NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Cannes is described by NYX as a matte muted mauve. I’d generally disagree with that, although I guess it depends on the undertone of your skin and natural lip colour. From the swatch I can see why they might have said mauve, but on the lips it is more of a mid-toned rosy brown with a reddish undertone. Exfoliate your lips prior to application to ensure they're super-smooth (and slightly plumped). Use the doe-foot applicator for a seamless application, allowing the first coat to dry for five minutes, before applying your second - you can build coverage or layer different shades to achieve the desired finish.

As you can see, Cannes is deeper and more reddish, whereas Zurich is lighter and peachier. Each NYX Lip Cream has a doe foot applicator so that application can be kept neat and precise. I have found that from the NYX Lip Creams I have bought so far, they have buildable coverage, and it is best to reapply during the period between application and dry down as they remain creamy and blendable for about five minutes. Upon application they have a slight vanilla scent, but it’s nothing overpowering and disappears almost as soon as they dry down. Both Soft Matte Lip Creams fade evenly throughout the day and last for around 4-5 hours on the lips before they need to be reapplied. NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Cannes

Cannes is quite a rosy pink colour on me, but on someone with a deeper skin tone, I could imagine it being the perfect “my lips but better” shade. NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Zurich
