It’s
always summer or sunny I should say living in the Caribbean! When I make a trip
to the beach I prefer to go there with the car windows down so you can feel the
cool sea breeze as you are nearing the beach. But back at the concrete jungle
you can simple have that in the form of a NYX Matte lipstick called Summer Breeze.
So how
can we describe this colour? I think we can call it pepto pink or Barbie pink.
It would fit greatly into those descriptions. The lipstick itself is like most
matte ones where it is not moisturizing on the lips so you need to wear a touch
of lip balm underneath. However, it has great pigmentation and decent staying
power.
Now does
anybody have MAC’s Pink Noveau? NYX Summer Breeze looks pretty close right? And
if it is, well then it was be a pretty inexpensive alternative to that!
Happy Summer Breeze!
XOXO

I bought this shade not very long ago, and pepto pink describes it perfectly. I love the NYX matte lipsticks. I think they are every bit as good as more expensive brands.
ReplyDeleteOh good to know! Did you get anymore colours or planning on getting more?
DeleteI have quite a few of them actually. I have Audrey, Angel, Tea Rose and Summer Breeze. I posted swatches of Audrey and Angel here http://exquisitewitheczema.blogspot.com/2012/03/nyx-matte-lipsticksaudrey-and-angel.html.
DeleteI do plan on getting more at some point, I just need to figure out which ones.
I see, good thing for swatches! I really love NYX lipsticks
DeleteOooo...I've never tried NYX lipsticks. I can't seem to find them where I live for some reason! I may have to order them online...this shade is lovely! :)
ReplyDeleteOh interesting! Strange that you cant find NYX there! Well i find anything I want on amazon but of course with a shipping price tag. I'm glad i can find nyx here though.
DeleteThat shade is so pretty on u. But Pink nouveau is pinker and deeper imo. but still its very close.
ReplyDeleteOh thanks Chantal! I was going to get Pink nouveau but if this is close enough then i wouldnt bother. I have ran out of storage space for my lippies at the moment!
Deleteits perm so no hurry but its my fav bright pink.
DeleteReally? Well i love mac lippies too so you never know when i will add new ones.
DeleteWow!! this looks amazing on u. <3 I am yet to try the matte lippys frm NYX...guess i should pick one soon ;)
ReplyDeleteAnd if you do I expect some pics!
DeletePepto pink lol it really looks similar to the limited edition Mac Pink Friday lipstick (that was satin) really looks similar! I love nyx lipsticks I'll have to try the matte ones soon. thx!
ReplyDeleteOh i was thinking about pink friday too. Do you have that one?
DeleteThe color looks beautiful, but a bit too light for my skintone. Looks so flattering on you!
ReplyDeleteThanks Nivedita! What skintone are you? I guess if you pat the colour on the lips lightly it might work for you. That's what i do sometimes when i find the colour too bright for me
DeleteHi Naomi! Oh wow! Totally lurv that shade! Hope you will join me too x

Thanks Sam! I love the jewelry
DeleteI don't have Pink Nouveau but this color reminds me of St. Germain, I love how you paired it with black liner.
ReplyDeleteJust a simple look really! When i'm not sure what colours to use, i just pair it with black! Do you have St. Germain. Always wanted that one too!
DeleteGorgeous, this color shows up so nicely against your skin!
ReplyDeleteThanks Dawn! How r u? Hope good
DeleteOoh I love this colour, and it suits you so well!:) It's a shame I have a bit of a problem with matte finishes because my lips are so dry!:(
ReplyDeleteOh i seem to be having dry lips myself lately.
DeleteThis is such a lovely color!
ReplyDeleteYES!!!!!
