NYX ROUNDED LIPSTICK REVIEW/SWATCHES

After seeing so many awesome reviews on these lipsticks, I knew I had to try a few out. Apparently, these lipsticks are a top selling product for NYX. I mean, how can you go wrong with a lipstick that is $2.99? I bought Chic Red, Tea Rose, and Fig from www.cherryculture.com. These lipsticks are also available at Ulta for $3.99 each.

As you can see from the swatches, Tea Rose and Fig are extremely similar. I didn't realize how similar they were until I actually swatched them to be honest! Fig is a deeper mauve color while Tea Rose is a softer peachy mauve. My favorite of the three is definitely Tea Rose. I think it's the most wearable and works best for someone with a ghostly complexion (such as myself lol).

Chic Red is an IN YOUR FACE bright true to form shade of red. I'm not sure what I was thinking when I ordered it online except that I wanted to go outside my comfort zone. I don't see myself wearing it very often but it's definitely pretty. It kind of reminds me SLIGHTLY of Mac's Ruby Woo. I don't think this picture does it justice.

Fig is a pretty mauve color that I think is perfect for the Fall/Winter time. I don't think there's anything special about this color honestly. It reminds me of honey for some reason. I'm not sure why! lol.

Tea Rose is apparently one of the most popular NYX round stick colors. It's probably my favorite out of the three. It's so similar to Fig yet I feel like it's just a prettier color. It's softer and looks great on fair skin, in my opinion.

Although I'm not completely happy with the three colors I chose (FYI- ordering lipstick online is probably not the best idea. There are HORRIBLE swatches for these lipsticks which don't show their true colors) I think the quality of these lipsticks are great for the price. They glide on like BUTTER. They aren't drying in the slightest which is great because my lips are so chapped right now thanks to beautiful Winter! I can see myself purchasing more in the future for sure.

No make up (Sorry!) This is what Tea Rose looks like on me. :)
