Christian Louboutin Diva Velvet Matte Lip Colour Lip Colour Review

Hey everyone,

Today’s review will be on a Louboutin lipstick, priced at $90 USD. I had picked up “Diva” from the Velvet Matte finish of CL. I wanted to see if there was something really insanely incredible about it or it was just a collector’s piece. I have previously reviewed “Youpiyou” and “Miss Loubi” on IMBB. More details about this lipstick “Diva” in the review below 🙂

Product Description:
What it is:  A highly-pigmented matte lip color that provides non-drying comfort on the lips and leaves a suede finish.  This intensely rich color goes on with full coverage and sets with a soft touch matte finish. Formulated with a complex of natural oils and seed butters to enhance moisturize for up to four hours, it provides a protective layer against dryness. These lip colors are available in a universal shade palette, ranging from light to deep tones, across mid-tonal and bright hues of pinks to berries, reds and corals, and nudes and browns. Presented in a jewelry box and offered with a silk carrying pouch, the design mirrors an objet d’art so intimate as to be worn like a precious jewel; it transforms a forgotten object into a woman’s magic wand. The colors are available in three finishes—silky satin, velvet matte, and sheer voile—each with its own design. Each lip color features a unique elixir vial design with a silk ribbon to transform the lipstick into a necklace. The solid black or gold metal body holds the iconic Rouge Louboutin lip color. Each Rouge Louboutin shade comes in a black lipstick case, and all the other shades are encased in a gold case.

My Experience with Christian Louboutin Diva Velvet Matte Lip Colour Lip Colour:

Christian Louboutin lipsticks are priced at $90 each. Rouge Louboutin ones come in black lipstick cases, and all the other shades are encased in gold.

This lipstick comes with a string attached to it, which looks a bit weird. The idea of this string is that you can wear it as a necklace, seriously! Who would wear this heavy lipstick as a neck piece? The packaging is very different from the lipsticks you will see in the market and I think that’s what you are paying for.

CL lipsticks come in several different formulas – matte, sheer and silky satin formulation. These come in a gold tube and different finishes have different packaging – matte formulations have matte tube, sheer and silky satin have shiny tubes. This lipstick is quite heavy and feels quite luxe. The smell is kind of perfume-y, it’s not overpowering, just a mild scent. The shape of the bullet is a basic slant cut. I was a bit apprehensive to apply this lipstick at first, I didn’t want to ruin my $90 dollar lipstick in any way.

“Diva” is a reddish-orangey shade. I think it will suit most skin tones out there. This shade belongs to the velvet matte finish. It’s a highly pigmented lipstick and glides on the lips smoothly. It also feels light on the lips. This lipstick makes my lips fuller and beautiful. When applied, it has a velvety feel to it. The color stays on the lips pretty well even after eating and drinking.

This lipstick doesn’t dry your lips out. Also, it fades very evenly and leaves a beautiful stain behind. It stays put perfectly for 8 hours.

Overall, I love the formula, hate the price of this lipstick. I am also not a big fan of the packaging. I also hate the fact that I would be ordering more from this range of Louboutin lipsticks since I love the formula so much.
