I too prefer the far more chic feel of the velvets (both bullet and packaging) and I was so happy when the liquid lipstick era was over. I trust Lisa but these will not get used, because I will always reach for the bullets. Happy for everyone who did want Lisa to make good liquid lipsticks.
Yes, it was much requested. I don't expect I'll prefer this over the Velvets, but it's a great formula. I'm glad she has it as an option for those who love a liquid lipstick.
Velvet Muse was my first Lisa Eldridge lipstick, and I’m really only interested in Velveteen Muse! Especially now that you said it seems deeper than the bullet lipstick. I really want her to make a cool toned nude in between the depths of Muse and Sorcery. I’m also not really a liquid lipstick person, but I love how she demo’d the lipsticks sheer since that is how I tend to wear them. Thanks for picking these up and your thoughts on them! I can always count on your Lisa Eldridge content. ❤
Thanks so much! I love Lisa's products, and even though I'm not a liquid lipstick person, these are so good. I knew if she released anything it would be good, but I'm still a little bit surprised at how much I enjoy them. I really like Ribbon tapped in softly with a blurry edge. It's not my norm, but I love it! Thanks so much for making time to watch today.
I bought Blush and Jazz because the Velveteen versions looked vampier than the Velvets! I am not a fan of liquid lipsticks either but naturally Lisa made an outstanding product. I appreciate the longevity, the soft focus velvet effect, and the ability to deepen the colors with layers!
Yes, it's a lovely formula. One I will actually reach for. It's a rare liquid lipstick that I want to wear. Thanks so much for watching, and enjoy Blush and Jazz.
thanks for sharing! i ordered jazz, only. ribbon looked veryyy pretty on lisa but i thought i could get jazz and either smudge it to a reddish, blotted color or wear it full on with its browny, smoky red pay off. i used charlotte tilbury's pillow talk eyeliner to line my lips for it, ha ha. jazz definitely bleeds, application is tricky and it takes a good amount of time. but like you said, it doesn't go anywhere other than the middle parts of lips upon eating & talking... 1-2 coats of coverage is plenty enough! the formula reminds me of tarteist liquid lipstick's slippery, silicone-y texture with dose of colors' thin, full on matte, waterproof longevity. not as drying as those kvd liquid lipsticks although the colors look veryyyy similar to lolita, etc... absolutely loved the color jazz in velveteen! i don't think i could wear jazz in the original velvet formula, a dark color has to be smudge proof for me to wear on my lips. it's so sexy and mysterious, definitely needed in my collection. looking forward to mixing it with other lipsticks to add an oomph to my existing colors... fawn, muse, affair... dried down colors look veryyy similar to me. they are not as different than each other as much as in the original velvet lipstick form. they may be nice colors for the fall, but not for the summer time for me. last year's collections of 'luxuriously lucent lip colours 'were much more summer appropriate imho. gosh, i just loooove lisa!
Yes, I love Lisa too! I'm glad that I like these Velveteens. I'm also glad I picked up the two shades that I use most in bullet form. I wore Ribbon yesterday just tapped in with my finger. A very light layer, and it looked amazing! It did need a layer of balm after about 3 hours because I had the barest whisper of color on. I did struggle with getting it to look even, but I just kept blending until I got what I wanted. I loved the way it looked. I'm not a liquid lip fan at all, and I nearly skipped this release. I'm glad that I picked up these two, but I don't think I'll trade my Velvet Lipsticks for these Velveteen Lips. They're amazing, but I'm still a bullet lipstick kinda gal. Thanks so much for watching today!
Lovely video thank you! I have bought 3 of the velveteen schades so far and I like them all. Compared to all my other lipstick formulas, my number one favourite is still the matt bullet lipsticks from Dries Van Noten. The shade "punk vermillion" is an absolute masterpiece.
I've never tried anything from Dries Van Noten. Punk Vermillion sounds like a stunning shade by the name alone! I'm running to check it out right now. I'm very impressed with this formula. As a non liquid lipstick person, I really like this formula. It's comfortable and easy to reapply. Totally worth the $27.
I was waiting for this. Thanks! You look gorgeous in the red! I'll pass on these because to me they are too high maintenance and I'm just not into liquid lips except I do sometimes wear the Maybelline Color Tattoo, which are less than half the price. Liquid lipstick should cost less because it doesn't last as long after you have opened it and it gets gunky and gross. I wear my bullet lipsticks for a few years but I can also wipe off the bullet.
Yes, I'm such a bullet lipstick fan. I had to try these because they're new and created by Lisa. I love every other lipstick she makes, and I just had to know. I've never tried the Maybelline Color Tattoo. I've always been worried they'd dry my lips out. Thanks so much for watching today!
I totally agree with your review, I purchased Affair and Ribbon and they are beautiful (you make me want Muse🤦🏻♀️) I also feel that they are very comfortable and easy to touch up. I hate liquid lips that get crumbly ad drying. Have a great week🥰
I don't like anything that gets crumbly or flaky. These are so good even though I don't love liquid lipsticks. These make me want to wear them. I've actually been wearing Ribbon for the past 3 days without any drying or problems. I don't know that I "need" any more of these, but they're a great formula. I'm happy to recommend these.
