One of my favorite glosses

I have this in two shades, ( Please forgive me, and Unicorn Blood, but today, I mainly want to focus on the shade Unicorn Blood.

I have had a serious long-term love affair with the color Unicorn Blood.

Unicorn blood, the liquid lip, has been my favorite go-to lip color for like.. four years. If I needed to feel like a badass boss, I wore it. On top of that, five of my friends swatched it on them, and on each of us, it was the perfect color, even if it looked drastically different on each of us. ( I'm a pale ghost with a very cool undertone, my friends are either natural or very warm undertoned with skin shades that range from light to immensely dark. I normally can not wear the same shade of anything they can wear due to how cool-toned my skin is. )

Then he came out with Velvet trap, and I of course nabbed Unicorn blood and ended up horrified when the color was not even close to the same shade as my beloved liquid lip. It was given to a friend who can rock that rust-brown lip shade with a slightly too orange undertone for my cool-toned skin.

Then, Mister Star dropped the Supreme gloss in Unicorn Blood. I bought it, hoping, praying it would be the same shade as my beloved liquid lip. I had had Please forgive me and I knew I loved the formula already so, I had my fingers crossed that this would be a color match.

Turns out, it's not an exact shade match, but it's close enough that I'm happy with it.

The applicator is so unique, and it does give you enough product that I only need a single dip to give my entire lip a coat. I do tend to break out a lip brush, mainly because otherwise, the applicator's lily-like shape can mess up the shape on my upper lip.

The formula is a smidge sticky, so if you have long hair, be careful. Also, when wearing it with a mask, it will get everywhere quickly if you use too much.

It has a ton of pigmentation, and it is utterly beautiful on the lip. I'd say use a lip brush if you want sharp clean lines on the edge of your lip, or if you are doing that Anime blurred lip tread, use a Qtip to blur your edges carefully.

All Mister Star needs to do is make Unicorn blood in his THE GLOSS formula and I will be utterly set for my Unicorn blood fix.

Pretty but not for me

I got this in the Mystery Box, and I ended up giving them to two of my friends. ( because I bought two different boxes, and it was in both).

The quality was great, it just was not a color story that I liked, and the colors on my cool tone, pale skin looked like poop, dirt, and frost bite.

On my friends, both warmer skin toned and one in much much deep skin tone looks amazing in these shades.

If you are a cool tone skinned human being, I'd suggestion go elsewhere, but if you like warm tones, and icy blues, this is a great palette

Unique, but...

The pros: The packaging is so much better than his other ones. Less bulky, more streamlined, and just easier to store.

The doe-foot is unique, and I wasn't sure how I'd like it, but I love that it's one dip and done, not a multi dip needed to get my gloss on.

The pigmentation is amazing, and it's as if his liquid lip and his lip-gloss got together and had a love child and this was born of it.

I ordered the Please forgive me, because Jeffree said it to be a Pink mauve with a glossy finish, and I'm a sucker for a Mauve anything.

This is not mauve. It's a bolder pink. there is nothing mauve about this shade at all. It's a lovely shade, just not what I had been expecting.

It does have a strong fake vanilla extract scent but it fades on the lip. I'd return it, but honestly, it's too much of a hassle to deal with the post office during a good day, much less during a pandemic to bother with. I will have to try a different color later.

I'd four-star it, but I removed a star for the color issue.

One of my favorite glosses

I own two now: mouthful and beaded glass. I used to own Heaven's gate but I passed it on to a friend who likes a more glittery lip than I do.

Beaded Glass is serious so beautiful. It's a sheer tint with glitter but not over the top glitter, just.. a nice soft sparkle.

My favorite liquid lip

okay, I own like.. seven Jeffree Starr Velour Liquid Lipsticks. Unicorn blood is my holy grail, nothing but net, never fails to impress people lippie.

I love that it stays in place, it's bold without shifting colors, and is just so good!

Packaging is beautiful BUT shade is not good...

I'm a huge, huge fan of Jeffree's Unicorn blood liquid lip. It's my favorite, signature sort of color that I will wear whenever I want to feel like a badass or want to feel beautiful.

I bought Velvet Trap Lipstick Unicorn Blood thinking it's the same color as the liquid lip.

It's so not. While the liquid lip has that deep red blood look and color, the Velvet trap version is more rusty brown with some red thrown in.

It was not the color I have come to know as Unicorn blood. I even swatched side by side and it clearly NOT the same color. Since I bought it from Jeffree's site, I was stuck with it, so I gave it to a friend who liked the color, even though she too was heartbroken by the use of the Unicorn blood name, without the color we love being actually used.

Formula wise, this has a very dry, and sort of thick feeling on the lips. Not my favorite formula. I will stick to his liquid lips.

