Colourpop! Liquid Ultra Matte Lipsticks











Colourpop came out of nowhere it seems like, to become one of the most popular brands on the market.  I was on their website last night and there was actually a line to check out because their servers couldn't process so much business at once.  I am excited for them, because its always nice to see a little company that makes a great product become successful.

There's nothing I love more than a liquid matte, and these folks make a wide array of colors.  They also make other lipsticks and makeup, which I haven't tried yet, but I am sure I will.  I have good friends who swear by their Lippie Stix, so I would give those a try too, if you're game. 

At $6, the price point is right.  The downside is that since this is an online business only, you can't try the colors on before buying.  I ordered a bunch of colors, along with my besties, and ordered an extra "beeper" to give away.  If you would like to enter, details are on my instagram!

This is probably the most "liquid" liquid lipstick I have ever tried.  Be really careful applying, don't set the bottle down, because the product is super watery and will drip right on out.  It takes about a minute to try and set, and once its on, its on.  It isn't coming off without some effort!  The formula is a little bit drying, which I actually like, because to me it feels like I'm not wearing anything.  If that isn't your cup of tea, I recommend a primer or some chapstick on underneath.

The colors I swatched are, from left to right, Solow, Trap, Bumble, Beeper, Stingraye, Tulle, and Creeper.  You can find them here.

The photo below shows the colors in the tubes, the swatches wet, and the swatches dry.

Creeper


I really didn't feel like the first picture did justice to how bright Creeper is, so here is a second one. Its BRIGHT. Its almost too bright red for me, and I didn't know there was such a thing.  One coat with Creeper, anything else, they'll see you coming in the dark.


This is a great product, at a great price point.  They're busy, so you'll have to wait a bit for your order, but I would definitely recommend it.
