Hello, hello!
Today I’m swatching and reviewing the last of my liquid lipsticks from most recent ColourPop haul – the Ultra Metallic Lip in Kween.
One shade to rule them all, a burnt red with tons of gold glitter in a Metallic finish
Colour-wise this one is absolutely stunning and perfect for fall.
I have to say that I’m disappointed in the formulation of this one. It is nowhere near as creamy and comfortable as the other Ultra Metallic Lip that I’ve tested (Man Eater). This one also applies patchy if you aren’t careful in application.
The below photo shows the difference between two different swatch attempts – the top swatch took a lot more work than the bottom one which is just a quick swipe.
Maybe I got a bad batch, I don’t know. But for $6 (USD), I will still try more from ColourPop. If this was a $40 lipstick I’d be really upset, but for the price, I’m willing to gamble on an occasional dud since all of the other liquid lipsticks that I’ve tried were great!
Have you gotten any that you were less than impressed with? Are you still willing to try more?
Thanks for reading and have a beautiful day! ❤
Disclosure: I purchased this! And my opinion is very much my own!
There are a bunch of youtubers that have had reviewed this product and it is like that! so baaaaaaaad

My other one (man eater) is so great, but this one just isn’t good, which sucks because I love the colour!

Too bad this one didn’t work out. With all the other ones being so great I would probably contact their customer service to let them know about this one. Thanks for the review and have a great day! XOXO

I think they poured too much glitter into this… just my non-professional opinion. Too bad, the colour is pretty. Like you said, not terrible for a $6 item. I guess you could mix it with a more emollient gloss / balm product?

Probably way too much mica. I have been wearing it with lip balm to make it more comfortable.

Huh, that’s too bad. 😦 Still, you’re right – it wasn’t too expensive. But the quality control/testing should be better!

I’m just going to wear it with lip balm. For the price I’m not too upset. All my other ones are great, so that is pretty good!

that sucks! Even though it wasn’t too expensive you’d expect the quality to be good still!

Hi! I was curious how you purchase your makeup to try and review. I’ve been trying to find a way to get my business off the ground and it seems as if people respect your opinion. Is there anyway some Younique products could be your next to try?

I pick companies based on research and reading reviews. I try to choose a range from indie, drugstore, and high end. As for what I’m reviewing next brand-wise, I have several reviews lined up at the moment. 😊

That is a pretty shade. Too bad it’s kinda bad because it’s totally perfect for fall. I’m not sure I could rock metallic shades though lol.
