My friend actually introduced me to nyx cosmetics, and I'm obsessed with lipstick so I saw the round lipsticks and thought I'd try them. When I first put it on, I thought it was very creamy and smooth, good pigments. As the day went on, I saw it stayed on very well, and didn't really smudge, or feather. This lipstick is amazing, and it actually moisturized my lips when I tried it. I. Love. This. Lipstick.
NYX Round Lipstick in Jupiter is a shimmery light pink. This was my first Round Lipstick. I purchased it at Ulta for $3.99. NYX Round Lipsticks are hypoallergenic and cruelty free and is available in 144 shades. Round Lipsticks have cute packaging. The tube is smaller than your average lipstick and you get .14 oz of product. Obviously, the tube is round. Made of black, sturdy feeling plastic, this lipstick is very purse and pocket friendly. Each lipstick is labeled on the top of the cap, and the bottom is clear plastic, making the shade easily visible. NYX was definitely trying to be storage friendly. I really like the NYX logo. It's cute and girly without being childish and over the top. It's quite simple actually Jupiter is a light, frosty, blue leaning pink. The kind of color that doesn't suit everyone. In fact, it caters to very light skin tones like mine. Like the packaging, the color is simple, yet girly and fun. Not overly pink, not overly frosty, but still a playful color. It definitely has a sheen to it, but nothing extreme. The coverage of this lipstick is moderate. I can still see a hint of my natural color, which is quite pigmented, peeking through from underneath. This lipstick has a slightly floral smell and taste, but it's pretty faint and doesn't really bother me. I never even noticed it til I smelled and tasted it for review. Application is average. It takes me two swipes to get good coverage. Jupiter isn't particularly moisturizing, but isn't dry either. The type of lipstick that needs a gloss over it, but not chapstick underneath. This lipstick doesn't bleed or migrate, but can transfer easily. Wear time for Jupiter is only ok. About 2 hours before I need to reapply. Less if I eat or drink, because of how easily it transfers. I don't feel like I can properly judge a lipstick on wear time, since I tend to get below average wear. Overall Jupiter is an ok lipstick. It wears comfortably, but not for that long. The $4 or less price point is spot on, even better when Ulta has their frequent NYX sales. I recommend NYX's Round Lipstick line as a whole, but not Jupiter in particular. It's certainly not a color for everyone. Sometimes I'm not even sure if it's a color for me.