Yes, we're not all liquid lip people. I probably won't pick up more shades, but I'm glad I have these. I'm curious to see what happens when I start to mix this with other LE lip formulas.
Thanks for trying the Velveteens! I am curious on how they compare to the Em Cosmetics Soft Spoken lip cremes? There is a lot more variety in shades in the Velveteens so I am mulling over trying the LEs.
The Soft Spoken Lip Cremes never dry down. (they'll transfer to any cup, utensil, person you kiss) They always stay soft and pillow-y on the lips. They're also a slightly thicker formula. You can feel them a bit more on the lips. They hydrate my lips, but it's because they don't dry down. This Velveteen Lip is like a traditional liquid lip that dries down and doesn't transfer. It doesn't hold up to eating particularly well, but I love how easy it is to reapply just where I need it without the formula getting weird. It doesn't get goopy or ball up with extra layers. I feel like the Soft Spoken Lip creams pull terracotta (orange) on me. They're lovely, but I don't get the variety in color that this formula offers. I have 3 of the "nude" shades and they all look like a slightly deeper version of themselves. Light nude terracotta, medium nude terracotta, and deep nude terracotta. I have Petal, Tender and Intuition. The only one that doesn't look terracotta on me is the bright strawberry shade in Flutter.
Some colors are easier to wear in a bullet form. I think with Ribbon, which I consider to be a statement color, I'd want it in a budge-proof formula, which this seems to (almost) be. I think I'm sold after watching this review. Thanks so much for biting the bullet on these. Your review is much appreciated. I've tried liquid lipsticks in the past; they either dry down too much, or they don't dry down at all and transfer the whole time. Whenever I wanted to wear a red and didn't want it to move I'd use a lip stain from ColourPop, but those have a chemical taste so I'm not a fan of them. I almost went for the Charlotte Tilbury lip blur in Ruby, but this one came out just in time to change my mind.
I haven't tried the CT lip blurs. I used to have one of her liquid lipsticks from years ago and never enjoyed the formula. It was drying and uncomfortable. Maybe it's time to see what the lip blurs are like. 🤷♀️ I've been wearing ribbon every day since it arrived. I've never been able to wear a liquid lipstick multiple days in a row because my lips always dried out. Not with this formula. It doesn't nourish my lips, but rather maintains them in their original state. If I start with perfectly hydrated lips, they'll still be comfortable and hydrated when I finally take the formula off.
Two of my favorite shades. (Rain and Ribbon) I'm really impressed with this formula. Today's the third day in a row I've worn ribbon, and my lips aren't freaking out. I can't wear any other liquid lip that dries down three days in a row. I'm super impressed. I do spend the night in a heavy layer of sleeping mask, and I always put on a balm straight out of the shower. My lips are never bare. I think it helps.
❤😊Hey your blush and rest of your makeup looks really nice today. 😁😍🌸 Thanks for your videos and I never want to even think about liquid lipsticks lol. They just don't interest me. It looks nice on you though. 💐
Thanks! I know so many of us just aren't the liquid lipstick type. That's usually me, but I had to know. I appreciate Lisa's products so much, I wanted to try this new formulation. I didn't want to get more than the two I thought I'd use the most, and it's very unlikely that I'll continue to get more shades, but it's a good formula.
I have been on the hunt for the perfect transfer-proof lip for years. I really, really, really don't like it when my lip color transfers to my glass. With all my experimentation, I am currently using Maybelline Vinyl Lip Ink. It is transferproof and lasts through drinking or light snacks, but I lose most of it if I eat a meal. And doing a "touch up" with that formula isn't the best. So. Now I need to decide whether or not to fork out the money for the Lisa Eldridge. Thank you for your review. It was helpful. BTW, that red color looks good on you!
Lisa's red in Ribbon is my all time favorite red shade! It's so good. These to transfer a bit, and break down when eating. They're easy to reapply. I've tried the Maybelline Vinyl Ink, but I always get it stuck to my teeth or gums. When it's a bright red, it's so obvious! I've been struggling to find a hydrating formula that doesn't transfer. I'd avoid the Dior Transfer proof, they're amazingly drying and build up on the inside rim of your lip.
@@thelipstickgal , thank you for your input. I just found your channel and subscribed right away. I am making my way through many of your past videos. I think we are close to the same skin tone (and I am combination to oily), so I'm checking out your videos on foundations, bronzers and blushes. Thanks again!
I am not a liquid lipstick person - EXCEPT the Chanel Le Rouge Duo Ultra Tenue. By far my favorite long wearing formula. I love the range of shades, the wear time, the fact that they don’t dry out my lips (thanks, in part, to the glossy end). I almost purchased Rain, because it’s the only color that I thought might get a decent amount of wear by me (I have the bullet & love it), but wanted to hear more reviews, first. So, thank you! I probably have a dozen or more shades of Lisa’s bullet lipsticks & a 5 or 6 glosses, and I feel like many of the lipsticks pull quite different on me than what I see in her swatches & IG videos. I have that issue with plenty of shades, but I’ve learned to hold off on her shades until I see lots of swatches & reviews…..unless I just can’t help myself with a particular shade. 😆 Thanks again for the review!
