NYX Round Lipstick Swatches in Circe, Sierra, Pumpkin Pie, Honey, & Twist.

Another round of NYX lipstick swatches.
I didn't exfoliate my lips & the application is messy, haha...sorry!
This is from my previous Cherryculture.com haul. Most of the colors are neutrals. I've been on the hunt for the perfect nude lip color, lol & I kind of failed here.

I guess Circe isn't a bad nude lip color but I think it's still a little too pale for me? Maybe I'm just not that into nudes...who knows... I think it's better paired with a light pink lipgloss :)

Well, enjoy!

NYX Sierra.


NYX Honey.
My least favorite! I think it's too pale for my skin tone.


NYX Pumpkin Pie.
My favorite out of the bunch! It's a pale pink color & is good for everyday lips!


NYX Twist.
I hate the frost :( I wish Cherryculture.com had better pictures of the color because they aren't the same online as in real life at ALL!


NYX Circe.



L-R: Circe, Sierra, Pumpkin Pie, Honey, & Twist.


xxoo.

Nail polish swatch: Essie in E-nuf is E-nuf



Gorgeous hot pink/coral color! I love this color for the summer :) I'm definitely going to paint my toes with this next! :)

This is my first Essie nail polish! They're pretty $$$ :/ What are you guys' favorite colors!? I was looking for French Affair but they sold out at Walmart :(

My first YouTube video :P


I decided to do swatches of all my NYX lippies today. I swear I'm missing some & I bet that they're in my mom's bathroom! Hahaha. She likes to come in my room & take my lipsticks.
Well, I made a simple slideshow video for YouTube because I got bored :) I hope you guys enjoy it!

Ugh, the stupid 'o' in 'Apollo' is cut off! I don't know why. I tried editing it but it just wouldn't show up for some reason :(

It's been a while since I've edited videos! I used to hate making commercials & openings for broadcast journalism in high school, lol. That was the class to finish all my homework in :P But I really do miss having Adobe to edit with instead of Windows Movie Maker! :(


Oh & for just regular swatches click here.

Wet & Wild lipstick swatches.

Wet & Wild Lipsticks!

I've never done these type of lipstick swatches, so I hope you guys enjoy. The peach fuzz on my bottom lip kind of creeps me out though, lmao. Don't stare too long, you may get creeped out as well :P

Quick review:
The lipsticks are definitely matte. They don't go on easily onto your lips at all. You most definitely need to apply a lot of lip balm before! They are not moisturizing whatsoever. They're very pigmented though--basically what you see is what you get! I wish they had more colors though, maybe it was just my Walgreens. I got mine for $2.99 plus they were BOGO. They're not bad at all especially for the price. The packaging really sucks. I already got some lipstick on my lipstick caps since they down wind down all the way. The plastic that surrounds the lipstick is also a pain in the butt to remove. Oh, & once you remove the plastic, you lose the name of the lipstick. All they have is the # name of it on the bottom, which kind of sucks.

But really, I still like my NYX lipsticks more! They're cheaper & there's a wider variety of colors. But, I would still repurchase these lipsticks if I needed to! :)

Overall: B+

Here is my bare lips. I think I got some foundation on them though because they really aren't THAT pale. Idk, my lips are weeeeeeeird =)


902C Bare It All.


903C Just Peachy.
I am in love with this color & have been wearing it for the last 2 days.


907C Mauve Outta Here.


901B Think Pink
Dupe for MAC Viva Glam Lady Gaga lipstick. I don't know about this light of a pink shade on my lips!


Just some normal swatches.
901B Think Pink, 902C Bare It All, 903C Just Peachy, & 907C Mauve Outta Here.


Okay, this came in super handy. I seriously couldn't open up any of the lipsticks without this razor! The plastic just really didn't want to come off I guess.


Swatch of the turquoise eyeliner just in case :) I forgot to swatch the Nutty eyeshadow, ehh.
