Love the color! The packaging is super cute, and the lipstick itself smells like grapes! However, I would recommend exfoliating your lips before applying, as this lipstick can emphasize chapped/cracked lips. Also, it applied unevenly so I had to go over my lips a few times to get an even coat. I later purchased NYX's Round Lipstick in Orange Soda, which looks almost exactly the same as this lipstick except that Orange Soda looks slightly more orange. As for the formulation, there is no apparent difference between Nude and Orange Soda. So, I think the only reason Nude is more expensive is because you're paying for the grape smell and cute packaging.

I have 2 black label lipsticks:Nude and Dusty Rose.
The packaging is very nice, better than i expected.
They smell pretty good .
And as for the price the are very cheap.

I found that the 2 colors have some differences.I love Dusty Rose but i don't like Nude. Nude makes my lips look dry,it does not dry out my lips it is quite creamy actually but, it just makes them look dry, i don't know why or how because Dusty Rose doesn't have that problem.It doesn't apply very well, it makes the lines on my lips look pretty ugly while Dusty Rose applies like a dream and makes my lips look perfect and not at all dry.

The color is nice but too light for me.I have a medium warm skin tone, dark brown hair and green-hazel eyes. I usually mix Nude with other lipsticks. Combined together the 2 make a very nice color. I would not buy Nude again but i will definitely buy Dusty Rose again.

Line: NYX Black Label Lipstick
Color: Nude 174
Finish: Cream
Opacity: Opaque
Staying power: No
Consistency: Slippery
Moisturizing: Yes
Would buy again: No

NYX Black Label lipsticks are the lipstick I've been most excited to try for a while. Reading many reviews and seeing the hype made me order two right away in the colors 'Dusty Rose' and 'Nude' since these seem to be the most popular.

Typically I am not a fan of NYX lipsticks due to the slippery-ness and the fact that they have no staying power. I'm sad to say that these lipsticks are no exception. They are very slippery and don't last.

I was really hoping the consistency of these lipsticks would be like MAC Satins which last for a very long time on my lips. Unfortunately, they are a nice moisturizing and slightly shiny finish that just simply does not stay on my lips.


The color of Nude is a peachy nude color. Sort of reminds me of MAC Myth in a more peachy tone. It is pretty as a color and I like it for that reason.


Love the packaging however! So pretty! The tubes are more squarish with a black top and lace pattern and the color of the lipstick is showing through at the bottom.

Oh well - NYX I really want to love your lipsticks they just frankly have no staying power.

COLOR: My lips are very pigmented so this wears as a pretty pale nude with pink undertones. May appear slightly different depending on skin tone and type. The hue can easily be customized by using a lip liner and/or gloss of your choice. This is a nude lip color that will flatter most, especially with gloss.
Perfect with smokey eyes :)
COVERAGE: Beautiful full opaque coverage with only one or two swipes, leaves an attractive satin finish on lips.
FEATURES: Applies smoothly with a luxurious feel, long wearing. True to the reputation of NYX Black Label, this feels/looks/wears like a luxury lipstick. No disappointments. Parlez-Vous, good deal ;)

This is a lovely lippy.
The packaging is sweet - black and classy looking and I prefer these square tubes to the round collection.
It also has a nice light fruity taste to it once applied.
It moisturises your lips once applied - in one swipe!
The colour - a nude is so vibrant looking and yet when you apply it's a nude. It leans to more of an orangey nude where as Miners nude is more of a yellow nude.
I deffo prefer the shade of the nyx.
It goes well with my newly dyed black hair :)
In general I think this is a shade that will suit everyone.
at £2 a pop (on sale) you can't go wrong. Nab em when they are on offer girlies.

Great creamy, moisturing formula. Looks pretty terrible on me though - I have to either use it reeeally lightly or use it with another colour. It is just too light for my skintone (medium-ish skintone). But as that is really not a fault of the product, I have still given it a good rating.
Smells divine.

From Australia and bought this Nude lipstick from NYX off crushcosmetics.com because its not sold locally. Its a very peach-nude lipsitck. Satin/creamy finish. I apply it lightly and blend it into the lip, therefore application without a mirror is unattainable. If applied with a heavy hand you'll have an obvious line look v.tacky. Its a moisturising formula but as any light lipstick, chapped lips will show up poorly.
Pros: Nice colour, moisturising, CHEAP
Cons: Bulky packaging, the lipstick name is on the lid rather than the bottom (accidentally took both Nude and India's lids off at the same time and forgot which was which), sickly sweet smell, cant apply without mirror

Delicious scent, non-drying formula, EPIC SHADE for a damn good price! Just so EVERYONE knows, this is LITERAL, I don't even use the word dupe unless it's replica, but. This is a total exact DUPE for Lime Crime Makeup's nude shade, 'Coquette.' This formula is actually a lot better, but you wouldn't ever differentiate the two on the lips, except that this could maybe have a slight more sheen, which this isn't a really shiny lipstick so it's pretty much exact. So if you've been wanting Coquette, save at LEAST $5-$7 and purchase this one. :)

I really like the colour and the texture. It does not dry out my lips and it lasts longer than II thought it would considering the price. But unfortunately it has a strong smell and while it didn't bother me in the beginning it really puts me off now. It's sweet and fruity but very artificial. I don't want that on my lips so I don't use it anymore. It's a shame because I really like the colour.

I was truly shocked when I first applied this on my lips, it was absolutely horrible and nothing like it seemed in pictures! It is very pigmented, peachy nude color and shows off like you've put plain paint on your lips. However, it's possible for me to make this work by applying it more lightly with a lipbrush, rather than straight from the stick. Still, wouldn't buy again.

This nude is similar to MAC cult favorites Myth and Creme de Nude. This one has less brown and more peach than Myth and reminds me of a old lipstick shade MAC used to make called Hush. Nudes tend to pull brown, gray or pink on me, but this one has just enough peach to look flattering. The texture of the BL lipsticks is also just as good as MAC. It is creamy, not too thick, very little sheen, so I add gloss. They really are much better than the round lipsticks; no strong chemical smell, more substantial formula. I'd like to get more of these lipsticks, its a shame they aren't sold at Ulta.

Nude - WAY too yellow for my skin..close to swatch now i think about it, but not what i was expecting from seeing photos of it on blogs. Very pigmented, but hard to get a nice even coat on lips even when blotted. ( for swatching i always remove a small amount off the stick and apply with brush from my hand ) Ugh...not a colour for my cool toned skin and pink lips. It looks very ochre yellow on my face.

This is a great pinky peach nude! I have tried alot of nude lippies and this one is quite amazing. It has no frost and is very opaque. It does not give you a corpse like look, but does impart quite a bit of color for a nude. You can't go wrong for $6! Love it!!

This is so pigmented. It covers my lips very well....I hate the natural color of my lips. It's a pinky nude on me...which I love because most nudes look brown on my lips. This is a perfect lipstick in my opinion.

This goes on really chalky and emphasizes every little flake. If you really rub it in with your finger afterward, it looks ok, but if you just smear it on from the tube it is a disaster. So very difficult to wear. There is a swatch in my profile, but I put a very small amount of the colour on, and really rubbed it in.

I will never buy another round lipstick.. They are a waste of money compared to these. Rich,full, creamy.. and a great shade. It's a nude with a touch of pink.