Thanks for making the time to watch, and for recommending the Chanel Le Rouge Duo Ultra Tenue. I'll have to check it out. I love Velvet Rain too, but decided to pick up the shades of Velveteen Lips that corresponded to my most used Velvet Lipsticks. Ribbon and Muse. I'm very happy with my purchase. I know I'm fortunate to have a neutral skin tone; most shades work for me. It sounds like you have a beautiful collection of her lip products already. I was super impressed with the comfort level this liquid lip provided and how easy it was to reapply over itself for touch up even after several hours.
I hate liquid lipstick but since it's Lisa I decided to give it a try. I bought RAIN and I love it. Used it as a blush as well, which wore well but you only need the tiniest amount. The formula is surprisingly comfortable and I also found it very easy to use. I'll be buying more colours for sure 😊
@@joannamadalinska3596 I know, right? I normally don't purchase liquid lipsticks unless they're the type that don't dry down, and are nourishing. This one has completely surprised me. I purchased it because Lisa created it, and in her video showing all the colors, she mentioned how she doesn't like dry liquid lips. I'm really very impressed. I still like her Velvet lipsticks more, but these are amazingly good.
Thank you for sharing. I too prefer traditional lipstick. But I can see there is a time for liquid trasfer proof. Summer heat, when you do not want trasfer to glass or just cant touch up. 😍
Yes, this won't be by first go to, but it's a great formulation. I'll always prefer a bullet lipstick, but it's nice to have options. Thanks for watching.
I have found the same result of it having an issue not surviving through nibbles - FYI you can also use the bullet version to great effect for touch ups
thanks for reviewing beautiful Rebecca! They both look nice but the ribbon looks stunning on you! Really beautiful! I'm actually interested in the affair and fawn on the velveteen formula; but planning to get the ribbon and muse on the velvet formula. On another subject, what are those eyeglasses you're wearing please? They're gorgeous! ❤😘
The glasses are from years ago. BCBG, and they're the only ones in my collection with both distance and reading areas in the lenses. I need to get another pair of progressives, but they're so expensive. I don't think I would ever feel attractive in a pair of bifocals. 👵 I'm really loving the lipsticks. Ribbon especially. Today's the third day in a row I'm wearing it. I feel like Fawn would be closer to what I'm looking for. A nude, but not too dark nude shade.
The only liquids that work on me are the Chanel ones, pricey as heck but worth it for me. I need try one of Lisa’s think I’m going to get Rain, those looked so pretty on you.❤
Yes, I know it's not for everyone. Knowing what you like, and what works for you is such an important part of makeup purchasing. Even though these are a great formula, I probably wouldn't have purchased these unless I had this channel. It's good that you know, and stick to your makeup preferences.
Hello! Thank you so much for this video! I got Velveteen Rain for myself and I think as a fellow super fair brunette, you would love it too - it is like a warm rose, pulling almost red, and is quite enlivening! I am now debating whether to get the Ribbon shade in the Velvet or in the Velveteen formulation... I'm sensing the Velveteen tends to get darker as you build it up - that is definitely the case with Rain... Has that been your experience and would you say that Velveteen Ribbon pulls a little darker than Velvet Ribbon as a result? Thank you so much for your wealth of videos, I have been watching so many of them lately. They are an absolute treat! Have a lovely weekend!
Thanks so much for watching today. Yes, Velveteen Ribbon is much darker once you get complete coverage. I find that I have to build it with two layers. Whereas Velvet Ribbon is perfect on the first swipe. I will always prefer a bullet lipstick as I mentioned in this video, but I really appreciate Lisa's liquid formula. It's lovely. Velvet Rain is one of my favorite lippies in the Velvet formula from Lisa, I'm sure I'd love Rain in the Velveteen. One thing I'll mention is that there have been several people who experience the Velvet lipsticks breaking off at the base. I've only had that happen to one of my lipsticks, and it was after several years. To me, it was more my wear and tear on it, and not the formulation. I'm pretty gentle with my lipsticks, but there have been complaints of lipsticks in the velvet formula breaking. Keep that in mind if you're someone who applies with a bit of force. Thanks again for watching, and have a lovely weekend.
@@thelipstickgal Oh, thank you so much for replying so quickly, and so informatively! I truly appreciate your being so helpful and kind. I think I will give the velvet formula a try - I'm always so wary of lipstick running too dark and looking stark on me... Also, I feel like Velvet Ribbon is such a classic, being one of Lisa's first creations, and probably worth getting in the original formula - though the velveteen has so many merits, too, and I loooove my Velveteen Rain! Thank you for the caveat - I'll be sure to be gentle. I'm in France, so hoping the journey isn't too long and hard for my precious package! Again, thank you so much. I just love your intro in every video - you radiate warmth and positivity! Merci ! 🌹
@@FluffyFibers thanks so much for your kind words. I have over 20 velvets and have only had problems with 1. 🤷♀️ I think I was abusing it a bit, but it's still a lovely shade.
You are a breath of fresh air, thank you for reviewing these! Question, can you add a lip gloss or lip oil these for hydration or does this make the lipstick deteriorate?
