Urban Decay - Confession of Love

Think back, back, back to the 90's when Demi Moore startled the world with (among other things) a manicure of Chanel Vamp. At the time, this black/red color seemed so improper, so envelope pushing! The thrill of being naughty, yet nice, inspired gorgeous knockoffs from Essie and Revlon, and then, a second reissue of Vamp from Chanel.

This fall we move back in time to the dark lips of yore, and ladies, Urban Decay has captured Vamp in a tube. It may not be an exact shade match, but the color is such a breathtaking mixture of berry & black you'll get the chills as you recognize a groundbreaking color introduction.

The looks are extreme this fall - nude, goth. This lipstick is so pronounced you can get a little of both looks because you'll want to go light on the eyes. How to describe it? Rich, juicy, shiny, sexy. It makes lips look like fruit waiting to be bitten. It is that tempting.

Confession by Urban Decay sells for $22 and comes in an unusual package with a "love dagger" you can accessorize with metal casing. It is one in a collection including Oil Slick (sheer black w/sparkle). Even if you think you can't carry a dark lip, you absolutely should try this shade. The hue is almost universally flattering.

Seeking perfection? Exfoliate and use a lip primer to get the smoothest base for application. This product is around a 6 out of 10 for opacity, so rough patches show through.

No Urban Decay over here which absolutely sucks, I can't do anything but drool at all the online information! Your review is great, it makes me want to take a plane and get a tube, LOL! Have you seen the look on the UD website? Hotness!
