I've raved about Revlon lip products on my blog for yonks! I really do think they stock the best range of lip products on the high street at an amazing price so they are always my first port of call. The matte lip balms are my fave but I also have a strong love for the Revlon Ultra HD Matte lip shades.
Matte formula? Me? Of course I'm a fan!
There are two formulas available, metallic matte and matte. I have tried the metallic ones in the past and although I like them, I like a really matte finish more so I've added some more of those to the ol' lip drawer.
Matte finishes are my fave as you know so I know a good formula when I try one and Revlon have got theirs down perfectly. I find the best way to apply any matte formula is a quick lip scrub followed by a couple of applications of your chosen shade, lips are then left with a gorgeous colour with no gathering or clinging.
Application is simple as using the cushioned doe foot applicator means you're just left with a beautifully, smooth lip shade thanks to the wax free, moisturising formula. Wear time is six hours although I do find the shade wears in the middle of my lips much quicker after eating and drinking. I'm not too fussed on having to re-apply though, especially as it takes seconds with these.
(Embrace, Addiction & Passion)
My three recent shades are Embrace, a nude pink, Addiction which is a dark pink and Passion a sultry warm red. The Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lip Colours retail at £8.99 and are totally worth the cost. The best bit is if you keep an eye out in Boots, you can usually pick these up in their 3 for 2 offer!
Out of the three shades Embrace has been a fave which surprised me as I'm usually all over the darker bright shades. It's just become my everyday shade as it's quick to just whip out and apply.
If you're looking for a fab matte lip product for the fraction of the price of most, Revlon are a great starting point. The hardest part is just choosing which shade to go for!
