NYX Buttergloss! Peach Cobbler, Cherry Pie + Éclair Review/Swatches

I’m a massive fan of butter. No proper sandwhich fillings? More butter. Cooking something and it’s not coming together? More butter. Butter? More butter.

So, when NYX Butterglosses starting popping up online, I knew I’d have to try ’em. Mattes have their place in my heart, but I like something creamy for daily wear.

Put your mind at rest, they don’t smell like margarine. They’ve got a pleasant scent. It’s kinda like fruit, but more like fruit-scented chewy sweets. It’s mild, so shouldn’t get up your nose or linger too long after application.

Longevity is gloss-typical. If you eat or drink, it’s gone with the wind. Untouched, I’d give it a couple hours before you need to reapply. Nothing incredible, but don’t turn up on glossy street looking for the house of great wear time. It’s not gonna happen.

The texture is a cut above lots of chemist glosses. It’s light and creamy, really soft and comfortable. Yep, it’s a little sticky too, but it wouldn’t be the first thing you’d notice.

The only true red in the pink-heavy range. This was the most opaque of the three that I tried, and applied best – no streaking or collecting in lines. Tops!

Coral! My guy! This one is less orange than others in my collection, so is more flattering against imperfect teeth.

I feel like a little bit of its vibrancy is lost when you apply it over bare lips. When applied over lipstick or liner, it really packs a punch.

I’ve swatched this on bare lips so you can get a look at its true colour, but I’d never wear it alone by choice. Milky pink glosses can look streaky without a base, and Éclair doesn’t buck the trend.

If the shade catches your eye, go forth and pair it with something like MAC Snob lipstick – that’ll get rid of the patchy problem. It’s a pretty colour, so it’s worth going the extra mile.

Overall, I really like ’em. If you’re a gloss fan, these will slot into your collection nicely without breaking the bank.
