Undressed: NYX Cosmetics Lip Lingerie Liquid Lipsticks

title So clearly liquid lipsticks are all the rage right now.  The liquid formula has been around for a while, but the matte liquid lip is really what’s been on every brand’s radar for the past year.

When I think of matte liquid lipsticks, three come to mind: Kylie Lip Kits, Anastasia Beverly Hills Liquid Lipsticks, and the Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipsticks. I have the Kat Von D and the Kylie ones, and both of them are amazing. In addition to those, I have a ton of other formulas from many brands, including the NYX Lip Lingerie.

NYX’s Lip Lingeries are relatively new and they are a weightless liquid lipstick with a matte finish. Available in 12 shades, most of which are nude (get it?), they are an amazing contender for an incredible matte liquid lipstick.

So why do I love these so much? Well, they really are weightless. I have a few of the Kylie Lip Kits and although I absolutely love those, they tend to feel heavy after a while (especially if you reapply, which you have to do with the darker shades if you eat), and they tend to ball up and crust away, which gets annoying. These are comfortable to wear (i.e. they don’t really feel like you’re wearing something on your lips) and they aren’t drying at all (major plus).

I received three of the colours, Bedtime Flirt (a red-toned pink), Honeymoon (a grey-toned beige) and Ruffle Trim (cinnamon pink). Bedtime Flirt was the first shade I tried out since I love a lighter pinky-toned nude, and although I thought this one would be my fave of the three, the other two also looked gorgeous when applied. These apply colour in one swipe and look ultra matte, no shine here! Best of all, they retail for C$9, which is a steal considering other matte liquid lips start in the $20 range…

As with any matte lipstick, make sure your lips are moisturized, as the product tends to settle in lines. Overall though, I absolutely love these and totally want to pick up some of the lighter shades. If you’re looking for an affordable version of the matte liquid lip trend, I would definitely consider these as they rival their more expensive counterparts.
