A few months ago I posted a review with swatches on four of the new NYX Butter Lipsticks in Razzle, Hot Tamale, Big Cherry and Pops. Since I loved them so much, I decided to pick up a few more and placed an order on NYX’s website for Fizzies, Cotton Candy, Hubba Bubba, Hunk and Bit of Honey. After using these the last couple of months, I decided I would do some swatches in case anyone was interested in the shades I purchased… especially since when I ordered them, I expected them to be a bit different then how they arrived. Some of the shades were much lighter and darker than I had expected.
The butter lipsticks retail for $6.00 on NYX’s website and come in 22 shades. Just like I stated in my first review, the NYX Butter Lipsticks feel great on the lips and are moisturizing. But I think some of these shades feel a bit different on the lips and when it comes to coverage, the lighter shades seem to sink into the lines of my lips unlike the original four colors I tried out.
In the swatch photo above, you can see that Hubba Bubba has a slight frost to it – since it does have a light amount of shimmer in the lipstick. Because of this, I was a little disappointed at how my lips looked when I used this shade and I do not use it often. On the website – Cotton Candy and Hubba Bubba lend for a more wearable shade so I was surprised to see it so Barbie Pink when they arrived. I do like Fizzies, though it is not a shade I will use often – it does match my skin tone and Hunk and Bit of Honey are also ones I enjoy too.
Have you tried the NYX Butter lipsticks? While I do love some of these new ones I received, I think the only favorites out of this bunch would be Hunk and Fizzies. The others just seem too white for me to wear on its own… but hey, that is what gloss and liner is for. I’ll still find a way to make it work. If you want to see swatches on the other Butter lipsticks I reviewed – don’t forget to click here. If you tried any of these lipsticks and have favorites – please comment below and let me know, I would love to check them out and see if they will match me.
Have a wonderful week!

Beautiful shades! I have a few here that I picked up at Ulta, I think it’s time I tried them out!
Ooh – I can’t wait to see which ones you got and that you like… I’m so excited to see. Hurry and try them woman. lol 😉
HUNK looks gorgeous on you!!
thank you love 😉
I haven’t tried these, I am still stuck on the mattes, which I do love from NYX
Ooh – I love the mattes from NYX – tea rose is my favorite 🙂
Hunk and Fizzies look great on you! Those are the two I’d pick from your arm swatches, too!!
thank you Judy – I love those two, they are awesome. 😉
I love Hunk and Bit o’ Honey
I love hunk – my fav 🙂
I am going back and forth on these lipsticks. I will probably buy one or two, eventually but just from swatches, I am not sure which ones.
I wish I didn’t have to order them online, but none of my local stores have them. That is why I ended up with 2 shades almost completely similar and they don’t match me at all – the website colors are off. You would look so awesome in the red or orange… Hot Tamale or big cherry – I swatched in my older post. They would look so awesome on you 😉
I love the way Fizzies looks on you!
thank you Kat 😉
I love Hunk – it was the first butter lippie I bought. I think Fizzies is pretty, too, but the others are too light for me. You are the Queen of Layering, though – if anyone can make it work, you can! 🙂
Yes – the others are super light for me too…. lmao – yes, I am sure I can make it work. I like blending hunk with the pinks… it is nice 😉
Very pretty shades! Loving Fizzies!
they are and I am liking that one too 😉
Fizzies looks amazing on you!
I love that color – it is gorgeous for Spring and Summer 😉 thank you
These are just so durn buttery! I hope they continue to make more colors.
me too – I would love them to make a violet purple with pink hue… I have been dying to get a shade like that from my favorite brands. 😉
Those look gorgeous on you!
thank you Kelly 😉
Hunk is definitely my pick from the batch. It looks incredible.
it is one of my favorites… I tone it down a bit with a soft pink gloss but it is awesome regardless 😉
Oh wow… those shades are so pigmented!
they are really nice 😉
Hubba Bubba is very, very pretty! I love it!
it is such a sweet shade but I have to mix it with other shades so I don’t look ghostly. I think you would rock it out Kendra 😉
Fizzies is right up my alley ! So pretty and perfect for spring
it really is – I am enjoying it. 😉
I noticed the lighter shades are a bit harder to wear. To make them more wearable I blend them in with a darker lip liner.
they really are and I’m disappointed but I have been blending with lip liner and topping with gloss and it has worked. 🙂
Yes – it really is a good universal shade and I love that it is perfect for Spring and summer
Hunk is my win too 😉
Which 2 do you have? I wish it was easier to order them online… shipping from NYX is crazy to Hawaii.
Pigmented but moisturizing. I do love them for that and Hunk… ooh yes, that is a nice one. 😉
Hunk looks great on you!
thank you love – I think it’s my favorite.
