The NYX Lip Lingerie ($7) line is a collection of 12 matte liquid lipsticks in a range of neutral colors. I recently picked up the color Lace Detail, a nude color with just a touch of pink.
The formula is very creamy and has a whipped mousse like texture. The color goes on smoothly and gives opaque coverage in one swipe.
These liquid lipsticks dry down to a very matte finish so they can feel really drying on the lips. You’ll want to start with a lip balm before application.
The one thing I didn’t like about Lace Detail is that it accentuated the lines in my lips more than I would like. This is the only Lip Lingerie color I own so I’m not sure if this occurs with just this color or the entire line.
Overall I did like this lippie. The color has just enough pink in it for my fair skin. It isn’t terribly pale so it doesn’t make me look dead.
If you’re ok with dry liquid lipstick formulas, this is a good budget option for you. But if you have lots of fine lines in your lips, you may want to steer clear.
