NYX Nudes Soft matte lip creme glosses

Hello lovelies,

Ok, I know it's been a while! 

I started uni, got caught up with work, usual shebang which meant that I've neglect my blog. However, blogging is something that I love doing, it's the only thing I have to put my mind away from work, stress and everything else that's bothering me, so it's my aim to make sure that this doesn't happen again! 

You might also notice that I have also changed my blog name. I used to be "BeautyandlifestylebyML" but I have now become "TheBeautyholicGirl". I was never happy with the name of my blog, I thought that it wasn't easy for readers to remember and it was a little too long. During this past month changing the name of my blog was constantly on the back of my mind. I thought about it a lot, then suddenly one morning I woke up and thought of "TheBeautyholicGirl". Why this name? I'm a saddo, one of my only passions is beauty and make up. I'm literally a "Beautyholic", so what better name could I have chosen? 

I thought I'd keep this one short so that I could ease myself into it, but I really wanted to share with you my favourite NYX soft matte lip cremes. I recently ordered these from Selfridges and I was over the moon when I received them the following day. They are just GAWJUSSS :O 

I bought them in the shades Stockholm and Abu Dhabi, I love nudes and since I hadn't tried NYX products before I thought I couldn't go wrong with nudes! 

Here are a few things I love about them:

• The colours are very pigmented
• They smell really nice
• They go on smoothly and dry up matte 
• The packaging is small and compact - it's easy to fit into a small make-up bags 

Downsides: 

• Durability
• Also found that the texture between the two was slightly different. Abu Dhabi appeared to be more "clumpy" when I was applying it. I don't know of it's just because it's new though. I'd love to hear if you guys have found the same thing. 

Unfortunately the main drawback that I found in these NYX lippy's is that they easily come off when eating. This is a really big downside for someone like me because I am constantly snacking or drinking and far too lazy to re-apply my lipstick's straight after. 

Neverthless, I still really love them! They were only £5.50 which is a fraction of what I'd pay for MAC or other High end lipsticks with similar finishes.

I thought I would share some pictures for you to show you how they look on the lips (excuse the lighting, it's always so dull in the UK)

Here is Stockholm :)

And here is Abu Dhabi

Thank you so much for reading and I hope you enjoyed this post :)