Thanks so much for watching. A gloss or lip oil does make the velveteen start to break down, but it's not an instant mess. I'd pair it with a less oily product for hydration, but expect it to transfer. I pair these with a thicker balm or hydrating lipstick for hydration.
@@sylviaeneriz4808 The Luxuriously Lucent Lipsticks last about 4 hours on me, but they transfer to nearly everything. Cup, fork, cheek. The Ture Velvet matte formula wears really well, and I don't find a lot of transfer, but like all lipsticks, an oily substance will break it down. I've worn my favorite shade Velvet Ribbon for 12 hours without reapplying. It lasted all day through beverages, and 2 meals. I just had to use my finger to re-distribute the formula from the outside edge to the center where it wore off. It's the most comfortable matte lipstick formula I own. I have over 20 of them, and that's rare for me. I feel like Lisa makes the formulas I want to wear, and I'm always reaching for one.
@@thelipstickgal Thank you, that's super helpful! I'm thinking then that there must not be such a thing as a hydrating lipstick that doesn't transfer. It must be the magical unicorn that doesn't exist, correct? So what you're saying is that the only kind that you find that don't transfer too much and last for a while are the Pure Velvet matte formula but despite them being matte, they are not terribly drying. I just bought her liquid lipsticks that she just launched to see if they have staying power but I wonder if gloss worn over them will also make them transfer. Thank you for your videos I find them super helpful and also problematic because I want to buy every lipstick you post!
Great review. I bought Affair, and it indeed doesnt survive a sandwich. I like it the most so far applied sheerly and topped with clear gloss (from Rimmel). I dont like it applied opaquely. I can see all the fine lines in my lips and it feels drying to me. I won't get any more colors for now, but perhaps it'll grow on me over time. It is very easy to apply. I want the NYX Soft Matte lip cream finish and the wear of the Maybelline Matte Inks in one product. Is it possible? Idk😅
That combo would be perfect, but alas I haven't heard of anything that's as comfortable and wears as hardily as you're describing. I like these, and find I've been reaching for them more as the weather cools down. They're not my favorite new lip product, but I'm not mad at them.
@@KIkiJonatan I'm not sure the shades are exactly the same across the formulas. That's not been my experience, but I only have 2 shades in the Velveteen.
I tried them for "science." : ) Not really, but I was curious. I'll still default to my bullet lipstick by Lisa, but these are a great formula, and something that I'm willing to recommend.
Thank you for reviewing these liquid lipsticks! They definitely caught my eye, as most lip products do 😂 I have to admit, I’ve not tried any of Lisa’s lipsticks 😮 I do have the lipgloss & liner in Muse, but the shade goes weird on me. Somehow it will lean orange, and it never looks like the swatch. Think it wasn’t the right color for me. Anyway, I’m going to check out your other videos on Lisa’s products.
I have almost all of Lisa's lipsticks. They're my most reached for lip brand. These Velveteen Lips are a great formula, but I think I'll still be reaching for my bullet lipsticks. I have been having fun wearing these though. I've had several other people describe how some shades of lipstick pull orange on them. Have you tried mixing it with a cooler tone? If one color doesn't suit me perfectly, I cocktail it with something different to create an entirely new shade. Just a suggestion. You might already be doing this, but . . . I thought I'd mention it anyway.
I'm forever mixing shades. Even if the formulas are different. I'll start out with a matte and then layer a glossy, sheer lipstick over. Sometimes I'll have 4 or 5 different lip colors on. I'm usually cocktailing different shades together. I don't always do it in my videos because I try to list all the products I've used in the description bar. (and I get lazy) In daily life, I'm forever mixing shades.
@@thelipstickgal sounds like I need to give this a try 😂 Another shade I struggle to use is CT Pillow Talk, it turns warm… only have the minis so it wasn’t a big loss and I thought the formula was a little dry.
I have Fawn, Muse, and Rain. I have sensitive dry lips, and these are uncomfortable on me. I was mis-lead into thinking that these are moisturizing. These are just the usual liquid lip formula. The colors are beautiful, and the application is smooth and easy. I, unfortunately, can't wear them comfortably though.
I'm so sorry. The older I get, the more persnickety my lips get. I found that this formula isn't really moisturizing, but keeps my lips in the state they were in before applying this product. If my lips start out perfectly hydrated, they're comfortable and look good by the end of the day. If I apply this over dry lips, my lips are still dry at the end of the day. That's been my experience; I know we're all different. I found that this formula doesn't suck the life out of my lips the same way the liquid lipsticks from KVD, Dose of Colors, Anastasia Beverly Hills, ColourPop and other brands used to. Those brands are the reason that I never fell in low with liquid lipstick. (and that was years ago, and my lips were not as dry as they are now) Have you tried adding a hydrating balm over the top? I did that when I wore Ribbon as a light, fluffy layer tapped in. I added the Smith's Strawberry Lip Balm over the top, and it kept my lips hydrated and the color didn't go everywhere.
@@thelipstickgal I've decided that I will wear them as a stain with balm over them. At least these won't melt in my purse during this hot humid summer in N FL. I especially like the Fawn and Rain colors. These don't show lines in my lips, so a definite plus there.
