Spike Valentino - Batom mate

Matte shimmer

This is more of a matte shimmer lipstick, not much color is visible, but I do have darker lips. It applies smoothly and stays in place. I was expecting to have shimmer outside of my lips after a few hours but none at all. Love the look over all and great to use with lip products that could pair with a shimmer.

A makeup bag staple!

I love this lipstick so much I went out and got more! I love how buttery it feels! It is so smooth! I like that it has a matte finish that doesn’t pill on the lips! The color is great and I am obsessed with the magnetic case!

Beautiful glitter lips.

I received this item for free from Influenster in exchange for review purposes. I love the texture of this lipstick and the fact that it’s matte but not gritty at all especially once applied to the lips! I also love that it’s not an overwhelming amount of gold pigment that goes on the lips but just the most pretty glitter ever. The packing is very nice and not uncomfortable and I had no problems with it being overly scented.

Unique color lipstick

The matte lip color has creamy matte texture and long-lasting wear, vibrant color while incorporating cotton oil extracts for hydration. The lipstick is presented in a striking, refillable gold-studded case, adding a sustainable and stylish element to the product. I like the lightweight formula that feels smooth on the lips and provides a buildable color finish. It’s kinda high cost but its luxurious packaging and refillable design add value, so far it is my favorite.

Buttery and glittery

The Valentino Buttery Matte Lip Color is just as buttery as they claim. The shade Spike is less of a matte lipstick and more of a glitter topper as the pigment is quite sheer/light. For being so glittery- there aren’t huge chunks of glitter which means it’s not gritty like other glitter products.

So cute !!

I loved this so soft and smelled so good. The color was the best I could not wait to wear this out. I was so happy to get such a lipstick for free. And the cute packaging was everything.

Very pretty

The packaging for this product is so chic and luxurious. I love that you can reuse the outer packaging once you run out of the lip product. This product is so beautiful as a lip topper but it is sooo beautiful on it's own as well. The sparkles are very fine so you have a glitter look to it but it's not so over the top that you'd reach for a product that is more subtle. It doesn't seem to affect the lip product used underneath. The scent is lovely....but not for a lip product. It is a bit too "perfumey" for a lip product and it taste like you inhaled when spraying a perfume. I received this product complimentary in exchange for my honest review.

Beautiful!

Love this lipstick, the packaging feels so luxurious making it an experience to use. I like layering this on top of a bright colored lip for an extra gold shimmer!

Obsessed

Absolutely obsessed! Such a high quality product from a trusted brand. Easy to apply, beautiful shimmery shade that is long lasting, and has just the right amount of pigment. Not scented and the tube is gorgeous. Would definitely buy again!

Gorgeous!

I don’t typically go for shimmer lipsticks but this is an exception. Unlike other shimmery lipsticks, this is shimmery throughout. It doesn’t have a shimmer coat that gets wiped away after one swatch. Gorgeous and very easy on the lips

Cute packaging

I really liked it. I think the packaging is really cute and so is the color. It has a nice pigment to it and it’s fairly long lasting so if you’re gonna be out all day long, you don’t have to reapply as much. 

Pricey, but worth it

I have never in my life owned a lipstick this pricey. I always wondered what made them worth 2-4 times as much as what I would typically buy. This Valentino lipstick helped me understand what I was missing. From the start- that packaging was STUNNING. There is something to be said for pulling that out of your clutch and seeing your friends admire that beautiful spikey gold tube. Next, you might be concerned with how small the lipstick is...I was. Until i realized the incredible staying power. I did not have to reapply at all and even woke up the next morning after a night out with beautifully colored lips. Its pricey, but there's actually a good reason why for this brand.
