About brand:

Product description:

Neither lipstick nor lip gloss, this Mattee lip cream is a new kind of lip color that goes on silky smooth and sets to a Mattee finish. Soft Mattee Lip Cream is surprisingly durable and, unlike some Matte lipstick formulas, also moisturizing.

The NYX Lip Creams are packaged in a standard lip gloss tube with a matte black cap. It has the product description and ingredients mentioned on it.  It comes with a doe foot applicator which helps in applying the lip cream evenly.

I got it from the Instagram store called cosmatica.in .

MAY CONTAIN / PEUT CONTENIR (+/-): Mica, Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Iron Oxides (CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499), Manganese Violet (CI 77742), Yellow 6 Lake (CI 15985), Yellow 5 Lake (CI 19140), Red 6 (CI 15850), Red 7 (CI 15850), Red 28 Lake (CI 45410).

Product description:

• The texture of this cream is a bit velvety with a silky sheen to it, but it settles down perfectly into a matte finish.
•  Once it has set into a matte finish, the lip color does not budge or fade for hours.
• As with any matte lip product it's important to exfoliate and moisturize lips before application. 
• It is highly pigmented and a single coat gives you an opaque finish.
• It lasted for 5-6 hours for me with light snaking.
•  It will flake if your lips are too dry but that situation can be handled by putting a lip balm underneath your lipstick.

Pros:

• Travel friendly packaging
• Worth the price
• Highly pigmented
• Has lovely scent
• Lasts really long
• Creamy texture
• Transfer proof
• Matte finish

Cons:

• It can highlight imperfections on dry or chapped lips.
