Swatches: NYX Round Lipsticks

The other two lip products I purchased were the NYX Round Lipsticks. I also got a nude shade and a pink shade in these. You know, I could pair them with my NYX Mega Shine Lip Glosses!

LSS529 Thalia

The feel of these is amazing. Very creamy! They apply smoothly and are lightweight on the lips.

These lipsticks are more opaque than I thought they would be. Paparazzi is a very pretty pink. A mix of Barbie pink and bubblegum pink. It's nice. More bright of a pink than I would normally wear but it's cute.

Thalia was not at all what I expected. It looks very, I'm going to say it again, "milky"--for lack of a better word. I don't think this one looks the same applied as it does in the tube. It's not bad, it will just take getting used to. I'm sure I could use this one to tone down a bright eyed look or with a smokey eye.

While these may take some time to feel "normal" to me, I don't regret my lipstick purchases. They feel good on my lips and the lasting power isn't bad at all. I can't pin point a precise time, but I know it's a good while.

I am definitely going to look for some more of these so I am asking you all to leave me your recommendations in the comment box, please. Thank you my, Pretties!

Luv & Luk,

    @Miss Tapia, get it! I'm sure it would look so pretty on you!

    @Vintage Makeup, I thank you. I'm starting to warm up to wearing pink :) I'm more of a neutral/brownish lippie kinda gal :)

    @Ev, I liked Paparazzi more than Thalia. Thalia is a pretty color but not sure for my skin tone. And I liked the names too. I'm a sucker for makeup names :)

    @frugalspender19, yes! Nudes and now pinks are my go-to's LOL. I bet Thalia would look better on you because you are a lighter skin tone than me. But yeah, pick up Paparazzi next time. You'll like it :)
