Burberry, a name synonymous with timeless elegance and British heritage, has ventured into the beauty world with a range of sophisticated makeup products. Among their offerings, the Burberry Liquid Lip Velvet stands out, promising a luxurious lip experience with its claims of rich pigment, smooth application, a long-lasting velvet finish, and a surprisingly non-drying formula. This review delves into the performance of the Burberry Liquid Lip Velvet, comparing it to other Burberry lip products and exploring its suitability for various occasions and preferences. We'll specifically address claims made about the product's longevity and comfort, and examine the overall value proposition.
The Claims:
Burberry promotes its Liquid Lip Velvet with the following key features:
* Rich Pigment: Intense color payoff for a bold and impactful lip look.
* Smooth Application: Effortless glide onto the lips without tugging or pulling.
* Velvet Finish: A matte finish that's described as soft and velvety, rather than harsh or drying.
* Up to Eight Hours of Wear: Long-lasting color that endures throughout the day.
* Non-drying: A comfortable formula that avoids the common dryness associated with matte liquid lipsticks.
The Experience:
The Burberry Liquid Lip Velvet lives up to much of its hype. The applicator is cleverly designed, a doe-foot applicator that allows for precise application, even in the corners of the mouth. The initial application is indeed smooth, gliding effortlessly across the lips without any significant tugging or pulling. The texture is surprisingly comfortable, defying the expectations of a typical matte liquid lipstick. While it does set to a matte finish, it doesn't feel tight or drying, even after hours of wear. This non-drying quality is a significant advantage and a key differentiator from many other long-lasting matte liquid lipsticks on the market.
The pigment is exceptionally rich, providing a bold and saturated color with just one swipe. For a more sheer application, layering can be controlled, allowing for a customized intensity. The color payoff is consistent across the shades I've tested, with no noticeable patchiness or unevenness. The “velvet” finish is accurate – it’s a matte finish, but with a soft, almost plush feel that avoids that chalky or powdery texture often found in other matte liquid lipsticks.
The claim of eight-hour wear is ambitious, and while it doesn't quite reach that mark for everyone, it certainly delivers impressive longevity. The color remains vibrant for a considerable period, even through light eating and drinking. Some fading does occur with heavier meals or prolonged periods of drinking, but the color remains noticeable, requiring only minimal touch-ups.
Comparison with Other Burberry Lip Products:
To fully assess the Burberry Liquid Lip Velvet, it's helpful to compare it to other lip products within the Burberry range:
* Burberry Kisses Matte Lipstick: The Kisses Matte lipstick offers a more traditional matte finish, with a slightly creamier texture compared to the Liquid Lip Velvet. It's less long-lasting but feels more hydrating during wear. The Liquid Lip Velvet offers superior longevity and a more intensely pigmented color.
* Burberry Full Kisses Lipstick: The Full Kisses lipstick provides a more moisturizing and glossy finish. It lacks the intense color payoff and longevity of the Liquid Lip Velvet. It's ideal for a more natural, everyday look.
