Urban Decay biggest lipstick Launch EVER! #LipstickismyVice

As soon as I saw that Urban Decay was about to release a 100 (yes ONE HUNDRED) new lipsticks, the word excitement doesn't quite cover it and with Ruby Rose as the face of the launch, it was always going to be amazing.

The Vice Collection combines everything from new shades to cult favorites you thought you’d never see again and several shades were inspired by some of the other lip products and even Eyeshadows and Eye Pencils.

Encased inside iconic Urban Decay packaging, vice lipsticks come in a modernized luxed-up version of the original lipstick case. The faceted gunmetal casing with gold base screams luxury and the debossed lettering adds that little some extra. In true Urban Decay style, each lipstick also features an embossed UD.

Each lipstick will cost just £15 and with 100 to choose from there is something for everything whether you like your bold brights, Vampy or subtle neutral shades you will find something and they are available in 6 different finishes, 
  • Mega Matte — super intense matte
  • Comfort Matte — their creamiest matte
  • Cream — the original creamy luxury formula
  • Metallized — cream with a high level of pearl pigments
  • Sheer — a punch of color, with a sheer, shiny finish
  • Sheer Shimmer — slightly transparent finish with floating pearl and a smooth texture
I have five lipsticks from the collection to share with you today and all of them feature in Wende's top 10 picks and I can see why!

714 - was originally released with the Gwen Stefani collection and it is such a stunning shade. With a Mega Matte finish, 714 is bold, it is bright and it is described as being a medium-dark red with warm orange undertones, which sadly does nothing for my complexion, but it is a stunning shade.

Firebird - is a cream finish and is described as being a deep fuchsia. It is definitely a pinkish berry shade and it has cool, blue undertones which works well with my skin tone.  It applies like a dream and there is a fuchsia pearl shade which shows through which I really like along with a very natural sheen.

Big Bang - is a metallized finish and is described as being a bright pink sparkle shade. It is a raspberry pink shade with quite subtle, cool undertones and it has a light pink micro-glitter which reflects amazingly in the light. I don't think I have ever owned a lipstick that looks this glittery, but when the lipstick is applied, it isn't uncomfortable, the glitter doesn't drag or scratch the lips at all, it isn't rough and nor does it look as though you have just covered your lips in glitter, it is just the right amount of noticeable.

BackTalk - is a Comfort Matte finish and is described as being a mauve nude, though it does have a slight pinkish tint to it. It is also a lipstick with cool undertones but with a satin finish and it is one of those shades that everyone can wear. It applies much more smoothly than the other four lipsticks and I adore it.

Pandemonium - is a Mega Matte finish and is a dark, almost red toned purple which has a satin finish.  Again it applies to the lips like an absolute dream and it has a very light shimmer to it and again, this is a shade I wasn't expecting to like at all but I absolutely love it. 


Each lipstick shade has amazing colour pay off, literally like nothing else I have seen. Urban Decay use their propriety Pigment Infusion System which gives the formula its super creamy texture. Add to that there is in the infusion of a butte blend to hydrate, soften and enhance which leaves your lips feeling soft and conditioned. Aloe Vera, Jojoba, Avocado and Babassu oils help to nourish and soften your lips and Illipe Buter provides long lasting moisture with added Vitamin C and E give a hit of antioxident.

So not only do you get a fabulous lipstick, but you get one which looks after your lips whilst you are wearing it and I now need the other 95!.  Not sure which of the 100 lipsticks will suit you? Well there is an Urban Decay app which allows you to try on all the lipsticks to see which one works and which one doesn't and it is a whole lot of fun, bit like Tinder for lipstick!


Have you seen a shade you like the look of?
