Hello everybody!

Today I'll be reviewing and swatching the Peripera Airy Ink Velvet line from shade #1 to #5. I believe that many of you should be familiar with this product especially if you are a K-makeup lover! Peripera is very well-known for its lip products and if you are into Korean lip tints like I do, you might find yourself in a constant dilemma when trying to decide which colours to get for yourself.

Before I got my hands on the Airy Ink Velvet, I was already using products from its popular Ink the Velvet series and I loved them. You can imagine my excitement when I found out that they are coming out with this new and unique 'airy ink velvet' formula! Needless to say, I went searching high and low for them online and found some sellers on Shopee that ship these babies to me directly from Korea.

These products have gained a lot of popularity and attention from the media and now they are more readily available online on most shopping sites. I chose Shopee because it's the most convenient for me and I simply just love the platform for getting stuff online. Qoo10 will be another great place to get your hands on them as well!

There was only 5 shades available when I made my order, these colours are their spring/summer collection. Peripera eventually came out with 5 new shades for fall/winter as well as a brand new formula called Ink Cloud Velvet, all of which I have yet to try but I will definitely get my hands on them once I clear out some space from my makeup drawer!

You can also check out this video to watch me swatch these colours on my lips in live actions! In this video, I also talked about my thoughts on these products as a whole, as well as my personal ranking of these 5 shades and why! You should definitely watch it since I share more details and thoughts of these cute little ink bottles in the video as I do not want to make my post too long!

Show some love! ♡

Shade #1 - Heart Graprefruit

This my favourite shade to wear among these 5 shades that I got!

The colour is very fun and it helps to brighten my complexion even when I am having a dull face day. However, I do understand that a bright shade is not necessarily suitable for everyone and everyday but I really do urge you guys to try it out and share with me your thoughts on it!

If you have similar skin tone and hair colour as me, I think that you will really enjoy wearing this shade a lot! It's one of my perfect perk-me-up shades and I am getting a lot of use out of it! Totally worth the buy for me imo.

Shade #2 - Pretty Orange Pink

(second shade from the right)
I think the name of this shade has already explain the colour of it very clearly haha!
It is a really pretty pink colour with a hint of orange.

This was the most popular shade in Korea for a pretty long time and it was out of stock everywhere for a while. The colour is really soft but fun at the same time since it leans a little on the pastel-neon side. I think this shade will be perfect for those who are looking for a pretty orange pink colour, it is literally the name of this shade haha!

If you're not a fan of bright orangey shade like Heart Grapefruit, I think this will be the mellow version of it that you can try! It sure deserves the popularity that it has among Kmakeup lovers.

However, I do find that this particular shade tends to cling onto my dry patches (sometimes) and enhances the textural areas which I would prefer to hide. If you have non-problematic smooth moisturised lip then this should'nt be a concern for you.

According to some of the reviews I read online, some say it clings to dry patches and some say it doesn't. So I think at the end of the day, it depends on the condition of your lips but there's no harm giving it a try since it is pretty affordable and if you really have trouble wearing it on your lips, try using it as a cream blush!

Shade #3 - Sold Out Red
 (middle shade)
Sold Out Red is a classic red shade that one must have in your makeup collection.
It is a blue tone red, very simple and straightforward!

I personally like reds and oranges on me as these colours tend to bring more life to my face. I like this shade but I am not wow-ed by it. The shade is pretty common in Kmakeup line so you might already have a similar one in your current lip collection! However, the formula does make it a little bit more special since it feels so light and comfortable on the lips yet has really good pigmentation.

Shade #4 - Beautiful Coral Pink

Beautiful Coral Pink is a bright pink shade that instantly makes you summer-party ready!
However, contrary to the name, I don't personally see 'coral' in this shade. Let me know if you think this shade is more of a 'bright pink' or a 'bright coral pink'!

None of the other shades screams summer like this one does. This colour is girly but at the same time it's fun and vibrant! It is definitely a show stopper imo. Moreover, it applies and stains really nicely on my lips which certainly add more brownies point to this cute shade!

However, I am not really a fan of pink lip on me as I think that it kinda clashes with my skin tone and for some reason, I just don't think that I can pull pink lips off. That being said, this shade is not my most used or most loved but the reason is simply personal and has nothing to do with this colour.

I still think that this is a very fun shade even though I don't personally wear it that much but I believe many of you pink lips lovers out there are definitely gonna like this a lot!

Shade #5 - Elf Light Rose
(first shade from the left)
Elf Light Rose is a MLBB shade that leans a little bit to pink. This shade is the only neutral shade out of the 5 that I owned. It doesn't lean too cool nor too warm, that is why when you read online reviews of this collection, many would say that this shade is one of their faves or that they are getting a lot of uses out of this because this colour is neutral in tone, it caters to a larger group of people!

I like a good MLBB shade when I find one. Even though this shade does not stand out to me initially, I do find myself using it quite frequently since it's so easy to use and good for everyday. However, if you do have darker skin tone that I do, this might wash you out a little since it's on the pale/white based side.

Conclusion:

(after trying to remove these tints using micellar cleansing water)

All 5 colours from this line are gorgeous and the consistency are really unique and comfortable on the lips. The staying power is pretty impressive too and these shades stain quite evenly as well! As you can see from the second pic, after wiping it down with tissue papers, the colours are still there because it really does tint the skin, making them last a lot longer than a regular lipstick.

Even after using micellar cleansing water to try to remove these products, you can still faintly that the tints can still be seen vaguely on the skin, which further show its potential in the longevity department!

All in all, I really do like these products and I am still planning to get more shades from the Airy Ink Velvet line in the near future.

If I do miss out some points either in this post or in my video, do ask me on any of my social media platforms and I will be more than happy to answer! Ohya, do check out my review on YouTube as I go into more details in the video!
