A year before I started writing this blog all the lipsticks
I had in my kitty were shades of brown. Till about recently I never had the
guts to buy a pink lipstick, forget about putting it on me. I never understood
the fascination for pink lipsticks. However since the day I became a crazy
makeup fanatic and started exploring blogs by some amazing people like Rashmi,
Samyukta, Anamika and Cynthia, I have started buying more colorful lip sticks.
Of course I will never be adventurous enough to buy a black or dark purple
lipstick but this is a start at least. I love Nyx round lipsticks. They are
soft , creamy, extremely moisturizing and have excellent colors at a reasonable
price. In short they are a boon for people like me who want to experiment with
colors but are unwilling to dish out a fortune a lipstick that they will never
use.
Nyx lipstick in Fire is a beautiful deep pink red shade. The
shade just instantly brightens your face and adds a touch of drama which I
love. I have been hunting for this shade since I saw Mac Fusion Pink which is
again a gorgeous red pink but one which I was unable to buy (It’s a LE pro
lipstick). The best part is that it is completely opaque and thus great for my
pigmented lips. I love it on my lips and am sure this is going to be my new
party lipstick J


Ok, now this lipstick is not a Mac lipstick and should not
be compared to one. Yes, it is creamy, soft and glides on like a dream on my
chapped lips but then it has a few cons as well. Firstly it transfers and
transfers to just about everything around you. Moreover it has a negligible
staying power of just around two hours. However I don’t really mind that the
texture and pigmentation is extremely good and what more can you expect for
around three hundred bucks. Thankfully it does not smell extremely weird. It
just a slight waxy smell which is ok.

You can buy it from Cherry Culture or just order it from
Stylecraze which incidentally is running a 25% off sale on Nyx products and
this lippi is on the list as well.
