Sneak Peek: Urban Decay Vice Lipsticks Photos & Swatches -- The Browns
Urban Decay Vice Lipstick
Here are several of the more brown-based shades–these are ones darker than beige/peach (those will be in a separate post) from the new Urban Decay Vice Lipstick ($17.00 for 0.11 oz.) range.
Vice Lipstick is a new formula that will debut on June 5th (and it replaces all the Revolution formulas). It will have 120 shades total, with 20 of those shades exclusively available at Sephora (subsequently, Sephora will not have 20 shades–each retailer will have 100 shades in total). There are six finishes, and some you’ll recognize; Cream = the original Revolution formula, Comfort Matte = the Matte Revolution formula, and Sheer/Sheer Shimmer = the Sheer Revolution formula.
Oh wow! Conspiracy reminds me of Tom Ford’s Derek, just a smidgen darker.
And at half the price and, what’s more important – it will be available locally.
It will be mine. Oh, yes. It will be mine.

I’m glad to see I wasn’t the only one who saw it: Derek=Conspiracy!
Ooooh this isn’t good, why am I seeing this… I see some serious wish list material here!
OMG, brown reds are my fave, the most flattering on me! Love the last 9 , esp. the ones w/gold shimmer, and pretty sure I don’t have dupes for some of these
Hitch Hike is pretty!
That was the one that caught my eye, too!
Hitch Hike caught my eye too. It reminds me of NARS Jane but I think this shade is brighter.
Hex is also Calling me.
I’m really feeling Uptight, but maybe a little Carnal, too! Sorry, but it was there. ?
Thanks for doing this! I count 46 down— 64 to go?YIKES! Does that just leave reds and oranges?
Surprisingly so far, I have seen none I have to have- which surprised me.
Some very pretty browns there! I am glad there’s plenty of pinky and reddy browns as I find these easiest to wear out of that colour range. I actually like them all here.
Stark Naked is not in the collection? Or is Uptight the same as Stark Naked?
As noted above, this post is only for brown – not peaches or beiges!
ohhh, i see. I always categorize it as like light brown. Thanks for replying!
Studded is interesting. I might have to pick that one up 🙂
Wow, so many of those swatch terribly but look amazing on your lips!
That’s what I thought about Liquid!
I have 1993 in orig formula. Not my fav range in lipsticks although I have a great nostalgic twist for 90’s brown lips.
I like Amulet and Studded Vice. The swatches do not look particularly nice, but both look really pretty on your lips.
Wow, and I thought Backdoor was bad eyeshadow name! Now they’ve extended it into lipstick… Ew.
I saw that and thought, oh no they didn’t…and then I saw the actual lipstick, and it’s so pretty! But I just don’t think I can. What if someone asked you what you were wearing? Ha.
Studded will look soooo good with mac’s steel kiss lipglass!!
Oh, wow. I would wear moat of these. CONSPIRACY! Wowza.
I wish brands would make more true brown lipsticks. 🙁 I’ve seen Zendaya rocks like a creamy golden brown that is to die for!
To what do you attribute the poor arm swatches vs. the decent lip look? What does this mean about a formula…if anything? Think I’m in on some of these. Along with Katherine, brown reds are my faves. Restraint must be used here.
Skin is probably more textured and drier on my arm than the lips, possibly the warmth of lips vs. arm makes the formula smooth out on. I find a lot of sheerer/MAC Lustre-esque formulas to swatch better on lips than on arms!
I think all of these will be to brown for me. Hex might work.
Hello 90’s!!! Yep, I used to dig these shades back in the day, and I still do!
Conspiracy, Amulet, Backdoor, Hitch Hike and Carnal are my immediate favorites out of this set. Conspiracy reminds me of TFL&B Derek a lot;
I was expecting a lot more from Liquid, but it actually looks lovely on your lips (compared the the arm swatch)! I am loving all of the shimmery/metallic shades, Conspiracy is very unique looking. Studded looks close enough to Viva Glam RiRi II that I think I can skip it.
I agree with you, Studded looks too close to my tube of VG Rihanna II for me to bother with it.
These seem so good! Can’t wait to try them!
Conspiracy is my favorite of this bunch, but they’re all lovely.
I’m really liking Carnal and Hitch Hiking. Some of the sheers swatch awfully patchy, but at least they look fine on the lips?
I like brown lipsticks but unfortunately I cannot wear Most of them.
So only hitch hike maybe a shade for me.
Wishlist + one shade
Broken and Liquid look like dollar store lipsticks.
I think it’s because they’re sheer. Hard to swatch those without some of the pigment catching and bunching on the fine hairs of your skin.
Liquid, Amulet, and Conspiracy look so awesome!
So are the lipsticks going to be available in store sephora on June 5th?
Wow! I haven’t been into the brown lipstick revival, but these are so pretty!
Most of these are warmer than I like, but some of the shimmery shades look tempting.
These look like they’ll work well for WOC. Yay. Plus Studded is like Viva Glam Rihanna 2 that I love on top of a dark brown lip liner.
And there I was, thinking, browns, good, I don’t like brownish lipsticks, money safe from these, at leastt. I was so wrong! I like quite a few of them, the one I think I’ll buy, if it passes Christines test is Hitch Hike.
Some of the swatches looks uneven, but they look a lot better on the lips. I’ve noticed that in earlier sneek peeks from this release. It will be so interesting to read the reviews.
Oh, I also like Studded.
Conspiracy and Nighthawk are lovely colours – I am a bit of a fiend for brown lipsticks. But some of the swatches look a little patchy….hmmm.
Love these!
Liquid is disappointingly sheer, but Hex and Nighthawk look promising (if a bit similar).
Conspiracy, Amulet, and Vice are gorgeous. Whoever thought it would be funny to name a brown lipstick “Backdoor” needs to be slapped, though.
Ohhh yes. Conspiracy and Studded are on my must have list. I look best in browns and I am so happy for the 90’s revival.
Liquid and Conspiracy look interesting!
I hope Liquid will be a sheer, moisturising, wine-hued lipstick—that’d be phenomenal!
I think it’s weird that they’re doing 120 shades and still not bring back some of the originals. I had frostbite as a teen and I would love to get my hands on another Roach.
Off hand, Carnal and Studded are my only dislikes. Will have to check others with my skin tone before purchase. UD has really outdone itself with variety.
I’m not into brown lipstick anymore. I’ve already lived through the ’90s. But, I’m intrigued by Studded and Conspiracy.
Backdoor, Liquid and,Amulet are really pretty. I love the Sheer Revolution formula so Liquid is the one I will be picking up first.
I love Uptight and Carnal, and 1993! But I imagine this 1993 is the same shade as UD just released last year, which was, sadly, a little too dark on me. I so wanted to love it but it didn’t love me back 🙁
Nighthawk looks like something I’d want to try. I look best in brown-reds, and right now there’s not a big assortment of them out there.
