Urban Decay x Gwen Stefani Ex-Girlfriend, Phone Call, Plaid Lipsticks

Urban Decay x Gwen Stefani Lipstick

Urban Decay x Gwen Stefani Ex-Girlfriend Lipstick ($18.00 for 0.11 oz.) is described as a “sheer nude-rose with pink shimmer.” It’s a light-medium, rosy peach with warm undertones and fine gold pearl. It had semi-sheer color payoff with a luminous sheen. It was comfortable to wear and lasted for three hours on me. The formula felt a little thinner and had more slip compared to the Sheer Revolution formula to me (but not so much that it feels like a different formula necessarily). MAC Soft Talkin' (LE, $20.00) is warmer (95% similar). MAC Touche (LE, $20.00) is lighter (90% similar). Chanel Mademoiselle (434) (P, $36.00) is more shimmery, darker, more pigmented (90% similar). Tom Ford Beauty Forbidden Pink (22) (P, $50.00) is more pigmented, cooler (85% similar). MAC I'm In (LE, $20.00) is cooler (90% similar). Chanel Jersey Rose (DC, $34.00) is cooler (85% similar).

Urban Decay x Gwen Stefani Phone Call Lipstick ($18.00 for 0.11 oz.) is described as a “sheer bright pink.” It’s a bright, medium fuchsia pink with subtle, cool undertones and a luminous sheen. It had semi-opaque color payoff with a creamy, emollient consistency that glided across the lips with ease. It wore well for four and a half hours on me and was moisturizing to wear. Bite Beauty Bellini (LE, $24.00) is less glossy (95% similar). MAC Red Balloon (LE, $17.00) is lighter, brighter (90% similar). Estee Lauder Passionate (P, $30.00) is warmer (90% similar).

Urban Decay x Gwen Stefani Plaid Lipstick ($18.00 for 0.11 oz.) is described as a “sheer deep berry.” It’s a semi-opaque, berry-red with cool, fuchsia undertones and a natural finish. The texture was lightweight, lightly creamy, and sat well on the lips without sliding around. The color was comfortable to wear and lasted well for five and a half hours. It left behind a slight stain and was hydrating as well. Guerlain Madame Batifole (860) (LE, $55.00) is more shimmery (90% similar). Bite Beauty Crimson (LE, $28.00) is lighter, cooler (90% similar).

I have emailed Urban Decay to ask if these are part of the Revolution formula or not, and when I tried to compare ingredient lists, they seemed very similar, and applied, they also seemed similar, perhaps a little thinner and not as glossy, but it could just be a shade-to-shade variation. The packaging seems like a thinner, cheaper-grade plastic to me and less luxe compared to the Revolution packaging. These contain more than the Revolution lipsticks, though, and are $4 less. The Revolution lipsticks are $244.44/oz., while these are $163.64/oz.
