These cost more than the other NYX lipsticks, but I’ve tried all three - Round, Diamond, and these, the Black Label - and these really are the best formula of the three. I don’t have the color migration issues that I do with most of the Round lipsticks;...
This is a gorgeous color - a true metallic, so there's no dithering about whether you've got enough of the holographic particles to give you really good effects. It also gave me complete opacity and even coverage in two coats, where most of the other Designer Series colors need three...
Pandora has blue undertones - it's the coolest color in the Touch collection. There's a slight metallic finish - more like a “high shine creme” than an actual metallic. This almost gives me ‘mannequin hands', but it looks just a touch more elegant. I don't know if that's the cool...
This color really, really, really impressed me! I don't know quite what I was expecting; but what I got was a cool mauve-red, something that flirts with being magenta but isn't quite; something that has the intensity of Stacy but isn't quite as dark. I originally got this because I...
Photos of this color looked either like a bright pink, or a touch too orange…so I had to try it for myself. The coral-gold shimmer over the pink actually looks good with my coloring, if a tad on the bright side. Unfortunately, the effect migrates. About 30 minutes after application,...
An extremely soft, subtle color - definitely a “neutral” or “natural” look shade on me. It's not quite a “my lips but better”, but a very very slight emphasis of the color. It's like San Francisco's wallflower cousin.
A nice neutral, despite the name :D I'll have to dig out my sample of Aromaleigh v1's Infernal Chaos and see how this color compares! Dry, this color's a dullish medium mauve that doesn't make me love it - though I'd imagine that it's someone's absolute perfect deeper dusty...
Highly pigmented, with heavy color payoff, no matter how you apply it. I think that if you're looking for a softer smoky-eye purple, this one might be a bit too much…but if you want a deeper, vampier purple or want a good liner shade, you're all set. I didn't...
In the jar, this looks darker than it applies. I thought it was just a cool greenish pewter…which didn't initially thrill me too much. The application shows the color far better than shots of just the shadow itself. Like all of BE's High Shine colors, ditch the sponge applicator...
