone, this one will suit you perfectly. I find many of pink lipsticks that make my skin look even more yellow than it already was. But this warm pink color gives a warm healty glow. So I really like this one!

Big Cherry

This looks red from the tube, but it gives me more like a hot pink shade with a hint of blue. The formula is good, so you don't need lipbalm for this one. The darker shades may give you a little stain when it fades away. But it's fine with me. Nobody is going to notice your true lip color anyway after wearing dark lipstick. This color is going to take alot attention, so it's can be very beautiful wearing it to special occasion or just want to rock the look on a day at school. 

Mary Janes

From the tube, this lipstick looks like a true red. But it appears as a beautiful vampire/ red wine lipstick. This is one of the warmer red lipsticks that I own. This color will suit any skin tone. The color is gorgeous! It'll be the perfect color to wear on Christmas parties or cold nighs in winter. It's so beautiful and classy. Unlike the other red lipsticks, this one feels light as a feather on your lips, and gives a hydrating feeling as well. 

Ok, that's all of the shades that I have from NYX Butter Lipsticks. I love all colors, but still a little unsure on the first one because it's too similar to my own skin tone. The lasting power is better on the darker shades. And it feels more comfortable on your lips. Still, you have to reapply a few times a day. And it does come off when you eat. But for the price I pay, I don't even want to complain. The lipsticks are pretty amazing. Maybe I'll try out some more lipsticks from the line? I'll let you know.

What are your favorites?
