Colourpop X Hello Kitty Ultra Matte Lip (Ribbon)

This color is beautiful and I love it so much I bought a back up for that reason and also because it was part of the Colourpop X Hello Kitty collab, when the color was released it was released in a bundle and I didn't want to purchase the bundle which included a eye shadow and a blush that I knew would not be flattering on my skin. So when the finally released the lippie as a separate I jumped on it. The formula is Ultra Matte, however I am going to say that that this formula feels more like their Ultra Satin's as far as texture and wearability, and because it transferred onto literally everything. Because of this you will get 4 to 5 hours max if you don't get frustrated and remove it first. On the upside the product goes on opaque with one application. Paid $6.00USD

Colourpop Ultra Matte Lip Lychee & Privacy Please

 Colourpop's ultra mattes in Lychee and Privacy Please both seem similar

but give different applications. Privacy Please dries down to a more heavy opaque finish and Lychee's has a more of a sheer finish, but is a very beautiful color on deep skin tones. $6.00 +Colourpop Fun

Colourpop Super Shock Cheek Highlighter: Over The Moon

 This duocrome highlighter is super cute and pretty. Sorry pictures do it no justice. 

It packs a lot of pink and violet sparkles and I'm sure would be blinding in certain lighting. Take caution when applying this cream to powder to the cheeks with your fingers because it will transfer and does not budge once applied. Great glitter pay off and longevity for face, eyes, and body. $8.00USD.

Swatch Out! Colourpop Ultra Matte Lip (Notion)

 Notion is a deep plum color. That is not too dark which I love. Perfect for fall.

This color dries down a little slower than the other ultra matte lips and also tends to transfer a little bit, but it may be the color formula, because I have the same issue with their ultra matte lip More Better. Perfect for all skin tones. $6.00USD

Colourpop Ultra Mattes: Drive In, Avenue, Kae

 

 Drive In- Violet

Avenue- Brick Red

Kae-Terracotta

All three of these colors are great. Kae is a slightly lighter version of Colourpop's Limbo, but the colors are very similar. Avenue is a brick red and reminds me of Lime Crimes Wicked velvetine but Wicked is deeper in tone. Still it is a close dupe. Drive In is a bright pink violet that is a dupe for Lime Crime's Utopia velvetine, which you will find helpful to know seeing as Colourpop has recently discontinued this color. These Colourpop's ultra matte liquid lip colors are long lasting, pigmented and affordable at just $6.00 each. 

Pros: No smell or taste, affordable.

Cons: Online only.

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.
