Ravenous: A bite, a break. Red flows darkly, swelling with each heartbeat. Drops fall, cluster, merge. The blood slowly, silently darkens.
Pigment: Created from the saturated red of carmine and brown earth shades of iron oxide, this is a dramatic dark red brown lipstick shade that captures the color of dried blood.
Forbidden Lipstick: An intensely saturated, rich and luxuriant lipstick carefully crafted to reveal bold, daring color and impart enduring moisture. Forbidden Lipsticks offer beautifully dense pigmentation that is remarkably lightweight on the lips; even the boldest shades feel like a comfortably long-wearing balm.
Finish: Semi-matte
Texture: Crème
Aroma: Naturally floral and herbaceous, with botanical lavender and the honeyed warmth of natural beeswax

This is the best gothic red I have found. Gorgeous and the color naturally whitens teeth. My go too!

This color is absolutely everything. Whether you blot it out to make it sheer or apply it fully, deliciously vampiric!
- JFJessica F.Verified BuyerReviewingForbidden Lipstick: RavenousI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars2 weeks agoSuper flattering color, especially for the fall!
I really love how this looks on me. I usually struggle to find red lip products that don’t look too orange or bright on me (I have very brown/tan skin with olive (?) undertones), but this looks divine. I feel like a baddie. My only gripe is that the product was smaller than I expected.
- CHCait H.Verified BuyerReviewingForbidden Lipstick: RavenousI recommend this productRated 4 out of 5 stars3 weeks agoIncredible color, a little drying
If you have been searching for the perfect dried blood/oxblood shade that isn't too purple but still deep dark red, this is it! My only qualm is that the lipstick is quite dry, which means it needs to be warmed up by swiping it on your hand once or twice before application that isn't patchy. Also, obviously, chapped lips will make the color patchy as well. But once on, the color stays on and feels weightless. Oh, and the scent is strong yet fades almost instantly, which is good if you are not used to lavender scented lip products. I give this a 4.5 stars out of 5.

Just what I wanted. I had been looking for a shade like this and had tried a couple drugstore/mall brands and was disappointed with the low quality. This on the other hand, is super creamy, hydrating and lasted a long time. The color is dark without being overly purple and can be blotted if you want a more subtle look. Excited to try more of their products.

Too emollient and doesnt stick to the center part of my lips which remain bright pink. So i can only use this to touch up other similar colored lipsticks and not wear on its own. Wanted to love this but the formula makes it too hard to wear. Might be better for someone with naturally darker lips
