Makeup Revolution #Liphug Lipsticks

Ahh, Makeup Revolution. You had me at hello with these latest lip smackers. Dubbed, the #Liphug, (Naww) they've been specially formulated and designed to give you super intense and super huggable lips. Now, if you can explain to me how one goes about hugging someones lips, there's likely to be a gold star and a Kinder Egg in it for you. 
Jokes aside, these new lipstick offerings from Makeup Revolution are a step-up, price wise from the I-Can't-Believe-They're-Only-£1 Amazing Lipsticks. Priced at £2.50, you get a choice of twenty brand new shades as well as a prettier package and some interesting shade names to boot. 
So what have we got then?

To Get Lucky

Who We Are!

I Am Ready!

Still Missing My Baby

From top to bottom - To Get Lucky, Who We Are!, I Am Ready!, Still Missing My Baby

I ended up opting for two very similar red shades and two brownish/reds - Still Missing My Baby is very much the winter berry/mulled wine shade that I was hoping to add to my Winter lippie wardrobe... if I owned such a thing. A word on the formula, the Liphugs are so up my street, they're practically in my front door. Creamy, moisturising and oh so hydrating, they feel great to wear and the pigmentation is pretty good too; however it does takes a couple of swipes to get an intense wash of colour.
In terms of wear, I'm surprised to be writing that you can get a good couple of hours out of these without the need to reapply. The shade, To Get Lucky is particularly forgiving and I had that on for over three hours the other day before it started to give up on me. It's safe to say I'm impressed. You can see me wearing it in this post right here. 
I really do rate these lipsticks and I think Makeup Revolution did a cracking job with the shade range and aesthetics, my only bugbear is the smell. I'm a nit picker at the best of times and for me, these lipsticks felt slightly cheapened by the almost plasticky scent that they had to them. It draws me back to my pre-teens and my pink, glittery 'First Makeup Set' that I'm 90% sure was a freebie from my Sugar magazine. It wouldn't stop me repurchasing, I mean hello... have you seen the price? Although I do wish MUR had given these a more nostril-friendly scent. 

On the whole, these latest lip offerings from Makeup Revolution are completely worth their budget-friendly price tag and would no doubt make great little stocking fillers for lipstick loving friends and family. There really is a shade to suit everyone. 
What are your thoughts on the new #Liphugs from Makeup Revolution? Are there any shades in particular that you're rating or what would you like to see next from the budget beauty brand?