For me it didnt feel long lastig at all, I had to to reapply within the hour and even less if I ate. Not sure if I'm doing it wrong but i tried applying it on dry lips waiting for it to dry...it still dissappears within the hour! For me the velvets last linger on my lips so i will stick to the velvets
I'm sorry this formula didn't work for you. I've been enjoying it while knowing I'll need to touch it up if I eat anything. It has been great for days when I'm busy running errands, and don't have time to snack. My lips look perfect. Thanks for watching.

It's not expensive as far as jewelry goes, but it's a fun piece. It reminds me of the saying "May the bridges I burn light my way." I wear it to remind myself to let go of things/relationships that hold me back or weigh me down.
I was waiting for this review! I am contemplating getting Jazz. I had this cheapo Karity liquid lip in Tick Tick Boom that was the best color on me, but the formula suuuuuuucked. Drying, all the issues. But this I could do! 🎉
I really like this formula. It keeps my lips in whatever state they were in when first applied. If my lips were hydrated when applied, they were still in good condition at the end of the day. If they were dry and flaking, they stayed that way throughout the day. I wouldn't say this is hydrating the same way the Luxuriously Lucent Lipsticks are, but they're a great formula. They don't dry my lips out at all. (As long as I start it with moisturized lips)
I too prefer the far more chic feel of the velvets (both bullet and packaging) and I was so happy when the liquid lipstick era was over. I trust Lisa but these will not get used, because I will always reach for the bullets. Happy for everyone who did want Lisa to make good liquid lipsticks.
Yes, it was much requested. I don't expect I'll prefer this over the Velvets, but it's a great formula. I'm glad she has it as an option for those who love a liquid lipstick.
Velvet Muse was my first Lisa Eldridge lipstick, and I’m really only interested in Velveteen Muse! Especially now that you said it seems deeper than the bullet lipstick.

jazz definitely bleeds, application is tricky and it takes a good amount of time. but like you said, it doesn't go anywhere other than the middle parts of lips upon eating & talking... 1-2 coats of coverage is plenty enough!
the formula reminds me of tarteist liquid lipstick's slippery, silicone-y texture with dose of colors' thin, full on matte, waterproof longevity. not as drying as those kvd liquid lipsticks although the colors look veryyyy similar to lolita, etc...
absolutely loved the color jazz in velveteen! i don't think i could wear jazz in the original velvet formula, a dark color has to be smudge proof for me to wear on my lips. it's so sexy and mysterious, definitely needed in my collection. looking forward to mixing it with other lipsticks to add an oomph to my existing colors...
fawn, muse, affair... dried down colors look veryyy similar to me. they are not as different than each other as much as in the original velvet lipstick form. they may be nice colors for the fall, but not for the summer time for me. last year's collections of 'luxuriously lucent lip colours 'were much more summer appropriate imho.

This Velveteen Lip is like a traditional liquid lip that dries down and doesn't transfer. It doesn't hold up to eating particularly well, but I love how easy it is to reapply just where I need it without the formula getting weird. It doesn't get goopy or ball up with extra layers.
I feel like the Soft Spoken Lip creams pull terracotta (orange) on me. They're lovely, but I don't get the variety in color that this formula offers. I have 3 of the "nude" shades and they all look like a slightly deeper version of themselves. Light nude terracotta, medium nude terracotta, and deep nude terracotta. I have Petal, Tender and Intuition. The only one that doesn't look terracotta on me is the bright strawberry shade in Flutter.
Some colors are easier to wear in a bullet form. I think with Ribbon, which I consider to be a statement color, I'd want it in a budge-proof formula, which this seems to (almost) be. I think I'm sold after watching this review. Thanks so much for biting the bullet on these. Your review is much appreciated.
I've tried liquid lipsticks in the past; they either dry down too much, or they don't dry down at all and transfer the whole time. Whenever I wanted to wear a red and didn't want it to move I'd use a lip stain from ColourPop, but those have a chemical taste so I'm not a fan of them. I almost went for the Charlotte Tilbury lip blur in Ruby, but this one came out just in time to change my mind.
I haven't tried the CT lip blurs. I used to have one of her liquid lipsticks from years ago and never enjoyed the formula. It was drying and uncomfortable. Maybe it's time to see what the lip blurs are like. 🤷♀️
I've been wearing ribbon every day since it arrived. I've never been able to wear a liquid lipstick multiple days in a row because my lips always dried out. Not with this formula. It doesn't nourish my lips, but rather maintains them in their original state. If I start with perfectly hydrated lips, they'll still be comfortable and hydrated when I finally take the formula off.
Very helpful review! This answered all my questions! I'm also a bullet girl, but I think I will give Ribbon and maybe Rain a try!
Two of my favorite shades. (Rain and Ribbon)
I'm really impressed with this formula. Today's the third day in a row I've worn ribbon, and my lips aren't freaking out. I can't wear any other liquid lip that dries down three days in a row. I'm super impressed. I do spend the night in a heavy layer of sleeping mask, and I always put on a balm straight out of the shower. My lips are never bare. I think it helps.
