Jeffree Star Cosmetics Velour Liquid Lipstick Review with Swatches

Here are all my Jeffree Star Velour Liquid Lipsticks in a big ol' review & swatch video. I've got all the details and links for each of the shades I bought below.


These are all $18 (US) and they state that all their liquid lipsticks are 100% vegan and cruelty free. They also have an ingredients list on the website if you are interested in all the ins and outs of the product.

They say that their liquid lipstick goes on opaque, dries completely matte and stays on for hours! This product is 100% vegan & cruelty-free! (tips before use: exfoliate then apply to bare lips! avoid food with oil... and no making out, kisses are ok!)

The international shipping was pretty quick and I received my package 11 days after I placed the order. I ordered enough to get free shipping so that was pretty cool too. They send you a confirmation email as usual and also another email when your package ships with tracking details so you can check the status if you desire.

This is not a sponsored video and I bought all of these lipsticks myself.

How to get the perfect Black Glossy Lip: Review & Swatches PART 2

Here are some other ways to get black glossy lips if you don't have any black lipgloss around. With Part 2 of the video I'll show you a review with hand and lip swatches plus my thoughts and some extra tips.

Check out Part 1 of the perfect Black glossy lip video which will show you three black glosses complete with hand and lip swatches!

Enjoy!




Products Featured in the video

Black Products NYX Slim Lip Liner in Black Berry (can be found at drug store or NYX Cosmetics Site)
Urban Decay 24/7 Eye pencil in Perversion (Urban decay site or Sephora/Ulta shops)

Lime Crime Velvetine in Black Velvet from Lime Crime site
Portland Black Lipstick Company Black Lipstick from their site

Clear Lipgloss
Obsessive Compulsive Lip Tar in Clear from OCC site
Rimmel Vinyl gloss in Crystal Clear (can be found at drug store)


Other Black lipsticks

Melt lipstick in Bane from Melt Cosmetics (which is the next black lipstick on my list!)
OCC Lip tar in Tarred from Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics here.

Some other tips...
With a translucent black lip gloss or one that isn’t opaque enough for what you want, you can apply it over a coloured lipstick to darken the colour. For example you could add a light black lipgloss over a lipstick for a vamped up lip.

It also works the other way, you can dab on the lipgloss lightly and make a highly pigmented lipgloss give softer effect. Check out this lip tutorial where I lightly used the Illamasqua Intense gloss for a darkened berry kinda lip here.

Also you can mix a loose black eyeshadow with the non-pigmented black gloss and make it more opaque and as dark as you like. And you can even add some sparkle to it. If you mix Stella loose chromalust pigment from Sugarpill Cosmetics you could add some darkness and also some light glitter throughout your custom lipgloss.

Darth Maul Lip Art: Sith vs Jedi Collaboration with Nijigasumi16

I'm here to bring you the Sith vs Jedi collaboration. I was invited to clash light Sabres with Nijigasumi16 on YouTube who is of the serene and harmonious Jedi order and I represent the passionate, powerful and wrathful Sith.

I took inspiration from the intense rage of Darth Maul and his red skin and tribal-esque tattoos of his face, plus gold spikes to display his horns.

After watching the 2 tutorials you shall see which side of the force prevails! Bwahahaha!

Enjoy!
