My FOTDs

Nyx Swatches~!

Didn't think I'll be posting here anymore but here I am~! Ta Dahh~ haha..


Tea Rose: An all time favourite for me~ Just the right shade of rose without going too reddish or over the top~ A very natural matte color for an everyday look~ :)

Fig: Much brighter compared to Tea Rose~ Slightly more reddish and more vibrant than tea rose~ Its a matte shade also.. I don't usually apply it onto my lips like how i usually apply lipsticks~ With this I just dab it on to get just the right hint of color~ n top it off with a gloss. (Not a big fan of super bright colors.. :P)

Vitamin: Looks very orangey from the tube, but applies on kinda sheer and very frosty~ Haven't really used this alot but it wud be nice to give u a healthy look (since its called Vitamin~ :)

Sky Pink: Very frosty and theres just a slight hint of pink. I dont use this color alone. I normally top it up with a darker shaded gloss to avoid looking like a corpse~ HAHA.. this color just washes me out but i do love the shimmering pink~ n hence the darker gloss combination.. heh

Christie: Very nice name for a lippie but once again this color washes me out on its own but its a shade darker than sky pink and frosty too~ i like mixing this with other lippies or glosses to make it darker but still have the frosty look.. :)

Pumpkin: This is a shade that took me a long time to decide to order it~ It looks like orangey brown from the tube but it really is a nice nude shade for me~ the color is not very opaque and gives a slight sheen.. has a slightly pink undertone to it and for me, its a shade that i'm not scared to wear~ (am actually very scared of nude colors, esp those that make u look like u have no lips! )


Sparkling Salmon(Diamond Sparkle Lipsticks): This is diff from the round lipsticks and priced a little higher i think. It looks very nice in the tube, a nice salmon color but it is WAY too Sparkly! Its so frosty, I cant actually c the csalmon color on my hand.. juz frost~ :P I believe it'll look better if mixed with another lippie~

Strawberry(Round Lipgloss): Pink gloss with slight shimmers in it. Goes on sheer and the formula is a tad watery for my liking. I actually prefer sticky glosses as they stay on much longer~ and the smell is eww~ very plasticky smell but once u get past that, its still a nice color~ :P

Sparkle(Round Lipgloss): Pale pink gloss with LOADS of shimmers... the shimmers are kinda fine but it makes the gloss very very frosty~ not my fav and once again.. The SMELL :(

Soft Fuschia(Jumbo Lip Pencil): Initially i thought id would come out as a light magenta or a purplish pink due to its name but this is a mauve pink~ a shade darker than tea rose. Also another very natural shade. Only set back for me is u have to sharpen it~ I thought it was those twist type so i tried twisting the bottom. The bottom came out. HAHA~ my stupidity~ :P

So anyway~ these are the swatches and my reviews! Will do another swatch and review when i can locate the missing Nyx Lippies~! :)
