{Revlon Matte Lip Colour}
Whether Valentine’s 2016 has you looking for love, lust, or #itscomplicated, a new matte lip colour is another way to get you excited about the possibilities for the year.
Too often we forget our makeup is an extension of our wardrobe. Revlon‘ new Ultra HD Matte Lip Colour provides 8 shades to get you started.
My new fav lippie is HD seduction. I found this matte nude shade has just enough pigmentation to add colour to my face, without looking excessive for a conservative work environment or simply running errands. It also works perfectly for a more casual date night out.
On days when I wore something classic such as navy stripes or a monochromatic sweater, I turned to the shade HD Passion to add some visual interest. This shade is a mix of a very deep pink mixed with a medium red. As someone who shied away from colour on my lips, I found this particular lippie addictive, using it whenever I felt my monochromatic outfit needed a quick pick me up. I got so many compliments while wearing this shade, ranging from ‘Love that shade!’ to ‘Loving the new look!’ and ‘You should wear colour on your lips more often!’ I loved that even after lunch, the pigmentation of the lippie is so strong, no reapplication is needed. A simple blot of the lips after one application using the plush applicator and your lips are ready for the day. This colour will definitely boost your confidence for that special night out!
I save HD Temptation for days when I wear something with some edge. The color of this lippie is a vivid pink, helping to add that last accessory to an already trendy ootd. This shade is basically the equivalent of a stiletto – creating a memorable image with just enough class and sass. Your date will be rendered temporarily speechless!
I’m loving all the new choices Revlon has for the new year – getting an outfit ready hasn’t been this much fun in a while – along with choosing something to wear – now I get to play with my lip colour to add to my style. A lipcolour that helps define my style? I would say that’s a great way to start attracting some attention for this Valentine’s Day 😉
I love matte everything! These are great shade choices
I have the Flirtation shade and it’s great! I love the formula of these and would like to get more, but there aren’t a ton of other colors in the collection that I’m excited to get. I hope they come out with more shades of these soon!
These are beautiful, where can I find them!
I love these, I have the shade….Devotion? Its like a rosey pink. I love the shade and wear. I want to try more, I wish there was a bigger color selection.
Oh gosh, here’s another lip product I NEEEDDDD. I love Temptation, it looks like something I’d love. Thanks for sharing. xo
Hi Brigette – yes! The shade of Temptation is just the right combination of red and pink. What’s not to love about that? Thanks for stopping by!
These are without a doubt the best matte lipsticks from the drugstore.
Hi Yami!
The pigmentation of these lipsticks definitely reminded me of higher end lipsticks I’ve come across. So glad you love them too!
I love the pink and red shade…shame that they are matte formulas! 🙁

Hi Ursula – you could always try adding a gloss on top of you are absolutely in love with the shades. It’s worth a try!
I am a huge fan of these matte lip colours! I just wish they dried more, I find they never really set and rub off super easily!
Hi Taylor – I had the opposite problem! They lasted so long I still had lipstick on when I changed into my pjs after coming home from work. Did you try blotting and adding another application of lipstick on top?
Hope this helps! Let us know!
Passion is so pretty, I must have it!

Hi Molly and Stacie – agreed. It’s just the right shade of flirty pink. Enjoy!
I am liking the matte lip and these colours are no exception. Seduction is such a pretty every day colour and would go with any makeup look or outfit. It’s nice to see more drugstore matte lippie options!
Yes so true – drugstore brands are really stepping it up!
Great color picks! Love the color swatches. I like this new Revlon packaging. I got their new mascara and are working on a review. The packaging looks very travel friendly.
Let us know what you think of the mascaras – Donna did a post on them recently too!
Hi Sharon! These colours each had their own special place in a wardrobe. Would love to hear about which mascara will be your favorite of the new Revlon collection.
I wonder how these compare to the new L’Oreal matte glosses or whatever they’re called. I’ll have to check them out! 🙂
Hi Sonya – I haven’t tried the lipsticks you mentioned, but for this price point the colour pigmentation and staying power were enough for me to highly recommend the Revlon HD lipstick. Happy lipstick wearing!
How do these feel on your lips? Are they drying? I adore the packaging and the shades you picked are gorgeous, but I haven’t taken the plunge yet coz my lips are so dry already. But I just love how these look
Hi Allison – considering Winter is already a time when most people’s lips are dry without some type of moisturizer – I would recommend a lip gloss prior to application. I would apply the lip balm and let it absorb (to avoid the colour becoming glossy) before applying the Revlon HD matte lipstick.