❤😊Hey your blush and rest of your makeup looks really nice today. 😁😍🌸
Thanks for your videos and I never want to even think about liquid lipsticks lol. They just don't interest me. It looks nice on you though. 💐
Thanks! I know so many of us just aren't the liquid lipstick type. That's usually me, but I had to know. I appreciate Lisa's products so much, I wanted to try this new formulation. I didn't want to get more than the two I thought I'd use the most, and it's very unlikely that I'll continue to get more shades, but it's a good formula.
I have been on the hunt for the perfect transfer-proof lip for years. I really, really, really don't like it when my lip color transfers to my glass. With all my experimentation, I am currently using Maybelline Vinyl Lip Ink. It is transferproof and lasts through drinking or light snacks, but I lose most of it if I eat a meal. And doing a "touch up" with that formula isn't the best. So. Now I need to decide whether or not to fork out the money for the Lisa Eldridge. Thank you for your review. It was helpful.
BTW, that red color looks good on you!
Lisa's red in Ribbon is my all time favorite red shade! It's so good. These to transfer a bit, and break down when eating. They're easy to reapply. I've tried the Maybelline Vinyl Ink, but I always get it stuck to my teeth or gums. When it's a bright red, it's so obvious! I've been struggling to find a hydrating formula that doesn't transfer. I'd avoid the Dior Transfer proof, they're amazingly drying and build up on the inside rim of your lip.
@@thelipstickgal , thank you for your input. I just found your channel and subscribed right away. I am making my way through many of your past videos. I think we are close to the same skin tone (and I am combination to oily), so I'm checking out your videos on foundations, bronzers and blushes. Thanks again!
Thanks for subscribing. I appreciate it. I'm always happy to talk makeup or skincare: it brings me so much joy.
Yessss queennnnn I was waiting for this♥️♥️ thank you so much!
Happy to review these for you. Thanks for watching!
I am not a liquid lipstick person - EXCEPT the Chanel Le Rouge Duo Ultra Tenue. By far my favorite long wearing formula. I love the range of shades, the wear time, the fact that they don’t dry out my lips (thanks, in part, to the glossy end).
I almost purchased Rain, because it’s the only color that I thought might get a decent amount of wear by me (I have the bullet & love it), but wanted to hear more reviews, first. So, thank you! I probably have a dozen or more shades of Lisa’s bullet lipsticks & a 5 or 6 glosses, and I feel like many of the lipsticks pull quite different on me than what I see in her swatches & IG videos. I have that issue with plenty of shades, but I’ve learned to hold off on her shades until I see lots of swatches & reviews…..unless I just can’t help myself with a particular shade. 😆
Thanks again for the review!
Thanks for making the time to watch, and for recommending the Chanel Le Rouge Duo Ultra Tenue. I'll have to check it out.
I love Velvet Rain too, but decided to pick up the shades of Velveteen Lips that corresponded to my most used Velvet Lipsticks. Ribbon and Muse. I'm very happy with my purchase. I know I'm fortunate to have a neutral skin tone; most shades work for me. It sounds like you have a beautiful collection of her lip products already.
I was super impressed with the comfort level this liquid lip provided and how easy it was to reapply over itself for touch up even after several hours.
I hate liquid lipstick but since it's Lisa I decided to give it a try. I bought RAIN and I love it. Used it as a blush as well, which wore well but you only need the tiniest amount. The formula is surprisingly comfortable and I also found it very easy to use. I'll be buying more colours for sure 😊
@@joannamadalinska3596 I know, right? I normally don't purchase liquid lipsticks unless they're the type that don't dry down, and are nourishing. This one has completely surprised me. I purchased it because Lisa created it, and in her video showing all the colors, she mentioned how she doesn't like dry liquid lips. I'm really very impressed. I still like her Velvet lipsticks more, but these are amazingly good.
@@joannamadalinska3596 thank you for the information! I appreciate it. 😊
Thank you for sharing. I too prefer traditional lipstick. But I can see there is a time for liquid trasfer proof. Summer heat, when you do not want trasfer to glass or just cant touch up. 😍
Yes, this won't be by first go to, but it's a great formulation. I'll always prefer a bullet lipstick, but it's nice to have options. Thanks for watching.
I have found the same result of it having an issue not surviving through nibbles - FYI you can also use the bullet version to great effect for touch ups
I discovered that today. I used Muse, and touched up with the bullet and had wonderful results. What a great and easy to use liquid lipstick formula.
thanks for reviewing beautiful Rebecca! They both look nice but the ribbon looks stunning on you! Really beautiful! I'm actually interested in the affair and fawn on the velveteen formula; but planning to get the ribbon and muse on the velvet formula. On another subject, what are those eyeglasses you're wearing please? They're gorgeous! ❤😘
The glasses are from years ago. BCBG, and they're the only ones in my collection with both distance and reading areas in the lenses. I need to get another pair of progressives, but they're so expensive. I don't think I would ever feel attractive in a pair of bifocals. 👵
I'm really loving the lipsticks. Ribbon especially. Today's the third day in a row I'm wearing it. I feel like Fawn would be closer to what I'm looking for. A nude, but not too dark nude shade.
The only liquids that work on me are the Chanel ones, pricey as heck but worth it for me. I need try one of Lisa’s think I’m going to get Rain, those looked so pretty on you.❤
I haven't tried any of the ones from Chanel. I'm not really a liquid lipstick person, but these are lovely.
