Review: Makeup Revolution Salvation Velvet Lacquers

Hi lovelies! 

So the other week I went into Superdrug for a few bits and I picked up these Makeup Revolution Velvet Lip Lacquers which are basically a drugstore liquid lipstick. I picked up four of the shades and they were £3 each so I thought as they were so in expensive I'd try a few colours I wouldn't normally pick up. 

The first colour I picked up was 'Velvet Depravity' which is a lilac shade. This shade stood out to me on the shelf and I thought I had to try it! Personally, it's not a shade I could wear on a daily basis but it is a very fun colour. The only thing I would say about this shade is that it can go on a bit patchy and you have to layer this one up a bit to get true colour pay off.

I also got another purple shade which is called 'Keep Lying For You' which for me is a much more wearable way to wear a purple lip. I love this colour as it is more of a bright berry shade in person. Unlike Velvet Depravity this one was easy to apply and the colour pay off with one layer is amazing!

The next shade I picked up was a classic red called 'Keep Trying For You'. This shade applied great and as it's a blue toned red made my teeth look nice and white. 

And the last shade I picked up was 'Keep Flying For You' which is a bright Orange shade. This shade also applied quite patchy and when dried on the lips showed a lot of the cracks in my lips unlike the other shades. Despite this it is a really pretty colour, and makes me look a lot more tanned than I actually am which is always a good thing!

Although some of the shades didn't apply great I would recommend trying these as an alternative to some of the higher end liquid lipsticks - especially if you want to try out some funky new colours! I wore 'Keep Lying For You' out all day, went for lunch, coffee and dinner and only had to re-apply once throughout the whole day! I only had to re-apply as the middle of my lips had faded slightly the staying power for these is truly great.

I hope you guys liked these swatches/reviews of these shades! Let me know some of your favourite drugstore liquid lipsticks and if you've tried these as well and what you think of them!
