Ulta Matte Lip Creams

Ulta Lip Creams are an in-house Ulta brand product.  This line of lip creams is designed for women of all color and age.  The lip creams can be purchased from Ulta stores or from Ulta.com.

About these lip creams-:
- they are velvety smooth
- mousse like cream (almost like the Anastasia Liquid Lipsticks)
- bold intense color and very pigmented with one swipe of the applicator
- dries to a matte finish
- rich and creamy formula
- light and non-drying product
- doe foot applicator
- reds, pinks, purples and nudes to choose from

The product sells for $9.00 a pop and carries .12 fl ozs or 3.7 ml of product.  Matte Lip Cream lovers - exciting news currently (09/13/2015) the lip creams are on sale buy two get two free.

There are 10 colors in the collection and I picked up 3 of the colors to share with you and give my opinion on the line.

Let's get into the product-:
Color featured here is Striking.  It is a beautiful bright pink color.  The color applies very evenly to the lips.  There is no blotchiness or bleeding.  I wore this product both with and without a lip liner.

 

Passionate is a bright, beautiful red.  This color also applies very evenly to the lips with no bleeding or feathering.  This color is perfect for day or night.  This was hands down my favorite color purchased and my favorite color offered in the collection.

Stirring is a deeper mauve/red.  This color also applies very evenly and pigmented.  This color was on the vampy side of the collection and can also work well for day or night wear.

My overall opinion-:

We will start with the con as I did have one on this product - the product once applied takes about 10 to 15 minutes to dry completely kiss proof.  This was no biggie for me as I do not apply and then jump into eating or drinking so I did not mind waiting the dry time and below you will see why.

I am a huge fan of the product and the formula.  The color selection is also amazing and of all three that I purchased, the product applied evenly to the lips.  These lip creams are very pigmented and the applicator picks up enough product for one swipe of precise color application.

The product held up for approximately 6 hours through eating and drinking and did not bleed.  As mentioned in my previous piece on the Milani Amore Matte Lip Creams, I have never been a big fan of the matte lipstick fad, however these Ulta Lip Creams have made a believer out of me.  They wore comfortably on the lips and the color payoff is BEAUTIFUL.

I have to admit that I am a bigger fan of these over the Milani Amore Matte Lip Creams.  Ulta pleasantly surprised me with this product and I am looking forward to purchasing a few more in the line.  I give this product two very big thumbs up :-)
