Peripera Peripera Ink Velvet

Recently got to know about this and boy it’s pretty,the easiest application and I absolutely love the texture that glides over the lips beautifully,giving such a graceful finish and what’s the best part? It lasts for hours,the kind of product I would love to experiment with,xoxo

First thing’s first, this isn’t as pigmented or nearly as opaque as its other Velvet counterparts. It has a much lighter consistency, so, that’s naturally a given. It also doesn’t feel as mousse-like as the other Velvet lines. It also can be a little streaky. That being said, if you were to start with the Cloud Ink Velvet line first without trying either the Peri’s Ink The Velvet collection or the Airy Ink collection, you’d be amazed with its pigmentation. What I’m trying to say that it’s decent on its own but it doesn’t stand a chance when the other two lines enter the picture. It doesn’t dry down completely and is very comfortable on the lips. It has decent longevity before the colour starts to fade. If you were to eat, however, you’d barely be able to see it on your lips. I also find that it doesn’t fully adhere to the lips. So, it transfers a whole lot. Moreover, it doesn’t stain the lips much either. The packaging is similar to the other Peripera Ink line. The only difference would be the applicator. It has a flat and rectangular applicator, which can be a little tricky to get used to. It has a powdery-floral scent. It dissipates right after application, so, you needn’t worry much. You know what I reckon this will be good for? If you were to simply dab some on your lips and call it a day. Otherwise, it is as average a product as any, honestly. Everything sounds good so far, right? Well, yeah, the product is decent if you like lightweight, fuss-free tints that are comfortable to wear throughout the day. That isn’t what I found an issue with. What bothered me is the official Lip Swatch photo from Peripera that I found misleading. In the photo, ‘#5 Redish Rose’ looks like a rather wearable burgundy hue. But in reality, it’s far from being a burgundy at all. I just feel cheated with the colour I wound up with. By the way, #1 and #5 are very, very similar in this line. If you have one, you don’t need the other. Unless, of course, you’re the type of person who likes having the entire collection. OVERALL: I think this a very, very, very average lip tint. It’s nice, comfortable and all but I don’t think it’s something you absolutely and positively have to try. PROS It is lightweight. It's a comfortable formula. There are 5 rather generic and universal colours for you to choose from. If you dab it on, you can create a more long-wearing lip colour. It has a powdery-floral scent that dissipates after application. CONS It isn't particularly long-wearing. Availability is an issue.

This product is totally different from the box since it has a kind of applying brush which helps in applying the color on the lips more conveniently.
