Sometimes we fancy a change. Perhaps we are done with the drying, cakey lipstick era or past the sickly sweet lipgloss' brands are pedalling to the adult market. Perhaps it is time to combine the two into the ultimate weapon in our beauty armoury. That's right, this year is the rise of the liquid lipstick a product that promises to deliver the pigment of a lipstick with a texture of a gloss, that sets matte! Oh you had me a the alteration, say no more!
One such product is the Boujour Rouge Edition Velvet liquid lipsticks which are being hailed as a dupe for the pricey YSL Kiss & Blush Lip & Cheek Stain's. When it comes to splashing my cash I like to feel I am getting some bang for my buck; the product should reflect the price. So when I saw that the Boujour Rouge Edition Velvet's were £8.99 against the YSL £27 I snapped up a few shades in my local Boots drugstore, this one is Peach Club.
What they say
The Boujour Rouge Edition Velvet's soft, melting texture glides on to the lips and turns into a matt, velvety and incredibly light colour. Lips are left smooth and soft as velvet.
What I say
First off, I haven't loved a product as much as this since my love affair with the Clinique CC Cream. The Boujour Rouge Edition Velvet's little tubes of liquid colour are the best things since banana and peanut butter. The texture is liquid and when applied feels very soft and as the name states, like velvet. A little colour goes a long way and the colour pay off is amazing. Once you apply the liquid it sets matte and there is not stickiness like most lip glosses. I love a matte lipstick and once it was on there was no transfer after eating and drinking.
If you are looking for something new to add some sun to your winter blues' then I highly recommend you pick one of these up. There are 8 shades in the collection and I am dashing out to buy them all! They are often on a Boots 3 for 2 or buy one get one half price deal as well!
Have you tried a liquid lipstick? What other brands should I try?
Stay beautiful
