NYX Matte Lipstick Swatches + Review


Target Canada is one of the few places that I can find NYX products...and they are going out of business :(.

So on my latest trip (I go at least once a week) I picked up a few of the Matte Lipsticks to test out, and I got them for 30% off! The selection was limited, but I hope to go back and dig around for some more products - there were bins of already marked down products just calling my name. 



The shades I picked up are:
 Shocking Pink, Strawberry Daiquiri, Nude and Forbidden.

 Shocking Pink


 Strawberry Daiquiri



Nude

Forbidden

My favourite shade that I picked up was likely Shocking Pink, just because it is so bright and full of life. But it also had the best result. For a more wearable shade I would choose Strawberry Daiquiri, I really like how neutral it is. As for the lighter shades Nude and Forbidden - I am going to have to play around with these and hope that Spring will be here soon so I can no longer be a ghost. Im sure once I get some sun I will be able to try them out again and not look so washed out :)

Review:

Application: Smooth application, glides on nicely and relatively opaque. 8/10
Texture: Smooth. 8/10
Colour Pay off: 8/10 
Packaging: I like the matte black tube with the little window that shows you what colour you are choosing. 10/10
Longevity: pretty good for a lipstick! 8/10
