If you haven’t heard anything about these NYX Cosmetics Liquid Suede liquid lipsticks you are seriously missing out! Let me start by saying I am a huge Jeffree Star and Kat Von D liquid lip fan, so I was a little hesitant to try these even though I had heard so many good things. I do tend to be a high end snob with certain products and lipsticks are one one them. With that being said, lets get to my review.

I received my first NYX Cosmetics Liquid Suede in the shade Pink Lust in my lovely Ipsy bag. I was a little let down at first thinking they sent me a cheap lipstick. The packaging is nice and sturdy. I opened it up to find an oddly shaped doe foot applicator. I’m still not a big fan of that, but I have learned to manage. Still thinking this was just a cheap lipstick, I decided to go in for the kill and apply it right on my lips while waiting for my daughter to get off the bus… This was a mistake, but for all the right reasons.

LOVE! The color was so rich, so vibrant, and went on like a dream come true. It was love at first swipe. I allowed it to dry, which didn’t take terribly long. I was surprised to feel it wasn’t at all drying like most of my other liquid lipsticks. Dare I even say it felt a little hydrating.

It was beautiful… However, here I sit in my quick makeup job, waiting for my daughter’s bus with HOT pink lipstick on my lips. I grabbed a napkin from my glove box and, still thinking this was a cheap-o lipstick, I could just wipe it off. WRONG! This was the ultimate smudge test. This stuff was NOT coming off. Not even a little budge after vigorously rubbing my lips. I have to say, even in my panic, I was really impressed.

Finally, I picked up my daughter and decided what the hell, might as well run my errands and see how this stuff holds up. After my iced coffee, dinner, and a good six hours of wear, it was still beautiful. This stuff is serious! By the end of the night, I ended up having to use makeup remover and my Jeffree Star Lip Scrub to fully remove it.

The next day I hit up my local Ulta and picked up Soft Spoken. This too, is just as good and a great everyday color. All in all I give this product a thumbs up and rate it a must have.
