Review: Colourpop Ultra Matte Liquid Lipstick

With the recent hype of ultra matte lipstick, I was once again encouraged brainwashed to buy one of those most coveted Colourpop Ultra Matte. At first, I was skeptical to get the brand because of the price. With it's price, I can get 2-3 of those drugstore kind of lipstick but the beauty addict in me badly wants to try it so there you go. You know what happened next. 

I bought this from Suzanne's Emporium. The Beeper was a brand new for P320 while Monday and Thursday were used few times and it was given to me for P280. It's pretty cheap knowing that its counterparts from different shops are priced higher that what was stated. Who wouldn't grabbed a deal like this, right? So without second thought, I immediately bought it! 

I immediately used the products upon arrival due to my excitement without thinking of shooting it. As a blogger, I normally do that because I might ruined the product's packaging or content. Especially with Colourpop Matte whit the silver cap, the label were all removed easily. As of this writing, it actually disappeared already unlike the one with a black cap. 

At this time and age, there are a lot of shops which sells replica or fake counterparts. That's why I loved Suzanne's Emporium because I am confident that everything they have is 101% legit. To know how to spot an original Colourpop, there should be a very slight space between the cap and the lid part. It is pretty obvious with the silver one but not with the black one. Some people said that fake CP has an intense odor and original doesn't have. I do not own a fake CP and I can't differentiate the too. 

The wand should also be white as others say. I want to buy a fake one for comparison but I think it's just a waste on money since I won't be using them anyway. 

Monday - It is a nude shade with peach undertone. It is a lightweight formula that smoothly glides on the lips. Pigmentation is great because one swipe goes a long way. Plus it's transfer-proof and can lasts really long. 

Thursday - It is a brilliant red violet color which also has undeniably intense pigmentation. It is transfer-proof and can also lasts longer on the lips. I remember using this one time during a school event and after almost half day, it was still there. It became quite cracky though so it's better to clean and reapply than flaunt your cracked lips. 

Beeper - One of the reason why I bought this batch is because of Beeper. I think the color was so popular, it made me buy all three. Beeper is a like a warm mid-tone taupe. This also has good pigmentation on me and can last long but I find it too dark on me sometimes. 

So my take on these colors is that I like Monday a lot. It is something wearable everyday and for me, it can goes well with any outfit. As for Thursday, I usually use it whenever I wanted to make an impression. Or on days that I am super tired and when I'm in doubt. I don't go for red. I use this instead. I feel that Beeper is something that makes me fierce so I use this when teaching my worst students haha. 

Yay for me! (｡◕‿  ◕｡)

I used all three on this review without lip liner for more accurate color. My issue with Colourpop though is sometimes it gets pretty drying for me. I remember it stayed on my lips for 6-7 hours but after removing it with a makeup remover, it gets seriously chapped and dry. I almost hated the brand for that. 

However, I would like to explore more colors though if given the chance and I would like to try their satin line too! I think I need to explore Colourpop more to know what they have to offer. 💜
