Jeffree Star Velour Liquid Lipstick (Rich Blood)

Jeffree Star Cosmetics Rich Blood Velour Liquid Lipstick

PROS: I have had this color for awhile now. I ordered it on the first release and I am glad I did. Although it is not as sparkly as I would hope from most metallic liquid lipsticks it doesn't disappoint. It is a deep cherry red with some metallic reflects in it's mist and it is also matte finish like all the other colors in the liquid lipstick collection and I love that. It is a great holiday color, or if you are just going on a night on the town. Because of it's semi sparkle sheen. I would not deem this color safe for work, as it is more of a party or date night lip color. Unlike it's predecessor Red Rum, which is perfect for day, night or whatever. $18.00 USD Jeffree Star Cosmetics

CONS: This color is not as opaque as the other colors in this collection, this may be because of the formula. Also this color does transfer a bit and the longevity is not as I expected for the price. This is the reason for the low score in pigmentation and longevity. However the shipping was fast and overall I am not disappointed in this purchase, mainly because I do not have a color like it in my collection. 

Swatch Out! Colourpop Ultra Matte Lip Color: Limbo

 Review

I love colourpop's ultra matte lip formula and the awesome affordability at $6.00 each. This color is sexy and bold. However the color is not so deep on my skin tone that it appears vampy. I am surprised that it is now a favorite of mine, considering that I have always shy'd away from brown lipsticks because they appear washed out against my skin tone. The liquid lipstick formula, goes on wet and dries down very quickly to a non transferable matte finish, that last for hours on end. I can wear it through my 8 hour work shift only retouching my inner lips after eating lunch. Perfect. (Rating) 5 out of 5. 

Suitable for fair to deep tan skin tones.

FYI

*Close lip tube tightly after use.

*The Colourpop branding on tube will rub off after a couple uses. 

*Use makeup remover or makeup remover wipes to remove.

Review

I'll start with the positives, which is the price and amount of product you get for under $10.00. The longevity of this product is fair, as it will wear for a long while as long as you don't eat or drink anything between that time. The colors are bold and dry down to a matte finish pretty quickly. Careful when applying, some colors may go on patchy or uneven. I found this to be the case with Backstage, (see dry swatch below). I did not have this issue with Frisky or Tulle. The packaging is that of a large lip gloss and it comes with a flat sponge tip applicator for easy application. Once applied to the lips it does not get sticky or tacky before drying like some of the more pricey liquid lipsticks that are on the market.  Since I am a fan of "Red" liquid lipsticks. Frisky is a dupe for Lime Crime's "Red Velvet" Velvetine and Jeffree "Star's Red Rum" Velour Liquid Lipstick.

 Review

I really like this lipsticks color and formula. It is easily to apply because of it's large applicator and the color dries quickly. Does not rub off or smudge. Not as bright a red as Lime Crime's Red Velvetine, but still pretty non the less. My favorite part is the packaging of course, the shipping was fast and everything was packed nicely. $18.00 USD +jeffreestar Buy It Here
