Holiday 2017

Burberry Holiday 2017 Liquid Lip Velvet Set ($45.00 for 0.52 oz.) includes four, miniature-sized liquid lipsticks. I’m a huge fan of the formula–it’s pigmented, long-wearing, and comfortable to wear. The “downside” is the brand claims they last for eight hours, and they tend to last between six and eight hours on average. I found the formula of the shades included in the set to be consistent with their full-sized counterparts that I’ve reviewed in the past (so I did not retest for wear time but ratings reflect the set’s versions for pigmentation, texture, and so forth). Keep in mind, the formula does not have a flat, matte dry down–they have a light sheen that wears down to a satin-to-matte finish after a few hours of wear.

Value

A full-sized Liquid Lip Velvet retails for $34.00 and contains 0.20 fl. oz. or costs $170.00/fl. oz. The set contains $88.40 worth of product.

Fawn Rose

Fawn Rose is a soft, muted pink with neutral-to-warm undertones and a satin finish. It had opaque pigmentation with a smooth, mousse-like consistency that was easy to spread across the lips. It wore well for five hours and was comfortable to wear.

Formula Overview

$34.00/0.2 oz. - $170.00 Per Ounce

The Liquid Lip Velvet formula is described as having “rich pigment, smooth application” and a “velvet finish that lasts up to eight hours” that is “non-drying.” Overall, the formula is fantastic for those who want the fluidity of a liquid product without the drying aspect of more traditional liquid lipsticks while not sacrificing wear time. The formula does not dry down completely, so there will be transfer, but the product is so pigmented that the color lasts awhile.

I’ve found the colors to wear between six and eight hours and easily survive a solid meal. The liquid lipstick has a smooth, velvety consistency that is almost weightless (I forget I’m wearing it) that was never drying and always comfortable to wear. A pleasant surprise was that the formula was unscented (with no discernible taste either), which is not the norm with Burberry’s products.

Magenta (33)

Magenta (33) is a vibrant, medium-dark fuchsia-red with warmer undertones and a satin sheen. The color payoff was nearly opaque, while the consistency was lightweight, smooth, and spread nicely across the lips with an airy, mousse-like feel. I had a touch of color that pulled into my lip lines, though the brightness of the color made it hard to see from a normal viewing distance. This shade wore for eight hours, left a stain behind, and was neither drying nor hydrating.

Oxblood (53)

Oxblood (53) is a deep, muted plum with subtle, warm undertones and a cream finish. It had good pigmentation–just shy of truly full coverage–that applied evenly and smoothly across the lips. The texture was mousse-like, almost weightless, and comfortable to wear over the eight hours it lasted for.

Regiment Red (37)

Regiment Red (37) is a rich, medium-dark orange-red with warm undertones and a satin sheen. It was richly pigmented and had a mousse-like, airy texture that felt ultra lightweight on and was comfortable to wear for the seven hours it lasted for. There was very minor color in my deeper lip lines but that wasn’t noticeable from a normal viewing distance.
