The Revolutionary Lippy.

If there was one lipstick in the entire world I was desperate to own it was this one. This is the Urban Decay Revolution Lipstick in the gorgeous classic red, F-Bomb. I was given a sample of this when I made a purchase previously at Selfridges and I was so in love with it I wore it until the sample had run dry. I decided to finally own it and I am so glad I did. I also wanted to pick up the shade Naked but it had sold out! Sob. These retail for £15.50 each and are worth every damn penny.

Firstly, the packaging is gorgeous. The box it comes in already screams luxury with its classic UD purple colour and silver metallic writing. The interior of the box is decorated with pretty green flowers. The packaging of the actual product is equally as gorgeous; it is weighty, metallic and ribbed, with the Urban Decay name and logo embossed on the lid. The classic purple makes an appearance again where the applicator is held. These look beautiful among any lip collection.

Urban Decay boasts that their Revolution Lipsticks are “creamy badass luxury” and I couldn’t agree more. They are incredibly creamy, making application so smooth and easy. It feels luxurious on my lips; it is moisturising due to their Maxi-Lip element which aims to “plump and leave lips cushiony soft” with nourishing oils. The color-pay off is immense – these lipsticks are incredibly pigmented to give intense shine (due to their Pigment Infusion System).

F-Bomb is your all round classic red lippy. It is perfect for throwing into your clutch bag on a night out and looks gorgeous paired with a bold winged liner. You can channel your inner Marilyn with this color; F-Bomb just adds a modern twist with the extra added glossy shine. These Revolution Lipsticks are certainly revolutionary to the lip game.
