Nyx lip crème in Milan and Monte Carlo
Surprise!
I came across these lip crèmes by accident. I was picking up the NYX powder blush when I noticed the girl standing next to me was trying the lip crème on. Instantly I knew I had to try it on and I'm glad I did!

Conclusion
The best thing about these lip crèmes is their staying power they easily stay on for around 6 hours. My high-end lipsticks only stay put for about an hour or so (2-3 hours if don't eat or drink something). I own these lip crèmes in 2 shades Milan (my go to lip product every day) and
Swatches of Milan and Monte Carlo
Milan and Monte Carlo
Milan is a gorgeous shade. It was the first one I got and fell in love with it. Its sort of a deep baby pink with a hint of mauve in it. It goes well as a day and night shade. It looks amazing with smoky eye makeup.
Monte Carlo is pretty reddish pink color. If you are in a hurry just apply a little concealer (to even out your skin tone) and this lip crème and you are good to go, it adds instant freshness to the face.
