Hello, beauties! I took a little break from blogging this week to visit with family, but I’m back with a review of some stunning liquid lipsticks from Anastasia Beverly Hills. I’m not usually a fan of matte lips, but Anastasia always sucks me in, and after hearing so many rave reviews, I just had to give these lippies a try. Want to know if I loved them, or hated them? Keep on reading!
The liquid lipsticks retail for $20 (0.11 oz), and are available exclusively at Macy’s and macys.com, as well as anastasiabeverlyhills.com. They are available in over 20 shades, and they feature a full coverage, high pigment, matte finish in just one swipe.
Blush is a cool toned baby pink that offers intense pigmentation, and a soft matte finish. It’s not drying, like liquid lipsticks are known to be, and I don’t find it to accentuate my fine lines. It takes about 2-3 minutes to set, and once it does, it doesn’t budge for all day wear.
Retro Coral is neon coral with a super bright finish. Like Blush, the formula isn’t drying, and it doesn’t sink into my fine lines or dry patches. It’s not the most flattering on me though, so I usually pair it with a gloss (which negates the matte finish), but for those who like intense lip colors this is a good choice.
Sugar Plum is new shade to the liquid lipstick line-up, and it’s perfect for the holidays! It features a luminous berry finish, that’s fully opaque in one swipe. This shade is dark though, so you’ll need to apply it slowly for precise application (otherwise you’ll get it all over). I also suggest pairing it with a clear lipliner to prevent bleeding. Although it sets in a few minutes, I find that it still transfers, so I suggest being very careful with this one!

Overall, I’m really happy I tried these! I was always afraid of liquid lipsticks, because I feared they would look awful on my dry lips. Thankfully, the formula of the Anastasia Beverly Hills liquid lipsticks are really forgiving. They dry down to a matte finish, but they never feel tight or overly dry. The two lighter shades aren’t the most flattering on me, but now that I know I love the formula, I’ll definitely try more wearable shades in the future!
Have you tried these liquid lipsticks? Which shades are your favorite?

Beautiful looking tubes and shades! I prefer opaque colors like those.
These are just gorgeous!
I love the formula of these liquid lipsticks. They are my favorite. I have two shades from the range and I want to get a couple neutrals as mine are both on the bold side. Of course I am drawn to Sugar Plum. haha Not neutral at all.

Blush and Retro Coral are so pretty! I am a huge fan of matte liquid lippies for their staying power, despite my lips drying out.
These sound really nice and I adore the Sugar Plum shade! Unfortunately we don’t have them stocked in UK yet although we have other ABH products. x

These shades are gorgeous. I have heard so many awesome things about these but I don’t own one… I have a few brands I enjoy – but I think I will try these too 😀
The colors are just beautiful. I am not always happy with how a long lasting lipstick looks on me but I should try out one of these in a light shade.
These are SO beautiful! I have been wanting to try them for a while, but cant get myself to spend the money! lol I am loving the first two shades here!

Ooooh that coral! Good to hear the formula gets your approval. I’ve only tried Bourjois’ liquid formula so far, I love it.
