Australis Velourlips Matte Cream

I have been looking for a Matte lipstick in New Zealand that didn't cost too much as I wanted to see if it's something I would wear more often. I LOOOOVE this product. I bought 2 of the darker shades, Buda-Pash and Mo-zam-chic. I also bought the lip primer "All about that base" as I have read that its makes the lip color apply better without streaks. I am so glad I did. When i use the Matte lipstick without it, my lips are dry and the product applies patchy. I will most defiantly be buying more of the shades, maybe lighter to see if it wears a bit better as the darker shade does tend to be of a thicker consistency.

i love this product its Perfect for when you want lasting, matte colour that moves with your lips without flaking. i love how its creamy and lasts all day.

This is a nice creamy product that goes on well with its applicator. It's highly pigmented and lasts ages, it does everything you want a liquid lipstick to do. My ONLY issue (which is a big one for me) is that it is very drying on the lips, it can also start to crack throughout the day as your lips dry out (the cracking can easily be fixed by swiping on another layer of the lipstick). The price is wonderful, the colours are wonderful, but the drying aspect puts me off, I would definitely wear this product for a few hours but would not purchase as something to wear all day as it gets too uncomfortable on my lips.

I have brought a few of these over the last couple of years and for the price, they are ok. The colour and finish are nice, however I found they do seem to crack and dry out on my lips and after a few hours of wearing they begin to look abit ordinary. I think alot of matte lip creams do this though, especially the cheaper ones. They have a nice range of shades otherwise but I have found other brands to be alot better overall. I also don't like the smell of them much. Touching up using these lip creams is also a bad idea as they look terrible if you apply another coat over to tidy up where it has worn off, you basically have to start over. So overall they are ok, but nothing amazing here.

After trying one of these lip creams I was hooked and now own I believe most of them, some of them are minis.

I love that they are named after places in a cute way, the colours are amazing and none that I have tried are patchy, or have they left my lips stained once removed.

Very comfortable to apply, very creamy and dry down to keep matte all day only when eating oily foods do I find that they break down.

I honestly love this product. It really does what it said it would. It last longer and it is pigmented. The only thing I hate about this is, it's very sticky and feels weird on my lips.

The title speaks for itself...

I love this product for the incredible pigment... I mean seriously it's insane and this product does last well too. They also have a beautiful and diverse colour range, something for everyone.

Their may only be one downside to this product compared to the many positives but it's this one downside that keeps me reaching for other matte lipsticks vs. this one.

This lipstick dries out your lips like none other (in my personal experience).... I don't know, maybe I got one from a bad batch, maybe they've improved the formula (because I haven't been able to bring myself to buy another one) but whenever I wear this, it dries out my lips so badly and it does wear away in the middle of your lips quite quickly... but beware because if you dare put another layer of this overtop to touch up, you are fated to a terrible night of crunchy, dry, crumbly lips.

I want to love this.... and a part of me does but I just can't deal with how it makes my lips feel. I really should try another couple colours, maybe the formula has improved but with what I've tried I would rather choose a different matte lipstick then this.

first off these are quite overpriced, as i find the rest of the australis range to be for a "drugstore" company. It was an awful colour on and looked different from the package, it dried quickly which was good but settled into fine lines and cracks, smudged and flaked, wasn't flattering and the product dried up quickly as well! would not repurchase.

Australis Velourlips Matte Cream was the first matte lipstick I tried. It applies very nice and smooth and dries relatively quick. There are a good range of colors and the formula is so pigmented you only need one coat to get a great color payoff. There is no scent to this which is a good thing and does not give me an allegic reaction. Things I did not like : The matte cream was quite thin and streaky and was not buildable and cracked and was sticky after 2 coats.
