Kat Von D Foiled Love Lipstick: Valentine


Sephora's description: metallic hot pink

My rating:





The lipstick




The lip










The lowdown

Of all the Kat Von D lipsticks I've tried so far, this was the sheerest. I suppose the point of this color is not so much opacity as it is glitter, and I have to say, while the color is fine and I do enjoy a bit of shine, I am not a glitter-in-my-lipstick person. 


The look

I created a subtle block with Valentine on the bottom lip and Kat Von D's Lolita on the top. The colors are similar, although Lolita supplies more of a coral tinge while Valentine is a cooler magenta with a foiled shine and all those little sparkles.

Rock that loud lip!

Kat Von D Foiled Love Lipstick: Forever & Never


Sephora's description: metallic golden peach

Note: I love this color! I love the opacity too! The reason I'm only giving it four lips out 
of five is because the case broke, and that's an automatic point deduction.

The lowdown

Full disclosure: I'm in love with this color, I think it is amazing and everyone should have it. That said, the case broke without provocation, and now when I apply light pressure to the raised bullet with my lip brush the lipstick recedes back into its case like a recalcitrant turtle. Sigh. I had to dock points. But the color and opacity are fantastic, so all I'm sayin' is it might be worth a struggle with the hardware to get this stuff on your face.

The look

I created an odd ombre for this look, in which it moves from Forever & Never to Kat Von D's Rosary on the top lip and from Rosary to Forever & Never on the bottom. I quite like the look, and I think you should rock it too!

Kat Von D Foiled Love Lipstick: Beranice

The lowdown

I like the color, a nice, bright, shiny red. It looks fine on me, although it would probably look better if it were a bit warmer. I found I needed less of this lipstick to create a completely opaque lip, unlike some of the other Kat Von D lipsticks. It could be that the shininess of the lipstick reflects enough light that the lipstick appears to give full coverage with light applications, but hey, I'm not complaining!




The look 

I blocked Beranice with Valentine, a bright sparkly pink by Kat Von D which you'll see on my top lip.




It is obviously a very subtle block, one that most wouldn't notice unless close enough to see the glitter.

Kat Von D Painted Love Lipstick: Underage Red

The lowdown

Like many of the Kat Von D lipsticks, I found this one difficult to apply to a level of opacity that I liked. I could see that the brush often removed lipstick as I tried to apply more.That said, what a bangin' color! I absolutely love the strength of this red.



The look

I created an ombre look from bottom to top with Underage Red and another Kat Von D color, Forever & Never.
