Urban Decay Vice Hydrating Lipstick Swatches (x35)

Urban Decay Vice Hydrating LipstickUrban Decay Vice Hydrating Lipstick ($19.00 for 0.11 oz.) is a new, reformulation of Vice Lipstick. The new formula covers three finishes (high shine, cream, and matte) with a total of 35 shades. There are some returning favorites, which seemed fairly similar in color to the last iterations, but most are new shades. Most of the mattes felt like the prior Comfort Mattes with a few being closer to a typical matte (or Mega Matte from the last formula). The Creams seemed comparable to the prior Cream finish, and the High Shine finish is most comparable to the Sheer finish from before (though I’d say the High Shine shades are glossier and more gel-like).

It’ll take me some time to work through and review the shades over the next few weeks, but my initial impressions are that these felt very similar to the Vice Lipstick range that debuted a few years ago.
