Pros: convenient applicator, doesn't smudge, easy to apply, gorgeous packaging, lightweight
Cons: dries out my lips a little, emphasizes peeling

Hello ladies!

Today I’d like to talk about an extraordinary Bourjois lipstick that I have in two beautiful shades.

I’m obsessed with liquid matte lipsticks because I love their texture! So I always have them in my makeup bag. These babes are something special, however. They look more like soft textures and delicate tints for every day.

What they say:

Bold, matte and long-lasting colour with 24 hour hold. the Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet Lipstick lightweight, velvety texture and non-drying formula gives extreme comfort that doesn't smudge!

Enriched with evanescent oils, it's incredibly sensuous formula provides a soft, second-skin feel, without drying or fading lips.

Expert tip: Apply Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet Lipstick using your fingertips for a softer look or use the applicator and build up the coverage for an intense statement pout!

Ingredients:

DIMETHICONE,AQUA (WATER),DIMETHICONE/VINYL DIMETHICONE CROSSPOLYMER,JOJOBA ESTERS,BUTYL ACRYLATE/HYDROXYPROPYL DIMETHICONE ACRYLATE COPOLYMER,BUTYLENE GLYCOL,HELIANTHUS ANNUUS (SUNFLOWER) SEED WAX,SACCHARIDE ISOMERATE,PHENOXYETHANOL,ACACIA DECURRENS FLOWER WAX,POLYGLYCERIN-3,PARFUM (FRAGRANCE),CITRIC ACID,SODIUM CITRATE,ALPHA-ISOMETHYL IONONE,LINALOOL,CITRONELLOL,GERANIOL,[+/- (MAY CONTAIN):MICA,CI 12085 (RED 36),CI 15850 (RED 6),CI 15850 (RED 7 LAKE),CI 15985 (YELLOW 6 LAKE),CI 17200 (RED 33 LAKE),CI 19140 (YELLOW 5 LAKE),CI 42090 (BLUE 1 LAKE),CI 45410 (RED 28 LAKE),CI 45380 (RED 22 LAKE),CI 73360 (RED 30 LAKE),CI 75470 (CARMINE),CI 77163 (BISMUTH OXYCHLORIDE),CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499 (IRON OXIDES),CI 77742 (MANGANESE VIOLET),CI 77891 (TITANIUM DIOXIDE)].

I have it in 2 shades:

• 01 Oragelique

• 07 Plum plum pidou

The lipstick comes in a nice small tube. I like such versions, because they don’t take much space in my makeup bag.

The applicator wand with a sponge is very convenient, because it provides a precise application without any lip liner.

The powder scent is not off-putting.

The most interesting thing about the product is its texture. It’s something incredible! It feels like a soft fluffy souffle. So the lipstick is pleasant to my lips, I love it!

If I apply a thick coat, it takes quite long to dry out. It takes 30 minutes for a lipstick to get matte sometimes. However, when I apply just a drop of it, the process is quicker and the finish looks gentle.

The wear time is average. It is still there after some snacks, but it is not after meals. It comes off gradually and it’s easy to fix it.

It’s quite patchy like the majority of matte lipsticks, so you have to apply it evenly and distribute the product with an applicator. However, it’s not very noticeable.

The lipstick is a very good everyday shade. It looks gentle and soft on my lips. It doesn’t moisturize my lips, but doesn’t dry them out as well. If I apply the product with my fingertip, I get a lightweight coverage that reminds me of a lip tint.

The lipstick doesn’t flow or set into the lip lines.

Now let’s talk about every shade separately:

• Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet Lipstick 01 Oragelique •

It’s such a nice coral shade!

This color refreshes my skin tone and the whole look.

• Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet Lipstick 07 Plum plum pidou •

It’s a great versatile shade for those who love pink.

If you want to make your lipstick more matte, but have no time to wait till it’s dry, you can just dab your lips with a dry handkerchief.

Price: $12.90

 

Pros:

+ Nice consistency

+ Gorgeous color range

+ Lightweight formula

Cons:

- I wanted it to be more nourishing

- Looks patchy if you apply it unevenly

 

After all, I recommend this lipstick for those who are fond of matte textures and also for those who are not, because you would definitely love it Smile It’s perfect for every day and for on the go Smile

That’s it for today Smile
