I have been a huge Jeffree Star Liquid Lipstick fan for a very long time now and I have a collection when it comes to his liquid lipsticks. Last year, Calabasas was a part of his “Chrome collection” and Jeffree Star has added this shade to his permanent line because of its popularity. Read on to know what makes it so popular.

My Experience with Jeffree Star Cosmetics Velour Liquid Lipstick Calabasas:

This liquid lipstick comes in a transparent and high-end looking plastic tube with a chrome cap which was part of chrome collection and has pink stars printed on it. The brand name is also printed in pink fonts on the front. It has a clear wand and the cap is secure. In fact, you get a click sound when you close the cap completely. Ah! Satisfying, isn’t it?

“Calabasas” is a pretty mauve-y n*de color which would suit a variety of skin tones and is an everyday colour for me. It is very pigmented and opaque. It’s quite liquid-y, so you have to have a steady hand while applying. The wand is very unique and has a bend which holds a sufficient amount of product to cover the entire lip in a single swipe.

It dries down completely matte and feels super lightweight on the lips, does not settle into fine lines of my lips, but since it’s a matte liquid lipstick, it will accentuate any dry patches, so make sure you exfoliate and moisturize your lips before applying it!

Please note that this shade may vary according to undertones, it may look brighter or darker varying on the pigmentation of lips. This particular shade has no scent to it. On me, the color lasted for about 6 to 7 hours without budging. It will start to fade from inside if you eat oily food. You might notice a little transfer too.
