Oil Slick
Urban Decay: Oil Slick, Naked, Confession Lipsticks
New for fall from Urban Decay are three new shades of lipstick ($22.00 each). All three have a satiny, slightly glossy finish, and they feel very moisturizing on the lips. They smell sweetly scented — I think I detected a bit of caramel-ness to it, too. Ever since Urban Decay launched their lipstick line, I’ve always been a huge admirer of the creative packaging. I still love it, but it has to be some of the more impractical packaging I’ve come across, just because the label is on the “top” but the daggers are out of the bottom (which don’t stand very nicely). But I really do love it anyway. It’s just so beautiful to look at.
Both Oil Slick and Confession should be worn with a lip liner (clear or otherwise), or you could wear this with Urban Decay’s new Lip Primer Potion ($20.00). I haven’t yet tried it, but I’m planning to see how the two work together later on (and will definitely post some comparisons for you all, too). These two shades tend to settle into natural lip lines and may bleed, too, without the proper base!
- Oil Slick is a sheer, glossy black with small, silver sparkles. It’s extremely wearable–not necessarily on its own–when you layer it with other shades. Try topping it with a really rich red or pink!
- Naked is creamy, pinky shade with a little bit of beige to tone it down and gold shimmer to warm it up. Love it. LOVE.
- Confession is a sheer, glossy burgundy-wine shade. It goes on much brighter/lighter than it looks in the tube–so don’t be afraid of the near blackberry color it appears to be. (Actually, the transformation reminded me a bit of how Clinique’s Black Honey is!)
Naked is my new obsession, though. It’s absolutely stunning on lips. It’s totally my-lips-but-better (MLBB) and yet way more complex and interesting than just MLBB. It’s this glossy pinky color with gold shimmer/sparkle. I feel like I’m wearing a lip color that brightens my whole face without anyone really having a clue I’m wearing any. This shade really grabbed me from the get-go, even if it’s not necessarily a unique or eye-catching (hey, it’s no hot pink!).
Anyone else check these out yet?

WOW! I am so anxious to see your lip swatches, especially NAKED. I have their Naked lipliner and I love the color of it. If Naked is everything you say it is, this may definitely be a lipstick I have to get. I love the idea of a MLBB lippie. These pictures look gorgeous!

I hope you end up liking it!

Saturday, July 18, 2009
Uh oh!!
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
I love these.I’ve never use UD lippies before. I love their 24/7 liners.
I’ll have to try out these colors when I hit the mall tomorrow!
Naked.. ah!
Saturday, July 18, 2009
I love the revamped lipstick line :) Really fun!
Wednesday, July 15, 2009

Saturday, July 18, 2009
I hope you like Oil Slick!

I love urban decay lipsticks… but out of the 6 I own, 4 of them have a TERRIBLE acidic taste when I put them on my lips… almost like I’m swallowing nail polish remover or something! It makes me sick… so I hesitate to buy more. Anyone else have this problem? It seems it’s not really a universal issue.
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
I had this problem with a lipstick of theirs from years ago. It was the old packaging from like 2001 & all the lippies then had a horrible taste & smell IMO at least. However, I have not had the same experience with their newer lipsticks. I most recently got one about 6 months ago & it smells more like Christine described – sweet. Hopefully, the few you have are just a fluke.
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
These ones I have are from the newer line….. so I am confused :(
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
No, you’re not alone. I had the same experience and for that reason, gave away my beloved UD lipsticks. I even emailed them with a question and also suggested maybe using a different flavor, but never heard a thing back. So much for customer service.
Another blogger said these don’t have that taste, but I would have to test them out before buying. It was so gross!
Saturday, July 18, 2009
That is really weird. I have five or six and they’re all sweet!
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
OMG. I’m not the only one. I have four UD lipsticks (the kind in the purple dagger packaging) and two of them seriously taste like rat poison when I put them on. I have no idea why, but it’s horrible. I really like the colors, but sometimes it’s hard to remember not to lick my lips or w/e, and I get a nasty surprise! I just don’t understand what they could be putting in it to make it taste like nail polish remover…

