NYX Apple Strudel Butter Gloss
NYX Butter Gloss ($5.00 for 0.27 fl. oz.) is described as a “sheer to medium coverage” gloss that can be worn alone or over lipstick and “is never sticky.” The formula is also supposed to “provide nourishment.” They have a creamy, light-to-medium-weight consistency that glides on, feels comfortable, and is lightly tacky (they gradually get a little tackier as they wear on as well). The formula has a sweet, vanilla scent. As described, coverage varies from semi-sheer to semi-opaque. They wear two to three hours on me, on average, and they were slightly hydrating.
NYX Apple Strudel Butter Gloss ($5.00 for 0.27 fl. oz.) is described as a “peach.” It’s a light-medium, warm-toned peachy-pink with a cream finish. It had semi-opaque color coverage, but it didn’t apply evenly and had a tendency to settle into lip lines–especially over time. It lasted for three hours on me. NARS Chihuahua (P, $26.00) is sheerer. NARS Tasmania (P, $26.00) is darker. NARS Belize (P, $26.00) is darker. Bobbi Brown Nectar (LE, $24.00) is warmer. MAC Talk Softly to Me (LE, $15.00) is slightly cooler-toned. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
NYX Cherry Cheesecake Butter Gloss ($5.00 for 0.27 fl. oz.) is described as an “orange.” It’s a softened,, medium orange with warm undertones and a cream finish. It had semi-opaque pigmentation, and it settled slightly into lip lines, but because it was a deeper color, it didn’t seem as noticeable at a normal viewing distance (only really, really up-close). It wore well for three hours on me. NARS Wonder (P, $26.00) is darker. MAC Teen Dream (LE, $20.00) is a bit darker, less glossy. MAC Cheerful (P, $22.00) is a touch darker. Guerlain Tangerine Vlam (P, $30.00) is darker. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
NYX Maple Blondie Butter Gloss ($5.00 for 0.27 fl. oz.) is described as a “deep peach.” It’s a muted, medium warm-toned pink with a cream finish. It had semi-opaque color payoff, and it wasn’t as prone to settling as Apple Strudel, but it didn’t apply flawlessly–just a little unevenness, a bit of settling. The color lasted for two and a half hours on me. NARS Tasmania (P, $26.00) is sheerer. NARS Belize (P, $26.00) is darker. MAC Go for Girlie (LE, $20.00) is darker, pinker. Urban Decay Flushed (P, $19.00) is darker, less glossy. Maybelline Caramel Infused (065) (P, $8.99) is darker. MAC Talk Softly to Me (LE, $15.00) is cooler-toned. MAC Please Me (LE, $15.00) is cooler-toned. See comparison swatches / view dupes.

Thanks Miss Temptalia for the swatches…..Cherry cheese cake is looking so lovely….A definite must buy these are for me….
No problem, Faiza!
Maple Blondie is pretty 🙂 Cherry Cheescake isn’t exactly the colour I associate with cherries in any form, though – they should have called it Apricot Tart or Orange Cheescake (?) or…something. Yeah, Nyx should totally hire me to be on their product naming team… 😛
I really love these glosses – I keep meaning to see if I can get a hold of the Raspberry one (purple, also not a colour I traditionally associate with raspberries, but pretty nonetheless) and maybe one of the more vibrant coral ones (…Peach cobbler?)
Haha! Yes, NYX seems some help naming their products if they’re going to try to name it after colors/iconic shades for color, lol!
Lipgloss is the one product I struggle to go drugstore with, because the scents they tend to use are often sweet or cloying or just synthetic-y NASTY. I’m on the hunt though, so I will go check these out!
This one was more pleasant to me – I don’t like the synthetic, super fruity ones!
Cute names 🙂 I like Cherry Cheesecake the most. At least it doesn’t have that milky finish.
Yay!
The Butter Glosses are far from the best performing glosses I’ve worn – but they’re still some of my favorites. There’s just something about how they look on the lips that really appeals to me 😀
They’re fairly comfortable to wear, though I have found that they don’t LOOK as lovely as some other glosses (as these are milkier).
