Lip stain that goes on liquid and dries completely matte. Touch-proof, long-wearing, and utterly addictive!

I must be the strange one

Seeing as how everyone around the world loves the Velvetines, I must be the only strange one who dislike this and would never use again. When I first bought it, I was super excited to try and when I did get a chance to try it, I hated how it's so watery and just goes everywhere! The Velvetines dries up so fast, since it's so watery, if I make a mess I would have to be quick to clean it up or else it would leave a stain. I have only tried the Pink Velvetine and the color is beautiful but I am not liking the formula.

Salem Velvetine

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.

Lime Crime Velvetines

I got Suedeberry, and I wasn't very happy with it. I found that it flaked very easily and dried out my lips like no other non-Lime Crime lipstick ever has. I also thought it wasn't as longlasting as the Velourlips

Wicked!

I have had 2 of these suedeberry and wicked. Both beautiful, they dont dehydrate my lips, my fav of all time is wicked. they both last ages, as in hours throughout the day, they dont feather, they dry fast , theyre opaque Luckily though many other brands are coming out with liquid lipsticks because even though this is a really great product I wont be repurchasing this or recommending it to a friend. I only have wicked left and when it runs out i will put it on my mantel as one of the greatest and best lip products i have had the pleasure of using.

Lime crime wins again!

I have 5 of these velvetines in Salem, Wicked, pink velvet, red velvet and suedeberry...and need to get my hands on the newest Utopia I like these so much due to the matte finish they give and the long lasting powers. These are perfect for a night out and they stay in place, and are food/drinkproof. They do leave a stain on the lips so I usually have to makeup wipe or exfoliate to completely get rid of the colour. Not only are they a great product but the packaging is also amazing and looks great in any makeup collection.

Tips: Apply slowly with a steady hand as it can be hard to get a defined edge around the lips. It can also become quite dry and crack over the lips so I use a lip balm beforehand and this fixes the problem

Wicked

I bought this in Wicked which is the perfect deep shade of burgundy. I couldn't be happier with the colour and the matte finish. It's exactly the shade I have been looking for.

As some have pointed out, application is very tricky at first. I found that I was initially getting a very patchy result but in time I got the technique under control.

I thought the staying power was good but not as great as I was expecting. Admittedly I have mostly worn it in party situations where a drink wasn't too far from my mouth most of the night. I have had a lot more success with it lasting well on a normal work day. Touch ups do require VERY careful application or you can get a noticeably uneven result.

That said, I'm so happy with the colour that I can handle the extra effort required to make this one look good.

Amazing product

After reading reviews on this product i decided to buy my own and how happy i am i did. The pigmentation and colours are amazing. Only a little is needed for full coverage too, i wore one layer and after a normal day of work, eating etc the coverage was still there!

I also found that there was no cracking, flaking or bleeding!

It's well worth it's price and when applying your first layer always use a small amount that helps with it all drying at the same pace. And if your wanting it darker just add another layer. And fix mistakes quickly otherwise it's hard to fix :)

Amazing

I really love the velvetines tey have some awesome colours ranging from nudes to brights. It isn't drying at all for me personally and one of my favs is pink velvet. They also do last on the lips.

Tips: Avoid oily food eg. fried food as this is what kind of makes the colour come off. Also sometimes some batches or colours are more 'watery' than others but still looks great.

Best Matte formula

I was amped to finally be able to purchase a LC Velvetine after hearing so much positive praise about them. Utopia had recently been released and I had to have it.

I was a little anxious at first try, I hadn't really ever used a liquid matte before and I worried how it would wear, but honestly, it's such a beautiful formula and wears so well.

I find that I need to prep my lips first, as they do dry out a wee bit with this. A quick sugar scrub followed by a light application of a hydrating balm is enough to set the colour for long-lasting wear. I love that I can apply it and not have to worry about smearing and smudging (ain't nobody got time for that!).

I always get complimented when I wear this shade, and I really think it suits everyone.

I just heard LC are pulling out of NZ & Australia, so I need to get Suede Berry and Pink Velvet before they're gone!
