Confidence Shiny Velvet Cream Lipstick #173

Confidence Shiny Velvet Cream Lipstick #173

$22.00 $11.00 On Sale$22.00

Comfortable, Hydrated Color In 3 Simple Steps

Here’s exactly how Confidence #173 works:

1

Uncap and Twist Up

Remove the cap and turn the base until a little of the rich berry color rises. Start with just a touch of this bold shade.

2

Line With Unapologetic

Trace and fill your lips with the Waterproof Lip Liner in Unapologetic, the perfect match for Confidence. A lined base gives this bold shade a clean, defined edge and helps the color last.

3

Smooth On Confidence

Smooth Confidence over the liner and let the creamy texture do the work. One pass gives medium to high coverage, and a light blot softens the finish.

Caring Ingredients
Behind Every Bold Swipe

A silicone-free, cruelty-free lipstick developed for mature lips, with no added fragrance.

Shea Butter & Olive Oil

An ultra-creamy, hydrating formula made for mature lips.

Cruelty-Free

Never tested on animals.

Rich Color Payout

Medium to high coverage with color that shows up in a single glide.

Why Mature Women Switched to Confidence Shiny Velvet Cream Lipstick

A blue-based rich berry with a soft golden sheen. Our signature bold shade, the one you see Nikol wearing.

Bare Lips to Bold, Creamy Color

Bare Lips to Bold, Creamy Color

In this before and after, bare lips go to bold, even color over a lip liner. The ultra-creamy, hydrating formula gives you medium-to-high coverage and glides onto mature lips without tugging, never dry like a matte or stain.

Rich Berry Color in One Swipe

Rich Berry Color in One Swipe

A blue-based rich berry with a soft golden sheen, Confidence reads as a flattering red-berry on the lips. One gentle pass gives medium to high coverage.

Light on Your Lips

Light on Your Lips

Worn as a finished lip, this bold shade looks fresh and even on mature lips, never heavy or cakey. The ultra-creamy formula gives you immediate color payout, yet it still feels light and comfortable, with a smooth, soft sheen.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Confidence, from the matching liner to daily wear.

Confidence #173 is a blue-based rich berry with a soft golden sheen, our signature bold 'red'/berry statement shade (the one you often see Nikol wearing in reels). For pairings, use Unapologetic waterproof lip liner underneath. The Crystal Clear Invisible Waterproof Lip Liner works under any shade to prevent feathering. A bold shade can look a little different once on depending on lighting and skin tone.

Because it is a creamy, comfortable formula, the lipstick removes easily with your usual makeup remover or a gentle cleanser. A micellar water or an oil-based remover on a cotton pad will lift the color and any liner underneath without scrubbing at delicate lips.

Yes, our lipsticks are fragrance-free, with no added fragrance. (Our lip glosses do have a light, fresh mint scent, but the lipsticks do not.) Our products are cruelty-free, paraben-free, and fragrance-free. If you have a specific ingredient concern or sensitivity, we recommend reviewing the full ingredient list on the product page and patch-testing first; if you ever notice irritation, stop use and contact us.

The Waterproof Lip Liner in Unapologetic matches Confidence #173. Top with Upgrade Lip Gloss #94 (bright fuchsia) or Ignite Lip Gloss #176 (warm cranberry-rose) for a bold finish.

Our lipsticks are long-wearing but they are intentionally not a dry, matte "stay-all-day" or stain-type formula. They stay comfortable and hydrating, which means you may want to reapply through the day, especially after eating or drinking. To extend the wear, fill in your lips with the matching waterproof lip liner first and lightly blot after applying. Applying to clean, dry lips also helps the color hold.

Yes, the Shiny Velvet Cream Lipstick was designed specifically for mature women. The ultra-creamy, hydrating formula glides on without tugging and gives medium-to-high coverage that looks fresh rather than heavy or cakey. Pairing it with a matching waterproof lip liner underneath helps define the lip shape and keeps color from traveling into fine lines. And there are no age rules in beauty; our customers in their 60s, 70s, and beyond wear every shade, including our reds and berries, beautifully.

If you want comfortable, hydrating color made for mature lips with a soft, luminous finish, this is a great place to start. For an easy first pick, natural everyday shades like Pretty Smart (soft pink), NikRay (rose beige), or 1975 (muted nude) are very wearable; if you want more color, Actually I Can (pink) or Aperitif (berry mauve); and for bold looks, Confidence or Fleur. Tell us your undertone and the look you want and we will tailor a recommendation, and pair it with the right liner and gloss.

Confidence #173 is our signature bold shade, a blue-based rich berry with a soft golden sheen that reads as a flattering, vibrant red-berry (it is the shade you often see Nikol wearing in reels). For a warm red-orange, Beach House #122 is a toasted coral, and for a bright fuchsia pop, Fleur #34 makes a statement. Depending on lighting, skin tone, and how it is applied, a bold shade can look a little different once on, so we are happy to help you set expectations before you order.

For the best result, start with a lip balm to smooth the lips, then line and fill them with the matching waterproof lip liner to create a long-wearing color base and define the shape. Apply the Shiny Velvet Cream Lipstick over the top and blot lightly. If you would like extra shine, you can layer one of our complementary lip glosses over the lipstick.

The formula is ultra-creamy, smooth, and hydrating, so it feels comfortable and does not dry out your lips the way a matte or stain-type lipstick can. It was developed specifically with mature lips in mind, gliding on without settling harshly into lines. For extra smoothness you can prep with a lip balm underneath before applying color.

The Shiny Velvet Cream Lipstick is $22 each. It does go on sale during promotions (for example, sitewide sales), and any active discount is applied automatically at checkout. From time to time Nikol also offers lipstick or lipstick-and-gloss bundles, so it is worth watching for those launches.
