NYX Chic Round Lipstick
NYX Chic Round Lipstick

NYX Chic Round Lipstick ($3.99 for 0.14 oz.) is a light-medium, subtly yellow-toned pink with a soft, frosted finish. It had semi-opaque color coverage with a light translucency that enabled some of the natural lip color to come through. This shade wore three hours on me, which is shy of average. It was neither drying nor hydrating. Urban Decay Naked (P, $22.00) is darker, less frosted. Urban Decay Native (P, $22.00) is a bit lighter, less frosted. Revlon Pink Lemonade (P, $7.49) is sheerer. NYX Blush (P, $4.00) is less frosted, warmer. MAC Flamingo (LE, $15.00) is slightly warmer. See comparison swatches.

NYX Paparazzi Round Lipstick ($3.99 for 0.14 oz.) is a light-medium, subtly cool-toned pink with a creamy, luminous sheen. It had mostly opaque color coverage, and it wore well for three and a half hours. The consistency of this was quite creamy, and I found if you pressed your lips together, light lines would show. It was neither drying nor hydrating. Too Faced Razzle Dazzle Rose (P, $21.00) is similar. Urban Decay Obsessed (P, $22.00) is similar. Le Metier de Beaute Fiji (P, $32.00) is darker. See comparison swatches.

Please keep discussion on-topic, and if you have general feedback, a product review request, an off-topic question, or need technical support, please contact us!

Please help us streamline the comments' section and be more efficient: double-check the post above for more basic information like pricing, availability, and so on to make sure your question wasn't answered already. Comments alerting us to typos or small errors in the post are appreciated (!) but will typically be removed after errors are fixed (unless a response is needed).

We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

I know this is unrelated but my mom is giving me NYX Addis Ababa lip creme today as a reward for losing 18 pounds and I’m so excited!!! Nyx products can be so great!

Are you still wearing the Guerlain pressed meteorites powder you mentioned not long ago? Just wondering because in all the swatch posts recently I can’t help thinking that you’re skin looks awesome! (Love the color of these lippies too!)

That’s always been my problem with nyx lipsticks, especially chic. The formula is just so slippery and it just migrates all around my lips and it always annoyingly ends up on my teeth. I just had to give up on it.

I’ve wanted Revlon Pink Lemonade for some time, but haven’t had much luck tracking it down, so Chic may have to do for now. Blush is another one I may need to try, too! I typically wear lip balm due to the feel, but I’m loving the way these lipsticks wear. The lighter shades are sooo easy!

I have honestly never considered NYX lipsticks, which is crazy talk since I love their lip liners, blushes, and more. I especially love that chic round shade. It’s like the perfect true pink shade! Definitely will have to look at these next time at Ulta.

I love that you are reviewing some of NYX’s products. Do you foresee any more eyeshadow palette reviews for NYX in the future? There are so many I would like to try, but am reluctant without a review first.

I don’t have anything on the horizon! I do have really, really old shots I took of them, but anything that’s that old is on the backburner (aka when I have time go back through folders of photos I’ve taken of products I’ve tested but aren’t really recent!).

I love the shades NYX comes out with but absolutely detest the smell, taste & texture of ALL their lip products. I just can’t wear them any longer than 5 minutes without wanting to throw up. Wish I could because I’d be buying them by the boatload! I bought several of every type they had at IMATS & ended up having to toss all of them 🙁
