We all know how much I love the NYX Soft Matte Lip Creams. They're not drying and the nude shades are incredible! Fair enough, they're not the longest lasting liquid lipstick but I don't mind reapplying if I've been sinking my teeth into something tasty. When the Lip Lingeries came out I was super excited because I loved the Soft Matte Lip Creams so much and I was head over heels on the shade range! So I picked up two shades recently to see how they compared!
I picked up the shades Satin Ribbon and Baby Doll as I'd swatched them on my hand and these were the ones I liked the most. So I sprinted (got the train and walked) home to try them out because I was so giddy.
I was nothing but super disappointed when I first tried them. I'm completely unsure if I have a bad batch or these are just what the liquid lipsticks are like but when I applied them they were so patchy and felt almost rubbery on my lips. I know that nude shades can be patchy so I applied a lip liner underneath to see if this would make a difference but I still had the same experience.
I keep trying them both as I want to love them but I just can't! So based on my experiences the Soft Matte Lip Creams win everytime in terms of moisture, pigmentation and how comfortable they are to wear.
Has anyone else had a similar experience to this with these particular shades of Lip Lingerie? Let me know as I am dying to know if it is worth picking up some different shades! See you soon!

I really enjoy their Matte Lip Creams and I'm glad I held out on the Lip Lingeries despite the all the hype around them. There's nothing worse than a patchy, uncomfortable liquid lipstick!

That's just my experience with them, but some people seem to like them! And i agree with you nothing worse than a disappointing product that you want to love!x
DeleteI'm 100% on the Lip Lingerie train! They feel so comfortable on my lips. I find that the texture of the soft matte creme's just transfer everywhere on me x
