Nykaa Chocolate Truffle: I’ve always bought various reputed products on nykaa.com but this time when I was on a hunt to buy the perfect brown lipstick, Nykaa came out with their range So Matte Nude Lipstick range, I decided to try out Nykaa as a brand.
Price
Rs. 399/- for 4.2g
How to use
After reading this handful by nykaa.com, I think it’s pretty clear how to apply the lipstick. But the tip is very pointed for precision. I’ve never applied a lipstick inside the lines ever and this lipstick helped me keep it clean and avoid the concealer.
My experience with Nykaa So Matte Lipstick Chocolate Truffle
Since it was only for Rs. 399, I found it in the price range of most commercial lipsticks. Nykaa also offered shades that I’d never seen before. For the first time, nudes meant a color for your skin tone. And the versatile shades are a plus.
I’m also a little peeved because I was hoping for a darker brown, but it does look like I’ve just eaten a chocolate truffle if that’s any consolation. The application is smooth and precise; it took me all but two seconds to apply the lipstick.
It’s also not very matte. It’s more on the crème side and that’s a shame because Nykaa is promoting it as so matte.

Overall would I repurchase and recommend?
I would definitely recommend. If you want the perfect brown shade, Nykaa is the way to go. They also have a range of pinks and reds. I’m going to buy them all.
