Black Radiance Liquid Lip Color Review & Swatches

Black Radiance Liquid Lip Color

On a bit of a budget? Check out Black Radiance Liquid Lip Color! For a mere $2.99 these full color lipstick slash lipgloss hybrids are quite a nice treat for lips.

Take a look!

Black Radiance Liquid Lip Color are available in nine full coverage colors. These are a hybrid formula that’s one part gloss, one part lipstick as you get the shine and texture of a gloss but the fuller color of a lipstick.

The texture is considerably thinner compared to your typically liquid lipstick and isn’t velvety but more of a hydrating gloss formula. I think too many times I run across liquid lipsticks that have matte finishes with velvety formulas. This isn’t a bad thing but I always feel they are a bit heavier! This is far glossier with a nice thin, weightless formula. I purchased the shade Sandy Nude which is a dusky peach that offers full opaque color. I think the brand does the user in an injustice because they include a sponge applicator which applies the product dryly and sheerly. A lip brush would be more beneficial in my opinion. The formula wears for around three hours on my lips while providing good color and a hint of glossiness. The initial glossiness does wear away slightly at hour two so you’re left with more of a sheen. They have a fruity perfume flavor that might be appealing to everyone, I didn’t mean but it might prove irritating to those sensitive to fragrance and flavor in their gloss.

At $2.99 each I think they are an utter steal. If you have a thinner lip brush you can dip it in the tube and forgo using the sponge as I felt like that was a minor quirk of the product that took away points from it being a completely brilliant experience. Aside from this I really liked them! The price, the formula, and the great color made Black Radiance Liquid Lip Color a truly great beauty on a budget pick up!

    Hi. I love black radiance makeup. I start using the eyeshadow in 1999. I didnt start using the lipstick and lip gloss until 2012. The lipgloss containers, both styles never last. The lipstick always break. I never use my glosses til the end. The colors are beautiful but the packaging sucks. Please assist with this isue because the product is lovely.
