Review -- NYX Butter Gloss in Peaches and Cream & Cherry Pie

When it comes to lipgloss, I don't mind a sticky formula.

That's because a sticky gloss usually has pretty good staying power -- and I don't mind putting with some stickiness if it means I won't have to keep applying my gloss all day long.

(Well, I don't mind the stickiness until the wind picks up and keeps throwing my hair in face so it sticks to my lips like glue.  Then I absolutely, completely hate it.)

However, if there's a gloss that isn't at all sticky *and* can last a good long while, then I'm all over it. 

That's exactly what you get with the NYX Butter Glosses.

 These babies aren't sticky at all -- they're smooth and creamy, actually -- but the formula has enough thickness to it that the gloss winds up staying on your lips for quite a while.

Now, don't get me wrong -- they're still a gloss so they won't last all day.  But you don't have to keep reapplying like you would with most non-sticky glosses. 

I can get an hour and a half to two hours of wear out of the Butter Glosses, which is pretty impressive in my book.

They feature a doe foot applicator and are actually pretty opaque.  While you could layer them over a lipstick, I usually wear these all on their own because they color payoff is so good.

I purchased the glosses in Peaches and Cream & Cherry Pie.

In the grand tradition of NYX's completely baffling, totally off the mark shade names, Peaches and Cream isn't really peach at all.  It's really more of a mid-tone bright pink.

Cherry Pie is actually a fitting shade name -- the gloss is a nice, bright cherry red shade.

I absolutely love these glosses.  In addition to the smooth feel, long wear time, and opaque color, they have a yummy, kind of bakery inspired scent (it fits with all of the pastry-themed shade names) that  is delightful.  And they're nice and budget-friendly -- they're $4.99 at my local Ulta, but I think I purchased them during a BOGO-half off sale so they were an even better deal.

I will absolutely be buying more of these in the future. Creme Brulee and Eclair, in particular, are calling my name...
