Buy Or Buh-bye: NXY Liquid Suede Lipsticks

Hello lovelies! I'm back with my review on Nyx's Liquid Suede Lipsticks. I purchased two from the line to review for you guys so I hope you like it! 

Okay so I've been in love with Nyx brand for a very long time. It's rare that I come across a Nyx item that I don't like and once again, I'm impressed! There's 13 total and I purchased two colors, Amethyst and Stone Fox. 
From left to right, Tea & Cookies, Amethyst, Kitten Heels and Stone Fox.

Here's what they look like on me!




Amethyst is a bright purple and Stone Fox is a dark gray color. Stone Fox is a strange shade that can easily be mistaken for a bluish shade with the right lighting.

Nyx is an affordable brand of makeup and these lip creams retail for $7 on their website. What a great price!

The coverage is awesome! It's not a product that you need to apply multiple times. Normally, one coat is enough. Maybe two coats if necessary but never more than that. It's very smooth and glides on perfectly! 

The lip creams are just that; creamy! After awhile they dry matte but they definitely don't dry out your lips! I did definitely have some product rub off later when i touched my mouth so that bothered me but not enough to be a problem.

One of my coworkers mistook Amethyst for Mac's Heroin. I don't think they are that close but they are somewhat similar.


Overall, I would most definitely recommend these to anyone! They are inexpensive and very pigmented.

Overall rating: 5/5
I would definitely buy these again!

Buy or Buh-bye! NYX Simply Red Lip Cream Review

Hey loves! I'm back with a new segment for you guys: Buy or Buh-bye!

About a month or so ago I purchased a Simply Red NYX lip cream from a higher end beauty supply store. I was originally going to get the Red Velvet butter gloss but once I swatched the lip cream, I was sold! The shade I have is SR 03. It's a bright candy apple/vixen red. Perfect shade if you're going for a sexy look. The coverage is perfect and the finish is creamy matte.



My biggest issue with this product is how easily it rubs off. By the end of the day, I had stains all over my fingers and my hands. My hoodie and shirt had stains all over it. I ended up just rubbing it off because I was so disappointed. I have worn it on multiple occasions and it happens every time. That is the only real issue that I have but that's enough to not make me buy it again.  I've seen some videos about how to stop that so I'm going to try some of those techniques and hopefully it'll work out.


I'm wearing it here as a part of my Halloween costume!


There is also a Simply Vamp and a Simply Nude line available.
    

Overall Score: 3/5*
Final Verdict: Buh-bye!

*I like to rate my makeup products. It makes it easier for me if I decide to purchase again. I rate based on coverage, texture, kiss tests, consistency and how long it lasts.
