I recently did a NYX Cosmetics haul thanks to the fabulous team at Social Goodies! There was a hiccup when placing my order with my promo code on NYXcosmetics.com but Social Goodies and NYX worked together to fix it pronto, the same day actually. You can read about that in my post “A Social Goodies Experience | NYX Haul“. I snagged a few NYX Round Lipsticks, NYX Matte Lip Creams and NYX Xtreme Lip Creams as well as NYX Highlight & Contour Powder and YX Mosaic Powder blush in Love. Keep in mind that the items selected would cost at least $50 directly from NYX but would cost $25 if purchased through a Social Goodies deal and 20% of that would go to charity!
Today, I have 2 quick swatches (on lips) of NYX Xtreme Lip Cream in Bonfire and Buttery Nude. I really love the shades selected and the consistency of these lip creams. I am new to the lip color world as lipstick has never been a love of mine. Fortunately these do not feel like lipstick or gloss so I highly prefer them over the other lipsticks I have tried. They also last several hours for me, do not dry out my lips and are build-able colors.
[quoteicon author=”NYX”]It’s not lipstick, nor is it gloss. It’s like nothing you’ve experienced before. It’s liquid lipstick that goes on with full Xtreme color and intense shine.[/quoteicon]
I really love the shade Bonfire, the color is build-able and has a nice shine to it. I forgot which lip liner brand I used but the color was Rose. I somehow goofed up and deleted or lost the swatch for Buttery Nude but luckily I do have a profile photo in which I used it. So here you go!
I will try to update ASAP with a close up swatch of Buttery Nude. It’s the first nude lippie I’ve found that looks fabulous with my skin tone! I love it! Anywho, stay tuned for swatches from the rest of my NYX order. I hope to get them posted over the weekend! In the meantime, be sure to check out SocialGoodies.com and follow them on Twitter @socialgoodiesco!

These are great colors. Looks like we have similar skin tones and I would love to try these especially the Buttery Nude.

@glammgirl2 I love them, I've been wearing them a lot! I use Buttery Nude pretty much every day and switch to Bonfire when I want color. I'm thinking about grabbing a few more shades 🙂
grt haul NYX Xtreme Lip Cream | Buttery Nude looks great will wait for more swatches
Both colors are awesome – but that buttery nude looks great on you.
I love the buttery nude!

Buttery Nude seems to be a big hit of these 2 swatches! It's my fave, I've been using it so much. It's just perfect for day or night!

@FreeNClearStuff Thank you! It is definitely my favorite!
Gorgeous! They both look great. Lucky you able to pull off such a pretty pink, pink looks horible on me! How much are these?

Thank you! Honestly I was reluctant about Bonfire but figured it's free so why not try something out of the comfort box! I was shocked that I really liked it, I get many compliments wearing it. I think they retail around $6 or $7, I think that's the typical NYX price for lip items. I'll check nyxcosmetics.com though.
I like both on you, but the nude looks best – think I'd choose that one!
You are sooo beautiful 🙂 Both colors look amazing!!

Buttery Nude is my fave but I really like Bonfire as well. It is great when I want some color but it's not too over the top! Thank you, I'm highly considering that! Start posting photos of my looks, a FOTD here & there. 🙂
Both lip creams look lovely on you! Particularly the nude lip cream, which compliments your skin tone perfectly!
Didn't realise how pretty you were! I like buttery nude but I think bonfire suits you more!
Great review! I want to try these now 🙂
