Lips: NYX Round Lipstick in Fig & Mini Review

Posted By Anna L ~ Feb 20, 2010 4:01PM

Lip swatch:

I've actually blogged about Fig before (in my other blog) but I'll just do it again here anyway, since I have different followers and well, just because.

(My previous lip swatch in the other blog was really bad too TBH)

I really like this lipstick for its colour and how moisturizing it feels. However, even though it looks really pretty in the swatch, on my face as a whole it's not very flattering for my complexion. I used to be really tanned when I was younger (without doing any sports) and I've gotten fairer over the years and I think it's probably because my skin has like weird undertone colours and thus the colour looks off on me :(

The colour is gorgeous but it makes my look like my lips are swollen, and it just POPS (compared to my skin tone) and makes my skin tone look dull and sallow :(

[Sallow: Of a sickly yellowish hue or complexion]

I don't mean to insult you guys by putting the dictionary definition of 'sallow' above but it's just so you know exactly what I mean.

This colour will probably suit fair girls better.

I don't regret getting it though. It's such a pretty and unique colour and I'll still (hopefully) find a way to rock it. ;)

 

x,

Anna
