Australis Velourlips Matte Cream

its very much like the lime crime velvetines except much cheaper, alougth it appears to be very few colors atm they are still great

I love having my lips as the main feature when it comes to make up so I'm constantly wearing bright pinks and reds. I, like many others, received this free with a magazine I bought around the end of last year. I got a hot pink one called MA-LI-BOO and I absolutely love it. It has such a creamy texture and you don't need to apply a lot otherwise it looks like you've poured the whole container on haha. A little goes a long way when it comes to this matte lip cream. I loooooove this cream and I would definitely get more and recommend to a friend.

The only downside of Australis Velourlips Matte Cream is that because it's a matte colour, it shows all the cracks in your lips and doesn't look nice close up. But this can be avoided by applying lip balm on before using the cream. OR you can put a nude or light pink (depending on the shade of cream you have) and put a layer of it over the top. This should make the cracks leave and you should be left with smooth creamy lips.

I had to hunt this baby down. Funnily enough the life pharmacy in my neighborhood had a whole stock of them. (I had been searching in farmers mostly) I purchased the bright red colour as to be honest, none of the others really appealed to me! I was blown away how pigmented these were. I made sure I prepped my lips well. Exfoliated then popped on a nice hydrating lip balm before applying. I wore it to work and received a number of compliments from the lads in the office which was nice! It lasted through my two coffees, morning tea and lunch before I needed a tiny touch up. So I was very very impressed. They are drying though so I doubt this will get much use in the winter when my lips tend to dry out.

This is incredibly drying so you probably need to exfoliate and prime lips beforehand. I found that it cracked regardless, but this may be as i have lips that tend to dry over the day. It is easy to apply and dries very quickly, you just have to work fast

Another addition to the matte cream lipstick market! I love some of the shades but dislike others as the formula seems to differ a bit between shades. My favourites (for shade and formula) are the purple and bright pink. The orange, in my opinion, is quite unwearable and wouldn't suit many people.

Love the colours but they dry out your lips so much :( colours start to crack and flake if you apply more than one coat... Prefer other matte lipcreams.

Quite good staying powder and a creamy formula that is slightly drying. Pigmentation is amazing though. Would reccommed to all though for the price and quality

This is just like paint for your lips! It just does not budge of your lips once its dried fully.

I got the purple and the coral/orange colours and I love the both but saying that they are very out there and I would only really ever use them for like a dress up party or a really out there stress up night!

The consistency varies between to the two colours I have. Im not quite sure why that is, I have heard this is right for all the different colours it comes in.

The bright almost neon purple is very creamy and think so one layer is enough. while the coral/orange is milky and thin and a few layers to get the perfect lip is needed. But make sure you let every layer dry fully before applying another, but it dries super fast.

If you get any bleeding/or go out side the lines don't count on easy removal. This product dries super fast and wont budge unless you use makeup remover. Which is good for nights out.

It is a true matte and will dry with a extremely matte finish. It not for people that get dry lips easy due to the matte finish drying your lips out even more.

Maybe the hip of this got a little too much for me. Its okay, the consistency is great and the smell is amazing but with the consistency its easy to over apply which makes it prone to cracking. Its quite drying so a lip balm is a must. I have the shade pa-ree and if you have an olive/tan skin tone like me, it can wash you out. This doesn't go well with food and drink, you're only gonna wear this if you're going to the supermarket, because you can't just reapply, you have to remove the whole thing if you wanna reapply
