BLACK MOON COSMETICS - LIQUID LIPSTICKS - WRATH, SELENE, HARVEST

My favourite lipstick brand had released new colours! Can life get any better than this? 

I've talked about my love for the Black Moon Cosmetics liquid lipsticks several times. Sometimes, my love for this brand even makes it way into other product reviews. That's how deeply I am in love with Black Moon.

As you can imagine, I was over the moon (pun intended) when Black Moon Cosmetics released four new colours earlier this year. The new colours were Wrath, Selene, Harvest and Grim. Being a pale faced babe, I opted to not purchase Grim this time around as, well, I'm about as pale as Casper the ghost and there are some colours that I just can't wear. 

Packaging

I don't care what you say; there is no better liquid lipstick

There have been a few changes to the brand since their original release. Black Moon Cosmetics have since updated their product logo, which now features a BM with a crescent moon. The lipsticks have also been given a new wand, which is more of a flat rectangle as opposed to a rounded lip brush. I was a bit sceptical at first, but it actually worked really well at lining my lips and then applying all over.

In regard to the cardboard packaging, I find it very underwhelming compared to the actual product and gives the product a cheap impression. I hope Black Moon Cosmetics re-evaluate their cardboard packaging in the future.

'Our formula's uniqueness starts from our creamy, whipped texture allowing for buttery smooth application, to out moisturizing qualities leaving your pout so soft! Our flexible formula does not allow for any cracking or crumbling. It stays on for 5+ hours with no lip liner needed, is kiss-proof, and smells like a freshly baked vanilla cake!'

Shades & Textures

Black Moon Cosmetics have released four new colours to their liquid lipstick range. Here's a quick look at the newest additions to my collection:

Black Moon Cosmetics - Wrath

Wrath is described as "the perfect combination of mauve with a hint of pink and brown touch". What I first noticed about this colour it how dark it was on me! Hashtag pale girl problems. It's been compared to a purple version of Libra (Libra is supposed to be a light pink, but appears brown on me). 

Black Moon Cosmetics - Selene

Selene is described by Black Moon as a "beautiful deep plum with a gorgeous soft purple pearlescent sheen". And I must admit, that pearlescent sheen was the very reason why I purchased Selene. It's just too pretty to pass up!

Black Moon Cosmetics - Harvest

And lastly, Harvest is described as a "perfect soft burnt orange that is perfect on all skin tones. Not too bright, it is the perfect hue orange with a kiss of red which makes it the ultimate warm colour for fall, or any time of the year". I was actually  little surprised at how much I love Harvest. It really is that perfect burnt orange colour with hints of red. I'll be wearing this as much as possible during the colder months.

From L - R: Grim, Harvest, Selene & Wrath

'Colours may vary depending on screen and/or monitor resolution, lighting, and skin tones'.

Formula & Pigmentation

The formula for this liquid lippies buttery smooth and applies like a dream. The new applicator brush also allows or more precise application and lining of the lips. Each lipstick also dries within 3-5 minutes and can last all day, as long as you avoid greasy food. Otherwise, its food and water proof and make-out proof!

Again, it is important to remember that these liquid lipsticks will appear differently on different types of skin tones so if you're unsure if these colours are for you check them out on Instagram on a similar skin colour to your own.

Ingredients

Black Moon Cosmetics pride themselves on their products being vegan, cruelty free, paraben free and also gluten free. 

Each lipstick is extremely moisturising and enriched with both Vitamin E and Antioxidants.

Affordability & Retailers

Just a reminder that these liquid lipsticks are gluten free, cruelty free, paraben free and are vegan! Amazing! They are also currently retailing for $18.00USD, so get in while the exchange rate is a-okay. You can make your purchase here.

Final Verdict

Check out my earlier post on the rest of this collection for more details about this fabulous brand. I'll be buying Black Moon Cosmetic liquid lipsticks forever.
