Revlon Ultra HD Lipcolor

Hey there dolls! Today I'm going to be talking about these new Revlon lipsticks I picked up last week! I went into a Rite Aid for the first time in years (cue the gasps) and was amazed to see that the one closet to me was remodeled with the makeup section in the front! So good, yet so bad. I was immediately drawn to all the new products. The first things I spotted were the Revlon Autumn line (I picked up a matte balm in the shade Passionate) and then off to the side I saw these beauties.

There's a total of 6 shades (correct me if I miss counted) and all the colors are pretty beautiful even if I found the pinks to be too blue-based for me. The colors I picked out were 625 HD Love and 610 Addiction, a bright red and berry/wine color. Now as for what I thought about them, I loved them. I have to say though the name is a bit deceiving because these are by no means matte upon first application, but for me that's perfect because I hate fully matte lipsticks-they're so drying. These went on with a sheen and after drinking tea, filming a video and taking a few selfies they melted into a semi-matte finish that stained my lips. These lasted remarkably well (around 6-8 hours) and even then I was still left with a stain! Also, I love the doe foot applicator they have, it's a soft and velvety applicator with a divot that lets it glide perfectly across you lips. The only "bad" thing per se is that there's a smell to these. While I liked it, I expect that this will turn many off.
Now we're onto my favorite part about reviewing things, the packaging. I was reading some comments on a thread the other day and one girl said they reminded her on highlighters and another said they were similar to the Marc Jacobs. Personally the packaging wasn't something to write home about-I wasn't thrilled but overall I think its nice for the price point.

Have you spotted these lipsticks? Do you think you'll buy them?
