I had heard so many great things about the NYX Butter Glosses that when NYX came to Ireland, I knew I had to try them.
The reviews weren't wrong, these are a game changer in the lipgloss world.
I currently have four Butter Glosses (two courtesy of Danielle) and I love all of them.
Every gloss sits comfortably on the lips, it almost feels like they sink in and you don't notice them anymore.
They all smell very sweet but not sickly, I can't stand sickly sweet smells on lip products but these don't bother me.
I couldn't take pictures of them on my lips as they're in a total state from being sick for the past two weeks with the sinus infection that just won't quit but I did swatch them on my hand.
Vanilla Cream Pie
This is a light pink, perfect for everyday wear kind of shade.
Creme Brulee
This is a more nude shade than Vanilla Cream Pie but it's still slightly pinky. It's very flattering if you're wearing bold eye makeup.
Devil's Food Cake
This is my favourite of the four. It's a dark berry purple that can be sheered out or built up. It's perfect if you don't want the commitment of a bold lipstick.
Red Velvet
This is a bright red shade and can be built up or sheered out like Devil's Food Cake. It actually looks a lot lighter on me than I expected but it's still gorgeous.
Overall, I'm very impressed with these little guys.
If you want to try wearing lipgloss but you really aren't feeling the sticky mess situation, you should give these a try.
They're around €7 so they aren't really cheap as far as lipgloss goes but I do plan on buying some more.
Let me know if you've tried these and if you're a fan. Do you love or hate lipgloss?
Thanks for reading! :) ♥
I couldn't find NYX in Dublin was so disappointed as it's not really available here in the UK either and I know you can order online but I much prefer to swatch the products first. Love the shades you picked up, just stunning x

Oh no that must have been so disappointing! They're stocked in some weird places around Ireland, the fact that our town has it is shocking to me!! I hope they head to the UK soon. I agree, I'd much rather give the product a swatch rather than buying online. xxxx
DeleteI'm a big fan of the Butter glosses! I love the lighter shades but have to say the bolder shades are stunning on you when I saw them :) xx
ReplyDeleteAwh thank you! You know me well with my dark lips :P xxxx
DeleteWow, quite impressed by the sound of these.
ReplyDeleteWill certainly look at giving them a go as not a gloss fan either
