Haul + Review: NYX Lip Products (Soft Matte Lipstick)

 
Hello peeps! Today I'm going to do a mini beauty haul on lips products. They are some of my latest beauty purchases- NYX Lip Products Haul. In this post, I included only Soft Matte Lipsticks. 
For Round Lipsticks and the Lacquer Pot I will be doing a separate post, click on the link.

First of all, it seems like everyone is craze about NYX's Matte lip products on YouTube or Beauty Blog. So I have convinced myself to buy a few colors to try out. 

Matte lipsticks can be very tricky. You may have problems such as clumps or it won't glide smoothly or color is uneven. 
I personally think that there are too little product in each tube.

They are not difficult to glide on. But from the above picture you can already see the clump on Hippie Chic.

I am very happy with Audrey. I would have to say out Audrey and Hippie Chic, my favorite is Audrey. The deeper color range such as Audrey is good and color is consistent on my lips. I believe because I have a tanned skin.

This is Matte Hippie Chic, a light, creamy nude-pink color. I find the Hippie Chic is not that flattering on me because it feels dry which is evident by the untoned lines in my lips and chappy lips. The color is not even too no matter how I apply it thin or thick. Nude/ pale range of color such as Hippie Chic color tends to dry out and patchy. I guess this nude/ pale color doesn't suit on my tanned skin. 
P/S: I applied a a thin layer of SKll Lipbalm just to avoid drying my lips out.  Pictures were taken right after I applied the lipstick. Can still see some shine but it appears more matte as it dries out.

There are more than 20 shades available for NYX's Soft Matte range. I made my order at Colours Cosmetics Malaysia for only RM25 each. Find them out! ^^


Pros:
- nice mild fruity smell of the lipstick.
- packaging is simple and ordinary and easy to store.
Cons:
- cannot be worn alone, I need to wear a thin layer of lipbalm before hand.
- textures are not always consistent. Deeper color generally good but nude/pale color tends to dry out and patchy.
- not lasting at all. but when removing it, it stains on lips.


What do you think of NYX's Soft Matte Lipsticks? 
Are they a deal breaker?

I am looking for comments and suggestions as always!
