Frequently asked questions

The NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream is a lightweight liquid lipstick. It's formulated to go on silky smooth, and because it's a cream, it doesn't feel heavy or clumpy like some liquid lipsticks can. It dries to a matte finish but still feels soft and comfortable on the lips.

The Budapest shade in the NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream collection is a deep mauve with a red undertone. It's a rich, bold color that can add depth and drama to your look.

Yes, the NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream is known for its long-lasting formula. It's designed to stay put after you apply it, but it's still comfortable enough to wear all day. However, like any other lipstick, it may need some touching up after eating or drinking.

Despite its matte finish, the NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream is not overly drying. It's a cream-based product, so it's moisturizing and comfortable to wear. However, if you have particularly dry lips, it's a good idea to apply a lip balm before the lipstick for added hydration.

Should I Buy It?

If you're a fan of pigmented, long-lasting, creamy matte lipsticks that don't dry out your lips, NYX's soft matte lipsticks would be a stellar addition to your makeup routine. However, always do a sensitivity test if you tend to have reactions to cosmetic products. As with any online purchase, the actual color may slightly differ from the online representation.

  • My favorite color so far, looks natural on me
Color: Athens Size: 0.27 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I wanted lip cream that is not shiny, but that looks natural and has a natural nude-like color. This is the closest I've ever found to my natural lip color, that can hide discolorations and even out the color, with a very slightly but still very natural-looking pink tint. I am East Asian for reference, with closer to an average lighter-skinned South East Asian skintone (I am actually half southern Chinese and half southern Japanese/Okinawan), so I am not that pale, but not tanned either, and have bit of yellow undertone (Sephora's "best skin ever" concealer color is 12Y). The first pic (with the hat) is with just the Athena color lip cream and lightly-applied concealer. The second pic (without hat) is with the Athena color lip cream in gradient with a redder lipstick on the inner lips and full face of heavier-applied concealer. I like that it dries fast, so I don't have to wait long to apply another coat or other lip stuff on top. But it does smudge still, not as much as average lipstick, but it will such as if you drink with a straw, there will be a little smudging, but less than average. It does not last me a full day, but it is easy to apply and lasts at least for some hours, which is enough for most shorter outings. You should bring it with you if you go somewhere, if you want to reapply it to last longer. I also like that, despite that it dries fast after applying, it isn't drying to the lip skin. It balances my lip moisture level to whatever it was when I applied it. In the first pic with the hat, I did put a little bit of medicated lip balm under it before putting on the lip cream. I don't wear makeup much in general, so it's unlikely I will run out any time soon, but if I do, I will buy this again for sure. I hope it will still be for sale by then. ... show more

  • OVER 70 and still love lip colors! Ones that work with my super pale skin
Color: Budapest Size: 0.27 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
First, I am in my early 70's. I use my toothbrush to exfoliate around my lips and then put original Burt's Bees (the waxy peppermint one) on at night and during the day. I mention this because while I find these mattes non-drying, I wouldn't want to start with a DRY or CHAPPED lip. This will give you an idea about my reviews of the colors. I chose them after looking at them OVER and OVER with the hope they would go with my pale, blue tone skin tone and they DO! PROS: FIRST, all went on SMOOTHLY, feel creamy and take awhile to dry down. That gives you time to touch up if you have colored at all outside the lines, a quick swipe with Qtip fixes that. BUDAPEST - This and MADRID are MY FAVS for everyday. Love it on my fair skin. A nice moderately dark mauve, but with some red to it, shade that is flattering, gives me some color and one that will be an every day go to. Not nearly as DRAMATIC as Madrid or Copenhagen, but DEFINITELY noticeable for some POP! MADRID - A GREAT red for those of us with fair skin with more blue in our tone. It's a medium bright red, but not TOO bright. There's just enough brownish mauve to tamp it down and make it VERY flattering on my pale skin. Makes more of a statement than the Budapest, but still definitely wearable during the day running errands. Sets off my mostly white hair well :-) COPENHAGEN - OK, this was a bit of a surprise. I looked at SEVERAL youtube vids of women of different skin colors trying on all the shades. I was concerned the Copenhagen might be TOO dark (not really going for heavy vamp or Goth look, but I LOVE my dark reds!). INTERESTING COLOR. Not as dark on, and I'm looking at it on my lips in sunlight. Kind of deep red wine with slight brown overtone. NYX calls it a deep plum, but on my skin, more of a deep wine. Goes well with my blue undertone skin. It is DEFINITELY the darkest of the three, and I think likely the DARKEST red/wine shade before you start going into really dark purples like Transylvania or Vancouver. ... show more

  • Monte Carlo, more orange heavy than red
Color: Monte Carlo Size: 0.27 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Bought this hoping it would be a deep/dark red like pictured, but it turned out looking more like an orange red in natural light. I'm not aiming for a Marylin Monroe look so I'll probably only use it at home where the lighting is poor and it looks more red. Now for the nitty gritty. Application: Easy. I had zero problems with application, it goes on smoothly and has a matte finish. Feel: Not super moisturizing, but if you apply lip balm first, it should be just fine. It felt like wearing a traditional lipstick in my opinion. Wear: It has the wear of a traditional lipstick, so expect some transfer, but it did hold up pretty well after I ate a croissant sandwich. Still, it'll need to be touched up occasionally. Honestly I probably won't try anymore colors from this NYX line and just stick with NYX Lingerie XXL ... show more
