My camera is still not working! Pardon me with some blurry photos but I really, really want to make a review on this lip product. All photos were taken from my phone and when I'm doing watermarks on them, I know it doesn't give justice to its real color. My other problem in trying a bright lippie is that it turns out darker than the true color because I have tad pigmented lips.
Some said this is a dupe for the infamous MAC Girl About Town lipstick and we all know that MAC lipsticks are expensive. I don't own GAT lipstick so I can't compare it but I'm impress with it and for being a cheapskate, I'm totally sold!
This lip cream is one of my longest lemming and I'm glad that I bought it. A lot of girls have been raving them and some of them can't resist to buy all the colors, why?
Neither lipstick nor lip gloss—this is matte lip cream. A new kind of pout paint that goes on silky smooth and sets to a matte finish. Soft Matte Lip Cream is surprisingly durable and, unlike some matte lipstick formulas, also moisturizing. Available in 11 lip colors.

What I like:
- The packaging is nice, I like the top part of the tube that is rubbery finish and looks expensive.
- Really pigmented.
- The doe foot applicator makes applying easy.
- Can be used as a lip stain or full matte look without using lip liner.
- The texture is creamy, velvety and it's like whipped cream on my lips but goes dry after minutes of application.
- The scent- sweet but not overpowering.
- Doesn't dry my lips.
- Once dry it's transfer and water resistant.
- Last 6 hours on my lips.
- Easy to remove.
- There's a batch and manufacturing date printed on it.
- Inexpensive.
What I don't like:
- Since this turns out matte after a few minutes, it emphasized fine lines on my lips.
- Comes off after eating or sipping my drink and fades unevenly.
- It left my lips with a lip liner like line when I ate greasy food.
Will I repurchase? Yes! I want to try other colors like Sao Paulo, Amsterdam and Milan
Recommendation:
I give this a 4.75/5 rating. I really love this to bits! Brightens my dull face and gives an oomph factor to my lips. Be sure to moisturize your lips prior to application to prevent dryness. I always use my EOS or Carmex lip balm underneath it. NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream is love!
Have you tried matte lippies before?Thanks for visiting, Happy Monday everyone :)
Good Times!~
