Review & Swatches: NYX Round lipsticks

Black Cherry: dark red
I don't think red's do well in this type of texture, it's too creamy and going over the same area with lipstick makes the color unevne

Not applied very well not that I look at it up close... I tried.

Thalia (neutral mauve)

Strawberry Milk (cool-toned baby pink)

Harmonica (frosty light pink)

Orange Soda (skintone nude, cream finish)

Sorry about the inconsistent lighting, I took these pictures on different days so I don't have to waste the lipstick or makeup remover.

The color in the pictures are generally accurate, except for Strawberry Milk which is more pink than lavender in real life.

Pros:

- Creamy texture

- Goes on smooth

- Pigmented

- No scent / odor

- Large color selection

Cons:

- Made in China

- Swatches online and on the bottom of the lipstick are sometimes misleading

- Kind of hard to find in drugstores

Verdict:

At the inexpensive price, I do recommend it because they are good lipsticks.

After trying Black Cherry (cream), I can safely say that I can't pull off a dark red.

Thalia (cream) is supposedly a dupe of Rimmel Lasting Finish in Airy Fairy, but Airy Fairy is a more complex color.

Strawberry Milk (cream) is a cool-toned pale pink, looks a bit lavender in the picture.

Harmonica (frost) is a frosty light pink.

Orange Soda (cream) is a dupe of Revlon Nude Attitude

I thought I'd like Strawberry Milk the best but it seems that Harmonica is more flattering on me.

Price:

$3-5 depending on where purchased.

I have seen these at the Basic clothing store, Ulta, and select beauty boutiques around NorCal.

Repurchase?

Yes, but only other colors
