I saw their release on a big banner while travelling in auto and luckily my stop had a mall just nearby. I jumped out of auto like a lover waiting for reunion and quickly bought one.
Product description:
Revlon’s Ultra HD Lipstick has a revolutionary, high definition color without a heavy feel. Wax-free technology delivers true color clarity.
My experience with it:
Going by the claims made by the brand, I was definitely expecting a lot from this lipcolor. But this lipstick turned out as just a pigmented version of L’oreal shine caresse lipsticks (Review HERE).
The lipstick is housed in a silver packaging with a transparent cap and the shade name mentioned at the bottom of it. But a major problem as you can see in the picture is that the bullet does not roll down all the way in the body. The cap does opens easily but I have to be careful every time I open it lest I damage the bullet’s head! So I have to take care of my clumsiness while opening it. Needless to say, it’s quite a big flaw!
The texture is definitely light, creamy, moisturizing and glides on lips smoothly with packing full coverage on my lips. I was really surprised by the high pigmentation given the fact that the shade is soft. I guess it’s really the gel like texture which reveals a good pack of color. I have even layered it just to check how it goes and it does not turns patchy. However it does emphasize lip lines with passage of time. Also, if you have parched lips, it won’t do justice as it isn’t high on hydration quotient. Regarding the staying power, the creaminess definitely isn’t friendly with your drinks or snacks. But without any eating, it stays on for around 1.5-2 hours after which I need a touch up.
“830,HD Rose” is lovely subtle pink shade which is devoid of any shimmers and perfect for wearing to office or when running to do errands. It has a subtle sheen to it. But after some time, the sheen subsides and the finish becomes a soft semi-matte. This is one shade which you can wear just anytime without having to worry much about how it will look with your outfit.
I’m definitely not head over heels with the formula of this lipstick. I won’t be repurchasing it.
