Hello gorgeous ladies,
You know the time, especially when we were in college, and we fell in love with someone but did not realize until later on? That’s exactly what I am experiencing with Hard Candy Makeup. Lately, I have tried so many products from Hard Candy, and more often than not, this brand has impressed me and how! Today, I bring to you my new favourite liquid lipstick from Hard Candy called the Hard Candy Velvet Mousse Matte Lip Color in the shade “Wisteria.” Let’s have a look!

My Experience with Hard Candy Wisteria Velvet Mousse Matte Lip Color:
Packaging: This lip color is housed in a gorgeous tin case with beautiful floral prints on it. The best part is that it comes with mirror which is big enough for lipstick application. The lipstick tube is placed over inside the tin case on a velvet mould that fits the lipstick correctly. The lipstick tube is a flat oval-shaped tube with a silver cap. The applicator is not like a standard doe-foot applicator, rather an elongated sponge tip which makes the application much comfortable and easy.
Color: “Wisteria” is a super bold and bright purple color, Oh My God! This shade is super gorgeous for the confident ladies who can pull off any shade. This shade will suit most skin tones, especially Indian complexions! It looks pretty good on my skin tone as well and makes my lips look fuller. The only downside is that one needs to be super careful or use a lip liner to correct the lip lines.
Pigmentation: The lipstick is super-duper pigmented and shows up completely opaque in a single swipe. It can be worn as a sheer purple or can be built as per choice. It does not look cakey upon layering.
Texture: The texture of this baby is super creamy like liquid lipsticks generally are. It glides on the lips smoothly as the lip cream is like a soufflé. It feels like velvet on the lips and dries down to a semi-matte finish. Once set with a powder, it turn completely matte. It also does not feel heavy on the lips.
Smell: The smell of this baby is like cream cheese frosting with loads of vanilla extract!! Trust me ladies, it’s so amazing that you might have to resist the temptation of licking the wand! I absolutely like the scent but if you like fragrance free lipsticks, then this scent might bother you.
Longevity: Another wow factor is that this lipstick is quite long lasting. It does transfer a bit, but once set with a powder, it’s completely matte and transfer proof. It does not feather or melt away for a good 5-6 hours.
Quality: Overall, the quality of the lipstick is super amazing and totally unbeatable for the price. There are very few liquid lipsticks in the market that perform superb and are affordable at the same time. The color, the longevity, the smell and most of all the packaging are all super impressive.
