FAQs
What colour is NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Antwerp exactly?
Antwerp (SMLC 05) is a dusty berry-brick shade with warm, earthy undertones. It reads as a muted burgundy-brown — richer and darker than a standard berry, with a sophisticated warmth that works across seasons.
Is Antwerp suitable for all skin tones?
Yes, though it shows differently on each skin tone. On lighter skin it creates a bold, high-contrast statement lip. On medium and deep skin tones it reads as a deep, sophisticated berry that appears more wearable for everyday use.
Does NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream dry out the lips?
No. Despite the matte finish, the formula is infused with conditioning ingredients that keep lips comfortable throughout wear. It is notably less drying than many traditional matte lipsticks.
How does Antwerp compare to other dark NYX city shades?
Antwerp is one of the warmer, dustier dark shades in the Soft Matte Lip Cream range. It is less cool-toned than a pure burgundy and less pink than a berry, sitting in its own warm brick-berry territory that is unique in the collection.
Can I use Antwerp as a liner and a lipstick?
Yes. The wand applicator offers precision enough to line the lips before filling in, making it a convenient all-in-one lip product.
