{ REVIEW } Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolors

Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolors, R155 each

What they say: The new Ultra HD Matte Lipcolors are lightweight, high definition velvety matte colors. The formula has a moisturizing, velvety feel on the lips thanks to the 100% wax-free, gel formula. Available in a variety of high definition shades.

• Creamy mango and whipped vanilla fragrance
• Plush velvety applicator

What I say: I’m pretty sure these are only officially launching mid-March, but I’ve seen them in a few places now, so here are my thoughts.

I’m a massive fan of the Ultra HD Lip Lacquers so was pretty excited when I heard these would be launching in SA.

This is the matte velvet answer to the glossy shiny formula of the Lip Lacquers. The applicator is soft and half-moon shaped, so makes for quick application. The formula however does not make for easy application. It is a bit of a faff to get it on evenly. But thankfully, it’s completely worth it once it’s on.

The colour payoff is wonderful and the durability better than most liquid lipsticks. I get a good 4 hours out of one application, obviously depending on how much eating and drinking is happening.

And they’re serious about the delicious mango and whipped vanilla scent, too!!

If you can’t find these at your nearest Revlon stand, wait a few weeks, they’re on their way!
