Great product, but the shade doesn't match the outer color of tube!
I made sure I snatched up a few of these much hyped babies when Target started carrying the brand. I got Antwerp and San Paulo. I liked how Antwerp photographed, its a nice, light, yellow pink, if you wear it sort of in the center of the lips, it gives a healthy, natural flush to the mouth. I couldn't decide which colors to get, so besides Antwerp I got San Paulo, which I thought would be much darker than it really was. Both shades don't really match or wear like the tube's color. I thought SP would be darker. On the doe foot applicator it looks like darkish rosey blue based pink. Its a medium rose although it looks almost bubble-gummy on. Its almost a darker version of Antwerp. I love the applicator, creamy texture and the feel of the product. It feels silky on and dries down, yet comfortably. It lasts forever and I seem to be one of the few who didn't get super dried out lips. I've been in a sort of anti-pink lips phase and maybe I'm not super enthused because I picked relatively pink shades. I kinda wish I picked others/more shades. But these are really pretty. When I get in a pink mood they really fit the bill, and I think they have the my lips but better look.
San Paulo
this shade is definitely my favorite! It is pinkish salmonish coralish.. I think its a shade that suits every skin color super easy to apply and the pigmentation of it is beyond amazing!! it goes on liquidish sort of and it dries matte. also it lasts a good few hours.. I eat with it, kiss my bf with it and it doesn't smear on him.
I love these lip cream lipsticks? I wish they added more new colors..
Better
This was pigmented. Very pigmented. Better than my Antwerp shade. It's cheap, convenient to carry around, and smells nice. But again, it's a little too creamy for me. Or is it really just that hot in my country? :/ Can't say that I would repurchase these NYX lip creams. But I do love the NYX Black Label lipstick in Bling though :)
