Buzzkill

NYX Buzzkill Liquid Suede Metallic Matte ($7.50 for 0.13 fl. oz.) is a bright, medium-dark fuchsia with cool undertones and flecks of sparkle over a satin sheen. It had semi-opaque pigmentation that applied fairly evenly, and the thin, moussy texture made it easy to spread the product across the lips without the color pulling into lip lines. It wasn’t particularly metallic, though. This shade wore well for six and a half hours and was lightly drying.

The formula is supposed to be “plush and vibrant” with a “pigment-rich” liquid consistency and an “ultra-metallic” finish. The majority of the shades were semi-opaque to opaque in color coverage with the consistency being fairly mousse-like, so the product felt lightweight and spread well but didn’t run or get on the teeth easily. Some shades were more metallic from the get-go while others seemed to get more metallic after rubbing or patting lips slightly. They dried down to a transfer-proof finish but felt ever-so-slightly tacky at times. Based on the shades I’ve tested for wear, they are lasting between five and seven hours and are lightly drying. Between the metallic finish and the dry down, sometimes they seemed to emphasize lip lines and lip texture.

Pure Society

NYX Pure Society Liquid Suede Metallic Matte ($7.50 for 0.13 fl. oz is a deep plum with subtle, warm undertones and a metallic sheen. It had good color payoff, though it was not opaque in a single layer. The liquid lipstick had a thin, mousse-like consistency that was airy and spreadable without being watery or overly fluid. It was easy to work with, but the dry down did seem to emphasize the texture of my lips slightly. This shade stayed on well for six hours and was lightly drying after five hours of wear.
