NYX Professional Makeup Full Throttle Lipstick, Sidekick 0.08 oz

I had been buying pricier lipsticks because I wanted matte without having it look dry. But I really didn't want to pay so much if I could find a drugstore product that would look as good as the more expensive brand. Most drugstore mattes, sadly, go on too thick and show every line on one's lips. NYX Full Throttle, however, gives the soft matte look that I like, has a decent color range, is long lasting -- and costs much less than what I had been using.

I purchased three shades of this lipstick: Loaded (described as a deep mauve, but is more like a maroon colour), Nightcrawler (much deeper than the swatch on the site), and Kiss the Dust (a lovely deep beige). The formula of this lipstick is amazing. It's creamy during application, but dries down to a very matte and waterproof finish quickly. Once it's dry, it's transfer proof. Very similar to a liquid lipstick, but without the difficulty to apply since it's in a stick form. My only complaints are that the beveled tip is not very useful and goes flat after one or two usages. Also I wish there were more product in the tube than the 2.4g (0.08oz). Overall I love this lipstick, and I hope they expand the line in the future with more shades!

Every time I experiment with another lipstick I'm disappointed. The coverage, lightweight feel, awesome color and lack of scent have made Full Throttle my signature lipstick. Please never discontinue it!!

I thought this lipstick many times and I can't seem to find it anywhere else Alta use to sell it but now I come here to get it and I'm so glad that they have it

I was so happy to receive my package and open it to see that the colour "Trickster" is EXACTLY what I wanted and is really accurate to what the site shows it as. I applied it with a lot of care since I see in other reviews that the stick is delicate my OMGGG does this stuff stay on. It's a beautiful soft matte finish and is highly pigmented. I applied ONCE and i ate, drank coffee, and went to work for 7 hours all to find that my lips were still looking great! FANTASTIC product, Nyx!

I bought this about 2 day's ago & I am impressed. I love everything about these lipstick.. I have tried soo many matte lipsticks (which by the way are my favorite) but these are impressive, I love how pigmented they are & how long lasting they stay on your lips after a meal & drinks.. I also love how they do not dry up my lips like other matte lipsticks do. I really hope Nyx bring them back cause I will buy them over & over again highly recommend these.

I'm very much impressed with the formula of these lipsticks. Upon application, its very creamy and comfortable, then it dries down matte. BONUS POINTS for being smudge-proof & waterproof! I just wish they would have more wearable day to day colours, such as pinky nudes, mauves & warm beige.

I only got to use this twice because I dropped it and it completely broke and the lipstick part flew out & rolled under the bathroom cabinet! Anyways...I really liked the colour, formula and ease of application. It's great for the price! It's Matte but not drying at all. Really liked it for the 2 times I used it!

I tried on the testers and loved some of the colors but after a couple seconds my lips looked dry and cracked...can't wear this product without a gloss or lip balm to add moisture...I think I'll stick to the butter lipsticks or even the matte or cream of round. I don't like having to layer so many products!

I got this lipstick in two colours and the formula is pretty good for the price. They're pigmented, they're matte. But the packaging is still awful. I've read previous reviews, and have seen that I'm not the only one who's had the problem with the lipstick being loose in the tube, or smooshing into the lid, ruining the end of it, and wasting product. They need to seriously fix this.
