Brand Focus: NYX Cosmetics
NYX was a brand which I have been lusting over for quite some time as it was difficult to get hold of in the UK. However, I am now so happy they Selfridges and larger boots store now have these in stock! I managed to pick up a handful of product to try out and so far I have been impressed by them.

MY TOP 5 BOLD LIP PRODUCTS
MAC MATTE LIPSTICK - RUBYWOO
Perfect blue toned matte red lipstick I have found. This lipstick has a really good formulation which is comfortable on the lips and doesn't leave my lips cracked and dehydrated. I usually apply this with a lip brush to give a more defined and precise finish. It also makes my teeth look alot whiter. Full review and swatches can be found here.
TOPSHOP VELVET LIPS - VELVETEEN RIBBON
This is the newest addition to my stash of never ending lip products. Eversince I have found the Sleek lip cream, I have wanted a similar product but in a more deep red colour. This Topshop lip cream was a tad drying but I do like the colour of this and it's lasting power was very good. I was a bit shocked by the price of this as it does resemble the price of other higher end products and I was unaware until I reached the till. Although I was a bit unsure about the pricing of this, I was in love with the colour and overlooked the issue.
KIKO SMART LIP PENCIL - 710
This is a more daring and vampy shade that I tend to just wear on limited occasions. I love the deep plum colour of this but I am not brave enough yet to sport this during the day. The lip pencil itself was very inexpensive and it was a delight to use as the consistency of the product was very nice and made it such a breeze to define my lips. With this colour, it makes me look a bit more sophisticated and mature which is good on nights out.
SLEEK MATTE ME LIP CREAM - FANDANGO PURPLE
Long lasting lip product and compliments my skintone very well. I am always impressed by sleek products because they are high quality and the pricing is reasonable. This is a well pigmented lip cream which is very easy to apply and dries to a excellent matte finish. Full review and swatches can be found here
RIMMEL LASTING FINISH - KATE 107
Long standing favourite of mine within my big stash. Rimmel lipsticks always deserve a big thumbs up for me because they are just so nice to use and effortless to apply. I would say that this one is a bit less matte than the rest of the other lip products I have chosen, but it does have much more moisturising properties. This deep berry colour is so pretty on the lips and definitley goes well with most makeup looks and outfits. Great product for such a good price.
Are you a fan of dark lipsticks?
