NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Antwerp

Purchased By Me
A while back I purchased a few NYX Soft Matte Lip Creams. I was lucky enough to get them while they were on sale (buy one get one 40% off I believe). That’s always the best time to try new things, isn’t it?
The first shade I’m going to be talking about is Antwerp. Antwerp is described as a mid-tone yellow-toned pink. It applied rather streaky, but once I smoothed it all out it was just fine. The applicator was soft and fairly easy to work with. It was surprisingly comfortable and didn’t feel drying at all. It was so lightweight! I seriously felt like I had nothing on! I was more surprised about how long it lasted. It lasted all day long and only got a little patchy after eating. But for the most part the color was still going strong at the end of the day!
This is a great lipstick! I love the color! I love the feel of it! I also love that I can pick these up any time I’m roaming around Target while the guys are hanging out in the electronics department. You better believe I’ll be adding more shades to my collection.
Regardless how many matte lip products that I try, I always go back to NYX Matte Lip Cream which by far I love best. I have this shade and it’s actually one of my favourite to wear.

I have yet to try my first NYX product, but these have been on my radar for quite some time now.

I have a few NYX items and really like them all. I want to try some of the newer lip colors though. They are so pretty!
That’s a great shade! It looks really nice on you too. I wish tones like that looked good on my skin tone. I really like the NYX formula on these, though. I need to get some more. :)

Thank you, Paula! :) I agree! They’re pretty awesome! I really want to try some of the newer shades.
The only one of these that I’ve tried is London (or am I confusing the formulas?). Anyway, I didn’t like it at all – but I think it was a shade issue. It was way too nude for me. :-) Looking forward to your review of the other shades.

Yeah that’s the same formula. Too bad you didn’t like it. It can be tricky finding the perfect nude. Well, for me anyway. I’m really digging Antwerp though.
I have one of these (Sao Paulo), but I never wear it because it’s a little darker than I want, although it’s kind of perfect for fall. I have a feeling I’d like Antwerp better. I quite like the formula, so I should get myself to Ulta.

Oh that’s a pretty one! I think Antwerp is definitely more wearable though. I was really surprised at how much I liked it too.
I have one of those Matte Lip Cream and recently rediscovered it in my stash (yeah things can get lost in there :/). I was also surprised at how comfortable it felt for a matte liquid lipstick! I think they’re a fantastic value and I want more too now. This Antwerp is my kind of color!

Thank you! Yes, my NYX wishlist is growing a bit now too. :)
Thanks so much, I heard so many mixed reviews about this I had no idea what to think. Once August is over I might have to get one. <3 Antwerp is so gorgeous on you, just perfect.
I guess some are hit or miss? But I really did like this and even took it with me while on vacation so that’s saying a lot. Thank you, Zovesta! <3 :)
