Hey, y'all! Today, I'm back with a new series on my blog called, "From the Desk of P & P..." These posts will be specific reviews of products, including clothes, makeup, skincare, decor, etc. Please let me know in the comments section if there is a particular category or product you would like to see! I hope you all enjoy these, and without further ado, let's get started!
Official Stats on NYX Butter Glosses:
-described by NYX as: "Buttery soft and silky smooth, our scrumptious new Butter Lip Gloss tastes as sweet as a sugar cookie—and makes your lips look downright luscious. Swipe it on alone or over your favorite lipstick for creamy sheer to medium coverage that melts onto your lips and is never sticky."
-available in 12 different shades, ranging from natural blush pink to candy apple red
-given an "O-ward" from O, the Oprah Magazine for best Spring Makeup in 2013
Personal Feedback:
On a trip to Ulta way back when, I picked up a NYX Butter Gloss in the shade 'Tiramisu'. Ever since, I've been wearing it like crazy. The shade I got is a "your lips but better" kind of color, so I wear it pretty much every day!
Right off the bat, the smell is enough of a reason to pay $5 bucks for it. It smells like vanilla or cookies or sugar and spice and everything nice ;). Seriously, it's the best! Also, to be a neutral shade gloss, it is surprisingly very pigmented.

It is so smooth and creamy but not super sticky, nor does it catch every single piece of your hair as you walk from the house to the car (does that happen to anyone else?!). Coming from someone with verrryy dry lips, I've found it to be pretty moisturizing as well.
One of the down sides is how frequently you have to reapply the product. Because mine is pretty natural, I don't have to do this too often, but if you have a darker shade, it might be a bit more of a time investment ;).
NYX Butter Gloss
color: tiramisu
oh snap...gettin' fancy!
swatch with only one swipe... pretty impressive!
lips: bare
lips: glossed
kisses for everyone!
Overall Score: 7/10
I love the texture and appearance of this product; those both get an A+ in my book! However, the constant reapplication, especially for darker colors, deters this makeup item from being super stellar.
