Review: NYX Butter Gloss

I should have stated this as a product rave because I am totally digging these NYX Butter Glosses! I purchased six out of the 12 shades and really love each one. Plus, who can not love the name Butter Gloss? With scrumptious names like Apple Strudel, Peaches and Cream and Eclair, it's very hard to resist these budget friendly glosses. So of course I end up with six instead of just one or two. 
The texture of these are smooth and buttery and only have a bit of tack to help with the lasting power. When I have these glosses on, my lips feel moisturized. Once the gloss fades or is wiped off, my lips feel soft and smooth. No peeling lips here! As for the pigmentation, I love these. Some of the glosses, like Creme Brulee and Maple Blondie, are more sheer while the darker shades like Peach Cobbler are bold and opaque. The sheer glosses mute my pigmented lips just enough and are great for everyday. Sometimes I'll even use these to layer over my lipstick for a milky pout. If you want a more pigmentation, choose one of the darker shades. These do have a sweet scent which dissipates after the gloss has been applied. I don't find it offensive or overly sweet but those who are sensitive may find it bothersome.



Pros:
-Buttery gloss like the name implies
-Variety of shades
-Affordable
-Cute Packaging
-Moisturizes and softens lips

Cons:
-Some may not like the scent
-Some may not like the sheerness of certain colors
-NYX can be hard to find locally in some areas

Repurchase? YES!

FoTD Featuring NYX Jazz Night Palette

Today Beau decided to surprise me and take me out to dinner so I decided to whip up a quick look using the NYX palette I recently bought with Ulta. I really like the colors but I wish it were a tad more pigmented. I tagged which colors I used by the kitty stickers. =) I'm also trying out L'Oreal's Magic Smooth Souffle foundation and so far I'm liking it a lot. I'll have a review of it up soon.
