Nyx Lip Lingerie Matte Liquid Lipstick in Bedtime Flirt Review

I’ve tried a few Liquid Lipsticks ranging from the soft lip creams to the more powdery traditional liquid lipsticks. As a concept, I like liquid lipsticks, they apply easier and they tend to last a lot longer however, with so many liquid lipsticks now on the market, the competition is tough as as beauty consumers I feel that we all expect a lot from the products that we try. When the Nyx Lip Lingerie’s first came out they had mixed reviews and I was personally put off by how the shades were mainly brown toned nudes. My lovely sister gave me this one to try and so this past week I’ve given it a go and formulated an opinion, here it is.

I do like the packaging, the clear tube makes it easy to detect the shade though the shades appear slightly different on the skin. I like the font used for the word lingerie, it looks quite elegant and definitely ties in with the theme. Other than that there’s not lots to say, these retail for £7.00 each which is slightly more than the famed Soft Matte Lip Cream but you do get more product.

The Nyx Lip Lingerie’s are described as follows on the Boots website:
Slip into something seductive with Lip Lingerie, our new weightless liquid lipstick with a plush matte finish. Available in a range of colour-kissed nudes from cinnamon pink and chocolate brown, to warm mahogany red and classic nude beige each sultry shade will coat the curves of your lips with irresistibly creamy colour.”

The shade Bedtime Flirt is probably not one I’d usually go for however, it is a pretty shade. It’s a peachy nude with earth undertones so a very appropriate shade for daywear. As you can see from the swatch above, this does fully dry down to a flat matte finish.

The brush is definitely one of a traditional liquid lipstick. It’s a large doe foot applicator that curves slightly to hug the lips. Personally, I find this to be unnecessarily large and the lack of a pointed tip makes precision harder but that’s just me. It does make the bottom lip quick and easy to fill in as a positive.

The formula is where this all starts to go downhill. This is a very liquidy product which reminds me a lot of the LA Splash Mousse Tint which I didn’t really like. It’s liquidy but then dries down very quickly and feels quite heavy and almost cakey on the lips. The first layer is very uneven so you need at least a second coat however, it dries patchy and it also dries down leaving the lips feeling very tight and emphasising every last line in your lips.

The finish is okay, it is a matte finish but it close up it makes the lips look very textured and like yiu have a lot of lines in your lips. I also found it didn’t last too long, within a few hours it was fading in a very patchy fashion but when you top it up it feels cakier and cakier on the lips. I also had the problem with this fading at the centre of my lips in a very patchy way.

Overall, I didn’t like this. There’s so many fantastic matte lip products on the market that I don’t feel that there’s room for products like this that make your mouth look all puckered and bumhole like. I found this uncomfortable to wear and very unflattering as well. I exfoliated my lips prior to this but still found it made my lips look very dry and wrinkled. Personally I wouldn’t recommend or purchase this myself, sorry NYX but compared to the Soft Matte Lip Creams this is a dud product in my opinion.

The Nyx Lip Lingerie Liquid Lipsticks are available from Boots for £7.00.
