Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipsticks in Lovecraft and Mother



Hi everyone,

One of the products that I really wanted to get my hands on when I went to Sephora was the Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipsticks. Having heard such good things about them I couldn’t wait to give them a try for myself, especially as I am new to Kat Von D products as a whole.

I spent ages looking at all the different shades and after my fiancée complaining at me for the 100th time, I eventually plumped for Lovecraft and later in the week went back for the shade Mother. With Lovecraft I was drawn to the cool toned mauve colouring and I knew I had nothing like it in my collection already. I am a girly girl at heart however, which is why the brighter pink shade Mother eventually made it into my basket. The colour is just so pretty and I knew it would be a lipstick that I would get a ton of wear from.

Top shade - Mother, Bottom shade - Lovecraft


I had high expectations for these lipsticks and with claims such as "life-proof lipstick that will not wear off" and "24-hour wear", they had a lot to live up to! The lipsticks themselves go on really nicely and dry to a matte finish. As with most liquid lipsticks, they do feel a little tight on the lips after a while but I didn’t find them to be overly drying to the point of not being able to wear them, which has happened many times before.

With regards to staying power, I did find that they last a long time without too much eating or drinking - around six hours. However, the last time I wore the shade Mother, I came home and was horrified to find that it had smudged around my mouth! Of course no one had bothered to tell me so I have no idea how long I had been walking around like that for. This is the only time that this has happened and I was eating and drinking a lot that day but for a lipstick that claims to be ‘life-proof’ I wouldn’t have expected this to happen. I guess with the formula being not that thick and not as as drying, you may have to compromise on the wear time. For me, I have rather it be this way round than my lips ending up looking like dried prunes by the end of the day so it wouldn't put me off purchasing more lipsticks in the range.

Have you tried the Kat Von D Ever Lasting Liquid Lipsticks? What did you think of them? Were there any shades that you would recommend?

Thanks for reading,

Hannah xx

  1. I love, love, love, possibly live for KVD Beauty. Her ELL have great staying power/pigmentation. I want Miss Argentina so bad, but I have so many KVD lipsticks sigh. Mother and Lovecraft are great picks! I have the Studded Kiss in Lovecraft, such a pretty color. With KVD always adding more colors its hard to pass them up.

    1. I didn't see the Miss Argentina shade so I will have to check that one out and some of her other products as well :) x

  2. I've never tried any Kat Von D products before. These shades are so beautiful, so I don't blame you for buying both. Thats crazy that it smudged though, considering that it claimed to be long lasting.

    1. I was so surprised that it smudged like that and also slightly mortified that I had been walking around like that for half of the day! I still like them overall though and I'll just be more careful to keep a check on it throughout the day :) x

  3. I have only tried KVD Studded lipsticks but never the liquid ones. And this is the first time I'm reading about the lipstick smudges, good to know!

    1. I was really shocked that it had smudged like that as it didn't cross my mind that it might at all. I'm hoping it's just a one off! x

  4. I haven't tried them but both shades look really nice! It's always annoying when it smudges, or when you accidentally get it on your teeth, but atleast the formula is forgiving x

  6. Oh no! I'm sorry that happened, girl! I guess it's one of those products that you need to touch up when you have a busy day. He colors are absolutely beautiful. Such a shame they didn't hold up to their claims because I've heard such a buzz around her lipsticks. Thanks for sharing your experience with us and I hope you have a great week ahead, beauty!

  11. I have never bought anything from this brand yet. Both shades are so beautiful I can't even decided which one I like more. Great choices.

    1. I go through phases with it, sometimes I like really bold shades and then others I go for a more natural look or use a lip balm instead. At the moment I am definitely going through a bold look phase though :) x

  13. That's the big thing that makes me not go for long lasting matte liquid lipsticks. I hate when it feels tight and drying and makes all the cracks on my lips show. Do you put on a lip balm over the lipstick during the day when your lips get dry or do you not need to? I always wonder how that would affect things.

    1. I really hate it when they are drying too as I already have naturally dry lips so anything that makes it worse is just a big no no for me. I haven't tried wearing a lip balm over the top before as I just never thought to but I'm definitely going to give it a go now you mention it :) I'll let you know how it goes! x

  14. Totally with you on preferring this alternative to having dried-up lips; it's such an annoying trait/side-effect of most liquid lipsticks! These two shades look gorgeous Hannah, especially Mother!

    1. I totally agree, I already have dry lips to begin with so I try to avoid anything that will make them worse. I'm glad you like the shades though, they are both so pretty :) x

  15. I never wore Kat von D, but I would like to try the brand one day... concerning the lipsticks, really beautiful, but yes, eating and drinking and then ending with stains :) that's not good... it happened to me with other lipsticks :) Hope you have a very lovely day!

    1. It is a pain but I guess it would be difficult to create a lipstick that has the staying power and isn't drying. Overall I'm really happy I decided to give them a try :) x

  22. I'm sure these will look great on you Hannah. Lovely review. I do really want to try these, the Mother shade is so pretty, actually I adore both colours. I recently just bought two lipsticks but I must try the KvD liquid lipsticks now!

  23. I love the look of the lovecraft shade, not so keen on the drying you experienced as that really is my pet hate with lipsticks along with smudging. I'm not adventurous with lippies for these reasons. Thanks for sharing,

    1. I know that's the trouble with liquid lipsticks as they can be really drying but then you get better staying power so I guess it's swings and roundabouts with this one. x

  24. I have heard so much about Kat Von D, so I'd love to give the whole brand a go. These lipsticks look lovely, a shame about them being so dry towards the end but at least the colour is flawless.

    1. The colours are really pretty and I would definitely try some more from the range. I would love to try Kat Von D's normal lipsticks as well so I think they would be next on my list to pick up :) x

  25. I have only Lolita and I adore the formula and the color. I'm not much into liquid lipsticks although I have a few that I love but I always wear a nourishing balm under all liquid lippes because they can be so drying. These ones are pretty though.

    1. I have heard a lot about Lolita so I think I need to pick this up soon and give it a try :) I will have to try adding a lip balm under my lipstick as this isn't something I have tried before but hopefully it would help stop my lips from drying out too much. x
