I finally splurged on this product a few weeks ago and I have no regrets! Wonderful texture on application, great strong pigment and stayed on my lips pretty well even when eating and drinking. It definitely costs more than I would usually spend on a lip product, but I think it's definitely worth the money. The doe foot applicator is really good but I tend to use a lip brush for most lip products anyway as it gives me more control. Only issue is that it is quite drying, so make sure your lips are well moisturised before applying.

I have been waiting to get my hands on a Velvetine for a very very long time and finally got given one by my amazing friends for my birthday and it did not disappoint!! Wicked is the absolute perfect shade, and although the fact that it seems to be more of a lip glass than a lipstick at first, in terms of packaging and applicator, it is definitely a rival to all of my other lipsticks combined, including my MAC and Sephora ones! Its staying power is incredible, I can wear mine for an entire days waitressing without a worry. I prefer it to tube lipsticks because you only need to do one coat and you're away laughing. The colours are near identical to what you see on the swatches on the website, and they're extremely matte which I love! This is by far my favourite lipstick in my possession, and it exceeds all of my expectations! I would recommend it to anyone and everyone, it is amazing!!
Tips: Because it is so matte it can be a little drying, so applying chapstick (I use Baby Lips by Maybelline) ensures that your lips feel fine!
Love love love! Everything about the velvetInes is great- the little and pretty packaging, the thin formula of the product means you only need a small amount and the tubes last a long time, and I love that they are a little bit easier to work with than thicker formulas, the way they dry to a perfect matte finish and stay that way for HOURS, the beautiful, intense and unique colour, produced without animal cruelty and by a brand that embraces quirky :) The pink of the suedeberry is so gorgeous and wearable and goes with so many looks- and is also a colour I haven't found in any other liquid lipsticks so far.
Tips: Less is more- be careful not to bleed the product. Moisturize before and after and use an oil to remove.
After reading about these and becoming increasingly jealous I didn't have one, i ordered my first Velvetine in Red Velvet and omg, I fell in love! Goes on smooth, dries to a beautiful matte finish! Then new shades came out and a friend of mine won them all (no fair!) and let me wear Wicked, and I fell in love all over again! I ended up ordering one of my own a couple of weeks ago and i've worn it most days since. And it lasts at least 6hrs even with eating and drinking. The deep red shade is perfect! (It's so hard to find a deep dark red that isn't too purple or brown no?) Love. I'll have to get the rest of the colours i think!
Tips: Scrub, moisturise and line lips for best results! xx
Such a gorgeous colour!, a little goes a long way with this product, it goes on full and with a heavy pigment. However, i found its staying power wasnt too effective and am left with it only on the outer lip and it had all worn off in the middle within a couple of hours or after a drink
Tips: to avoid it coming off an leaving only the outer, apply a bright pink lip liner underneath and fill in the enitre lip before applying this product
And I am converted. Have seen lot's of my friends making purchases recently and have finally jumped on the bandwagon. My biggest issue was I didn't want to buy them online, I wanted to see them in real life and swatch the colors. I discovered a shop in Wellington CBD sells them, so off I went. I purchased 'Suedeberry', a bit brighter than I initially wanted, was on the hunt for 'Wicked' but obviously it was sold out. Goes on somewhat easy but I think it will take a while to master, I would definitely recommend lining your lips first to avoid it bleeding out. I love that its touch proof but the inner did wear throughout the day with eating and drinking but nowhere near as much as what a normal everyday lipstick would have. I loved being able to go into a meeting and not worry about smudging or needing to re-apply. I will definitely get 'Wicked' when the new stock comes in.
My only issue was the removal.. not as simple as just wiping it off, the only thing I found in my bathroom that actually took it off was my toner, which probably wasn't the best thing for my lips so any suggestions would be welcomed!
I've heard so many reviews on this line, I've watched shaaanxo, and many other Beauty gurus on YouTube review this product, so I thought I'd give it a go! I bought the pink velvet it cost me $29 from a store here in dunedin. I was so excited I had to put it on straight away! And oh my goddess I was blown away with how amacing it looked when it dried on my lips!! Every mirror I walked past I had to have alook. I got home about 5-6 hours after applying it and it was still on!!! Hardly worn off & I hadn't touched it up or anything. I'm so so in love with this lipstick, I will definatly be repurchasing!!! My holy grail product.
Ok so wow!!! Red velvet !!!!!
The packaging was incredible the tube amazing!!!
The colour? To die for pin up red :)
I got this for my birthday last year , the old style box with a carousel and horse... I applied it immediately and fell in love.
It lasts well, the only downfall is that it did wear off while drinking and eating.
Tips: Use a straw for drinks and eat carefully lol
This is such a gorgeous colour, I like the fact that it is more of a light red than a deep red. This formula does stay on for a very long time and won't come off throughout the day depending on what you eat. I did find that certain foods and drinks can make it slightly transferrable. But it is still very quality for the price.
Tips: Just carry it with you and you will have no problems with it coming off
This stuff is by far my favourite matte lip product. If you're after a chocolatey brown with a red undertone, then Salem is the shade for you! This stuff is long lasting and doesn't smudge or wear off once dry. I like how there is no need for lip liner or anything like that, you apply it and wait for it to dry and BOOM you're ready to go.
Tips: As this is a very matte lip colour/stain you may have to use a lip scrub or exfoliate before you apply it as it can exaggerate the look of dry lips.
