REVIEW: Pretty Zombie Cosmetics Liquid Lipstick - Blue Moon

Pretty Zombie Cosmetics Liquid Lipstick in Blue Moon

Pretty Zombie Cosmetics are an independent manufacturer of beautiful products, who have apparently been in existence since 2008. I happened upon them on one of my usual matte liquid lipstick searches, which I do more than I care to admit, so rampant is my obsession, and I found this company, with a fantastically unconventional range of shades to please the most obscure cosmetics lover.



So I searched around like a madwoman and eventually found a uk stockist, in the form of a personal favourite web store Cute Cosmetics, which stocks vegan and cruelty free brands exclusively, which is obviously awesome. I snapped up Blue Moon, and thus, I have my new favourite lipstick....


Packaging. Yay etc!


So what's good about it. Well, it's another completely MATTE as hell lipstick. Properly matte, no pretendy matte, and no wimpy formula. This is full coverage in one swipe, it dries down, and that stuff is NOT leaving without some extreme encouragement and scrubbing. Whether this is good or bad depends on how lacking in patience you have. Frankly i'm willing to deal with it for some a cool shade. It's not perfect, it does crumble reasonably quickly if you eat and drink, BUT, one joy that you don't have with other brands, like Maybelline 24 hour bold matte, or Sleek Matte Me, is you can reapply to the crumbled bits and it looks fine, not lumpy and rubbish. I would suggest you give your lips a good moisturise, and an exfoliate, because this isn't the most forgiving formula, but who cares, YOU HAVE BLUE LIPS MOFO!

This is me. Yep, i've finally posted my ugly mug.


Before I get reams of abuse, I know i'm not blessed looks wise so you don't need to tell me i'm ugly. So many bloggers get abuse and they're heroes for dealing with it. I'm not a massive fan of being put down right now but I wanted to show the lipstick as a wearable thing. My hair is all washed out because I had a big allergic reaction to my hair dye and i've put on quite a bit of weight since I went through a bereavement and break up. Again, i'm aware!

If you want to get involved and purchase any of these beautiful shades, they are available at Cute Cosmetics for £13.50

  1. I love everything about this post apart from the bit where you put yourself down. It's lovely to finally see you and you're beautiful, and I'm not just blowing smoke up your arse. Anyway, on to the product; I'm not sure I could pull off blue myself, but I've been eyeing up their purples and pinks for months. It's only a matter of time until I give in!

    P.s. I've commented before as Cherry Chops. Partly thanks to a comment you made I started my own blog, so thank you for that x

  2. You are TOO lovely, how nice of you to be so kind. I have to say, seeing your clearly very attractive and aesthetically, in the magazine sense, face, you could clearly pull off blue. However it's a case of where you're going I think. I wouldnt' wear this down my local Happy Shopper, but i'd wear it to the clubs and gigs I go to. I see this lippy as an excuse to go out more awesome places! I reckon you should ;) And thank you for being so nice, it honestly means more than I can share X
