Product Review: Makeup Monsters Matte Liquid Lipsticks

Look out  Liquid Lipstick Lovers there's a new Lippie in town!!!!!

 

I'll say it one more time, I LOVE LIQUID LIPSTICKS!!!!!! I live for the best formulas.... Also it only takes one wear for me to know if it's for me or not. Meaning, sometimes you just have to take a chance and try one or two of the brand.  Let me break it down, so you can understand. When purchasing liquid lipsticks you always want to read the product reviews, this is a must. Knowing what other customers think about a product will make it easier for you to decide whether you would like it or not.

About 4 months ago I met a lovely fellow Lipstick Lover on Instagram - @Lipstick_Po. She was so nice to me, meaning she answered the millions of questions I had about lipsticks.  I asked her, "What are some of your favorite Lipstick brands?",  and she mentioned Makeup Monsters. At that time I had never heard of the brand, so I decided to do some research. Look what I found!!

Facts about Makeup Monsters Matte Liquid Lipstick - (taken for website)

Retail Price: $15.95
Gluten & Paraben Free / Net Wt 6g / 6ml (0.20oz)
Handmade with love in small batches to ensure freshness and quality.


Application Tips: Shake well! Exfoliate and moisturize lips before use. Avoid oily foods to prevent ruining the finish of this product. Allow 2 minutes to dry. Their unique touchproof formula was designed on the idea that no one should have to sacrifice comfort for durability. This thin and lightweight formula is different from any other brand out there bringing comfortable wear while giving a pigmented and long lasting touchproof look.

My 2¢: Let's just say I ordered two more on last Friday when they restocked and it's taking everything in me not to order more. When it comes to liquid lipsticks some things are just a must for me. Comfortable ✓, Fast drying ✓, and Smudged Proof ✓(not smearing all over my face and clothes). Sweet and Simple I love the two shades I purchased and I can't want to try more.  --------> Go to their website today, while they are in stock. Makeup Monsters Cosmetics are apart of my TOP 3 Liquid Lipsticks.

My Truth: Red Lipstick Scares Me

I already know! You are looking at this Blog Post Title like:

I bet you are saying -- not the woman who we have seen wear Purple, Green, Black and Blue Lipstick. Yes it's true. I am so afraid of Bold Red Lipsticks.

What's so weird about this whole ordeal is, once I get it on you'll never know that I'm feeling self conscious or worried about it.

The Number ONE Rule for rocking Lipstick is "Rock it well".

 Even if you don't like how it looks on you, hold your head up high and act if it's the best color you're worn. I guarantee at least one person will pay you a compliment.

Ok... Now that you know the lipstick rule, let's get back to me and this Red Lipstick thing. Being a Woman of Color (W.O.C.) with full lips, red lipstick is not a color that I automatically gravitate to. My Lipstick collection consists of about 36 lipsticks -- only two of them are what I would consider true classic reds.

My RED Lipstick Collection

#1- Ofra Cosmetics Long Lasting Liquid Lipstick - Atlantic City.

 

 

Useful facts about Ofra Cosmetics Long Lasting Liquid Lipsticks ( taken from website) :

These liquid lipsticks are creamy and soft in texture. They moisturize the lips and create a long lasting lipstick effect. No need to use lip liner, this lipstick gives a beautiful edge to your lip look!  The formula is a matte color formula but if you want to add some shine to your liquid lipstick just add some lip gloss. All shades contain antioxidants and Vitamin E while the formula provides a lightweight layer of lasting color to make you look stunning all day. Color will last in a perfect condition up to five hours without eating or drinking. For best results do not eat or drink for 15 minutes after applying.

 I love the formula of this lipstick. What's unique about Ofra Cosmetics Long Lasting Liquid Lipsticks is that they are very creamy and mixable. It seems as if they took a tube of lipstick and put it in a container with a wand applicator. You can take any lip pencil (especially MAC Cosmetics  Nightmoth or Chestnut) and combine it with these lippies and totally change the face of them.

#2- Jeffree Star Velour Liquid Lipstick - REDRUM

Useful facts about Jeffree Star Velour Liquid Lipsticks( taken from website) :

These 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!)

According to Jeffree Star Velour Liquid Lipstick website REDRUM is described as:

"The perfect red"

This matte cool toned red looks amazing on any skin tone.

Jeffree Star Cosmetics has my attention right now. Although REDRUM not a shade that I would grab daily, when I wear it, I do smile.  You can never go wrong with that classy red lip. However it takes a special lipstick lover to enjoy and respect the power of the "Red Lip"
