Velvet Cinnabar True Velvet Lip Colour
True Velvet Lip Colour
Product and Shade Description
Inspired by the red mineral which has been used as a precious resource around the world since at least the 10th millennium BC. During ancient rituals and rites of passage it came to denote Blood, Victory, Success and even Immortality. In its various forms (including Vermillion) it has been used as an artists pigment and can be seen in the frescos of ancient Rome. It was also used extensively as a cosmetic, most famously by Queen Elizabeth the 1st to create an intensely dramatic and powerful effect on the lips and cheeks.
Saturated and highly pigmented lipstick with a beautiful, true velvet effect on the surface of the bullet which looks exactly like velvet. Creamy, hydrating, long-wearing and non-drying.
This Cruelty Free product is free from Parabens, Talc, Gluten, Fragrance, D6, and D5.

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”
Lisa Eldridge
