Découvrez Bourjois Rouge Velvet The Lipstick, un magnifique rouge à lèvres longue tenue qui ne desséchera jamais vos lèvres ! Bourjois presents itself as Chanel’s younger sister, and, unlike its older sibling, it is kind of obsessed with bright colours, offering more than 400 different shades of makeup products. The transfer-proof claim that Bourjois makes is true up until you get your lips extensively wet or warm from eating, drinking, or, let’s face it, making out. The packaging is much prettier than my lipstick Holy Grail, Maybelline’s Matte Inks, and the product performs pretty much on par with them, with a slightly lighter feel on the lips up until they’ve been reapplied a couple times.

El tono es precioso y además muy comodo y cremoso, deja los labios hidratados y la verdad es que dura muchísimo. The secret of its exclusive formula is the moisturising complex that combines hydrating waxes with light oils and rich pigments for an irresistible velvety soft finish that pops.

On a first application I would say they feel less drying and heavy than Maybelline’s Matte Inks, but after reapplying twice it hit a similar benchmark of discomfort after several hours of wear. Id wear it for a quick errand, but it wont look consistently good for an entire coffee or dinner date. These Rouge Velvet Inks claim to be a ‘tattoo-like liquid formula (which) remains lightweight and comfortable for 24 hours, leaving lips touchproof and transferproof. Like all liquid lipsticks, it isn’t completely infallible, something I doubt anyone truly expects, so it does break down on the inner lip from eating anything creamy or greasy, and will wear away slowly with repeated drinking over time. I’m happy to stick with just my Maybellines for the most part for now, but hot dang that RedBelle shade looks phenomenal on you and I can’t off the top of my head think of any such intense cranberry red in the Maybelline shade range – massive though that is, lol!

It uses a revolutionary weightless formula so you can enjoy all-day, intense color with a buttery smooth finish.

The velvety soft lipsticks have a teardrop tip for precise application, providing a bold matte finish with up to 24 hours extreme wear. You need to apply several layers, but this suits me just fine since the lipstick doesn't dry out quickly and I can adjust it. Bourjois' Rouge Velvet lipstick provides a highly pigmented velvety matte finish that lasts up to 24 hours. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. These days, Bourjois carries a wide range of products from mascaras, eyeliners and lipsticks to makeup removers, deodorants, shower gels and perfume.

I also found the curved shape of the lipstick tube to make application difficult on the edges of my lips. When you want a precise lipstick with intense matte colour that lasts long and feels light, just one swipe of Rouge Velvet The Lipstick will give your lips up to 24 hours of full-on glamour. I did prefer it as an applicator to the standard rounded-tip doe’s foot wand most brands use for their liquid lipsticks (Maybelline’s more pear-shaped wand works equally as well for me.

If we treat the Maybelline Matte Inks as a liquid lipstick benchmark of 100% pigmentation, then these Velvet Inks are more like 80%, needing a little more finesse during application to get an even layer of colour. The brand started out selling little wax-based foundation sticks designed to be used as stage makeup and bearing amusing names like Jealous or Lovesick. To remove, you need to use a dual oil-water makeup remover to get them off in the most thorough and gentle manner, like all good liquid lipsticks. It’s velvety smooth and perfectly matt and feels light and pleasant on your lips – that’s Bourjois Rouge Velvet Ink, a matt effect liquid lipstick that gives your lips intense colour.
