Isabel's Victoria Beckham Beauty Rouge Victoria Matte Lipstick Review

Shade reviewed: Victoria Beckham Beauty Rouge Victoria Matte Lipstick in Coquelicot, £71.00

Shade: When I first saw Coquelicot, my instant reaction was ‘wow’! It’s got a vibrant hot pink undertone that lifts your spirits and it did a brilliant job of enhancing my tan.

Formula: I made sure to prepare my lips with a hydrating mask and then wore the lipstick alone. Unlike other statement lipsticks I've tried, you really don’t need a liner or gloss, it looked and felt amazing on its own. The formula was like nothing I've ever tried before, it’s soft, smooth and buttery.

Finish: My lips definitely felt soft with this lipstick on and didn’t look or feel dry whatsoever, despite the demi-matte finish, I was really impressed with how smooth it looked! This lipstick is demure, classy and elegant. I’ll be making some statements with it this autumn.

Dotty's Victoria Beckham Beauty Rouge Victoria Matte Lipstick Review

Shade reviewed: Victoria Beckham Beauty Rouge Victoria Matte Lipstick in Pinot, £71.00

Shade: I wore Pinot and I have to say, I loved it. Not one for everyday wear, but definitely a killer evening lipstick that complemented my complexion well.

Formula: I loved the formula. It glided on smoothly and felt comfortable on my lips throughout the day. It’s much longer lasting than many other lipsticks that I've tried, and you could feel the quality.

Finish: I found the finish to be quite similar to a beautiful satin. It feels like a real luxury item, and I would definitely recommend it to a friend. I especially loved how elegant it looked and what a lovely gift it would make.

Camille's Victoria Beckham Beauty Rouge Victoria Matte Lipstick Review

Shade reviewed: Victoria Beckham Beauty Rouge Victoria Matte Lipstick in Velours, £71.00

Shade: I tried Velours, a beautiful mahogany red that looks quite natural. It really suits my dark hair and feels very "me".

Formula: You can just apply and go! I love how easy it is to throw on. I think a red lip suits a minimal base and it’s a nice, classic look. Victoria Beckham Beauty has found the perfect balance between a matte finish and a hydrating formula, I think this is my new favourite red.

Finish: In terms of application, it’s minimal effort, maximum impact. If you haven’t worn many bold lips, this is a great one to start with. One thing I really loved was the packaging. It felt so premium and it’s a little different from the brand’s usual sleek and shiny black style.

Gabriella's Victoria Beckham Beauty Rouge Victoria Matte Lipstick Review

Shade reviewed: Victoria Beckham Beauty Rouge Victoria Matte Lipstick in Minuit, £71.00

Shade: I used the shade Minuit, it’s the darkest in the range and one I'll be reaching for before a night out. I love its deep, red wine tone.

Application: To ensure a crisp outline of my lip shape, I used a brush for a precise application then dabbed the bullet onto the centre of my lips and blotted gently with a tissue.

Finish: This lipstick helped me create a masterpiece. It felt so soft on my lips and dabs on easily. It was so easy to create a beautiful, diffused look with a slight ombre effect.

Stephanie's Victoria Beckham Beauty Rouge Victoria Matte Lipstick Review

Shade reviewed: Victoria Beckham Beauty Rouge Victoria Matte Lipstick in Heritage, £71.00

Shade: I would describe Héritage as a classic brick red with slightly warm undertones. I love a red lip, and this is the kind of shade I usually reach for. It’s pretty versatile - it definitely put a spring in my step around the office - but I'll also be wearing it come Saturday night.

Formula: It felt amazing. It was really hydrating and gave immediate colour pay-off. It’s a far cry from the dryness I used to experience with my matte lipsticks back in the day! I didn’t prep with any lip balm, and it glided on with such a smooth finish.

Finish: I applied straight from the bullet and there was zero feathering around my lips. The longevity was impressive, my look lasted around five hours despite eating and drinking and when the intensity faded, it looked intentional, like a lip stain.

Our Verdict On Victoria Beckham Beauty's Rouge Victoria Matte Lipsticks

If you’d like to create a statement lip, you’re in the right place.

THE PROS: All our reviewers raved about the smooth gliding formula that offers plenty of hydration. The lipstick was easy to apply, lasted well and everyone was impressed by the colour pay-off.

THE CONS: The darker the lipstick, the more precise your application must be. If you find this tricky, we recommend using a brush like Gabriella did. You can also clean up with concealer if you wish!

The Rouge Victoria Ritual

For the full Victoria Beckham Beauty lipstick ritual, lightly exfoliate and add a touch of Posh Balm in Glace, before outlining your lips with the Lip Definer. Apply your Rouge Victoria straight from the bullet in smooth gliding swipes. You can gently blot with a tissue or layer until you reach your desired intensity.
