Jeffree Star Velour Liquid Lipstick 'Mannequin'

After Cocktail Cosmetics finally got a shade that I liked in stock of Jeffree Star's Velour Liquid Lipsticks I added it to my bag straight away and immediately went through the checkout. There are so many mixed reviews on these lipsticks, some stemming from their love or hate of the creator, which sometimes others have described as influencing how honest these people are when actually discussing the product itself, and at times it is difficult to distinguish between these. This is why I wanted to buy and try one myself, so I could find out the truth and see how well I would get on with these lipsticks. 

I chose the shade 'mannequin' not my first choice of colour I wanted to try, but still a nice shade, and the only one that Cocktail Cosmetics had in stock at that time that I would actually wear. It is a browny nude shade, described as a pale cool-toned nude, however I find that once applied to my lips and dried, it appears slightly than it does when swatched. 

On me, this lasted for the majority of the day, only coming off slightly after eating and drinking, and this is when I needed to re apply for the perfect finish, however it is definitely a long lasting lipstick, that is not too drying as long as you exfoliate and moisturise your lips as I found that it did stick to my dry lips a bit if I did not prepare them beforehand. 

I like that these are vegan and cruelty free. The packaging is gorgeous, the scent is not too overpowering but it is not my favourite smell, I own a fair few other liquid lipsticks that I prefer the smell of. 

I will definitely be purchasing a few more of these in the future, I have my eyes set on 'Posh Spice' and 'Celebrity Skin'. 

Do you own any of these liquid lipsticks?
