NYX Round Lipstick Haul

I've seen a lot of posts about the NYX Round Lipsticks because they are cheap and there are a lot of colors available!

The colors I got are: Power, Thalia, Tea Rose, Circe and Paris. Here are some pictures of the lipsticks.





Power is a very pale pink, kind of a lavander color which I adore. It's almost the same shade as the Viva Glam Gaga lipstick and also my The Face Shop Semi-Matte lipstick. This is a totally wearable color which I can mix with other colors.


Next is Thalia. It's kind of a dark rose color which I think is too dark and makes me look old. Sorry. I don't like this and I won't probably use this one except if I wear it with another color.

And then, there's Paris. Its not as pale as Power, actually a few shades brighter and it has that moisturizing effect which I like.

Tea Rose is like Paris but with a hint of coral. It's nice, very wearable like Paris.



And lastly, there's Circe which is the only nude lipstick I bought. It's a natural nude color and it does wash you out but after a while, it blends with my natural lip color and makes it really nice. It's actually pigmented that it covers the color of my lips. It means that it's not sheer like other nude lipsticks. I love this one!

Skin swatches
Verdict: I've always loved NYX Round Lipsticks! They're all very moisturizing and the colors are great!

I got 3 lipsticks before and this is my second NYX haul. When I have the money, I'd probably get some more! :)

NYX Round Lipsticks Swatches

So I finally gave in to the NYX Round Lipsticks. I got Fig, Femme and Spellbound. I got my loot from GetSophisticated. Compared to other suppliers, as of this week, she has the most stock of colors although the nudes are already out of stock. I think she'll have new stocks by mid-August. Anyway, here are the swatches and some pictures:

Femme on my lips
Fig on my lips
Spell Bound on my lips

So far, my favorite is Fig. It's definitely MLBB. I could use this everyday, not get tired of the color and also not be too attention grabbing. I can't wait for my next NYX haul! Most probably next week I'll get three more!

Pros
  • Creamiest lipstick I've tried, even creamier than MAC!
  • Cheap, cheap, cheap
  • Even though it's cheap, it can deliver!
  • So many colors to choose from!
  • Moisturizing, no doubt. It doesn't dry my lips compared to the Revlon ColorBurst
  • In a way, it's hard to take out
Cons
  • It doesn't stay that long on my lips
  • Not available in the Philippines
Overall, I will definitely buy more colors! I can't wait.

What do you think?
