KAT VON D Studded Kiss Lipstick Sexer ♥ Review + Swatches

I am so excited to finally review this beautiful Kat Von D Studded Kiss Lipstick in shade Sexer. I also have another one in shade Lovecraft, a pinky nude which I have been wearing on a daily basis, I currently have this love hate relationship with Lovecraft lol ~ so I have decided to give it a bit more time before I review the beauty.

Kat Von D's beauty line is exclusive to Sephora and it is the only place where you can purchase her makeup products without questioning its authenticity. Studded Kiss Lipstick is described as an innovative lipstick that coats lips with bold color and designed to look as rock 'n roll as its wearer. There are 30 shades to choose from in the Studded Kiss range with a few different finishes like: matte, metallic, shimmer etc...

Kat Von D Studded Kiss is formulated without Parabens, Sulfates and Phthalates. It claims to last up to 10 hours wear, one-swipe payoff and delivers a velvet touch comfort.

KVD Studded Kiss Lipstick comes packaged in a round tube with studs all over it and a KVD logo design on top of the cap, it really has that rock 'n roll look and feel, don't you think?! I may be TOO girly for that rock 'n roll theme, but I love this packaging! It's very different and unique to all other lipsticks out there (let's not count Asian brands, nothing can beat Asian beauty products packaging lol).

The Studded Kiss packaging is not as sturdy, I often find the cap comes loose in my hand bag and some times it really depends on its mood, if Sexer decides she need to take off her clothes, she will take her cap off and lay nakedly in my handbag lol. I am just so glad that the twisty part on the bottom is not easily twisted, or else the lipstick would already be ruined.

MOVE OVER CANDY YUM YUM! SEXER IS ABOUT TO STEAL YOUR SPOTLIGHT!

Sexer is described as a fluorescent pink, it is a bright / neon pink with cool undertones and a semi-matte finish. This lipstick is very pigmented; I like to wear my lipsticks with a couple of swipes, but this one really lives up to it's claim of "one-swipe" payoff, you really don't need to swipe it around too many times as one swipe already give it an opaque coverage.

I have previously mentioned how drying KVD's Everlasting Love Liquid Lipstick is when I reviewed it not long ago and now I am starting to think this whole drying thing runs in the Kat Von D lip products family lol! As much as I adore Sexer, it's very drying and it drags my lips when I apply; it's also very drying during the wearing time.

Even thou application was not comfortable nor easy, the pigmentation, the longevity and the shade still really impressed me. The color is just beautiful and the lipstick wore well for eight hours for me, didn't live up to its 10 hours wear claim, but it's good enough!

PACKAGING: ♥♥
rock n' roll, unique & fun; but not as sturdy
LIPSTICK COLOR: 
beautiful, bright & totally girly
APPLICATION: 
tugs & drags, not smooth but applies evenly
PIGMENTATION: 
opaque coverage, very very pigmented! one-swipe payoff!
LONGEVITY: 
wore well for eight hours on me
FORMULA: 
very drying
OVERALL: 4/5
despite its drying formula and its uneasy application, 
I still give this a four hearts rating because Kat Von D Studded Kiss
Sexer is truely an amazing lipstick, the color is so gorgeous and it's very pigmented.
Most of all, when worn on the lips, it gives me that plump lips look which I absolutely love.
I would recommend this even thou it's very dry during wear, you could always apply plenty of lip balm ;)


What are your thoughts on the KVD Studded Kiss lipsticks? Have you tried Sexer?

  1. That shade is just CRAZY. Love it! I totally am lacking this hot fuschia department, I need some solid ones! I've seen lots of reviews on KVD line and it seems like depending on the shade from this lipstick range, the formula is different. Not exactly a good thing! I have to skip this one, I need something that keeps hydrated but not too buttery, I might check out candy yum yum actually! It looks gorgeous on you though, I love hot pink lips!

    1. Thank you Sharlynn ^^ yeah I was told that the dryness depends on colors, I have another one, Lovecraft, a beautiful mauve nude which is even drier >.< I love the color and I wear it everyday, it's a matte but since it's so drying, I have to apply plenty of lip balms.. You should def check out CYY, it's matte aswell but not crazy drying. Beautiful bright bright pink x

    1. For me it's all about the packing :P I have tried the KVD lock it foundation and I really want to love it, I actually do love it, but it kept sliding off my nose area during the day :/ sometimes I don't understand why Kat Von D beauty brand has so much raves about it?!

    1. Seems like KVD is really into her dry lip products xD I have recently seen your review on one of her lipsticks that you have mentioned it's quite dry too? :)

  12. Sexer is so gorgeous on you!! hmmm. I've tried this lipstick in Underage (red) and found it to be a touch drying (rather than extremely drying). Perhaps the formulas are inconsistent depending on the colour :O

  13. The shade is stunning and I LOVE the packaging, but I have to say I would be totally put off by the formula! I just can't handle drying lip products :(

  15. The packaging is really something, it most definitely caught my attention, just a shame it is a lipstick and not a product I could use like a cream, that I would buy if it looked like this!
