KKW Beauty Semi Matte Liquid Lip Bundle Review & Swatches
So KKW beauty came out with a new liquid lip and of course I had to try it. After looking at the shades, I just decided to get the whole bundle because I love all the shades!

Ok moving on to the new lip formula.
Brand’s description: Indulge in all 8 shades of our brand new lip formula with rich pigments that glide onto the lips for intense color and a smooth, velvety texture with a semi-matte finish. This new formula contains the perfect balance of Passion Fruit Seed Oil, Vitamin E, and Kaolin, so your lips will be provided with hydration, antioxidant protection, and color that will last you the day
The bundle includes:
Birthday Suit - Beige nude
Classic Kim - Peach nude
Birthday Gift - Apricot Nude
Unwrapped - Warm rosy nude
HBD - Warm rosy cinnamon
After Party - Intense merlot burgundy
Surprise Party - Bright orangey red
Birthday Kiss - Bright hot pink
This formula is not a liquid lipstick. It’s a liquified cream lipstick that’s lightweight, easy to blend, and leaves a slight tint. They are not transfer proof so they will smudge if you wear them under a mask. However, I have found that dabbing with a tissue helps prevent that.
I prefer to dab them on my lips with the applicator and use my fingers to blend (so they are more sheer). I feel that when applying with the applicator all over my lips the formula will smudge my mask anyways so I keep it minimal. But I look forward to mask-free days when I can wear these in full!
Below are closeups of each shade.
Birthday Suit (beige nude) is very very pale. In the promo photo it almost looks like a concealer. WIll need to be paired with a very dark smokey eye.
Birthday Gift (apricot nude) is is an easier to wear nude because it leans a bit more orange.
Classis Kim (Peach Nude) is the perfect nude shade in my opinion. It has a hint of pink and brown.
Unwrapped (warm rosy nude) is also easy to wear. I would recommend picking either this or Classic Kim. You don’t need both.
And below are the swatches of the 4 nudes!
And here are more closeups:
Next are 4 darker shades.
HBD (warm rosy cinnamon) is my MLBB shade. My lips look super natural when wearing this. It’s my go to shade.
Birthday Kiss (bright hot pink) may look a bit intimidating, but I have been wearing this shade on a daily basis. Once blended out, it leaves a really cute pinky tint that makes me look super young!
Surprise Party (bright orangey red) to be honest is not that bright ( I mean I would imagine bright meaning neon bright). It’s still easy to wear (I love orange lipsticks). I wear this on vacations when I want my lips to pop.
After Party (intense merlot burgundy) is quite dark (but still wearable). I only dab the inner part of my lips and use my fingers to blend to the outer parts. I also wear this on vacations.
And the swatches!

And that’s it for this post everyone! I hope it was helpful.
