Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in Lolita

I have been wearing nude lipstick for a while and time to switch it up a bit.

Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in Lolita

This is one of Kat Von D most hyped liquid lipstick shade. It is described as dusty rose but nowhere even close that it is remotely dusty rose.

I have seen swtaches of the "original" lolita shade which is in fact a true mauve rose shade. I read it in the Sephora beauty talk forum that there is a discrepancy in their new batch of lolita and it appears more brown than mauve. 

As you can see from the original box, Lolita is shown as a dusty rose shade.

The shade is a brownish rose, more leaning towards brown. I decided to pick this up(online order) since I swatched it a couple of times in stores and really like the shade. I went to 3 stores but they were all sold out so I ordered mine from Sephora website.

This is incredibly pigmented and smooth. It applies so well on lips and dries to a matte finish. 

I used to wear only brownish shade lip products for the longest time. So nice to get back to the shade and I am loving it.

Since this one dries to a matte finish, it could be a bit drying on the lips. Make sure you moisturize before you apply this. The staying power is amazing. Just one swipe and it is not going anywhere. I am always a lip gloss gal and when I smack my lips and feel my lips are dry, I just have to apply a bit of gloss on top. I am pairing this with Benefit Hoola lip gloss which works quite well.

I am really impressed by Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick and will definitely try out other shades.
