Burberry's foray into the luxury lip market has consistently impressed with its blend of sophisticated shades, luxurious textures, and high-quality formulations. Among their impressive offerings, the Burberry Liquid Lip Velvet line stands out for its intensely pigmented, long-lasting, and comfortable liquid lipsticks. This review focuses specifically on Brilliant Violet, a captivating shade that exemplifies the line's strengths. At $34.00 for 0.20 fl. oz., it's a premium product, but the performance often justifies the price tag. This deep dive will explore Brilliant Violet in detail, comparing it to other shades within the Burberry lipstick family, examining its texture, longevity, application, and overall value.
Brilliant Violet: A Deep Dive into a Deep Berry
Burberry Brilliant Violet Liquid Lip Velvet is a showstopper. Described as a bright, medium-dark berry plum with cooler undertones and a cream finish, it’s far from your everyday nude. This is a statement shade, perfect for those who aren't afraid to make a bold lip a focal point of their makeup look. The "bright" descriptor refers to the vibrancy and luminosity of the color; it doesn't lean towards dullness or murkiness. The medium-dark intensity makes it versatile enough for both day and night wear, depending on the rest of your makeup. The cooler undertones prevent it from veering into overly warm territory, keeping it elegant and sophisticated. The cream finish provides a smooth, even application without sacrificing the intensity of the color. It's rich, opaque, and delivers full coverage in a single swipe, something that many liquid lipsticks struggle to achieve.
The formula itself is a testament to Burberry's commitment to quality. It's incredibly comfortable on the lips, avoiding the dryness and cracking often associated with matte liquid lipsticks. This is partly due to the "velvet" descriptor in the name, which accurately reflects the soft, almost plush feel on the lips. While it's not a hydrating formula in the same vein as the Burberry Kisses Hydrating Lip Colour, it doesn't feel drying or uncomfortable, even after hours of wear. This is a significant advantage over many long-lasting liquid lipsticks that prioritize longevity over comfort.
Comparing Brilliant Violet to the Burberry Family:
To fully appreciate Brilliant Violet, it's helpful to compare it to other shades and formulations within the Burberry lipstick range. Let's examine some key comparisons:
* Burberry Kisses Matte Lipstick: This line offers a different texture entirely. The Kisses Matte lipsticks are more traditional bullet lipsticks with a matte finish. While they provide excellent color payoff, they might lack the intense pigmentation and longevity of the Liquid Lip Velvets. Brilliant Violet's intensity and staying power would be difficult to replicate with a Kisses Matte shade. The texture is also vastly different; the Kisses Matte is more of a classic matte lipstick feel, whereas Brilliant Violet offers a softer, more comfortable velvet-like experience.
