urban Decay Vice liquid Lipstick in Tryst, $18, and one of 30 Vice liquid Lipsticks in a completely new line from UD
Apparently, I have been remiss in keeping up with my gossip/pop culture blog reading, because I had no idea what a trap queen was.
Εσυ? because when I saw this new Vice liquid Lipstick from urban Decay, I was like, “What the hell is a trap queen??” Is she the queen of setting traps? Does she hunt? Τι έχει συμβεί?

Well, apparently, it’s a song, and it’s about a bad-@ss chick.
So there you go. It’s just a glimpse into my future. I can see it now… Connor Claire will throw out pop culture references, and I won’t get them.
The new urban Decay Vice liquid Lipsticks
Trap Queen is one of 30 brand new $18 Vice liquid Lipsticks, a new line coming soon from urban Decay. (To find out exactly when they arrive, you can sign up on the urban Decay website, and they’ll let you know.)

25 of 30 new urban Decay Vice liquid Lipsticks, $18 each
Urban Decay Vice liquid Lipstick in Trap Queen
Most of the 30 shades are mattes, and there are also a few metallics. Not all of the shades will be available everywhere, either. some of them will only be available on the urban Decay website and at freestanding UD stores (there’s a list below).
I hope you don’t mind if I break these up into a couple of posts, because baby girl is due for lunch (a chicken-apple-sweet potato puree), and she can’t wait for mommy to finish swatching two dozen liquid lipsticks for hours (she’s actually “talking” about it right now, a.k.a. “baby talking really loudly,” and I can’t hear myself think).
The oranges and reds
She did, however, allow me to swatch the reds, and I can already tell this much about this line: they look breathtaking in pics! Like, if I just slept in a chaise lounge all day long while people snapped pictures of me, and I didn’t have to eat or drink or interact with anybody ever, my matte lip game would be SO on point.
Of this first batch here, flame (has a metallic finish) looks like a hot mess up close, with vertical lip lines galore, but somehow it still looks amazing in pics.
Six of the seven red shades in the urban Decay Vice liquid Lipstick line from the top: Crimson, Trap Queen, 714, Tryst, Tilt and Flame
Pigment = YASSS
These are intensely pigmented (you don’t need to apply much), and the unscented, unflavored formula isn’t drying.

What about the wear time?
I wore shade 714 for about six hours today, by which time I’d finished two meals and two big jugs of water. I also went through several tissues filled with nasty green snot (sorry…I’m getting over a cold right now), and kissed the back of my hand roughly 50 times to simulate roughly how many times I would have normally kissed Connor, and 714 didn’t hold up well.
The color around the edge of my upper lip and in the middle area had all but disappeared. most of the color on my lower lip was still there, but it was hanging out with my lip flakes, so I’m not sold on the wear time of these yet. I don’t think they last as long as the MAC retro Mattes, but I’ll keep you posted as I keep playing with them.

What’s the take-home message so far?
Even though I don’t think these will last as long on my lips as some other liquid lipstick formulas, they look amazing in pics when they’re freshly applied. If I were wearing them and living that paparazzi life, kickin’ it with the Kardashians…
Wait — forget that. I wouldn’t want to do that. Kanye looks like a handful, and I’d be that one person in the crew continuously rolling her eyes.
But I digress…

ΥΣΤΕΡΟΓΡΑΦΟ. Μιλώντας για τραγούδια (από πότε μιλούσαμε για βασίλισσα Trap;), το άκουσα το ένα από τον Kelis για πρώτη φορά σε ηλικίες. Είχα το iTunes που έβαλε “τυχαία”, και έφτασε ενώ ο Connor και εγώ έκανα την καθημερινή δόση της Mommy / Baby Dance Time.
Με πήρε να σκεφτώ πώς ποτέ δεν ξέρετε τι θα κάνετε στη ζωή την επόμενη φορά που ακούτε ένα συγκεκριμένο τραγούδι. Όπως, την τελευταία φορά που άκουσα αυτό το τραγούδι ήταν πιθανώς πριν από 10 χρόνια, γιατί έχω το CD στο αυτοκίνητό μου και θα το άκουσα όταν θα οδηγούσα στη δουλειά μου στον Λογοτεχνικό Οργανισμό (Α.Κ.Α “τον τόπο όπου έχω κολλήσει πίσω από μια συσκευή φαξ για 15 λεπτά μια μέρα “).
Δεν είχα ιδέα πίσω τότε ότι θα είχα ακόμα blogging το 2017 και να ακούω το τραγούδι και πάλι ενώ χορεύει με την κόρη μου. Η ζωή είναι τρελή, huh;
