Review of NYX Simply Nude Lip Cream # 06 Sable

Hey ladies! Apologies for being really irregular here.  I have become utterly lazy when it come to doing anything other than reading a good book (Yes, the bookworm in me has risen again ). But today I felt like I cannot ignore Elegant Eves any longer and here I am! This review will be on a budget find again :D In my quest for perfect everyday wear lipstick, I spotted this on Nykaa. Read on to find if this is an MLBB shade or a nude shade or neither of both :P

Product name: NYX Simply Nude Lip Cream shade 06 Sable (There are about six shades in this range but Nykaa stocks only Sable probably because this is the only shade among the six which can suit Indian skin tones)
Price: Rs.500 for 3 gm
Available at: Nykaa.com

Packaging: These chubby sticks come in a twist-up packaging which avoids any wastage of product. The cap is a clear plastic one. One thing which irks me is that the product does not retract completely when twisted down. The tip of the lip crayon remains outside and that may cause it to chip off or have a nick when you are in a hurry to close the cap. Also, although the cap clicks lock nicely, but it is not very secure. It might come off when kept in purse and there is a lot of movement.

My Take: If you read my review on my favourite daily wear lipstick from Maybelline (Read HERE), you will know how much I love warm dusty pinks for regular wear. Also, for regular wear purpose, I prefer creamy or semi matte formulas instead of retro matte ones (Read difference between MLBB lipstick and a Nude lipstick HERE).

NYX Sable is yet another creamy lipstick which settles into a comfortable semi-matte finish few minutes after application. The shade is a perfect warm brown with pink tones which will suit fair to medium and medium-deep complexions, both in cool and warm undertones. For deeper skinned beauties NYX does not have a proper shade L “Sable” although looks very deep and wearable in reviews across internet, I will suggest deeper skinned beauties stay away from this as this will definitely wash you out.

This shade is perfect for the days when you just want to dab some lipstick to cancel out uneven pigmentation of your lips without having any noticeable colour on them and also are feeling too lazy for a full face makeup! I say this because if you have taken the effort of doing a full face makeup, then it is better to go for similar shades in other brands which have better staying power.
Although this crayon has BEAUTIFUL pigmentation and opaque coverage, it stays for only about 3 hours if you do not eat something in between. It transfers as well. After three hours it fades but thankfully a nice and even tint is left behind. I can see this shade as my “In my purse” kind of shade which I can use for touch-ups in office when I just need a polished look to my face. The texture is very light and super comfortable!
Have a look at the swatches!

On my face, I have intentionally skipped any base makeup and only my eyes are smudged with kajal, my brows done with a brown eyeshadow and my lips have NYX Sable. On lips, it looks lighter than what it does on wrists. Like it?
