My Experience with ColourPop Speed Dial Ultra Matte Lip:

Packaging: Colourpop liquid lipsticks come in the standard liquid lipstick packaging that somewhat looks like the packaging of a lip gloss.

The glass tube is sleek and comes with a metal brush handle. The applicator brush that it comes with is hassle-free and I personally don’t see any problem with it. All in all, it is a very fuss-free packaging and I have no complaints.

Shade: “Speed Dial” is described as a rich peach color. Peach lipsticks can be a little tricky since there are hardly any peaches out there that don’t wash me out. So, I was mighty impressed by the shade “Speed Dial” when I first tried it. It is definitely a peach color lipstick but it also has undertones of brown and a hint of red in it, which is why I think it really complements my skin tone. It looks like a MLBB shade to me. I wouldn’t say that this lipstick is true to its color as it definitely dries into a darker shade of peach but it looks pretty good on me nonetheless. I like how this shade is not one of those tricky peach shades, meaning, I don’t have to be careful about the rest of my makeup to balance out the look of this lipstick. I can wear it with a smokey eye or even light-to-bare- eye makeup and I know this lipstick would look great. The shade is definitely a beautiful one!

Texture and Pigmentation: The texture of ColourPop liquid lipsticks is really smooth and they glide on to the lips pretty easily. I usually apply this liquid lipstick in two thin layers and so it applies on to the lips without much creasing and blotchiness/ patchiness. Once dry, these liquid lipsticks feel like you’re not wearing anything on your lips. They dry super, super matte and I love the final outcome once the liquid lipstick has dried.

They don’t make my lips dry, I don’t ever need to reapply the liquid lipstick and when I touch my lips, it feels powdery in texture but it doesn’t transfer at all. This lipstick is smudge free. The pigmentation is insane. Even if you apply it in thin layers, the lipstick is great in terms of pigmentation. All you need is two swipes to make the color last all day on you.

Staying Power: Thanks to the insane pigmentation and it being a liquid lipstick, this ColourPop lipstick easily lasts on me 8+ hours and that too with meals in between. And I’m talking about proper meals here. The lipstick just does not go away. It is also smudge-proof and it hardly transfers.
