I have purchased quite a few of the colors in the NYX Sparkling Diamond Collection and I absolutely love them! The color doesn't last very long but I don't mine reapplying as theday goes on. If you are a matte girl then you wouldn't like this at all. Very creamy and goes on the lips easily and no patchiness. Lots of shine though : )

I like this lipstick a lot. The gold microglitter warms up my nc15/nc20 complexion a lot. It isn't gritty and it isn't so frosty or shimmery that it looks tacky. it's a great light pink lipstick for someone who wants a little shimmer.

A nice pink that isn'tt too intimidatingPrice: $4.47 CADPkg: square tube, clear topColour: light rosy pinkFinish: almost sparkly shimmerPigmentation: mediumTexture: creamyI tend to go for darker or brighter colours. The reason why it works for me is because of its pigmentation, or lack thereof. The semi-sheerness works for me as I do not want to look like Barbie

Love the texture and feeling but I don't like this color. It is orange-ish red on my lips. It is super super frosty. It looks nice and is really heavily pigmented. Very non-drying, they are moisturizing and feel nice on lips. They last for hours and still look great hours later. Would totally repurchase, in other shades.

This is my first Diamond Sparkle lippie from NYX, and let me tell you, as soon as I got my Cherry Culture package and tried this little baby on my lips, I fell in love at the first swipe. I have a good selection of NYX Round Lipsticks in my makeup drawer, but I think I've been converted into buying the Diamond Sparkles from now on. I never really understood the clean soapy plastic smell of the Round Lippies, but these have a rather appealing light scent. I can't quite put my finger on it, but it's somewhat sweet (not cloying though, just subtle).Sparkling Flamingo is a beautiful neutral-ish baby pink with subtle gold sparkle. What I love about it, is that it doesn't look frosty, but has more of a gleaming glossy 'wet diamonds' effect on the lips, which is of course, more flattering than flat out white frost. And I was sooooo afraid that since this was a light color, that it would have that garish overpowering white frost, reminiscent of the '60s. But it is nothing of the sort. This does wonders to my NW15 skin tone, just a beautiful wash of color, without looking overdone. Now onto the formula. One word: BUTTERY. Not grainy or gritty in the slightest. Maybe not as creamy as the Rounds, but its pretty darn close. The formulation on these honestly could not be better. What's even better (and this came as a major shocker to me, considering what they are) is that these lipsticks are actually very moisturizing, and they don't dry out my lips at all. It wears about 4 hours on average for me. So, since all the factors are there, I have no reason NOT to give this product a 5/5. I will DEFINITELY be checking out more shades in this lineup.
