Finally gotten round to do the NYX lip gloss swatches. You can click HERE if you want to see the lipstick ones and I’ve already worn one out. I like it so far. I only ordered 9 of them at almost $2 each which makes them almost £1.50 for me. I picked up mostly pinks, the ones I thought would look more natural on me but I looked at swatches beforehand. The glosses come in plastic tubes and when it knocks against something it sounds cheap and more obvious it’s plastic but for that price I’m not surprised. Not too bothered about it.
I think these ones were a little harder to swatch than the lipsticks for me because they were a little sticky, you’d have to wipe a few times before it’d properly come off but my hand still felt a little sticky. After some wipes with the baby wipe it left some wool bits on my hands too which you might see in the swatches. They were all pigmented though unless it was the sheer ones. They’re more pigmented than I thought they were.
The lip glosses (in order that I swatched them):
Pinky natural
Natural
Strawberry
Mauve
Apricot
Sorbet
Real nude
Red tint
Peach
I tried to do the colour descriptions for you guys but I simply suck at it. I have to say until this age I still don’t know the rainbow song we used to have to sing in primary school and some names do describe the colour anyway. I know some pictures are a little blurred but I was trying to work fast with these. Another thing is I’m not liking the smell of these already, almost all of them smell like washing up liquid. Don’t think I fancy that but hey they’re cheap at least colour payoff wasn’t too bad.

Rant:
What is up with Luuux recently?! Usually when I check Luuux in the morning I'd see a good number of posts since the night before but I'm not seeing that lately. Whenever I click into a post 9 out of 10 of them are those short vague ones and I feel like I'm getting more spammy comments than before. Is it just me or is anyone else seeing this?! Where's all the real bloggers gone! :/
What do you think of these lip gloss swatches? Do you own any NYX lip glosses? In which shades?

love the swatches!
thanks for the swatches. i have most of these shades! :)
Thank you for such wonderful swatches and detailed posts, posts like these keeps me motivated on LUUUX :D
Nice swatches! I love the look of Apricot and Peach. ^^
great post!
Nice haul! I like the first 4 swatches the most. I feel that a lot of comments people leave on my posts are spams too. Yeah I notice that not everyone takes blogging seriously. Some are just here to get their points.
all of the lip glosses are soo pretty :)
great lipglosses
I love the shades you picked up! I definitely want to get pinky natural,sorbet,natural,real nude and mauve lol!
oh my, I'm so jelly of your NYX collection. I love them all :) pretty colors.
Natalie Penguin: Maybe you should, just go for it and see how you feel about it. It' good they're not expensive so they won't break the bank lol
Mimi Ho: Hopefully they'll just suddenly pop out nowhere so you don't need to hunt them lol it's not a review but swatches only but I'm glad this will come in handy
Lizz Mary: Strawberry is looking nice for the summery days. Hmm if you do it'll be nice to see what you picked up. I know, I think it's because they're still following the rules so there's not much people can do.
GLORiA ♥: Thanks, I actually wasn't expecting the pigmented ones but it's a nice surprise. For that cheap I wasn't expecting it to be perfect so I'm alright lol ahh thanks, I don't know what's going on with Luuux recently, too much traffic on the site and spammy stuff.
Pavan Kaur: Ordering from the states is more cheaper for us and there's always ebay which I think sells them for around that price. I'm glad you found them useful.
Janes Cupcakes: Ooh those are good choice, I know I'm a pinky girl but haven't tried how the nude looks on me yet. Yep and I'll be sporting a lot of these in spring/summer
hello itsniina: Thanks, maybe you'll be in for a surprise if it does work out for you lol I think pink ones go good with my skin
I've really been meaning to pick one up at Ulta, but I never have. I liked the way the Natural one looked!
