Spike Ultra Matte Lipstick

Love

Loved the packaging of this lipstick so cute and when applying it was so smooth and buttery color was alittle different then what I am used to but I just layered it with other lip colors.

love this as a topper

It's beautiful with lipstick or lip liner. Adds the perfect amount of sparkle ✨️

Cute glitter finish

Very cute lipstick. Wouldn't call it buttery at all. It was very dry and dragged on the lips but it does leave a nice glittery trail. Wouldn't use it everyday but would use to add a little something cute to a lip color. Packaging felt nice and heavy, giving off a luxurious feel.

Perfect

The packaging is very chic and well designed for the lipstick's purpose. It has a super comfortable smell and a very soft texture. It has high coverage and wonderful pigmentation. It looks like you have gold on your lips. My review for this product: I'm not a fan of lipstick, but I can't stop using this one because it's so beautiful.

O.K., this lipstick is amazing!

First, the color knocks me out. Not too pinky-purple-brown…just divine! And it has lasted all day. ALL. DAY. I couldn’t be happier with this purchase!

Great matte choice

The case is so cute, magnetic and heavy. It has a sweet, pleasant scent and super smooth texture. Application was smooth and the pigmentation was great. It is matte but not drying as some others can be.

Best I've had in awhile

The packaging of this product is so secure and fancy, I've never had a lip product with a magnetic closure. The lipstick itself is perfect, not too thick, lasts a decent amount of time, and the shade is so beautiful and nicely pigmented with my completion.

Really comfortable, powdery lip!

This lipstick is different than any others that I’ve tried. It feels like a powder as you apply it and wears really well. It’s super comfortable on the lips. The packaging is gorgeous and super heavy which makes it feel really luxurious. I also love that it’s magnetic! I’m only giving it four stars because it doesn’t last terribly long and the packaging has some wear/paint coming off after only two months.

Masterclass in packaging

Oh, Valentino. What a gorgeous lipstick you have made. Really, though- the component on this is stunning. It’s a magnetic, refillable, matte brushed-gold spiked lipstick case that oozes opulence. It doesn’t get fingerprints stuck all over it like a Patrick Ta package (IYKYK) and looks great in your purse. I wear it (pictured) with my Makeup Forever pencil in the shade Anywhere Caffeine and it’s the perfect topper (does not contain pigment on its own- just glitter). The scent is pleasant, but definitely noticeable. If you prefer a scentless lippie, skip this one. Pigmentation wise- the glitter is fairly subtle. Compared to glitter glosses and high impact glitter bombs, this formula truly does provide a matte glitter experience, which is a unique product value! If you’re looking for high impact glitter, i’d go for a gloss at a lower pricepoint. However, I’m thrilled with this lippie and will absolutely be using it til it’s gone!

Good as a topper!

This product is definitely more of a topper kind of product but it does add a cute shimmer to your look. I wouldn’t recommend it by itself but it’s still good if you want to add some sparkle to your lip combo.

Packaging is the main draw

Hmm… I’m not sure how to feel about this one! On one hand, the packaging is GORGEOUS, and absolutely feels premium (as well as emulating that classic Valentino look & feel). There’s clearly a lot of attention to detail—like the little Valentino logo etched on to top of the lipstick itself. But on the other hand, it’s quite a small tube for the price, and the actual product is… fine? To be honest, it was a bit underwhelming. It’s a nice matte product if you’re a fan of that (personally I lean towards satin/gloss), but it can also be a bit drying, especially if your lips are already a bit patchy. The pigment is pretty, but it’s also a more muted, cool toned color that I probably won’t end up wearing that often (in favor of my other berry-toned lipsticks). For the most part, I think this lipstick is really nice, and worth the money if you just want something that feels super premium to use. But if you’re seeking the best formula out there, this might not be the one for you.
