ColourPop Ultra Matte Liquid Lipstick in Solow

After reading so many incredible reviews of ColourPop Ultra Matte Lipsticks, I was desperate to get my hands on one.  Lately I've been loving matte liquid lipsticks (along with everyone else!) and was too tempted by the huge range of colours on offer from ColourPop.  Colourpop Cosmetics isn't particularly easy to get hold of in the UK so I did a bit of research and ended up risking an eBay order.

I decided to only order one shade, as we all know the risks we run ordering on eBay, so after a lot of research I went for Solow, a neutral nude pink.  I ordered from this ebay seller, and luckily my genuine liquid lipstick arrived two days later.

I would go as far as to say this is one of my favourite liquid lipsticks yet.  I love the plain packaging with a hint of silver and the small doe foot applicator is perfect for achieving a smooth line.  The product dries quickly and doesn't leave that horrible sticky feeling that some of the cheaper liquid lipsticks have.  Admittedly, it's a bit drying, but it's nothing that a good lip balm can't fix and to be honest, I wasn't expecting a matte lipstick to be particularly hydrating.

I adore the neutral pink shade.  It's perfect for spring and it's really easy to pair with any makeup look.  It's so long lasting that I find myself reaching for an oil-based makeup remover to take it off at the end of the day.

I love this brilliant lipstick, and I am so tempted to make another order already! I've got my eye on Donut next - I'm a sucker for a pretty coral!
