Tanya Kara: NYX Matte Lipstick Review

If you follow me on Instagram you know that I've been super excited to try and review this NYX Matte Lipstick from Target. Well...I gave it a try and I'm excited to tell you guys all about it!

If you are looking for an economical, fun new lipstick, this is for you. I purchased this NYX Matte Lipstick from Target for only $4.99 and I'm really happy with it.

Now there is a little bit of a downside to this product. First, it doesn't last for more than 1 1/2-2 hours so if you are looking for something long-lasting, that you don't have to re-apply much, I don't recommend this, but if you are looking for a fun, economical, vibrant color this is for you.

This is a fun lipstick to wear while running errands, or maybe meeting a friend for a lunch date or coffee date, but definitely not if you are working all day and don't have time to re-apply.

But I figure for 5 dollars, it's worth the cuteness right?!

Another downside to the NYX Matte Lipstick is that it does look a little chalky. Don't get me wrong, the color comes out REALLY vibrant so the color is great, but I would not wear it alone.

I paired my NYX Matte Lipstick with this clear City Lips Advanced Formula Lip Plumper (which can be found here). Not only does the Lip Plumer add some shine to the lipstick, taking away the chalky look, but it also plumps up my lips giving my lips a beautiful, full pout :)

Let me tell you, I am so hooked on City Cosmetic's City Lips Plumper. It is one of my favorite everyday products for sure! If you are looking for a good lip plumper I HIGHLY suggest checking out www.citycosmetics.com to read more about this phenomenal product. It is the hottest craze right now!
