I’m a huge fan of liquid matte lipsticks, so when I was browsing through Beauty Bay and spotted the new Hydra Matte Metallic Liquid Lipsticks from Gerard Cosmetics, I was immediately drawn in.

The lipstick comes in 6 beautiful shades: ‘Grape Crush’, ‘Underworld’, ‘Double Shot’, ‘Cherry Bomb’, ‘Dreamweaver’ and ‘Fuzzy Navel’. I opted for Underworld. The colour, I’d say, is espresso meets plum, with a really wonderful metallic finish. It’s ultra pigmented too, and is certainly one for fans of bold lip colouring!

The packaging is really lovely too. It comes in a frosted bottle with a gold lid that has the brand name in black. Simple, but very pretty. The product is also gluten free, and cruelty free.

The lipstick glides on so beautifully, and has a scent of vanilla with is a really nice touch. I found the product long lasting too, which means it’s perfect for parties this time of year, especially when drinks are involved! I’m happy that I chose this colour too as it fits perfectly with the season.

Gerard Cosmetics is a new brand to me, but I’m so glad that I found it and will most definitely be trying more of their products!
