Forget about lipstick, Urban Decay’s lip mousse is just what we need this summer

Keeley Ryan

It’s been all about the glossy lipped look lately.

But Urban Decay have recently unveiled their newest product – and it’s going to make you want to put down the gloss (and your lippie).

The matte-looking Lo-Fi Lip Mousse (yes, it’s a mousse) is weightless, waterproof and fits easily into your bag.

There are eight shades available, ranging from cashmere-soft baby pink to plum purple and attention-grabbing bright orange – a colour for every occasion.

Our personal favourites are Echo and Amplify.

The budge-proof and buildable formula is absolutely packed with pigment – and lets you control not only where you want the colour, but to keep it there.

Looking for something more low-key? Use your fingertips to pat on the mousse, creating a sheer ‘barely there’ effect.

If you’re heading out and want something more bold, you can use the applicator (hidden just underneath the colour pot) to create definition.

Basically, it’s the versatile and travel-friendly product that our makeup bags need this summer.

The mini-collection has already landed in shops in the UK, USA and Canada – and it looks like Ireland may not be too far behind.

The Urban Decay store on Dublin’s Grafton Street have gotten the Lo-Fi Lip Mousses in stock already, with each one priced at €22.

We’ll keep you posted on when more shops are stocking them.
