ColorPop Ultra Matte Lip Review

I have the shade Creeper, which is a true red. Online it looks more orange-red or coral-red but this is defiantly a true red. The formula is quiet thick and pigmented, you do get a lot of product in the tube and it comes with a nice long wand with a doe foot applicator. I am a huge fan of this formula, its super matte, non-drying, relatively transfer proof and very long lasting. I have several Jefree Star lipsticks and have to say this is comparable in quality. I highly recommend these liquid lipsticks as they are fantastic products at an awesome price.

I have the ultra matte lippie in the shade Arriba (a collaboration) and it's soooo pretty! It dries down to a really great matte. It's not completely transfer proof but there's no shine and it doesn't get on my teeth. I'd never tried a red lipstick before and I'm digging this one. It looks slightly orange but it's definitely a true red.

I have the shade trap which is nude, it is a bit darker then on the website but still is a beautiful wearable nude. I always wear this when going out to dinner or a party and it’s just about to run out so very much loved. I will definitely be getting this shade again and buying some of the other shades I’m sure. The liquid lipsticks are very affordable being $6.50 usd each. I gave them a 5/5 rating as for the price I think they are really good. I find it stays on my lips well for a few hours but if I drink or eat I normally have to apply a little in the inside of my lips. I like the little doe applicator it comes with but if I have the time il use a lip brush as you get a better application. 100% kiss proof which I love. I recommend these to my friends and they each have their own little collection now! Their also vegan and cruelty free.

I love Colourpop's ultra matte lipsticks. I've found them a nice powdery matte with no transfer or slippage all day. I don't need to touch up unless I'm eating some oily pasta, which does destroy some of the lipstick.

Pigment doesn't look exactly like the bottle, so I found swatches really useful as some shades look much lighter on me than on fairer skin tones. But it's very pigmented and even. My favourite go-to shades are bumble (a perfect dark rose lmlbb shade, especially for medium skin tones) and lax (a vampy and very dark oxblood red).

The applicator is very soft and doesn't have too much product sticking to it. The only thing to be careful of is that it can be very drying if you put the liquid lipstick on your bare lips. Make sure you exfoliate, use lip balm the day before and after, and use a primer or similar toned lip pencil. I found the Colourpop lippie pencils very creamy and effective for this.

Overall, love these lipsticks for the gorgeous matte shades and for never budging. And all for US$6! Sometimes less on sale. Amazing.

My friend gave this to me and it's a beautiful red. I've looked for red lipsticks and so glad that this works perfectly! It settles to a beautiful matte and stays out for hours. Highly pigmented and doesnt rub off. The only downside about this is that it's hard to take off but I'm not complaining!

so, i got on this matte lipstick train at a late time (after the crazy has kinda passed). but i have no regrets, it gave me the opportunity to get my head around the product and save and get heaps all at once hahaha. so i got quite a few...about 15 to be exact. mostly nudes and pinks.

now these mattes are interesting. they look great in the tube. they look ok on your arm swatch. then it looks completely different when you apply to your lips. so that's a bit annoying lol. the pigment in my lips darkens the colour and i'm not too keen in the bold dark lip anymore. also...they are VERY drying on me. i constantly have peeling flaking lips.

I own the shades, Creeper (the perfect red, bright, vibrant.. to die for) and LAX (a deep, rich, red toned brown/maroon-ey colour).

PROS: The PIGMENT IS EVERYTHING. These Lipstick's have the most incredible colour pay off - one swatch or brush against your lip and, BOOM, colour in all it's vibrancy. The quality of the colour is unreal for what you pay for these lipsticks. I have had so many compliments on both shades. LONGWEARING: Well folks, they certainly do as they say... these bad boys are incredibly long wearing and they don't transfer unless they get wet (either with a drink or I notice towards the inner of my lips where the saliva is). I actually just wore Creeper yesterday and it lasted all day, every time I went to the mirror thinking I needed a touch up, it was still looking fantastic and no touch up was required (so technically, you're saving product and therefore money!) EASY TO USE: These bad boys are fantastic and easy to apply, the applicator that it comes with is easy to create a nice clean line around your lips and if needed using a smaller detail brush is easy too as although the product dries quickly, it's not so quick that you don't have enough time to work with it.

CONS: The only con is that the lipsticks are quite drying... but that is the risk with any Matte Lipstick.. let's be real. However, it's not drying to the point of peeling/crumbling after time which is a pet hate of mine. So, although it is drying, it's something that I can cope with and doesn't stop me from reaching for these lipsticks over and over again.

CONLUSION: DO IT, it's worth the money, it's worth your time. These lipsticks are QUALITY, I can't actually wrap my head around how cheap they are for the fantastic product you are getting.

I have two of these liquid matte lipsticks and I am just itching for more!!

Bumble is hands down the best matte lipstick I have ever tried. The colour is a dusky rosey pink which glides on perfectly and dries to a perfect matte. It doesn't bleed and it doesn't transfer. It wears well throughout the whole day with only the smallest amount of wear on the inside edge of my lips.

HOWEVER...Notion is the second colour I own in the ultra matte lipstick. It has a very deep purpley pink (described as deepened raspberry on Colour Pop's site, though I feel like it's too purple for raspberries). It has the same consistency, it applies and wears very well. But here's the kicker: it transfers a lot and it bleeds a little. It's still become one of my favourite lip colours to wear and I endure it's downfalls for that reason. Removing it was quite hard as the deep colour somewhat stained my lips and slid AROUND my lips to slightly stain my face... not cool... but with a few extra minutes work and some extra wipes I was able to get rid of it all. So BE CAREFUL.

All up I think each colour of the ultra mattes are going to be different, but I have faith that they'll all give you that snap chat worthy pout you're looking for.
