Editor's Review
Contains: Sample Provided

ColourPop Sphynx Velvet Blur Lux Lipstick ($7.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a medium-dark pink with subtle, warm undertones and a satin finish. It had buildable color payoff from medium to nearly opaque (three layers) that went on evenly but was prone to settling into my lip lines enough that it gave the color a more "separated" look. The texture felt smooth, velvety, and seemed to have a touch more slip than other shades as it had a subtle sheen whereas most shades in the range were semi-matte (regardless, it still wore down to matte within an hour of wear). It stayed on well for four hours and was neither drying nor hydrating to me.

I received this in a ColourPop mystery bad a while back, and the color is absolutely hideous on me! Its almost like a pastel pink, and just makes me look like a zombie. But, the formula isn't too bad, which is what I'm focusing on. It feels similar to the Creme lux lipsticks, but tacky feeling, even after blotting lightly with a tissue. It also disappears very quickly. Forget eating or drinking unless you want to reapply, and talking or moving your mouth at all makes it wear off as well. I really didn't notice this masking my lip cracks, and it bunched up on some dry skin I had. It didn't feel dry, though, but I have no idea if it moisturized my lips. Even with its flaws, I can see this being a hit with the lip gloss crowd, since in my opinion it wears similarly to a gloss, just without the crazy shine.
