Velvet Vanity Cosmetics Review in Libra Baby
Velvet Vanity Cosmetics is a Malaysian cosmetics brand that I have been seeing on social media from various local beauty gurus and how it was compared to Colourpop and even Kylie Lip Kit. Soon after, it became a must have for every beauty hoarders like me.
As of now, they have three shades of liquid matte lipstick to choose from.
Initially, I wanted Slam Berry and Libra Baby but the former was sold out so I settled for this.
Price wise, it is not exactly affordable but at the same time, it is still cheaper than most liquid lipsticks in the market.
Color wise, it is a nude with slight pink undertones.
To be honest, I was quite nervous of this color as I am nowhere fair nor tanned so it will either make me look washed out or fabulous.
Packaging
The packaging would look more expensive if they have stamped their brand on the bottle instead.
Other than that, it looks like any other liquid lipsticks that comes with a doe-foot applicator.
Swatches
Under normal light
Under flash
Application
The scent is very faint. It reminds me of Tic Tac candy.
It takes about a minute for it to completely dry. So apply a thin layer first.
Prior to applying the liquid lipstick, I put on layers of lip balm thinking I could get away with it. They really mean it when you have to exfoliate your lips. Period.
So I did experience crack lips (trust me, it doesn't look pretty) and I just layered lip balm to minimize the damage I have caused.
But the longevity is depending on what you consume. Probably not the safest idea to have oily food which I tried and it didn't exactly fade the entire lipstick! Imagine curry chicken with fried bananas, my lipstick still stayed in tact. I was fairly surprised.
Overall, I do like the liquid lipstick
Will I repurchase? Yes
Till then,
