Swatches: NYX Lipsticks & Lip Glosses

Twenty-one NYX lipstick (updated to 28) and five lipgloss (updated to 8) swatches are finally done. Whew! These mostly consist of their round lipsticks while the last two are their Diamond Sparkle lipsticks, which are more sheer and glittery as compared to the creamy and pigmented round lipsticks. Most of these were ordered when I was trying to find the perfect nude lippie to neutralize my lips and based on the awful swatches on Cherry Culture, I have a few dark, ugly brown ones. Don't get Hermes, Iced Latte, Stone or Uranus unless that's what you're looking for. You can also purchase these at Non Pareil Boutique (much better swatches) or at NYX Cosmetics (steep prices).

My faves are: Rea, Cream, Iris, Honey, Thalia, Frosted Beige (actually a pink lipstick), Perfect, Chambord, Dusty Rose, Sparkling Velvet & Natural, Smokey Look, and Lollipop Glosses.

Hope this helps! =)

*UPDATE*
I have compiled all my NYX lip product swatches in this post, so as of June 19, 2009, this is my whole collection - 28 lipsticks and 8 lipglosses.

Carolyn New York Nailpolish


Darn! I wish I had waited a few days then I would have gotten 50% off with the extra free shipping but I guess it's ok. I ordered Hangin' On The Stoop, a true mid-tone grey and Eastside Brownstone, a fawn brown. I'll do some swatches and a review when I receive them... I also acquired some China Glaze nail polishes (yup, I lemminged) so I'll also do swatches and a review.

*UPDATE* The special is being extended until January 10th and you also get a free base coat and top coat with each order. Make sure you use the code "happynewyear."

Sorry for the little hiatus but I'm back for the new year! Happy Belated New Year!!! =)
