I imagine that most makeup loving people are like me. That means having  a whole makeup bag just for lip products. In spite of having lip products to last years, we still buy more, right? I mean, we definitely have to have that lip gloss because those glitter pieces in the product are more rose gold tone while the one we have at home have more silver tone. Funny thing is, none of that matters because we still reach for our old favourites that we know won’t let us down. In this post I am going to introduce you to my five favourite lip products of the last few months.

NYX Lip Lingerie in the tone Exotic

It is a lip cream with a matte finish. It is also a food, drink, and kiss proof lip cream. I love those kind of lip products. I feel so much more carefree, and it is quite convenient throughout the day. I don’t have to worry if I need to reapply my lip cream everytime after eating.

The formula is soft and glides easily on the lips. It has quite a neutral, light scent.

As I said before, it lasts a good eight hours. I also wear Nyx waterproof lip liner under it to make it last even longer.

Since it is a matte formula, I suggest using a moisturising lip balm in the evening after wearing this. It doesn’t dry them out and feels light on the lips, but it will just look better if your lips are moisturised.

The tone Exotic is like dark taupe dustyrose. It is beautiful colour which suits perfectly with my natural complexion.

Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor in the tone 630HD Seduction.

It is a beautiful taupe shade which goes with almost every makeup look. In it’s taupe peachy colour it is also perfect for “naked” days when you don’t want to wear much makeup, but still want some colour on your face.

I have heard a lot of people saying it doesn’t dry matte. The trick with this lip colour is that you have to apply a light layer so it could dry out matte. If the layer of the product is too thick, it will stay wet.

The formula is soft and glides on easy. With the wider applicator you can cover lips and even the corners without a problem. For me the lip cream smells like caramel s’mores.

In spite of being a matte lip product, it doesn’t survive eating. So after eating it needs to be reapplied.

 

Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor in the tone 630HD Addiction

It is a deep berry shade which goes well with stronger makeup look.

Everything I said in the previous paragraph applies here also. The only difference between this and Seduction is in the tone.

NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in the tone Vancouver

This is a dark purple lip cream which dries matte. It is definitely not an everyday tone to wear to school or work. Even for me it is bit too much to wear in formal settings.

I have been wearing it when I go out in Morticia style. That means all black, except for skin, which stays white.

The formula is soft and glides on easy. With the doe foot applicator you have full control, which is good with this product. This formula dries fast, so if you miss a lip, you better clean it off right at that second. If you don’t you will look like your lip cream has smudged.

Unfortunately, this is not eating-kissing proof, so be mindful.

 

NYX Ombre Lip Duo in the tone Cinnamon & Spice

This is basically two lip pencils in a close tone but different size. The formula itself is dry, like lip pencils usually are. The feeling on lips is also dry. It is like you are not wearing anything. I can look past it because of how it looks on my lips. You can use one or another or you can create ombre lips.

Application is easy since you basically use pencil to draw your lips. Full control let’s you decide how ombre you want the ending result to be. From experience I can say that it is better if you have a lip brush too. With the brush it is easier to blend tones together.

I usually do ombre lip with bit of cinnamon and more of spice. I just love redder tones more.

Again, it is not a eating proof lip product.
