Australis Velourlips Matte Cream

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!!

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 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 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.

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 love love love the shade Ny-Cee. A beautiful red that stays on for an entire night. It is very drying so would suggest you apply a balm before. Once applied it instantly dries to a matte color and doesn't transfer or move. Highly recommend!

Everyone's been raving about this, so I really wanted to love this product. I have tried and worn all the shades, and the positive I can say about them is the lovely velvet-y matte finish and the staying power - it definitely lasts a whole night! However, none of the colours really work for me - I'd love to see these in some darker/more wearable colours, like browns and plums, like Lime Crime has done. Also, the matte finish means these can look and feel a bit dry. They are also super pigmented, which is idea for night but not necessarily for daytime or work.

i love the colour that they come in! my favourite is maliboo, which i wear quite often. i find them very pigmented and once they are dry they are perfect for night out as its stays put no matter what. but i do find that after a while without reapplying that my lips do dry out very fast.

I got the Australis velourlips in the colour mal-i-boo free with a magazine. I had only heard about velourlips on one of the Facebook beauty pages , but in saying that i hadn't really thought about buying them. Im glad i didn't spend my actual money on it. So many people love these but for me Mal-i-boo is a hard colour to pull off being a bright matte pink and defiantly is not my colour, the packaging is girly and simple. The consistency is thick , fast drying and the smell is very sweet like candy!The actual product just did not work for me , no matter how i applied the product with the doe foot applicator which may i add was very easy to use, it just looked cakey then started flaking after around five minutes ! What really annoyed me was when i put more on it cracked and flaked off my lips even more and just looked so yuck that i had to wipe it off ! Im unsure of the reason it looked so yuck maybe it was because i have quite dry lips. Although i did use a lip scrub and lip balm before hand and it still didn't help. I have thought about repurchasing the nude colour but i don't think it would be worth it just in case it did the same thing as Mal-i-boo. I really wanted to love this product but sadly i did not :( Although i didn't like it , i have a friend who has all the colours and loves them so i would recommend to a friend as it may have just been my lips.

I only found out about these a few weeks ago and I already own too many. thea are 5 in the range and I want them all! they stay on so well and are easy to fix lines up with damp tissue paper. colours are so mind blowing
