NYX Matte Lipstick

Hey guys, so I am already a huge NYX fan, they make great quality makeup at amazing value too, I had seen this on there website and wanted to order them instantly, they are a range of 'matte lipsticks' and at £6.00 each I wanted to try them out. I decided on 4 shades (from left to right):

  • Bloody Mary
  • Whipped Caviar
  • Angel
  • Euro Trash

I like the simple black & white packaging however being just £6 means they are not the sturdiest and they wobble slightly when I was appying it, but the colours more than make up for the 'cheaper' packaging. Below is a mini review of each.



Bloody Mary NYX matte lipstick

This shade is beautiful, although in the photos it does look quite glossy, within minutes it dries to a nice matte finish. This is a lovely red shade with a slighty berry undertone. It is very bold and striking and makes a real statement. (Excuse my application it smudged a little on my lower lip!)


Whipped Caviar NYX matte lipstick

Love this shade, it is a natural/dark nude colour with slight pink/taupe tones. So lovely to wear day to day and just brightens your face. It looks elegant and I think very easy to wear. Beautiful!


Angel NYX matte lipstick

This is probably my favourite of the 4 shades, a bright pinky/coral shade and very wearable, it brightened my face and almost has a hint of red to it too which I love, again like all the lipsticks, it applies evenly and dries matte.


Euro Trash NYX matte lipstick
This is a brown/nude and looks darker in real life than here in the photo, it could almost be used to recreate the Kylie Jenner lip, I love this nude lipstick and can see myself wearing it a lot this Autumn/Winter. 

Overall this lipstick is extremely pigmented, applies beautifully and smoothly and long lasting, and from pure red to light nudes NYX makes this lipstick in 22 colours. I think the price is amazing and if your looking for a new lipstick to try, visit their website now: NYX Cosmetics

Love me beauty

So recently I've been hearing and seeing alot of 'beauty boxes' being blogged about, so I thought I'd try one out, after some googling and searching I decided to sign up to lovemebeauty.com which was  a £10 a month subscription, and each month you have 3 options to choose from, as soon as I placed my selection I was counting down for its arrival. And when it arrived I was not disappointed,  such cute packaging it felt like a birthday present (from me, to me).
Inside was 5 different producs from pretty unknown brands, and I loved all of them, from the face wash (which had a lovely minty scent and felt very cleansing and refreshingby urban veda) to the NYX nail varnish in silver glitter - I love NYX products recently they are such good quality considering the pricing- the beauty box really had some great products that I wouldnt have know about if I hadnt signed up, definitely worth treating yourself to a monthly beauty box so sign up!




Love,
