Makeup revolution is one of my favourite brands, they bring out so many fantastic and affordable products - some of which are great dupes for higher end products. I was very kindly sent eight of the new *Makeup Revolution Lip Liners (£1 each) and I have to say, for the price, I'm so impressed on the whole. The lip liners are currently on offer, so if you buy all 8 you get 2 free so you only pay £6.
Rebel: Vivid purple fuchsia (the shade is darker in 'real life')
Baby Pink: Pastel Baby Pink with creamy white undertones
Cherry Red: Hot pink with bright red undertones
The One: Deep beige with tan undertones (the one I forgot to photograph above!)
Bold Pink: Bright cool toned pink (mix between Cherry Red and Baby Pink)
Vamp: Blackcurrent shade
Soft Pink: Bright soft pink (mix between Bold Pink and Baby Pink)
Nearly Naked: Off white with baby pink undertones (similar to Baby Pink but lighter and less pink)
I have to be honest and say that the lighter shades, including Baby Pink and Nearly Naked, are very drying and they emphasise every hint of dryness on the lips. I will be keeping them for halloween though as I think they will be great for so many halloween looks!
The shades I am very impressed with are Cherry Red, Rebel, Bold Pink and Baby Pink as they are so smooth, creamy, soft and very pigmented. They also don't emphasise dryness too much on me (and my lips are SO dry); the shades feel comfortable on the lips and they could easily be layered together or with other products.
Overall, I'm so impressed with how creamy, smooth and pigmented most of the shades are; the price is amazing! All of the shades are fairly matte with no shimmer. They all have an inbuilt sharpener on the lid which for travelling would be pretty handy but after use it does make the product looks dirty/messy. Overall rating: ★★★★☆, 4/5.
Have you tried any of these lip liners? What do you think of the shades? What are your favourite products from Makeup Revolution?
Oooe these look great!

I love the majority of their products x
DeleteFor £1 these definitely seem like they are worth picking up! I have tried a few of Makeup Revolutions eyeshadow palettes but never their lip products but some of these shades sound lovely (:

You definitely can't go wrong for the price x
DeleteJust ordered these and I am super excited to try them :) I bought them in the bundle deal because i wanted to try all of them - hopefully the lighter colours will be okay, but as I have dry lips, think I may have the same problem as you :) x
ReplyDeleteBrenda BusyBee
I think if you prep with a lip scrub and balm then they should work better x
DeleteI have to agree with what you're saying on the lighter shades. The coverage seems a bit patchy too. The brighter, more statement shades look amazing. I really like how they've turned out and how you can use them for lipsticks too x
