Gerard Cosmetics Lipstick Review

I only own the 1995 lipstick and it is awesome. It's more like a matte formula/ finish which means it lasts for hours.. I need to get more Gerard Lippys! 1995 is the also the perfect Kylie Jenner Lipstick!

Like many others I was very drawn to the ''Kylie Jenner" lip and had heard a lot of hype around Gerard Cosmetics and the '1995' lippy. Unfortunately I thought it was pretty hard to get my hands on it, so when I saw the website did direct shipping to NZ and were having a sale I decided to give it a try for myself.

I really like the packaging - the gold metallic casing may be plastic but it feels secure and well made and I like how it stands out amongst my other lippys.

The formula is a matte finish and longwearing, even holding up through drinking and light eating. I do find it a tad dry so I like to exfoliate before initial application, apply a lip balm and wait for it to set in before applying straight from the bullet.

1995 as a colour is everything I could have hoped for. A soft brown shade it's the perfect colour for everyday use and really does fit the 90s lip colour well. The formula is highly pigmented so one swipe is all you need but you can build the colour up to a darker shade of brown.

This is one of my most worn lippys and Id happily repurchase any of the Gerard Cosmetics shades.

After seeing all the hype of these lipsticks on Youtube from the likes of Jaclyn Hill, MannyMUA and Carli Bybel and also the amazing deals Gerard Cosmetics posted on their Instagram I decided I needed to try these out. I purchased 4 lipsticks in the shades Nude, 1995, Berry Smoothie & Rodeo Drive. The lipsticks are a matte formula but they are not too drying once applied on the lips. And I find they wear over a long period of the day and hardly need to touch up. They do transfer so you will find some colour payoff left on a glass after a drink but I don't notice that I need to touch up after having a drink. The one thing I want out of my lipstick is longevity and I think Gerard Cosmetic lipsticks do that for me, I love their staying power. I have never been a matte lipstick kinda girl as like many out there I can't stand dry lips but since wearing these for the last few months I have a new found love for matte lips. They are extremely pigmented and apply well with the way the product is shaped inside the bullet. I hope they release more shades in the near future.

First of all I have to say the packaging is amazing and the deals they comes out from this brand are never ending. I just want to get all the colours. I have 1995, Nude, kimchi doll and butter cream. 1995 is my favourite and butter cream second. 1995 is a sultry deep brown with a red undertone with my skin (yellow, warm undertones) and I think it makes me look more tan and stays on amazingly. I like buttercream next as it goes on so smooth and the best pinky nude colour I have come across. Kimchi doll is very similar to buttercream but much lighter. If you mix kimchi doll with a deeper colour it would be perfect. Nude is a nice colour but comes of a little orange for me so I do not reach for it as much. Overall they are great pigmentation, long lasting, gorgeous packaging and when bought in a deal (I brought 4 for $45 with free worldwide shipping from gerardcosmetics.com) then they are not that pricey for lipsticks

I was gifted this by a fellow BR girl. when i first recieved this, the thing that stood out the most, was the Gold Bullet! my magpie eyes zoomed straight towards it. then i open it and see a nude shade, which, i will be honest, i have way to many nudes and even though i knew what it looked like, i though 'oh no K, not another one', BUT OMG! this beats ALL my other nudes, including my hug me MAC one. it applies like a DREAM! and it lasts a good 2 hours before fading, evey now and then i will top with a gloss, but not all the time. I am seriously in love with this shade, and i am looking forward to one day owning more of Gerad lipsticks. 10/10 for my perfect Nude shade that isnt 'my lips but better' .

I have been collecting all the lipsticks and have a fairly good collection for their glosses too I love the fact that they have a great staying power (best staying power I have had in a lipstick) They are super pigmented though and long lasting with out bleeding colour all over your face, and don't forget their cute packaging, like a gold bullet

although they are not with out fault I have some that have faulty packaging, (applying lipstick and slowly the product is pushed back down so you have to wind it up again to finish application) also their formulates fairy with different colours or release dates, their newer colours are a lot creamer then their originals so if you have dry skin you may well have a little problem.

Love them and currently need them all! I have a couple and they are creamy and so pigmented. My favourite one I'm using everyday is Berry Smoothie it glides on so easily and lasts me pretty much all day and leaves a nice stain of colour on the lips for the duration if I don't reapply. Goes on nicely over any lipliner and is great under gloss Gerard lipglosses are also amazing. The packaging is super pretty also and easy to travel with.

I love the colours available in this lipstick range, absolutely beautiful, the price seems high at first - but there are constantly sales or discount codes so you never need to pay full price. The packaging feels a little cheap, and I've had a lid of one crack, but that's not really a deal breaker. The lipsticks are so pigmented - I love the colour pay off you get. They're on the more matte side - but not fully matte I don't think. They feel comfortable and last a decent amount of time. The only thing is I would avoid putting them on dry lips as they can emphasise the dry patches sometimes.

Gorgeous packaging, definitely stands out! Great for everyday, I apply a little and pop a clear lip balm on top, it's leaves a pretty stain on your lips. Consistency is creamy and you don't have to apply much to see the beautiful colour. Long lasting and stays on when you eat and drink. Beautiful range of colours, which I can't wait to purchase!

Let me start by saying that I absolutely LOVE this lipstick. The packaging is beautiful, they're not too expensive (especially since they have really good deals ALL THE TIME), and I really like the colour and formula.

I have the colour 1995, which is the most popular one it seems.. It comes up pretty dark and brown on me, but I like it for something different. The texture (not sure if this is the same for all of them) is pretty drying, and I have dry lips anyway, so I always have to put a lip balm underneath it. It lasts a really long time and when it starts fading off, I think it does so in quite a nice way. Not too noticeable and doesn't go patchy.

Berry Smoothie and Rodeo Drive are definitely next on my list - the colours look sooo beautiful in the online swatches.