I won’t argue 5 bucks for a lipgloss of this quality. Looks every bit as good as some of the recent summery sorbet coloured offerings if not better.
Very true!
Cherry cheesecake is cute
It is!
Ahh NYX I still love you even though your French translations are always awful. Cheesecake looks lovely on you!
Thanks, Judith!
These look so cool and I love the names, it’s so adorable
The names are definitely cute!
Apple Strudel is my go-to lipgloss! I also have Cherry Cheescake which I like, but not as much. Now I’d like Maple Blondie. It’d go great on top of MAC Angel.
I could totally see it working well over Angel!
Cherry Cheesecake is my kind of color! It’s not red like the actual fruit though. LOL
I like Maple Blondie too. =)
LOL!
I love Apple Streudel!
Yay!
WOW, very pigmented little glosses, better than the Nars!
I think that they are even more pigmented that the new formula in the Revlon ones?
It’s a shame that they are so hard to track in Mexico, I found a place where they sell it but only one in the second biggest city in my country!
At least you found one place, even if it’s just one!
Go NYX!
🙂
I have several of these and I love them. The colors are very pretty and they feel so nice on my dry lips. The first time I wore one of these, I wondered where these glosses had been all my life. The price is great and I love the packaging because you can always clearly see what color you’re reaching for.
Happy to hear you’re loving the formula, Carrie!
I have Maple Blondie, but I want some more and Cherry Cheesecake looks so pretty!
Hope you’ll have a chance to check it out, Miki!
I have almost all the NYX Butter Glosses! I feel that they perform best on top of a lipstick. It gives it an extra kick! 🙂
Yay! I definitely agree that they’re better over something!
I almost got these the other day at work, and I should have! Oh well, it’s not like I’ll never go back to work… haha!
LOL!
Yep, Nyx are buy one get one half off this week! I bought Cherry Cheesecake Today and I was nervous about it but it’s actually really great on my fair skin. Can’t wait to get a few more. 😀
I want to know who names NYX’s products because they are obviously colorblind lol.
Anyway, I own a few of these and they’re very nice for the price. Good pigmentation, feel comfortable on the lips…I see they got a few new colors in so I’m probably going to try them out!
LOL! Right? Some names are REALLY off!
Cheesecake is so pretty! I love these glosses so I have to have it lol. I just wish they wore a little longer
It would be nice if they wore a bit longer!
wow – you are GLOWING!
What’s your current skincare routine/foundation?
I use Guerlain Parure de Lumiere! 🙂 Skincare rotates/changes with something new every two weeks (I have all my products, and every two weeks, something new rotates, so I’m not switching the entire routine all at once).
Christine, is Cherry Cheesecake similar to MAC’s Live It Up (Playland) lipglass?
Live It Up is lighter! http://www.temptalia.com/mac-playland-lipglasses-reviews-photos-swatches
Cherry Cheese cake looks fab.. such a preettyy orange gloss!! 🙂
Glad ya liked it, Poo!
I love it when you review drugstore products! Thanks for the review! I think I have about 6 of these glosses. My favorite is creme brule I think. Of these three in this review, I own Apple Strudel. It reminds me a little of MAC flourabundance.
Ooh, good to know it is similar to that shade!
somehow to me i think of red for cherries, not orange, but they look pretty
LOL! It’s not the first time NYX has named something and the color isn’t like it at all.
I am obsessed with the Butter Glosses and I’m not normally a lip gloss fan. I have about 15 of them and Cherry Cheesecake is one of my favorites.
Wow! It must be love 😉
I think cherry cheesecake looks nicest on you out of these three.
Thanks, Erin!
I have Apple Strudel and Tiramisu 😀 yep, Apple settles into lines but it’s cute, sheer and pretty unique among what I can find over here. Tiramisu looks better texture wide and it’s a gorgeous brownish-pink nude 😀 yum yum, I think I’ll get the Cheesecake and Maple, too 😀
Enjoy 🙂
