Product details

Four Ink The Velvet tints in 030 Classic Nude, 028 Mauveful Nude, 026 Well-Made Nude and 024 Milky Nude on a warm beige table beside dusty-rose velvet and star anise

Velvet lip tint

A light, velvety matte tint with high colour payoff that lasts through meals, for gradient or full lips.

Peripera’s Ink The Velvet is the brand’s long-running velvet tint. It feels light and refreshing, sets to a smooth matte that stays soft rather than dry, and keeps its vivid colour for six hours or more, even through eating and drinking. Dab it in the centre for a gradient or fill the whole lip for a fuller look. The line covers a wide range of nudes, roses, plums and reds.

What’s inside

The ingredients doing the work

  • Velvet silicone base

    Silicone and soft silicone gels and powders at the top of the list, behind the smooth, velvety matte finish.

    No. 1, 2, 8 of 46 on the list

  • Moisture inside

    Water is held inside the silicone by emulsifiers, which is how the tint feels refreshing and keeps lips from feeling dry under the matte.

    No. 3, 4, 5, 7 of 46 on the list

  • Lasting colour

    A light solvent that evaporates so the colour sets, plus a film-former that helps it last through meals.

    No. 6, 18 of 46 on the list

Supporting botanicals

  • Star anise extract

How to use

Gradient or full

  1. 1

    Wipe

    Wipe the tip on the neck of the tube so you start with a thin layer.

  2. 2

    Dab the centre

    For a gradient, dab colour on the inner lips and blend it outward.

  3. 3

    Fill or layer

    For full colour, cover the whole lip and add a second coat once the first has set.

Good to know

  • Shades include the 024 to 030 nudes (Milky, Cinnamon, Well-Made, Strawberry, Mauveful and Classic), 40 Calm Rosy and 41 Cool Off Rosy, plus roses, plums and reds.
  • Star anise extract is near the end of the list, so it is a small amount.
  • Contains fragrance.
  • A tint stains, so remove it with an oil or lip remover. Each tube is 4 g.
