Australis Velourlips Matte Cream

Possibly couldn't rave about this product enough! I'm in love, these lip colours are amazing, they stay on for hours, even after eating. The colours are gorgeous, vibrant and on trend. Such easy application, its almost impossible to go wrong! Only thing I don't like is the range! I wish there were more than 5 colours

I have tried two shades of this and was not a fan. They flaked on me, and also I did not enjoy the 'velvet' feel of them on and felt as though my lips were furry or mossy!! Not a feeling I enjoy.

I love my velour lips , it stays on for the whole day without budging. There are only 2 downsides: 1) they are VERY drying on the lips, you wouldn't be able to wear them everyday but they are good for a once a week type colour 2) there is not much of a colour range and some of the colours are a bit strange. the pigment is however amazing!!

I saw Shaaanxo use the red shade in a makeup tutorial probably about a year ago and thought the matte texture and intense colour really made her lips pop, and put it on my "future to buy list"

About six months ago I saw the orange and the pink shade at Kmart, and was slightly scared off by the fluorescent pink, but talked myself into buying the orange because it was affordable and I'd never owned an orange lipcolour before.

Tried it out before going out drinking with friends that evening, was very happy with the texture, the colour and staying power. It didn't flake off, but it did come off slightly with beers- I've found since that drinks with straws eliminate this problem completely!

Since purchased the red and pink shades, and was pleased to find they both suited me too. Wanting to purchase the purple next.

Only real issue I had was with the orange shade- it doesn't appear to be as pigmented as my pink or red, and I usually need a second coat on my lips. However, I have to wait for the first coat to set completely first, otherwise I find it has a tendency to flake off or clump together when I try to add a second layer. Nothing a bit of patience can't fix, for my favourite bright colours to wear out.

I purchased two shades (nude and coral…can't remember the names of them) and they are to die for! They are very richly pigmented and long lasting. The smell is so good, you could almost eat it! Im a huge fan of matte lipsticks and I'm so impressed by these. Would choose these over the Lime Crime matte lipstick i have, any day!!

This is a great product as it is extremely long wearing and doesn't budge throughout the day or during a night out. However, it feels very drying on your lips but is easily fixed by popping some clear lip balm over the top. One other minor disadvantage is that there is not a very big colour selection.

I was really surprised by this product, it had great, dense colour and a really nice finish with only one coat. It was a little dry feeling but that is to be expected with the matte finish. I have it in Par-ee which is a great 'Kylie' style of lip.

One of the longest-lasting lip products I've ever used. Without makeup remover there is no way you're getting these things to budge. They live up to their claims of not caking or flaking, but they are still too drying to use without exfoliating first and a good bit of lip balm after.

The main con is a lack of wearable everyday colours, as they seem to lean to the extremes.

These are AMAZING! They dry completely matte meaning they will not budge. And I mean it. They do not move no matter how much you scratch, eat or kiss. The colour selection is beautiful and I believe they just launched some more colours! The downside of these though are that because they are matte, they are really drying. My lips literally cry after I wear these. They also bleed a little so make sure you line your lips beforehand!

I have this product in the purple colour. I really like the consistency when you apply it as it's really creamy before it sets to a matte finish. I love how this just makes my lips pop with colour. I wore mine to a 1950's inspired wedding and got compliments all night. I only had to reapply after eating a meal.
