Kat Von D Double Dare Everlasting Liquid Lipstick ($20.00 for 0.22 fl. oz.) is described as a “cocoa blush.” It’s a muted, medium-dark coral-pink with warm undertones and a matte finish. It had mostly opaque pigmentation that applied really smoothly and evenly, while it wore for seven and a half hours with minimal fading. It only seemed to feel drying after six hours of wear. Givenchy Brun Createur (103) (P, $36.00) is lighter, glossier. NARS Dolce Vita (P, $25.00) is lighter, warmer. Givenchy Brun Cachemire (104) (P, $36.00) is lighter, brighter, glossier. Tom Ford Beauty Negligee (LE, $50.00) is more shimmery, glossier. NARS Bansar (P, $25.00) is warmer, glossier. Tom Ford Beauty Richard (LE, $32.00) is more shimmery, glossier. ColourPop Topanga (P, $5.00) is lighter, brighter, glossier. ColourPop Topanga (P, $5.00) is lighter, brighter, glossier. MAC Brick-o-la (P, $16.00) is darker, cooler. Burberry Redwood (304) (P, $30.00) is darker. ColourPop Bumble (P, $6.00) is the same. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.

Kat Von D Mother Everlasting Liquid Lipstick ($20.00 for 0.22 fl. oz.) is described as a “dusty mauve pink.” It’s a lightly brightened, medium-dark pink with cooler undertones and a matte finish. It had good color coverage (almost opaque) that went on smoothly and evenly, but the dry down seemed to emphasize the the natural texture of the lips a little more than other shades, like Double Dare. The color lasted for nearly eight hours on me and was slightly drying after six and a half hours of wear. ColourPop Thirsty (LE, $5.00) is glossier. Kat Von D Bauhau5 (P, $20.00) is darker, brighter. MAC Nouvelle Vogue (LE, $16.00) is lighter, glossier. MAC Flat Out Fabulous (P, $16.00) is darker, brighter, cooler. Milani Hot Pink Rage (P, $5.49) is lighter, brighter, glossier. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.

FORMULA SUMMARY | Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick ($20.00 for 0.22 fl. oz.) is supposed to be a “long-wear, full coverage liquid lipstick with a smooth, matte finish.” Of the liquid lipsticks on the market that go and have a full dry-down, Kat Von D’s formula remains my favorite, as it is the easiest to apply with the kindest learning curve and lasts awhile. Some shades are more drying than others, but typically they don’t get drying until after five to six hours of wear. They often wear anywhere from six to ten hours, depending on what you’ve had to eat or drink during the day. This formula is thin but not watery, has a longer dry down than most liquid lipsticks (but I noticed some of the newer shades dried to a mostly dry finish faster), and layers better than most (you can touch-up or add a second layer for more coverage). It takes about a minute for it to mostly set, but it will remain a little tacky in places for up to three minutes so you’ll want to avoid pressing your lips together if it doesn’t seem totally dry initially. There isn’t a noticeable scent or taste. If you don’t mind the trade-off between very long, near-pristine wear and being drying, it’s worth checking out. As a bonus, these also come with one of the most generous amounts of products within the realm of liquid lipsticks!

Both colors are gorgeous! I’m especially liking Double Dare -glad she came out with new shades, as many of the old shades were way too bright for my taste

If I get a chance to buy some Kat Von D stuff, Double Dare is going on the top of my list! Totally the kind of colour I’m weak for, and I really want to try one of these matte liquid lipstick formulas. It’s funny, most of the matte liquid lipsticks seem to be by companies not available in the UK (KVD, Anastasia, Colourpop)

Darn, I just bought a few Colourpop ones but ex-ed Bumble out at the last minute because I thought I’d try Double Dare since it’s returnable. Can you say more about why Bumble is better? I know you didn’t review that one yet.

Ginny Avatar

Ohh okay. I’ll see how I like the Colourpop ones when they come. I ordered Lovesick from KVD and I liked the formula, would buy more.

Hey, Christine!

Will you be picking up/reviewing Beloved now that it’s available online? I know it wasn’t for the first few days. I’m interested to see how it compares to sone of the other pinks. 🙂

Johna Avatar

Double Dare is just WOW love it looks great on you Christine! Neat that it is the same as ColourPop Bumble because I prefer the formula of Kat’s

I recently got Double Dare and Bumble. I knew they were pretty similar! I had my sister try both on and Double Dare ended up pulling more pink on her while Bumble seemed more wearable on her tanned skin. How strange is that?

I just got Double Dare. I love the color – very pretty and very work-appropriate. It feels drying on me almost right away, though, and because it’s so drying it seems to emphasize all of the lines in my lips. (Some of that is probably just that my lips are 35 years old now, so they have more lines.)

 shahea Avatar

I haven’t tried that. I tried putting really excellent lip moisturizer but it seems to make little difference. I’ll try exfoliating!

Eva Avatar

I’m liking both colors.. They are pretty and my-kind-of-lipstick-colors. I’m definitely be buying mother and since I already have colourpop bumble, I’ll pass double dare. Because they’re the same color. Don’t wanna have too many lipstick with the same color, LOL..