I give it three stars because the bullet and the box are beautiful, but color and formula need serious work.

pretty, but not his normal standards

I purchased this day of launch on beautylish, and got it on Sunday thanks to two-day shipping. It was well wrapped, as always.

Swatches were okay, but when I applied Glass wet with a flat brush, it crumbled in the pan which was really disappointing.

Normally this company's metallics are more blinding and don't crumble but glass wet is more of a topper shade and crumbled in the pan after barely being touched with a flat brush.

Thus far the other shades have been really nice.

I'll keep the palette mainly cause the other colors are good. This is a strictly damp brush and finger only sort of palette.

beautiful, but packaging had issues...

First impressions:

Really pigmented, I think they will need a little work to blend out, and I need to try the glitter-infused one to see if there is fall out on my face. Your Majesty basically vanishes into my skin tone, cause it’s practically the same shade as my skin, so I can see myself reaching for it a lot! I am looking forward to creating a few new looks with this. Most of the colors were true to color or were slightly darker on the skin with a finger or brush. ( attached pictures so you can see. I did one swatch with a finger, one with a brush, Wet jewel has three swatches: finger, brush, wet brush.) A few colors did leave a faint stain, even with primer and foundation under the swatches first. ( Dungeon, Bleeding Heart, & Vile Serpent. )

Issues I did have was with the packaging: It is really heavy. The mirror protector was stuck and didn't tear away cleanly, leaving pieces of it behind. I had to use tweezers to get some of it off of the mirror and there are still pieces of it stuck UNDER the purple part of the packaging which is annoying considering it's a 54 dollar palette. Also, some of the shadows had had fall out on to the packaging before I ever touched any of the shadows. The extreme wet shadows lost the stamp with just swatching, by barely tapping my finger or brush in, which made me sad since I love seeing the stamps in them.

Overall, I enjoy the palette and Jeffree as always as killed it with the colors, I'm just disappointed with the packaging issues.

Love this scrub

been using the Strawberry gum scrub for two years now, and I swear it's changed how my lips feel in general. It's just freaking awesome!

Beuaiful shadows, wish their was protective sheet over shadows in shipping.

This is my first Jeffree Star eye-shadow Palette. I have purchased his Platinum Ice highlighter palette ( which I freaking LOVE) before as well as his liquid lippies (hello Unicorn Blood which is my freaking HG reddish lippie I wear more than anything else in my collection.) and lip scrub (which I think are some of the best ever- can we say yum to Strawberry Gum?). The Beautylish packaging was amazing as always, as were the little black velvet bag with the shampoo samples that I won’t use due to allergies, but I will give them to a friend who will love them. I always love the Jeffree Star tissue paper with his tattoos on it. It’s always an event to get them in the mail. However, the palette itself was missing the protective plastic cover in between the shadows and mirror as well as the normal peel away cover for the mirror. My Mirror has literal eye shadow imprints all over it, and I just opened it. There were also smudges of Soaked and Tasty around the palette like in transit it got knocked loose and the shadows have lightly stained some of the white of the packaging which was and is a disappointment considering the cost of the palette. I cleaned up most of it with a q tip, but I just feel like, for the price, the mirror and the shadows should have had some sort of protective covering.

Now as for the shadows, going off of quick unprepared swatches with my fingers, most of these shades are really nice and buttery. The shades Cotton Candy, And What ?, Orange Juice, and Bite me, I worry will go hardpan just because they almost feel wet to the touch as if infused with some sort of oil in the formula. That being said, Bite me is one of the prettiest darn purples I have seen in a long time. Again, just from quick swatches. The shade Wow will need to be built up a bit, to get a true full yellow color but is lovely after two or three swipes. Jawbreaker I think will make a STUNNING inner eye corner highlight, and I may even pop it on my cheekbones when I want some serious freaking glow.

The three colors I feel I am going to be getting the most use out of are Snack, Jawbreaker, and Gum Drop. Snack is just such a shimmery pink shade, Jawbreaker cause it’s got a cool shift in the coloring, and Gumdrop because I love a good lilac eye shadow

The three shades I didn’t think I would like that I actually sort of love and can’t wait to play with are Brain Freeze, Orange juice and Lemon drop. They are not the normal shades I go for, but these are just so rich in the color I have to play and totally go out of my comfort zone for these.

Again just my overall first impression is: the packaging is super cute but it needed to have the protective film over the mirror and or the eye shadows in my personal opinion. The shadows seem to be very pigmented, and fun. Just from the quick swatches, I’m going to enjoy playing with these shadows and I’m glad I have them in my collection.

I was not paid for this review, and I purchased this with my own money.
