Matte Lipstick - Couture (Light Pink)

I bought the NYX Matte Lipstick in Merlot for my 12-year-old daughter to wear for her dance performances, and it was PERFECT. The color is a beautiful deep red that really pops on stage under bright lights without looking too dark or harsh on her. It goes on smoothly, feels lightweight, and didn’t dry her lips out like some matte lipsticks can. Most importantly — it stayed put! She danced for hours, sweated under stage lights, drank water, and it barely budged. I only had to do a tiny touch-up before awards. For the price, the quality is amazing. It looks way more high-end than it is. We’ll definitely be buying more shades for competition season!

LOVE THIS SHOCKING PINK! Don’t change it keep it!!

Creamy texture, stains lips well, feels moisturizing. But the color is not as expected, much more orange. I apply and wait 15 minutes then wipe away and I have a nice tint stain for a few hours. Just with I could wear as lipstick instead of using as a stain. Bought a different darker red color too and it was darker than expected and and the color was cooler than cooler than I expected. With the true red color would have been available because a good strong perfect red would be a dream.

This is a very good matte lipstick. The factors I use to determine this are ease of use, true to color, fragrance/taste, texture, and lasting power. First of all, the tube is just like any other lipstick. It was new, sealed, sent to me in a box which was way bigger than I expected. It twists up like any other lipstick. Stays up, goes down like it's supposed to function. Is it true to color? Yes, and no. I think that the lighting of the photo shown here on the product description seems much brighter than it should be. The lipstick is a gorgeous glam color. I think it's just perfect and I love it. But I will say that I checked MANY other pics and swatches prior to purchasing and determined based on blogger opinions whether this would suit my skin color. It works. I love it because it can be natural and everyday as well as glammed up with some serious eye makeup. The lipstick itself is matte so you have to be aware that the texture is going to be slightly thicker than your average glossy or even just regular lipstick. I'm okay with this because it's matte and it needs to stay put. I drink a lot of tea during the day and water from a bottle and it still stayed fairly in place. That was a great plus for me. But I'm also careful about dabbing and not wiping my mouth with a napkin because it's like just removing your lipstick at the end of the day. I would recommend it. And I am going to look into getting more colors too. Hope this helps you!

Love the color, Couture (Light Pink). Very light pink with just a hint of coral, matt color and no sheen or sparkle. I like the matt, but I always put just a bit of vasiline on my lips before I apply it and it's perfect. I dont think it's organic, but I love it enough to wear it anyway.

Very light color and I only ordered 1 and got 2

Perfect matte nude lip for brown girls ✨️ Smooth application, not overly drying, easy to remove. One of my staple products ✔️

Rich, dark purple that looks exactly as it does in the photo. No bleeding or smearing. Stays put for hours!

El color está precioso. Lo recomiendo muchísimo a las mujeres que les gustna los colores intensos. No se quita el color, siempre está ahí.

Very good lipistic and long staying one

Super schöner altrosa nude-ton. Ich denke der steht jedem Hautton. Man kann ihn sowohl zum Alltagslook, als auch zum eleganten Abend make-up gut tragen. Die Farbe ist bei NYX produkten erfahrungsgemäß kräftiger und intensiver als auf den Bildern erkennbar. Habe auch die Farbe ¨Merlot¨, ebenfalls ein schöner pinkiger rotton. Der Lippenstift hält bei mir so lange, bis ich etwas esse. Und er trocknet die Lippen auch nicht aus, wenn man ein Lippenbalsam drunter hat. Ganz toll, ich werde ihn bestimmt wieder kaufen.
