Swatches: All of my NYX Reds...Feeling the Bloody Reds!!! (Pic heavy)

Just to show you quick swatches all of my red NYX round lipsticks.

I don't really believe that reds are only suited for certain types of skin tone or skin color because I've seen people of different skintone and color pull off reds beautifully. I've also tried red lipsticks with warm undertones and with blue undertones and I think anyone (with great confidence) could pull it off.

So here are my swatches: (sorry for the picture quality)

SNOW WHITE

Natural light:

w/ Flash:

it may look kind of bright in the picture, but personally it is the darkest red among the 4 NYX red round lipsticks. it almost look like a bit burnt blood (sorry for the morbid description, I've had too many laboratory experiments) red in the tube. It is a cream, semi-matte with no shimmer or glitter which is great!

ELECTRA

Natural light:

w/ flash:

Almost the same as Snow White, but this is a teeny weeny bit lighter than Snow White. It almost look like a "fresh sample of blood" red in the tube...great description for the up coming Halloween (even though we don't celebrate it.) Again, this is a cream, almost matte, with no shimmer or glitter.

Both of them are (for me) the "TRUE BLOOD REDS" of the whole NYX round lipstick collection.

EROS

Natural light:

W/ flash:

artificial light:

This is the brightest red out of the 4. It has a warm, orange-y undertone which gives this red its brightness or what others call it "the pop". It has very, very tiny shimmers that is really not noticeable on the lips. It only gives an illusion of a shiny, with a very small hint of metallic finish to the lips (which doesn't look tacky).

CHAOS

Natural light:

w/ flash:

artificial light:

this lipstick has quite an interesting bluish red shimmer in the tube making it look like it has a berry or blue undertone to it. The shimmers are very fine and it gives like a dewy, metallic finish red with bluish undertones to the lips which again is not tacky-looking.

I really enjoyed swatching all of these babies which makes all of them my favorites!
