Beauty Product Reviews

very pretty

I got this for my desk/vanity to hold my loose powder container from view.

It's very classy and makes me feel like a fancy lady from the 1920's whenever I use it.

I got another one for my friend's updated black and white bathroom. she loves it.

perfect to remove makeup!

I use this as the first step in removing my makeup and prepping my skin for sleep.

It cuts through the mascara, eyeliner, etc like it's nothing.

You do need to cleanse your face afterward as it does leave the skin a bit oily afterward, but, it's good as a first step ina double cleanse or triple cleanse.

required for dry skin!

I have very dry, sensitive skin that reacts badly to most things. I also wear a lot of eye makeup, and most makeup removers can make my skin feel like it's burning, and leave my skin red, drier, and flakey.

This does not. It removes my mascara, and eyeliner,( including what is in my waterline and what I use to tight-line my eyes). It doesn't burn, or inflame my skin, nor does it make my skin drier or flakey.

I have repurchased this in various sizes as it's a main stay in my beauty routine.

required for dry skin!

I've been using this for a year. My skin is much softer, and it's required to make my 47-year-old face look like I'm maybe 35.

YES and it's affordable!

One of my favorite glosses

I have this in two shades, ( Please forgive me, and Unicorn Blood, but today, I mainly want to focus on the shade Unicorn Blood.

I have had a serious long-term love affair with the color Unicorn Blood.

Unicorn blood, the liquid lip, has been my favorite go-to lip color for like.. four years. If I needed to feel like a badass boss, I wore it. On top of that, five of my friends swatched it on them, and on each of us, it was the perfect color, even if it looked drastically different on each of us. ( I'm a pale ghost with a very cool undertone, my friends are either natural or very warm undertoned with skin shades that range from light to immensely dark. I normally can not wear the same shade of anything they can wear due to how cool-toned my skin is. )

Then he came out with Velvet trap, and I of course nabbed Unicorn blood and ended up horrified when the color was not even close to the same shade as my beloved liquid lip. It was given to a friend who can rock that rust-brown lip shade with a slightly too orange undertone for my cool-toned skin.

Then, Mister Star dropped the Supreme gloss in Unicorn Blood. I bought it, hoping, praying it would be the same shade as my beloved liquid lip. I had had Please forgive me and I knew I loved the formula already so, I had my fingers crossed that this would be a color match.

Turns out, it's not an exact shade match, but it's close enough that I'm happy with it.

The applicator is so unique, and it does give you enough product that I only need a single dip to give my entire lip a coat. I do tend to break out a lip brush, mainly because otherwise, the applicator's lily-like shape can mess up the shape on my upper lip.

The formula is a smidge sticky, so if you have long hair, be careful. Also, when wearing it with a mask, it will get everywhere quickly if you use too much.

It has a ton of pigmentation, and it is utterly beautiful on the lip. I'd say use a lip brush if you want sharp clean lines on the edge of your lip, or if you are doing that Anime blurred lip tread, use a Qtip to blur your edges carefully.

All Mister Star needs to do is make Unicorn blood in his THE GLOSS formula and I will be utterly set for my Unicorn blood fix.

Pretty but not for me

I got this in the Mystery Box, and I ended up giving them to two of my friends. ( because I bought two different boxes, and it was in both).

The quality was great, it just was not a color story that I liked, and the colors on my cool tone, pale skin looked like poop, dirt, and frost bite.

On my friends, both warmer skin toned and one in much much deep skin tone looks amazing in these shades.

If you are a cool tone skinned human being, I'd suggestion go elsewhere, but if you like warm tones, and icy blues, this is a great palette

Unique, but...

The pros: The packaging is so much better than his other ones. Less bulky, more streamlined, and just easier to store.

The doe-foot is unique, and I wasn't sure how I'd like it, but I love that it's one dip and done, not a multi dip needed to get my gloss on.

The pigmentation is amazing, and it's as if his liquid lip and his lip-gloss got together and had a love child and this was born of it.

I ordered the Please forgive me, because Jeffree said it to be a Pink mauve with a glossy finish, and I'm a sucker for a Mauve anything.

This is not mauve. It's a bolder pink. there is nothing mauve about this shade at all. It's a lovely shade, just not what I had been expecting.

It does have a strong fake vanilla extract scent but it fades on the lip. I'd return it, but honestly, it's too much of a hassle to deal with the post office during a good day, much less during a pandemic to bother with. I will have to try a different color later.

I'd four-star it, but I removed a star for the color issue.

One of my favorite glosses

I own two now: mouthful and beaded glass. I used to own Heaven's gate but I passed it on to a friend who likes a more glittery lip than I do.

Beaded Glass is serious so beautiful. It's a sheer tint with glitter but not over the top glitter, just.. a nice soft sparkle.

My favorite liquid lip

okay, I own like.. seven Jeffree Starr Velour Liquid Lipsticks. Unicorn blood is my holy grail, nothing but net, never fails to impress people lippie.

I love that it stays in place, it's bold without shifting colors, and is just so good!

Packaging is beautiful BUT shade is not good...

I'm a huge, huge fan of Jeffree's Unicorn blood liquid lip. It's my favorite, signature sort of color that I will wear whenever I want to feel like a badass or want to feel beautiful.

I bought Velvet Trap Lipstick Unicorn Blood thinking it's the same color as the liquid lip.

It's so not. While the liquid lip has that deep red blood look and color, the Velvet trap version is more rusty brown with some red thrown in.

It was not the color I have come to know as Unicorn blood. I even swatched side by side and it clearly NOT the same color. Since I bought it from Jeffree's site, I was stuck with it, so I gave it to a friend who liked the color, even though she too was heartbroken by the use of the Unicorn blood name, without the color we love being actually used.

Formula wise, this has a very dry, and sort of thick feeling on the lips. Not my favorite formula. I will stick to his liquid lips.

I give it three stars because the bullet and the box are beautiful, but color and formula need serious work.
