NYX Round Lipstick in Margarita Review

NYX Round Lipstick in Margarita Review
NYX Round Lipstick in Margarita
Hello ladies. Oh yes, I finally decided to put up a new post. I wanted to take some time off from blogging after my exams ended and enjoy some free time aka lazy time haha. But today I wanted to talk to you about one of my current go-to lipsticks, NYX Margarita from their round lipstick line. From the shades that I've tried I have to admit that I really like the round lipsticks although they are not very long lasting.

Margarita is a coral-y pink shade with gold shimmer. It has a frost finish and it's very creamy. The application is quite even but if you have dry lips I think this won't look that great on you if you don't exfoliate them first. Now the longevity is ok. It will stay on for about 2 hours and then will start kinda gathering in the inner part of your lips which can be slightly annoying but it stains your lips so they will still have some color on. It, also, will make you lips feel a bit dry after some time but it doesn't actually dry out your lips.

The packing of NYX round lipsticks is something I really like. Although it's nothing fancy, I really appreciate the fact that you can tell the actual color of the lipstick on the bottom part which is really handy for storage.

One thing that does kinda annoy me is that the round lipsticks will easily start to melt if it's hot in the area that you store them; personally I have to keep them in fridge to prevent that. Although there are couple cons with this lipstick I really like the color and will definitely keep using it. There are many places that you can buy it from but I got mine from ebay from this seller and although the shipping cost is a bit pricey they have great custom service.
What do you think of this lipstick? Let me know in the comments below!

NYX Tea Rose Lipstick Review

Hello ladies. Today's post is a review of the NYX round lipstick in Tea Rose. This lipstick is one of my latest purchases which I did after my spending ban ended. By the way, I will do a haul post and video once I receive everything that I ordered online but I'm still missing couple items and it's really annoying because it's been a long time since I bought them.

Anyways, Tea Rose is one the shades that I wanted to get for very long time but every time I wanted to buy something online it was sold out and since there aren't any NYX stores in Athens I had to wait. I finally found it on ebay - I don't think I will buy from the same seller again because 1 item is missing from my order and I still haven't received it - and I'm glad that I bought this shade. To be honest it is slightly darker than I thought it would be but I still love it.

Tea Rose is a cool-toned medium pink color with satin finish. It is very opaque, which something I like, but you can get sheerer coverage if you apply it with lip brush or if you dab it on. When you are applying it, it feels rather creamy and maybe even a bit slippery but after couple minutes it settles and it feels almost like a matte lipstick. That being said, after around 2 hours it felt kinda drying on my lips but it wasn't uncomfortable to wear. Now, the wear time is ok ,around 3 maybe 4 hours. Also, I wanted to mention that it has rose-y smell which you will definitely notice while applying but ,thankfully for me, it disappears after you applied it. 

As for packaging, it's the typical round black plastic that all the NYX round lipsticks have, with the lipstick name of the top and color sample at the bottom. At this point may I just say that I love when you can see the actual lipstick color at bottom because it's really handy for storage since you don't have to neither memorize each name nor open every time the lipstick to find out if it's the right color.

 Although the lipstick is a bit drying on my lips and wear time isn't super amazing I still don't regret buying this baby and it is definitely one of my favorite lipsticks.

You get 0.14oz (4g) of product for around $4 depending on where buying it from.
