Makeup Revolution Amazing Lipstick: Crime

I am absolutely loving experimenting with lipsticks at the moment. I recently posted about Mac's Flamingo (Lustre) lipstick, where I declared I would be braver in my bright lipstick purchases...so here I am with this little beaut from Makeup Revolution. I'm not going to lie, this is a brand I wasn't immediately drawn to as I expected the cheap cost to reflect the quality, but from the products I've tried so far, I really can't complain, no really!

I bravely went where many have probably gone before and chose the Crime shade from the Amazing Lipstick range. For me, this is pretty out there colour-wise but I love the purply shades I'm seeing around lately so simply thought 'why not?' for a measly £1.00!

I personally think it's an amazing dupe for Mac's Show Orchid, but over 90% cheaper - literally!

Here are various swatches of the lippy to give you an idea of it. Practically identical to Mac's version right?!

And here it is on my very own smackers. It's really smooth and creamy in texture, which I absolutely love. The thing that surprised me most was how long-lasting it is. It's also super pigmented, so much so that it practically stained my lips, but nothing that a make-up removing and cleansing sesh couldn't sort.

I'm afraid I'm not one of those blessed with luscious, plump lips, but you get the idea! Lots of outtake poses included, just for all-round viewing haha.

Again, as with my comments on the packaging in my baked eyeshadow post, this isn't housed in the most sophisticated of tubes (it's a little plasticky - new word - and rattly in terms of the coloured part of the lid) but it really doesn't make a huge difference to me when I'm this satisfied with the actual product.

What do you think of this Makeup Revolution lipstick? Have you tried any of them?
