Lisa Eldridge True Velvet Lip Colour in Shade Velvet Duchess block

True Velvet Lip Colour

Velvet Duchess

 
“Lisa Eldridge has created the best matte lipsticks in existence.”
The Cut
 
“Lisa’s range of velvety lipsticks are some of the best you’ll ever try”
The Guardian
“So velvety, so plush and so intense in colour that you need to see it to believe it. One of the best matte lipsticks we’ve tried”
ES Magazine
“A truly special matte lipstick with a velvet finish that smooths on easily, fills lines and blurs the lips”
Into the Gloss

Experience the cult classic True Velvet

The ultimate, elevated matte lip

The saturated, technicolour formulation has a beautiful creamy texture, with a slight sheen that stops it from appearing as a ‘flat matte’. It’s so intensely pigmented that it’s easy to create either a one-swipe graphic lip statement, or pat on gently for a subtle, painterly lip stain” 

Lisa Eldridge

A magic trompe l’oeil effect… 

Texture taken from a dream

I once dreamt about a lipstick with a velvet fabric bullet, so set out to achieve just that. True Velvet has a velvet texture cast within the bullet itself, it’s so intense and visually exciting… It truly has to be seen to be believed”

    Colour Misleading

    This formula is perfect, applies like a dream. It's very soft on the lips and has great staying power. The colour online looks nothing like what arrived on my doorstep. It showed up a deep burgundy on me. My mistake ordering online, next time I will find a brick and mortar !

    My Mistake

    I made the mistake in choosing 2 shades from pictures and reviews online. Velvet Rain in theory was my perfect shade of pink. Unfortunately when it arrived I was in shock, it was a mid tone burgundy. I have really pigmented lips naturally and there was no pink in sight for me. I do have to say apart from the colour mishap on my behalf this lipstick is perfect in every other aspect. The formula is luxurious, so lightweight and velvety soft on the lips. Colour saturation is very intense, as expected. It's long lasting and leaves a stain on the lips when it eventually wears off.

    Love this color!

    I have been eyeing this shade for a while and finally pulled the trigger because I love the formula so much, I just cannot get enough. I’m glad that I did because it’s a mature, understanding kind of ****. Sorcery, indeed!

    The most unique red shade

    I was eyeing this colour from the day that it launched, but I never prioritized purchasing it, as I am not a big red lip wearer. However, with the holidays coming up, I decided to get this shade and I am very happy with my choice! The True Velvet texture is so special, it makes your lips look amazing even if you have some dry patches. I tried many other lipsticks and I ca confidently say this texture beats them all. Velvet Dragon gives an amazing colour pay off and I love how versatile it is. You can build the colour up or get amazing coverage in just one swipe, it's up to you.
