Australis Velourlips Matte Cream

Wow these are so pigmented! I have them in 4 colours my favourite is Par-ee, its just the perfect nude colour. When using the product have to exfoliate my lips first then put a lip balm on wait for that to absorb then apply the velourlips. The product can be very drying otherwise. It stays on really well and lasted the day. Very affordable and lots of colours to choose from.

My friend had sung the praises of this product, she owns them in almost every colour. I was quite disappointed. I like the colour and the matte-ness but I found the the cream made my lips feel dry and cracked.

This product have really nice colour and smells really nice but it make my lips dry!!! It stay quite long and kiss proof. I would not recommend it if you have dry lips.

Velourlips is life. I apply prior to going out and i don't even have to reapply. ITS GREAT! it's a bit sticky prior to drying, but once dry, its all go. I tend to reapply about ever three hours - to enhance the colour. i was nervous to use these at first, but now i'll never look back.

This has got to be the BEST lip colour out. Not only is there a HUGE range of different shades, but it gives the best matte look and is very easy to apply. The absolute best point to make about this lipstick though is that is stays on for such a long time. The longest lasting lippy I have tried!

So I purchased the purple one to ki o I think was, was such a beautiful vibrant colour and I loved how bright it was, but applying it wasn't the easiest ( maybe it was just me ) but was quite messy and difficult it had to be perfectly outlined etc, I also found it dried out on my lips and looked very yuck and flaky I had to wash off :(

I own the shades par-ee, shang-hi and bada-pash.

First of all, I love the colour range of the velourlips, with a range of colours from nudes to nice deep shades. They also seem to be constantly expanding on this range.

However, this is where the positives end for me. I am no stranger to applying liquid lipsticks and found that buda-pash applied extremely patchy. Also, I found that shang-hi seemed to emphasize all the fine lines on my lips (I even trialed wearing a lip balm underneath to see if this may help).

I think it is a stretch to say that the velourlips are long-wearing. For liquid lipsticks I usually like them to survive transfer, drinking and eating tests (to a certain extent). I found shang-hi and buda-pash transferred quite badly and faded a bit even with drinking water.

I also do not believe the no caking or flaking claim as the velourlips seem to flake on my lips. I also found them quite drying.

Overall, I think there are better liquid lipsticks out there or even normal matte lipsticks that are more moisturising and long-wearing.

OK so. The price is good. The colours are very good. They apply great. They look stunning. But after a few hours, as soon as you move those lips the product flakes off. If your wanting a lip colour that looks great in photoshoots or videos or for an event that's a few hours then this is for you. But if your wanting an all day long lasting lip then you've come to the wrong place.

This product is amazing. I always get complements when I wear it and have a lot of friends who now wear it too. It is super pigmented and really doesn't budge. The pop of colour from the great range of colours is awesome. Just be sure you have smooth lips first before applying.

Since I was lucky enough to trial the Candylipz lip plumper I have been buying more lipsticks than ever and once upon a time matte lipsticks were the biggest no-no. They made my lips look like little caterpillars, complete with the lines. Matte lipsticks were and are very unforgiving, so I did tread with caution while purchasing this one and didn't get my hopes to high.

I purchased this from lovemymakeup and it arrived the next day, I purchased the colour noo-d fighters, which as the creative name would suggest is a nude colour. A perfect pink-brown, it's part of the metallic addition so it has shimmer through it and I am so in love with it.

The scent! Yes I am obsessed with this scent it took me ages to figure out the scent, it reminded me of my childhood then i suddenly had a light bulb moment.. It smells like grape hubba bubba, the scent lasts for an hour before fading away thank goodness because it makes me hungry.

It is of course matte so I make sure my lips are moisturised a lot before applying it. This comes in a tube with a doe foot applicator and it is so easy to apply. It takes about 3 swipes to get the right depth of colour and then wait as it dries which is only a couple of minutes. Once dried i love it, this pink brown colour with the shimmer is perfect, I was worried it could have had a bit of a frosted look with all the shimmer or a bling blinging disco ball but the balance is perfect.

This lasts 6 hours plus even through eating and drinking it barely budges. It is very drying though even when I do apply a mountain of lip balm first. But the colour and no budging is worth the dryness for me, I love this and want more especially in the metallic range.
