Ever since liquid lipsticks came onto the market a few years ago, I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect formula. One that isn’t too dry but is still long-lasting and comfortable on the lips. If you’re not familiar with liquid lipsticks, they’re basically a melted down traditional lipstick that is made for lasting color and matte finish. The application style is similar to a lip gloss – packaged in a tube with a doe foot applicator and thin formula. Unlike a lip gloss, liquid lipsticks are much less sticky and more pigmented. That’s where the complication usually comes in, though – pigmentation often means dry and crumbly texture. It is hard to get one without the other but I found it! After testing a ton of different brands and formulas, I have narrowed it down to my favorite liquid lipstick formula ever – Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick.
This formula is my favorite because it’s so comfortable on the lips. It literally feels like there is nothing there – it is not dry in any way. That being said, it packs a serious punch when it comes to color. With just one swipe, it covers the lips in a completely opaque shade. Once the lipstick dries, it doesn’t transfer or budge for hours upon hours. Another one of my favorite things about this formula is that when it does finally wear off, it wears off evenly. In other words, hours after you applied your lipstick, the color will gradually fade away as opposed to leaving you with the dreaded “no color on the inside, all the color on the outside” look (which comes with a much more vulgar name that I will not mention).
As far as shade range goes, Kat Von D pretty much kills the game with this product. The Everlasting Liquid Lipstick line has over 35 shades that cover everything from the nudest nude to the brightest red to matte black. It literally has it all! My personal favorite is Lovesick (pictured in the first photo), a mauve nude shade, which has become my go-to everyday color. I also love the cult-classic Lolita shade (pictured in the second photo) that put this entire line into the spotlight to begin with. Lolita is a chestnut rose shade that I am obsessed with for fall and winter.
Have you ever tried the Everlasting Liquid Lipsticks? Do you love them as much as I do?
