KIKO Velvet Mat Lipsticks Swatches and Review

Official description:

The evolution of mat lipstick: an ultra-silky, virtually "weightless" texture that unveils unexpected moisturizing and soothing qualities in an opaque and infinitely velvety finish.

Light and comfortable, thanks to the exclusive high-melting waxes, Velvet Mat caresses your lips with impeccable high pigmentation colour for a high coverage effect.

Enriched with K2 Repulp, multi-function plant extract active ingredient, the Velvet Matformula keeps your lips beautiful, working on 3 different levels:

- Moisturizing and plumping action*: K2 Repulp stimulates the production Hyaluronic acid, helping to keep the moisture level of the lips ideal, increasing their fullness.

- Energizing and revitalizing action*: cellular vitality is reactivated giving your lips a strong healthy look.

- Aging prevention*: thanks to its active ingredients, production of collagen and Sirtuin 1 (protein of youth) improved cellular longevity is stimulated for younger looking lips.

It has 15 shades in total, you can buy them here, has ultra silky and weightless texture, does not drag on the lips, does not emphasize any dry patches, in fact does a great job of concealing it, does not provide moisture, but doesn't really dry my lips either. Sounds familiar? Yes, the formular is almost identical to the Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution lipstick range, but only 1/3 of the cost!

Here I have 608 which is described as apple red, it is the most accurate description! Not too bright, not too mature.

611 autumn pink which is a medium pinky mauve shade, it's slightly darker than my natural lip colour, it actually really reminds me of autumn, I would not be using this in summer as it does add that bit of "weight" to your makeup look.

614 dark berry which is a warm berry shade, pulls purple instead of red on the lips. It is such a gorgeous shade for winter! I was using this shade in my profile picture.
