"It is not lipstick nor it is gloss. It's like nothing you've experienced before. It's lipstick cream that goes on silky but looks soft matte."
Hey ladies! I know a lot of reviews about NYX SMLC are up already but I still wanted to make my own review of it. This post is long overdue, I was supposed to put this up last July but I was to busy to do so. Now here it is!
NYX SMLC in Addis Ababa
NYX SMLC in London
Swatches!
NYX Addis Ababa is very famous. Need I say more? It's a very pretty shade of pink. Looking for the perfect hot pink that is matte, long wearing and feels light on the lips? Then this is for you! I love how this shade can complement all skin tones. It's not the shade of pink that is overwhelming. I think anyone can wear this! I fell in love with this lip cream the moment I tried it on my Birthday Look. Addis Ababa has tiny blue flecks/shimmers when dried.
NYX London is a nude brown that is not overly pale. It is the kind of nude that you can wear without looking washed out. Perfect for smokey eyes!
Lip swatches:
When worn:
What I like:
- Matte finish: I love how it dries off matte.
- Formulation is perfect! Some find it a bit drying though. But I don't!
- Scent. It has a sweet vanilla scent which I find so good. I love love love it!
- Packaging. Simple but doesn't look cheap at all.
- Affordable. The product is worth your every cent.
- Good color payoff especially Addis Ababa.
- Can last up to 5 hours without eating.
- It is available in different shades. I'm planning to get Sao Paulo next!
- Lightweight. I love how it feels on my lips. Extremely light on the lips unlike other lip products which feel heavy upon application
What I don't like:
- Not available in local malls
Rating:
10/10
I believe that NYX Soft Matte Lip Creams deserve all the raves that they're getting. It's a product worth trying out. I love it to bits!
Where to get:
Chic Cosmetics Manila or Girl Shoppe, Trinoma. Other online shops have it too.
Gusto ko both shades! LAm mo ba sis gustong gusto ko talaga tong nyx lip creams. pero dahil kuripot ako namamahalan ako sa kanila. hehe Love the shades you have. Kailangan ko na ng nude shade!
ReplyDeleteSis! Buy ka na! I can assure that you won't regret it especially Addis Ababa!!! Hehehe tuwang tuwa talaga ko sa lip creams na to :D If you want a nice nude shade, try Skin ng Ever Bilena. Heard they're good :D
DeleteAddis Ababa looks great on you! I'll check out the online store. thanks for sharing!

Thank you so much! Yes, you should! Chic Cosmetics Manila sells items at comparatively lower prices!
DeleteI do have NYX SMLC in Antwerp. You should try the shade! Sobrang okay siya, and I think it'll fit your skin tone. It's like a nude-ish coral color. Also like Ms. Jenny, I find it a bit expensive. :P
ReplyDeleteOne good thing I discovered about these lippies is they're available at Trinoma! <3
Addis Abba looks sooo hot. Would love to buy that. :)
Actually I had a hard time choosing between Antwerp and London! I'm into coral shades kasi. Eh since I couldn't find nice lip swatches of Antwerp, I opted for London. Safer choice!
DeleteI'll include Antwerp in my to buy list! Do you have a review of Antwerp?
Yes they are! But they're always out of stock. Yung shades lang na natitira dun puro Nude. GO check out Chic Cosmetics. Dami syang on hand. And she's from QC too. :))
Thanks for dropping by my blog!
I tried this one and it was very drying! :'( I had to moisturize my lips a lot so it didnt look ugly flaky! :(
ReplyDeleteIm glad this worked for you though!!

PS - followed you! Will be having a NARS giveaway!Do follow to be tuned in to that :)
Hi Shari! Thanks for dropping by my blog! :)
DeleteFollowed you back. Wow! I will wait for that! :D
Both colors look great on you. I read other reviews that people don't like it because it's dry so that's why I never tried them.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yes, I've read some reviews about how drying NYX SMLC can be. But I don't find them drying at all!
Deletehey!!
ReplyDeletegreat review :) love the full face shots - you're very pretty! i've always wanted to try these but haven't yet so i like reading reviews on them. both colors look amazing on you. the pink one is very pretty but i think it might be a bit too bold for me.
Thanks Helen! You should go try. Please let me hear what you think about them. Thank you so much for your compliments. I really appreciate it! I think NYX Addis Ababa would look great to everyone!
Deletelove the shades! and i think addis ababa is one of the bestsellers! haven't tried any lip cream from nyx though :) i think they're better than excel paris lip creams :)

Yes and I think it deserves all the raves it's getting. Yes indeed! Waaaaaaaaaaaay better than excel lip creams!

I've been wanting to try this; but I'm quite scared that it might dry up my lips. xD
ReplyDeleteMaybe using a lip balm prior to application might help! Let me know once you try this out :)
DeleteAddis Ababa looks gorgeous on you! I haven't tried this one from NYX, but they sure look interesting!
