Nyx Lipstick

Tons of NYX lipstick shades and styles are available, and each can be used in a multitude of ways. The most important thing to do before using any lipstick is to exfoliate and moisturize your lips. This gives you a smooth, hydrated foundation for whatever product you apply.

Then select your favorite NYX lipstick, and read the directions on the packaging. A long-lasting lipstick is likely to have different directions than a traditional lipstick or gloss. Adhering to those directions helps extend the life cycle of the lipstick, so you can look as fabulous as possible all day long. Try beginning your application by tracing the outer lip line to create the perfect, smudge-free shape. Then fill in your lips with color, blotting off excess product and allowing the rest of the lipstick to dry before you eat or drink.

The brand has labeled several NYX lipsticks and other lip products as long-lasting. NYX Professional Makeup Lingerie XXL liquid lipstick is easy to apply thanks to a tapered applicator that follows your natural lip shape. The formula lasts up to 16 hours without the color cracking, bleeding, fading or transferring. You can wear it all day and even go out on the town or don it for a wedding or other special event and not worry about a thing.

The brand has other long-lasting lipsticks and glosses, too. Look for options that boast two-stop technology that pairs an ultra-pigmented base coat with a glossy, nonsticky topcoat.

The best NYX lipstick is the product that gives you the look you crave and the benefits you need. NYX matte lipsticks forego gloss and shine in favor of a subdued finish. NYX Professional Makeup Suede matte lipstick comes in a dozen or so shades, including eye-catching pink and berry hues as well as a blue-gray shade and spicy red. 

If you find yourself wishing your lips were a little juicier, try a plumping lip gloss that can help give your smile more volume and curves. You can play around with applicators, too. Powder-puff lippies allow you to dab on color to create a light stain or build color for a more dramatic pout. Push-up applicators give a lipstick finish but liner-like definition, so you can shape that cupid's bow or overline lips to create the illusion of a larger lip line.
