Beauty or Nah: Nyx Matte Lipsticks

Yasmine Missaoui

Hello beauties! It has been a while since I posted, but I’m excited to share my recent beauty finds. Currently, I’m obsessed with matte nude pink lipsticks. I’m always wearing them and trying out many different shades of pink. Throughout my search for a favorite go-to lipstick (from high-end to drugstore), I have discovered that the Nyx Matte Lipsticks are amazing and have a rich, creamy texture initially, before drying into a matte in just five minutes. I find myself not having to touch up as much as I usually would with a non-matte lipstick. For a $6.00 lipstick, it lasts longer than I thought it would. Nyx has a variety of shades to choose from and, for the most part, they go with every skin color. This product applies on to the lips smoothly. Like most matte formulas, I recommend that before applying this lipstick you should exfoliate and moisturize your lips for the best look possible.

I have the colors Whipped Caviar, Natural, and Euro Trash, which are my top-three favorite matte lipstick colors from Nyx.

What I like:

  • Creamy wet matte drying formula that is nice on the lips.
  • Big variety of lipstick colors to choose from.
  • Easy to apply, no messes.

What I dislike:

  • Lipstick can melt in tube under heat.
  • Lipstick lasts only five hours.
