As much as I love experimenting with my lip color, I seem to stockpile shades of pink and nude. It doesn’t matter that I have an entire drawer of lipstick in these shades, it’s always the color I buy when trying a new line. Do you do this, too?
This became very clear when I was searching for a shade of orange, which is way underrepped in my makeup bag, but the color I’m feeling for spring. Before I got too spendy with this NARS pencil, I tried NYX Butter Gloss in Peach Cobbler to make sure I could even pull it off. And then I bought two more tubes (naturally in my go-to palette – I can’t help myself) because ohmygosh this is a great lip gloss AND it costs $5. It’s not the least bit goopy or sticky and wears comfortably. With more than 20 colors to choose from —- including some daring shades of purple and red, there are options to get you out of your comfort zone for the price of a latte.
I give these a major stamp of approval! And I also give myself permission to pick up this.

Every time I go to Ulta I pick up that color and then put it back. One of these days I’ll get it!
Ooooooooo! That orange is perfect! I’ve heard how great these NYX glosses, but I wasn’t totally convinced till I saw this shade on you. What’s the sticky factor of these, Laurie? That is often a deal breaker for me! 🙂

Hi Katie! Thanks:) They are really not sticky at all and have a similar scent to the MAC lip glass (ya know, the vanilla-ish one?)
Thanks, Laurie!!! That’s great about the scent and the low sticky factor.

For an organic alternative I love Vapour Siren Beauty Lipstick in Tempest (or Pin Up for a lighter orange) Vapour Beauty Plumping Gloss in Tease, and Vapour Aura Multi Use Lip and cheek stain in Crave – use just one or layer all three. All available on our webstore – and we have samples as well. dana of balancebeautyandhealth.com

I love that color on you! And definitely using this idea for testing out new colors.
Nice! Coral looks great on you!
NYX has such great lip products! I really love their Mega Shine Lipgloss in Natural; it’s the prettiest “your lips but better,” color. And the best thing is that it smells like tootsie roll pops 🙂 Do these glosses have a scent?

You can DEFO rock the orange, Laurie! It looks kind of amazing with your baby blues! They are color wheel opposites so you may have discovered a look here that will have you looking smashing all spring and summer! I guarantee you so many people will comment on your eyes when you’re wearing this orange shade! I love a good NYX Butter Gloss. I think I have Bavarian Fudge Doughnut. I’m sure that’s the name. 😉 All I know is it’s pink and smells divine!
