The Urban Decay Revolution Lipsticks are available for purchase at Sephora and ULTA stores as well as online on the Sephora, ULTA and Urban Decay websites.
The Urban Decay Revolution Lipsticks come in a gunmetal shiny tube with dark purple interior. The caps of the tubes are embossed with the Urban Decay brand name.
The label on the bottom of each tube indicates the shade name for reference. The labels are not color coded so you will need to memorize the name and coordinating color or open the tube to see the actual lipstick shade. All other details are on the actual product packaging.
The tubes are sleek and durable and hold very secure so there is little risk of the caps coming loose and damaging the lipsticks. Beware of fingerprints and scuffs on these beautiful metallic tubes though - all in the name of pretty packaging. There are also grooves in the tubes which are meant to be ergonomic...these make for a better grip but it isn't all that noticeable.
(P.S. Thank G_d they got rid of that impractical old 'dagger' style packaging)

There are 22 colors available in wearable neutral shades and pops of bright color.
TEXTURE & FINISH
The Urban Decay Revolution Lipsticks are
very creamy and glide on smoothly. There are no matte or shimmery finishes in
this line-up - just creamy semi-glossy shades.
COLORS/SHADES
The Urban Decay Revolution Lipsticks come in 22 shades (2 are exclusive to UrbanDecay.com) including many pinks - intense and light shades - neutrals, reds, oranges and deeper berry shades.
The available shades will appeal to most of the market with the variety in subtle neutrals colors and bold reds and berries and even a beautiful orange. However, I feel like they missed the market with coral and purple shades which have become quite popular with us makeup lovers. After all Urban Decay is a TRENDY brand right??!!
But the majority wins out in this case...maybe they will add more fun shades next season!

PIGMENTATION
The Urban Decay Revolution Lipsticks vary in pigmentation from shade to shade. For the most part they have great color payoff in one swipe and can be built up to full intensity with just a couple of swipes. Depending on the pigmentation of your lips you may need a couple of layers with the lighter shades while the deeper/bolder shades give great coverage in one swipe.
The deeper/bolder shades will also leave a slight to intense stain behind once you remove the lipstick - Anarchy and F-Bomb left a pretty strong stain behind.
APPLICATION & WEAR
The Urban Decay Revolution Lipsticks are very nice to apply. They are creamy without being too soft (which can be a major issue!). They glide onto the lips without clinging to dry spots...I still recommend lip balm and exfoliation no matter what though.
They feel very lightweight and creamy on the lips without being too slippery or glossy which is a great thing. I didn't experience any bleeding of the color which usually happens with 'liquid-y' or 'thin' formulas.
The wear is somewhere between 5-9 hours depending on the shade and level of oral activity *hee hee*. They are creamy which shortens wear but not significantly - not to where it's like a gloss.
They are very comfortable to wear and do not dry out my lips although I wouldn't say they are hydrating by themselves. I still feel the need to use a balm after removing them so the nourishing part was a miss on me (personally of course).
I also didn't notice any plumping, by tingle or appearance, but then again my lips are full naturally.

The Urban Decay Revolution Lipsticks are great addition to the lipstick market! I think they are creamy and very pigmented and a dream to wear. However, the price/size leaves me weary but alas what to do?! I think they are worth a look....you may even find your everyday shade.

Have you tried these yet? Interested?
Urban Decay ANARCHY Lipstick - Vivid bright fuchsia pink. There are many like this on the market. It leans more blue pink.
Urban Decay BANG Lipstick - Bright, bold, in your face orange. This is not for the faint of heart at all. It's a gorgeous yellow-toned (warm) orange.
Urban Decay F-BOMB Lipstick - Medium-deep neutral red. Would be suitable on a variety of skintones - especially deeper skin.
Urban PROTEST Lipstick - Subtle pinky nude shade. Great nude for medium-dark skintones..
Urban Decay SHAME Lipstick - Deep vampy wine red. This color is more dark rich red than a berry shade. Perfect for darker skin.
The deeper shades seem to make you glow! you look good in all of them but F bomb and shame look especially good on you in my opinion. Thanks for the review!
