On February 12, 2015, I waited up patiently until 3am EST to make sure I could grab this bundle. There was no playing around with this launch! The entire bundle was up on the site around 2:40am and it was sold out within an hour. Like is this a MAC Limited Edition product or something?! Sorry to all the people who weren’t able to grab these, but keep reading so you know what to put on your wishlist when all three colors restock in April!
I know a lot of people were complaining that Jefree Star did not advertise a release time, but he did! He clearly listed on his Instagram at least 6-7 hours earlier that all three colors would be on the website at 12am PST! So it seems like only half of the beauty junkie community got the message and the other half woke up to some seriously slim pickings!
I just had a chance to dive into these colors today (they were delivered yesterday). I obviously ordered these on the 12th, and then there was President’s Day (USPS holiday) and then it snowed. So considering those things, the package got here in a reasonable amount of time.
The bundle comprised of all three restocked colors: Redrum, Celebrity Skin, and Unicorn Blood. Here are some swatches of all three on the back of my hand.
I found that Celebrity Skin needed at least two coats on me to create an opaque look. It was the sheerest of the three and it just didn’t want to build up! The swatch above is just with one swipe across my hand and you can see the streakiness left over from the doe foot applicator.
Redrum and Unicorn Blood had great coverage with just one swipe and didn’t look streaky.
I also wanted to compare these colors with some colors already in my liquid lipstick collection.
Here is Lime Crime Cashmere next to Celebrity Skin.
Here is also a comparison of all the deep red liquid lipsticks in my collection. As you can tell by the number of swatches in similar colors, this is my favorite fall/winter color!
I felt that the colors in the first launch (Redrum, Prom Night, and I’m Royalty) had more appeal because they were colors that weren’t so similar to other liquid lipsticks. Jeffree Star has already announced a third round of colors to release in March and those colors also look more unique.
If you were able to get your hands on any of these colors, how do you feel about them? Let me know in the comments!