I have one of the newer UD lipsticks too, in the shade Voodoo, and to me, it has the most disgusting bitter liquorice/burnt sugar smell and taste to it, I seriously can’t stand it! I hope the new lippies don’t have the same thing going on, because I’m loving the look of Naked!
Saturday, July 18, 2009
I’ve never had any issues with their lipsticks so I’m at a total loss :(
Saturday, July 18, 2009
They’re all sweetly scented to me!
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
ooo Naked is really pretty! :) I must say I have a similar color from MAC but omg the packaging is soo cute! :)
Saturday, July 18, 2009
What color do you have by MAC that’s similar?
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
Oil Slick i want..i think it would be nice to layer over other colors since it doesn’t seem to be very pigmented
Saturday, July 18, 2009
It definitely would!
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
Are these colors out yet? that oil slick one is so awesome! i wanna get it!
Saturday, July 18, 2009
They’re up on urbandecay.com :)
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
i’m excited to see lip swatches of naked :D
Saturday, July 18, 2009
I’m running behind, but I’ll try to post tomorrow!
Wednesday, July 15, 2009

Saturday, July 18, 2009
Me too :)
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
I have most of there eye n lip liners n love this brand n think theyre packaging is unique x
Saturday, July 18, 2009
I love their liners, too!
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
Naked looks sort of like Cute ster from Hello Kitty, you think?
Saturday, July 18, 2009
A little, but Cute-ster was a little peachier? I guess, on me!
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
I think I just fell in love with Naked <3
Saturday, July 18, 2009
It’s GORG!
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
I’m excited to see the lip swatches! These are so unique and tempting!
Saturday, July 18, 2009
They are :)
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
I have naked on order-can’t wait till it arrives. =)
Saturday, July 18, 2009
Yay!
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
I searched swatches and Naked is similar to Cute Ster and also Sandy B.
I have both of those but I still want a side by side swatch. I love peachy lippies.
Saturday, July 18, 2009
I could see it being similar to Cute-ster! I think it’s prettier, though, haha. Pinker, and more pigmented!
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
I can’t wait until Sephora gets these in stock! I want them!
Saturday, July 18, 2009
I hope it’s soon!
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
wow… confession looks real nice… i’m on a hunt for that perfect drk blackberry color…
Saturday, July 18, 2009
Think this might be it?
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
Naked looks like “A rose romance” Confession looks like “purple rite” ! I didn’t get either so I’m excited = )
Saturday, July 18, 2009
Confession doesn’t look like Purple Rite on me at all, wow! They’re so different on me, that’s weird!
Thursday, July 16, 2009
i am lovin naked! i wonder how the lip swatch would look like. what would be the closest dupe for mac?
Saturday, July 18, 2009
A lot of readers are suggesting Cute-ster or Sandy B :)
Thursday, July 16, 2009
Naked and Confession look nice, but I can’t imagine how Oil slick can be “wearable”. :/
Saturday, July 18, 2009
I’d put a gloss on top to darken a gloss, actually!
Thursday, July 16, 2009
I can’t wait to see the swatch of Naked! :)
Saturday, July 18, 2009
:) Soon!!
Thursday, July 16, 2009
Oh how I wish these didn’t taste so terrible or I’d get Naked. UD sent me a sample l/s with my FF order and it was awful :( I really wish they’d reformulate them.
Saturday, July 18, 2009
I’m so surprised that so many have issues with the taste :(
Thursday, July 16, 2009
on second thought, Confession looks great also, man I think I’ll check this out in person :) thanks!
Saturday, July 18, 2009
Hopefully Sephora’s will carry it soon!
Thursday, July 16, 2009
So, Naked looks a lot like Cute-Ster from HK… what do you think? :)
Saturday, July 18, 2009
I think it’s different, particularly because Cute-ster didn’t do much for me, especially actually on lips!
Friday, July 17, 2009
OMG Christine, I am dying to see you create a look with oil slick and confession!
Saturday, July 18, 2009
I’ll try :P
