Our take on the Laura Mercier Caviar Smoothing Matte #520 Scarlet Velvet

The Laura Mercier Caviar Smoothing Matte is a refillable matte lipstick in a 100% aluminum case. The brand claims up to 16 hours of wear and a velvety matte finish that blurs lip lines without drying or feeling tacky. Shade 520 Scarlet Velvet is a bright medium blue-red. It suits shoppers who want a long-wear red in a refillable metal bullet, and it competes with other refillable matte lines on the strength of its moisturizing formula rather than on shade range.

What reviewers say

  • 4.6 / 5312 ratings

Rated 4.6 out of 5 across 312 ratings. Buyers praise the soft matte texture and the lasting red, and many like the refillable metal case. Some note that a bold matte red needs a liner and touch-ups late in the day.

What people mention
  • TexturePraisedBuyers describe the matte as soft and velvety rather than dry or tacky.
  • Wear timePraisedReviewers report the color holds through a long day, close to the brand's 16-hour claim.
  • PackagingPraisedThe aluminum case feels weighty and solid, and owners like that the core can be swapped.
  • Lip linesMixedSome say the finish blurs lines at first but settles into them after several hours.
  • ApplicationMixedThe bright red is less forgiving; some buyers use a liner to keep the edges clean.

About the Laura Mercier Caviar Smoothing Matte #520 Scarlet Velvet

Laura Mercier Caviar Smoothing Matte Refillable Lipstick in 520 Scarlet Velvet is a matte lipstick in a bright medium blue-red. The texture is soft and velvety. The formula contains conditioning ingredients and is made to smooth the look of lip lines and fill out the lips without a dry or sticky feel.

The color lasts up to 16 hours. The formula resists smudging and transfer, so it does not rub off on cups or face masks. It has a light vanilla scent with a hint of rose that fades quickly.

The case is 100% aluminum. The lipstick is refillable: pull the old bullet out from the base of the case, remove the outer casing from the new bullet, and push the new bullet straight in until it clicks into place. The used case can be recycled.

Questions and answers

Is the Caviar Smoothing Matte refillable?
Yes. The aluminum case holds a removable core, so you replace the lipstick inside instead of the whole bullet. Refill cores are sold separately.
How long does the color last?
Laura Mercier claims up to 16 hours. Reviewers report it holds through a full day, though a bold red may need a touch-up after meals.
Is it drying like other matte lipsticks?
The formula is built to feel velvety and moisturizing rather than tight. Some wearers still notice settling into lip lines late in the day.
What color is 520 Scarlet Velvet?
It is a bright medium blue-red. The blue undertone makes teeth look whiter and suits both warm and cool skin tones.
