No more intro sorry!
Burberry Lip Velvet Long Lasting Matte Lipsticks
Straight to the point pro's:
Creamy and Comfortable.
(not-s0) matte but they last.
Don't get me wrong, the not-so matte leans on the positive side still.
This lipstick won't sap out the moisture from your lips;
but since when I want my matte "MATTE"
this doesn't fit the bill.
But if you wanted a matte lipstick that would still make your lips
comfy with colour,
by all means grab at least 1 tube!
The colors as I have noticed
has this tinge of brown undertone to it
(wrinkles a my nose a lil bit with that);
loved the packaging tho...
a matte pewter/jet grey coloured casing
and still with that iconic Burberry pattern.
Unlike the Lip Mist and Lip Cover's shiny tubes,
this one attractS no fingerprints.
I recall the Burberry peeps told me during this
that the matte range is coming out on Dec....
and yes it came out on time.
When I laid my eyes on these 12 babies,
I had the thumpety thump thump for one tube...
yes just one tube.
Pink Azalea No. 308
and the more I fell in love when I tried it on my lips.
Color was just the epitome of that pinky-red shade.
Then they told me it was actually the shade
Cara Delevingne, Burberry Beauty Ambasssador wore here:

but wait, it can't be..
so when I reached home I researched ;
found out that she also paired it with a plum lip pencil.
pfft.
anyway going back to the velvets....
as mentioned I have tried Bright Poppy on my lips...
and checked how many necks would get strained from women
who would wonder what shade's stamped on my lips.
I got about more than 8?
with the exception of a lady who even followed me with a gaze...
while we were taking the escalator...
ahuh..
opposite sides
so just imagine that lol!
My TOP 3 Picks
Pink Azalea 308
Bright Poppy 311
Military Red 310
Pink Azalea 308
Bright Poppy 311
Military Red 310
Yes you read it right! The red is at the bottom list.
I was having high hopes this would surpass my HG red lippie, but no.
I am yearning for more of that true red vibe to it.
The Pink Azalea wins for me.
When I saw it, it is as if telling me
"I am so yours, take me home..yes?"
For Bright Poppy, it's a magenta plum;
a fun color to own but if you have a MAC Rebel already,
give this a pass.
Another product to check out is the
Burberry Velvet Foundation...
I still have my Burberry Sheer Glow Foundation so I did not
check this out further;
besides I already expressed my 1st impressions of it here.
Bright Poppy on yours truly's

I have applied Pink Azalea on my lips before and holy camoly