Yup buying! You’re like my Tia lol who shares makeup with the niece 😂
I would love to have a Tia like that! These are good, but I'm more of a bullet lipstick person. It's my preferred formulation for lip products.
@@thelipstickgalLOL honestly...I'm lazy...just a quick swipe and I dont want to think about it :p
Thank you for the video! However, like most of the other comments, I'm never going back to liquid lipstick. Love LE's lipsticks though :)
Yes, I know it's not for everyone. Knowing what you like, and what works for you is such an important part of makeup purchasing. Even though these are a great formula, I probably wouldn't have purchased these unless I had this channel. It's good that you know, and stick to your makeup preferences.
Hello! Thank you so much for this video! I got Velveteen Rain for myself and I think as a fellow super fair brunette, you would love it too - it is like a warm rose, pulling almost red, and is quite enlivening! I am now debating whether to get the Ribbon shade in the Velvet or in the Velveteen formulation... I'm sensing the Velveteen tends to get darker as you build it up - that is definitely the case with Rain... Has that been your experience and would you say that Velveteen Ribbon pulls a little darker than Velvet Ribbon as a result? Thank you so much for your wealth of videos, I have been watching so many of them lately. They are an absolute treat! Have a lovely weekend!
Thanks so much for watching today. Yes, Velveteen Ribbon is much darker once you get complete coverage. I find that I have to build it with two layers. Whereas Velvet Ribbon is perfect on the first swipe. I will always prefer a bullet lipstick as I mentioned in this video, but I really appreciate Lisa's liquid formula. It's lovely.
Velvet Rain is one of my favorite lippies in the Velvet formula from Lisa, I'm sure I'd love Rain in the Velveteen.
One thing I'll mention is that there have been several people who experience the Velvet lipsticks breaking off at the base. I've only had that happen to one of my lipsticks, and it was after several years. To me, it was more my wear and tear on it, and not the formulation. I'm pretty gentle with my lipsticks, but there have been complaints of lipsticks in the velvet formula breaking. Keep that in mind if you're someone who applies with a bit of force. Thanks again for watching, and have a lovely weekend.
@@thelipstickgal Oh, thank you so much for replying so quickly, and so informatively! I truly appreciate your being so helpful and kind. I think I will give the velvet formula a try - I'm always so wary of lipstick running too dark and looking stark on me... Also, I feel like Velvet Ribbon is such a classic, being one of Lisa's first creations, and probably worth getting in the original formula - though the velveteen has so many merits, too, and I loooove my Velveteen Rain! Thank you for the caveat - I'll be sure to be gentle. I'm in France, so hoping the journey isn't too long and hard for my precious package! Again, thank you so much. I just love your intro in every video - you radiate warmth and positivity! Merci ! 🌹
@@FluffyFibers thanks so much for your kind words. I have over 20 velvets and have only had problems with 1. 🤷♀️ I think I was abusing it a bit, but it's still a lovely shade.
You are a breath of fresh air, thank you for reviewing these! Question, can you add a lip gloss or lip oil these for hydration or does this make the lipstick deteriorate?
Thanks so much for watching. A gloss or lip oil does make the velveteen start to break down, but it's not an instant mess. I'd pair it with a less oily product for hydration, but expect it to transfer. I pair these with a thicker balm or hydrating lipstick for hydration.
Thank you!
Does Lisa Eldridge have a bullet lipstick that is hydrating that doesn’t transfer so easily?
@@sylviaeneriz4808 The Luxuriously Lucent Lipsticks last about 4 hours on me, but they transfer to nearly everything. Cup, fork, cheek. The Ture Velvet matte formula wears really well, and I don't find a lot of transfer, but like all lipsticks, an oily substance will break it down. I've worn my favorite shade Velvet Ribbon for 12 hours without reapplying. It lasted all day through beverages, and 2 meals. I just had to use my finger to re-distribute the formula from the outside edge to the center where it wore off. It's the most comfortable matte lipstick formula I own. I have over 20 of them, and that's rare for me. I feel like Lisa makes the formulas I want to wear, and I'm always reaching for one.
@@thelipstickgal Thank you, that's super helpful! I'm thinking then that there must not be such a thing as a hydrating lipstick that doesn't transfer. It must be the magical unicorn that doesn't exist, correct? So what you're saying is that the only kind that you find that don't transfer too much and last for a while are the Pure Velvet matte formula but despite them being matte, they are not terribly drying. I just bought her liquid lipsticks that she just launched to see if they have staying power but I wonder if gloss worn over them will also make them transfer. Thank you for your videos I find them super helpful and also problematic because I want to buy every lipstick you post!
Great review. I bought Affair, and it indeed doesnt survive a sandwich. I like it the most so far applied sheerly and topped with clear gloss (from Rimmel). I dont like it applied opaquely. I can see all the fine lines in my lips and it feels drying to me. I won't get any more colors for now, but perhaps it'll grow on me over time. It is very easy to apply. I want the NYX Soft Matte lip cream finish and the wear of the Maybelline Matte Inks in one product. Is it possible? Idk😅
That combo would be perfect, but alas I haven't heard of anything that's as comfortable and wears as hardily as you're describing.