Diana Khoubaeva: Some others are actually pigmented too, I just actually loaded a bit too much on my hands there lol mauve and real nude are pretty pigmented
Miss Ella: Lol I'm not going to put myself through that because I like all of them. Ooh sorbet looks like a good one, slightly on the sheer side but I think on the lips it'll look better
ooh i've always wanted to try nyx lipsticks and glosses but never really took the time to hunt them out, these look great, i love the pigmentation! thanks for the detail review and swatches they'll come in handy when i do pick some out :)
I own Strawberry and i use it a lot lol these are all so beautiful. i love the more natural colors :D i need to place a order and pick some up. Oh i know, i agree. It's been really annoying and like no one is doing anything about it :/
great post :) thanks for the swatches again!
i think it's kind of nice that they have more pigmented glosses and sheer ones as well~
i really like the 1st, 2nd, and last ones~
sorry to hear about the smell :T but at least they were inexpensive :)
and i definitely know what you mean about luuux posts as of late :(
but it's always a breath of fresh air when i see posts like yours!
thanks for your honest opinions and in-depth, helpful posts :D
I live in the Uk and have always wanted to try the NYX collection never thought about ordering from them as I thought it would cost way to much, but £1.50 is not bad at all. Thanks for the swatch gives me a idea of the colours I would like to try xxxxx
Nice swatches!
love the peach and sorbet. i'm definitely a nudey/pinky girl haha but that peach color would be perfect for the spring/summer
I really like the colors that you picked out! I think the only color that won't work on me is Sorbet. I always like pinkish lip colors, but they always look a little weird on me.
i quite like pinky natural. it seems like the most pigmented one out of the bunch.
I was trying to figure out what my favorite color was and couldn't decide lol I think I love Sorbet the best though. Great review
Mellissa W: Thanks, depends what you're swatching but there were a little bit of a pain. I'm impressed as well. Hmm maybe you can try find a cheaper alternative online?
you have all the nice colors!
Mylinh Nguyen: I think you should get them if you're not too picky about the smell. After all they're pretty cheap.
oOo! thanks for all the swatches!
Michelle Mai Huynh♡: Thanks michelle. I know, I don't like most things orange so when I got this I was like uh oh but the swatch ain't so bad.
Christina Ho: You mean 31 and 13 right? I almost didn't know what you were talking about lol Too lazy to even type the names?
Alana B: Some of them really are! The rest are the sheer ones. Maybe you can try finding them online. Theres beautyjoint where I got mine from or cherryculture which I'm sure a lot of you guys know already. Same here, so I only comment on those who do return the favour.
Sara Lopes: Thanks but cute? lol which part of them are cute?
❀Lisa Le❀: Thanks, I researched for the more natural ones before purchasing. Which two lipsticks do you own? I own a bunch and quite like them. They're sold for real cheap and I'm sure you might be able to find coupons or find it cheap online too. I KNOW! Their posts are full of C**P I don't even comment on them
Joann M: Which one do you have? I know what you mean about the smell. I sniffed all of them and they're not really that nice
Bonnie Roberts: Aww thanks for checking out my post! I'm glad this helped but on different skin colour the gloss might turn out different so my swatches aren't 100% accurate but it serves as a guide
Yaz G: Thanks, I've appreciated the bloggers that do swatches too. Takes time and patience and more than that. I haven't worn lipgloss ever since I was a young girl but I remember I liked them. YES! It's a waste of energy moving my finger to click that post! Ever since I learnt to blog properly I've never left 2 word comments on anyones post.
shannon s: Thanks, well that's how it felt on the hand I still need to see how it feels on the lips. I understand. Not even minutes after I post the like button just shoots up.
Thanks for all the swatches! I know they can be a pain to do. Im impressed with the pigmentation of most of them. I have yet to try NYX glosses because they're so pricey in Canada, but I think I'll save this post and order some online!
Jessica A♥: Even though you spend less time on here you still notice the spam, that means it's a big problem. Same here, there's only certain posts I read most preferably from the people I bookmarked because they're more reliable. I'm the opposite, only after swatching it I think I can't see myself wearing this but I'll need to try it to see
i've been wanting to get these glosses! i really like pinky natural!
Thank you for all the swatches Choi =) The colors look really nice. I like natural and Apricot looks scary in the tube but when swatched its not bad at all.
i lovee 22, 31, and 31. So pretty :D
these lipsticks are really pretty and look super opaque! they don't have these out at the place where they sell nyx here. and i know what you mean about people leaving two word comments, i know i put a lot of effort into my posts and i try to comment people's post with something of substance so it just sucks when the favor is not returned. :/ haha
great collection!! I loved all the colors, they are all so beautiful and cute
Oh wow. I never tried NYX lipglosses before but all the ones that you showed are gorgeous! I only have two NYX round lipsticks and they are alright but not my favorite lipsticks. I just might have to try a couple of their lipglosses the next time I got to Ulta. I know how you feel! They are so many people here on Luuux now that barely even write anything in their posts, its so annoying!
