Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet - 01 Personne Ne Rouge 7 ml

My favorite lipstick. Is long-lasting, comfortable to wear and has an excellent range of shades - would be awesome if Bourjois continues expanding the range to offer more shades for all skin types. I would buy again.

I have this in #35. It's a bold pink, but the matte finish makes it more muted so i'd wear to work. Survives eating/drinking. I like the spongey brush applicator. My lips are quite dry despite moisturising every day/using balms. I found this makes the surface of my lips appear even. Other lipsticks have accentuated any dryness/unevenness. I'd recommend these for a long-lasting pop of colour without shine. I'm not a fan of the scent of any Bourjois products, this is not an exception.

I love a good, sheer liquid lip product but this wasn’t one of them! I had the shade 02 Rosé on the rocks and based on the packaging, it looked like a lovely soft blush rose colour. On application however there was literally no colour payoff and definitely no ‘intense shine’ as promised on the packaging. Trying to apply multiple layers didn’t help either – it just slipped about over the previous layer and never dried down completely. I used this a handful of times before admitting defeat and throwing it in the trash.

PROS: • No transfer once they dry down • Long wearing, no smudging • They don't get crumbly • Not patchy • Not sticky • Comfortable • Same color as in the tube CONS: • Sheer formula, requires layering for full opacity • Takes a long time to dry down • Unpleasant artificial scent Overall, 7/10. I have the shade Cool Brown.

I just brought this product recently. Having already tried one of their other products I was really impressed with the result as it lasted throughout the day!
