Review: Makeup Revolution Iconic Pro Lipsticks...!!!
15:34:00Hey beauties,
Hope you all are doing great. Today am sharing the much awaited review on Makeup Revolution Iconic Pro Lipsticks in 8 gorgeous shades. I personally love this brand and so love the Wow sticks and eye palettes by Makeup Revolution. I have been trying and wearing these new Iconic Pro Lipsticks quite a lot this month and I think now is the perfect time to share my thoughts on these. So let's get to the review and see what I have to say about these Iconic Pro Lipsticks by Makeup Revolution.

These lipsticks are available in 20 gorgeous shades on Makeup Revolution website. In Pakistan, these are available in 8 lovely shades that are perfect for desi skin tones. These lipsticks are highly pigmented and the coverage these provide is quite buildable. The finish, performance and staying power of these lipsticks vary from shade to shade. Out of the 8 gorgeous shades that I got, three are matte. Whereas, the rest of the shades have cream to satin finish. All the shades apply smoothly on lips without tugging. The matte shades have better staying power but have slight tendency to accentuate fine lines or lip cracks. The creamy/satin shades are very moisturizing and have pretty great staying power too but they tend to transfer easily. Now I will be precisely discussing each shade individually.
Looking Ahead:
Looking Ahead is one of my favorite shades from the bunch. It is a gorgeous pinkish brown shade. I am so loving these kind of shades currently. If you are a fan of Kylie Jenner lips, you should definitely get this shade. Its a perfect everyday shade. It feels so sooo moisturizing, glides smoothly on the lips and has creamy finish. The staying power of this shade is around 4-5 hours (with minimal eating and drinking).

This is my second favorite shade is from the range. Its such a pretty true red shade. The shade will compliment all skin tones. It has matte finish but doesn't feel drying. However, it has slight tendency to accentuate fine lines or lip cracks by the end of the day. Its lasting power is pretty amazing and it lasts on my lips for about 5-6 hours and even lasts me through meal.
 |
| Makeup Revolution Iconic Pro Lipstick in shade "Duel Matte" |
This is perhaps my least favorite shade of all because of its formulation. The color is gorgeous. Its a lovely nude shade and is perfect for those who love nude lips. Its finish is rather semi-matte, not completely matte. However, it feels a little drying unlike all other shades and tends to settle in and accentuate fine lines. The staying power of this lipstick is pretty average too. It lasts on my lips for about 3 hours which is not so great. The color however is gorgeous, perfect for nude lip lovers.

This is such a gorgeous barbie pink shade. The finish of this shade is satin like. It feels so moisturizing and makes my lips look fuller. I love this shade. However, it has slight tendency to bleed and transfer but I don't find it bothersome. The staying power of this one is quite decent too and it lasts on me for about 4-5 hours and leaves behind a nice pink stain after fading off.

Another stunning shade from the collection. No Perfection Yet is a beautiful purple shade. The shade somehow reminds me of MAC Rebel. I don't own MAC Rebel myself to compare the shade but as per online swatches this looks close enough. This shade again feels very hydrating and makes my lips look fuller. Its finish is creamy matte. The staying power of this one is about 5-6 hours which is pretty great.

Not in love is a beautiful coral shade. It has cream finish with slight sheen. Unlike other corals, this is not very shocking and is very wearable. I love this shade a lot. Its perfect for summers. The staying power of this shade is pretty great too and it lasts on my lips for about 5 hours or more easily. It then leaves behind a subtle stain that lasts till the end of the day.
 |
| Makeup Revolution Iconic Pro Lipstick in shade "Not in Love" |
Another lovely nude shade from the range. This is the perfect pinkish nude shade. It feels very hydrating. However, this particular shade is less pigmented and has average staying power. It lasts on my lips for about 2-3 hours at max.
 |
| Makeup Revolution Iconic Pro Lipstick in shade "Absolutely Flawless" |
This is my most favorite shade from the collection. It is such a beautiful deep red shade with blue undertones. The shade is said to be a dupe for MAC Russian Red. It has matte finish but doesn't feel drying. However, it has slight tendency to settle in or accentuate fine lines or lip cracks by the end of the day. Nonetheless, I love this shade and love its finish. It makes my teeth look whiter. The staying power of this shade is pretty impressive too and it lasts on my lips for 5-6 hours or sometimes more.

DeleteSuperb Huda! Too good. Such a detailed review.

ReplyDeleteGreat review again!
-Fizzah

DeleteI love my No perfection yet especially when i use it with MUR lip liner in Rebel. great combo. I amplanning to get Looking Ahead, Please tell me if it has mauve hints like CP Lumiere. Some great swatches and excellent details as always. One day I was just sliding out the bullet and I felt like the plastic and golden casing were separating. Hasn't happened since but I almost dropped it!
ReplyDeleteNo perfection yet is such a pretty shade. I am so in loving it. The problem you faced with the bullet is surprising. I never faced it anyone. Thanks for sharing, will be careful with my bullets now :)
Deletei hate lipsticks which transfers they are such a pain .. i love "Not in Love" shade
ReplyDeleteYes I agree, but I think all moisturizing lipsticks tend to transfer somehow. Love not in love <3
DeleteVery nice review and swatches though I am a little skeptical about MUR lipsticks.
ReplyDeleteI dare again
Thank you hun. You should try these out. For the price, these are pretty nice :)
DeleteGreat lip swatches and review !! :D