I like these, and find I've been reaching for them more as the weather cools down. They're not my favorite new lip product, but I'm not mad at them.
hi, i have shade affair in the bullet , curious about the velveteen do you think they have the same color on the lips ?
@@KIkiJonatan I'm not sure the shades are exactly the same across the formulas. That's not been my experience, but I only have 2 shades in the Velveteen.
I never wear a liquid lip. They are very pretty. I am a bullet Gal. Have a great week ❌️ ⭕️
I tried them for "science." : ) Not really, but I was curious. I'll still default to my bullet lipstick by Lisa, but these are a great formula, and something that I'm willing to recommend.
Thank you for reviewing these liquid lipsticks! They definitely caught my eye, as most lip products do 😂
I have to admit, I’ve not tried any of Lisa’s lipsticks 😮 I do have the lipgloss & liner in Muse, but the shade goes weird on me. Somehow it will lean orange, and it never looks like the swatch. Think it wasn’t the right color for me.
Anyway, I’m going to check out your other videos on Lisa’s products.
I have almost all of Lisa's lipsticks. They're my most reached for lip brand. These Velveteen Lips are a great formula, but I think I'll still be reaching for my bullet lipsticks. I have been having fun wearing these though.
I've had several other people describe how some shades of lipstick pull orange on them. Have you tried mixing it with a cooler tone? If one color doesn't suit me perfectly, I cocktail it with something different to create an entirely new shade. Just a suggestion. You might already be doing this, but . . . I thought I'd mention it anyway.
@@thelipstickgal actually, I hadn’t tried mixing it. That’s a good idea!
I'm forever mixing shades. Even if the formulas are different. I'll start out with a matte and then layer a glossy, sheer lipstick over. Sometimes I'll have 4 or 5 different lip colors on. I'm usually cocktailing different shades together. I don't always do it in my videos because I try to list all the products I've used in the description bar. (and I get lazy) In daily life, I'm forever mixing shades.
@@thelipstickgal sounds like I need to give this a try 😂 Another shade I struggle to use is CT Pillow Talk, it turns warm… only have the minis so it wasn’t a big loss and I thought the formula was a little dry.
@@EngagingQuill darker or cooler liner and a layer of something more moisturizing on top. It might help
I have resisted ordering, but was tempted by Muse. I was hoping more for a mauve though.
I was surprised that it was do different from the original shade. It was a bit disappointing to me. : (
@@thelipstickgal I really appreciate your swatches. It was very helpful.
@@sher3196 my pleasure.
I have Fawn, Muse, and Rain. I have sensitive dry lips, and these are uncomfortable on me. I was mis-lead into thinking that these are moisturizing. These are just the usual liquid lip formula. The colors are beautiful, and the application is smooth and easy. I, unfortunately, can't wear them comfortably though.
I'm so sorry. The older I get, the more persnickety my lips get. I found that this formula isn't really moisturizing, but keeps my lips in the state they were in before applying this product. If my lips start out perfectly hydrated, they're comfortable and look good by the end of the day. If I apply this over dry lips, my lips are still dry at the end of the day. That's been my experience; I know we're all different.
I found that this formula doesn't suck the life out of my lips the same way the liquid lipsticks from KVD, Dose of Colors, Anastasia Beverly Hills, ColourPop and other brands used to. Those brands are the reason that I never fell in low with liquid lipstick. (and that was years ago, and my lips were not as dry as they are now)
Have you tried adding a hydrating balm over the top? I did that when I wore Ribbon as a light, fluffy layer tapped in. I added the Smith's Strawberry Lip Balm over the top, and it kept my lips hydrated and the color didn't go everywhere.
@@thelipstickgal I've decided that I will wear them as a stain with balm over them. At least these won't melt in my purse during this hot humid summer in N FL. I especially like the Fawn and Rain colors. These don't show lines in my lips, so a definite plus there.
For me it didnt feel long lastig at all, I had to to reapply within the hour and even less if I ate. Not sure if I'm doing it wrong but i tried applying it on dry lips waiting for it to dry...it still dissappears within the hour! For me the velvets last linger on my lips so i will stick to the velvets
I'm sorry this formula didn't work for you. I've been enjoying it while knowing I'll need to touch it up if I eat anything. It has been great for days when I'm busy running errands, and don't have time to snack. My lips look perfect. Thanks for watching.
What's the brand of your red match necklace? 😍

It's from Gabi Rielle. It's not expensive as far as jewelry goes, but it's a fun piece. It reminds me of the saying "May the bridges I burn light my way." I wear it to remind myself to let go of things/relationships that hold me back or weigh me down.
I was waiting for this review! I am contemplating getting Jazz. I had this cheapo Karity liquid lip in Tick Tick Boom that was the best color on me, but the formula suuuuuuucked. Drying, all the issues. But this I could do! 🎉
I really like this formula. It keeps my lips in whatever state they were in when first applied. If my lips were hydrated when applied, they were still in good condition at the end of the day. If they were dry and flaking, they stayed that way throughout the day. I wouldn't say this is hydrating the same way the Luxuriously Lucent Lipsticks are, but they're a great formula. They don't dry my lips out at all. (As long as I start it with moisturized lips)
