The Summer Season: NYX 24 Karat Lipstick
NYX 24 Karat Lipstick ($5.50) is an ultra shimmery, borderline glittery metallic copper with a copper-brown color base. This is a very, very bronzy shade, and I definitely think it’s more suitable for tanner skin. It has a high-shine that’s more metallic than shimmery. I love that the color is entirely opaque! I get about two to three hours of wear with this particular lipstick, and I didn’t notice any scent other than waxiness of the lipstick itself. No real taste, either!
Is this the right bronze for you? Would you wear it?
The Summer Season is a series of posts featuring bright, vibrant shades of coral, orange, and pink lipsticks and lipglosses — all perfect for a summer of fun — that runs through July 2010.

I'm shocked a lot of people don't like it... I LOVE IT! I like it when you wear colors outside of the red or pink range.... especially the ones that warms up your face. Cute
i have a thing about buying lipsticks from drugstores .. that would be NO! Im highly picky about formulation and texture as well as color and i would spend the luxury of a well formulated lipstick than a drugstore.
it lokk so beachy! love the colour!
I really, really love this color. Will pick it up at Harmon after work!
Pretty, but not for my skin. Awwwwww..... How I wish sometimes I had that gorgeous olive skin! :)
everything looks great on you, sheesh! :P
:P
I love golds and bronze lipsticks I'm gonna pick that lipstick up the next chance I get, 24 karat looks good on you Christine.
Thanks, Leenie!
This is such a beautiful color! Wow.
Does this lipstick in any way remind you of Thrills? Just wondering...
Not really - this is glittery, golden-metallic, and has a strong orange/copper tone. Thrills has more rose to it!
thanks for the info! :) I just bought thrills, and I was checking if this was 'too close' a shade to purchase. Where do you buy these NYX products?
nyxcosmetics.com!
This looks very much like MAC Thrills, only with more shimmer.
Is this a dupe for MAC's Thrills l/s?
I don't think so, IMO! It's way too glittery and orange-y.
It may just be me, but this kind of reminds me of thrills from the To The Beach collection but with a lot more shimmer to it. hmmm could just be me though lol : )
I absolutely love this color! I will definitely be trying this asap!
How does this compare to MAC's Thrills lipstick?
More orange/copper, no rosiness, more glittery.
Maybe it'll look great on tan skin, but I think I'll skip it!
Beautiful color. NYX is a great brand!
wow, this is perfect for summer...love it...i have a similar shaded from Avon
Ooo what shade from Avon is it?
What a beautiful color but probably too bronzy for my fair skin :)
that's terrible XD
not sure how i'd wear it.. but I'd probably just get it to have.
