Okay so after reading some of the reviews on here for Makeup Revolution lipsticks and velvet lip lacquers I decided I had to go on a cheeky little spree on their website! Well I say cheeky but considering how crazy-cheap it is I'm not feeling all that guilty about it.
The products I bought are:
Salvation Velvet Lip Lacquer- Depravity~ (£3.00)
Which from the swatches I've seen from other bloggers is a beautiful bright purple and looks a fairly good dupe for Lime Crime's Utopia Velvetine. For £3 it's worth a try at least.
Salvation Velvet Lip Lacquer-Vamp~(£3.00)
This looks to be a rich burgundy red colour and in my mind bears strong semblance to my fave lippie (Revlon's super Lustrous Lipstick in Black Cherry) which is a incredibly dark almost black red, which I feel compliments my pale almost bloody glow-in-the-dark looking skin and creates a pretty 'grunge' vibe. I'm hoping for big things from this product.
Full Vamp Lipstick Collection~ 3 for 2! (£2.00)
Continuing along the lines of my 'I want people to run screaming from me in the street because I look like an undead creature of the night but in a good way' aesthetic I bought these 3 lipsticks, which are in a groovy offer at the minute which means you get these already insanely cheap (£1.00) each lipstick 3 for 2 making the total cost £2.00 for 3 lipsticks! It includes shades:
Rebel with cause
100% vamp
Black Heart
There are three incredible red shades. The first being 100% vamp which I actually feel like would be a pretty good dupe for the Revlon black cherry lipstick I was talking about earlier.
Rebel with cause (damn I love that name) seems like a pretty standard dark red but hey for a quid I aint complaining.
Black Heart is the darkest of the 3 and if I'm honest does look... VERY similar to 100% vamp if only a smidge darker? still looks fun to play with though and I'm wondering if I could use all three to create a bit of an ombre look? Only time will tell.
Amazing Lipstick Depraved~ (£1.00)
The sister lipstick to the 'Depravity' Velvet Lacquer I also purchased it's another vibrant purple, though from the swatches on the website it looks slightly more pastel than depravity which is fab!This is possibly the one I'm most excited to play with as I just dyed my hair black with a purple half fringe so I feel like this will look pretty cool.
So I'm aware shipping will probably take a while due to Christmas/ New Year but hopefully these beauties will be with me soon and I will be able to swatch them for you all and do a proper review. Thank you very much for reading.
