NYX Soft Matte Lip Creams PART 1: Addis Ababa & Antwerp

"Goodbye glossy lips, hello matte lips!" NYX soft matte lip creams are my new fave lippies! I was excited when NYX released a budget friendly, matte lip colors. Ever since I got these in the mail, I've been wearing them everytime I go out. They come in a lip gloss-like tube with doe foot applicators which make them easier to apply than matte lipsticks which usually drag your lips when you apply straight from the lipstick tube.

L-R: Antwerp, Addis Ababa, Milan, Sao Paolo ($4.99 each at Beauty Joint)

These 2 are my most fav colors among the lip creams. The only thing I don't like about these lip creams, is that it is a bit drying. You should always wear lip balm first, wait for at least 5 mins, and blot the excess, then apply the lip color. If you just wear them without exfoliating or moisturizing, the cracks and dryness will become very noticeable and it doesn't look pretty! Another bad thing about this product is the staying power. I don't mind having more touch ups tho and for the price, I think it's pretty worth it!

  1. Addis Ababa looks much better on you, though both colors still compliment you very well. Thanks for sharing!
