ColourPop Flying Colours Liquid Lipstick Vault

December 3, 2018 | Beauty, ColourPop | 8 Comments »

I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with ColourPop, but I have to admit that their holiday collections never disappoint. When I first saw photos of their Holiday 2018 Collection I was pretty excited. It was just so colorful! It really caught my eye. Well, I should say the Flying Colours Liquid Lipstick Vault caught my eye. Their lip products are some of my favorites so for me this was a must have item. I still waited on swatches to ensure the quality was good, but I couldn’t find many. So I ended up buying it as soon as it launched and hoped for the best.

The Flying Colours Liquid Lipstick Vault contains 14 Liquid Lipsticks including 7 Ultra Glossy Lips, 3 Ultra Matte Lips, 2 Ultra Satin Lips, and 2 Ultra Metallic Lips. They all come in limited edition packaging which consists of holographic caps and sparkle type designs on the tube. It looks like a rainbow with the placement of the shades in the outer packaging! I think this is easily one of their prettiest holiday sets.

So far I have worn 7 of these. The glosses are so pretty! They smell like vanilla! My favorites are Dreamaaholic and Paper Moon. The metallics are a little more textured than some of the others I’ve tried. Morning Glory was fairly comfortable, but it did get a little flakey after eating. It’s a really pretty shade though. Of all the mattes Skyfall is my favorite. It’s nice and lightweight, but can be a little drying. This also left behind a bit of a stain after removal. Pitter Ponder is really pretty, but it was tricky applying. I had to work at evening it out and it still looked a little streaky afterward. This would have to be my least favorite lipstick of the bunch. I don’t hate it or anything. It’s a very pretty shade. I’m just not sure how much use it’ll get. You can see the 7 shades I have tested below.

I decided to crop the photos this way so that you can see the shimmer in the glosses and overall application of each lipstick much better. I know they’re not the most flattering photos given that you can see my double chin and all. Maybe just focus on the lipsticks? They really are pretty!

Overall, I’m very happy with the Flying Colours Liquid Lipstick Vault. I absolutely love it! Do I think it’s a must have item? Only if you’re a ColourPop Liquid Lipstick fan like me. If that’s the case I think you’ll love it. Otherwise maybe try a few of the single shades. Or one of the smaller Lip Bundles. Those are pretty cute too.
