Charlotte Tilbury Lunar New Year Matte Revolution Lipsticks Reviews & Swatches (2022)

Only Muse

Charlotte Tilbury Only Muse Matte Revolution Lipstick ($37.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a muted, medium-dark orange with moderate, warm undertones and a satin finish. It seemed to have a little more shine than some of the other shades released in this formula, though it only took an hour or so for most of it to wear down.

It had opaque color payoff, instead of the buildable coverage marketed, paired with a lightly velvety texture that was thin, lightweight, and not clingy. This shade wore well for four hours but settled a bit into my lip lines over time, while the formula felt neither drying nor hydrating over time.

The formula is supposed to have "long-lasting color" that's "buildable" with "glowing pigments" that give the "illusion of wider, fuller lips." Some shades are buildable while others are fairly pigmented in one stroke. The consistency was more velvety, lightweight, and thin without being clingy or drying over time. I found that some shades were flattering on, as they didn't emphasize lip texture or get into my lip lines, while other shades gravitated into my lip lines. They wore between three and five hours and were typically non-drying. There was no discernible scent or taste.

K-Romance

The consistency was smooth, velvety, and lightweight with a thinner feel that never became clingy. It had opaque pigmentation, though it was supposed to be buildable, that stayed on nicely for five hours, left a faint stain behind, and felt non-drying.

Walk of a Star

Charlotte Tilbury Walk of a Star Matte Revolution Lipstick ($37.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a deep coral-red with subtle, warm undertones and a mostly matte finish. It had nearly opaque color coverage (rather than buildable), which applied evenly but wasn’t quite as adhering to the inner area of my lip (by a small margin). The texture was lightweight, thin, and had more of a velvety glide than traditional creaminess. It wore well for four and a half hours and was non-drying.
