Current Obsession: Australis Velourlips Matte Cream
February 27, 2015
My earliest memories of Australis Cosmetics are an embroidered logo tee I had in year 9 that went perfectly with my white denim floral-cuffed shorts at the Gladstone Blue Light and the Ken Done-designed perfumes of the same early 90s era.
We were so young.
Fast forward to 2015 and the latest Australis Velourlips Matte Cream lip colours have dropped
recently, much to the delight of bargain-loving cosmetic queens and statement
lip lovers across the country.
With even more bright and bold shades joining the ranks, Instagram
is awash with snaps of swatches and enviable haul posts - with some obsessed
fangirls proudly displaying their collections of all 18 shades!
The rich matte cream takes a statement lip to new levels
with highly pigmented shades and intense staying power for mouths on the move.
Continuing with names inspired by some of the world’s great
cities, the new shades joining the popular range are:
 |
| BUDA-PASH So 90s, so goth |
 |
| DOO-BAI Wine time, anyone? |
 |
| RO-MA Barbie pink perfection |
 |
| SHANG-HAI Hot pop punk pink |
 |
| BAR-THA-LONA Pinky red passion |
Australis is readily available in department stores. Naturally, I would go to Priceline and get them for $9.95 RRP or wait for a sale.
Not only are they an immensely affordable and available
brand, they are –as the name suggests – a 100% Australian company. They are also
100% cruelty free, with many of their products, including Velourlips, being
vegan-friendly.
Lastly, in news that warms the cockles of my frugalistic heart, all Australis products are under $20. For reals!
What's your take on Velourlips?
