NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream Monte Carlo & NYX Xtreme Lip Cream Absolute Red Comparison [Review]

Hello gorgeous!
So today i finally went to mall (WELL FINALLY) with my mom (heaven) *lol*
So, i really adore red lip recently and i decide to buy a lipstick but at the end, i bought three =_=
But... today I'm not gonna talk about what i bought in mall, I'll talk about red lipstick.. Well, not exactly lipstick, because its more like... lip gloss? No, Its Lip Cream from NYX!

I bet you already know about lip cream right? I want to have a dark-red lips so, i bought these gorgeous lip cream. These are two gorgeous lip cream colors

Sorry for the color... My room is quite dark, so i have to use flash and my dslr isn't here *sobs*
The one on the left is Soft Matte Lip cream - Monte Carlo and one on the right is Xtreme lip cream - absolute red

Two of them r actually has exact same colors.... almost...
But even though in flash the monte carlo's color is more like pinkish, the actual color is more red-ish than the absolute red ones.


The actual color without flash



Swatches
Upper : Monte Carlo
Below : Absolute Red

After I do this swatch, I assume that the XLC's one has thicker texture than the soft matte ones.
In my hand, the absolute red has darker color. But i love monte carlo's ones. 
Why? Lemme' show you how it looks on my lips.

Using Monte Carlo

Using Absolute Red


As you can see, the Xtreme Lip Cream gives a glossy finish and soft matte gives matte finish (obviously). In my lips, monte carlo's color is darker than the other ones.
But both products r still good! Eventho' i may use the soft matte for daily look.

This r overall look with the lip cream

Which one do you think is more gorgeous? After saw this pictures, i can't decide anymore XD
But, still... To daily look i prefer to wear the matte one, but if i look carefully... Absolute Red looks prettier ahahah (I'm so galau) 

===

I bought these 2 lip cream separately.
I bought the xtreme one in SOGO, Kelapa Gading Mall 
and I bought the soft matte one on INDOMAKEUP website

The price is not quite far...
In indomakeup, the price is Rp 88.000,- (around $7 ) plus the shipping cost, the total is Rp 103.000,- (around $8)... Its quite cheap and yes... i'm not regret it
When i bought directly to the store in Sogo, the price itself is Rp 100.000,- (around $8) 
Not include the transportation cost, eating cost, etc2. *lol*
But if we compare to that... the price isn't that far.... well, if i do walked to the store and didn't eat anything at all 

For Quality, 
both product r super easy to use and this product last longer than any lipstick or lip stain i've ever use...
Even after I swipe it and clean it with soap, dia ga pernah bener - bener bersih! Intinya ni lip cream aman di gunakan buat kegiatan seharian tanpa harus sering - sering touchup lipstick.

Well, what else?  I think thats all I can write for now,
the conclusion is... if you want to have darker red lips, use the absolute red-one.. but if you want to have a more... casual look use the matte one

Both products are good... if you really dunno which one do you have to buy... just buy those 2 lip cream *lol* thats really worth it!

okay... thats it
Thanks for watching
I hope this is helpful...

Love ya,
