Australis Velourlips

I'm sure you all know what it is, unless you've been living under a rock all this time they are well raved about in the makeup community and they are the Australis Velourlips liquid lipsticks, these come in 15 different shades which 5 new shades they have released are included. They did come out with limited edition shades in the AC collection but I think it was only 2 or 3 Velourlips. You can purchase these products from Priceline $9.95 or Crush Cosmetics $10, Big W, Kmart or on the Australis' website, which shows these are affordable so here are the colours that I have in my collection:

PAR-EE

PAR-EE is a brown based nude colour, if I had to choose a nude shade that suits my complexion it would be no doubt this one.

NY-CEE

NY-CEE is a slight orange based red, I honestly haven't worn this out as yet but I've seen Shannon from Shaanxo wore it in one of her videos and it looked gorgeous on her.

TOK-I-O

TOK-I-O is a neon purple colour unfortunately this applied the most patchy out of my collection and you can see it in the lip swatch.

SHANG-HI

SHANG-HI is a deep purple/pink shade and is one of the colours that Australis recently released, it is similar to Mac Cosmetics lipstick in Flat Out Fabolous.

RO-MA

RO-MA is a light purple based pink shade and applies the most lightest, the lip swatch I applied 2 layers and it still wasn't pigmented. This is my recent purchase online when I recieved it in the mail, I was sure I made a mistake as the bottle made it look like a coral pink but I was wrong.

LUN-DUN

LUN-DUN would have to be my favorite out of the bunch as it is a beautiful barbie pink colour and its something I can wear everyday.

MA-I-BOO

Lastly MA-I-BOO is a bright neon pink colour, I like to mix this with TOK-I-O giving it a nice purple based colour and less dramatic for day wear.

Application:

These can be very drying so you only need to apply 1-2 times on the lips but do not go over that as they can be a bit flaky because the product did not set in result to it being sticky on the lips, if they are drying on the lips you can simply prep with a nice moisturising lip balm or apply if after you've placed the product on, with these liquid lipsticks in particular matte finishes I like to fan my lips until they are completely matte.

Final thoughts:

Overall I give it a 10/10 they do last long until you eat but it does not completely remove the product from your lips, they do leave a stain but it is not patchy, it is easy to be kept away without the product being melted as I live in Australia during the summer it can get quite hot. They are very pigmented and a little goes a long way, I am a big fan of matte lipsticks and I'd have to say I do prefer these over Lime Crime Velvetines because they have a variety of colours to choose from, I am looking to add the shade DOO-BAI into my collection as I've heard this is a dupe for Lime Crime Velvetine in Wicked.
