Ok. I know I am posting this late, because this stuff has been already sold out at many websites. But can not resist myself to post review on this cutesy holiday set..!!
This is a cute mini lipstick set with 6 shades of Revolution Lipstick and it includes a full-sized 24/7 Glide-On Lip Pencil in Ozone (Clear), which retails for $39. This set was a limited edition holiday set for year 2014. But still it's available on many online shopping sites e.g macy's. I got mine last month from macy's. It features both permanent shades and previously released shades!
The packaging is beautiful. All of the products come housed in a cardboard box with a flip-open top and magnetic closure. The miniature lipsticks can be a little frustrating to use, as they are very small and don't fit in your hand like a typical lipstick. I really loved the idea of this set because you can experiment with various shades of lipstick rather than having to commit to one. The amount in each mini lipstick is 1g compared to the 2.8g of each full-sized Revolution lipstick, so you're getting about one-third of a full lipstick in this miniature set.
Another thing which is really impressing about this set that it has a 24/7 lip liner which is full sized, regular retail price is $20 and in a clear shade. The reasoning behind including a clear shade is very intelligent and practical in my opinion. This can be used under any color of lipstick and since they are giving a variety of nudes, pinks and reds alltogether, it can be used underneath to prevent feathering since they are very intensely pigmented and can tend to bleed since they are very much smooth in texture.
New shades:
Ladyflower is a bright rose pink with cool undertones.
Illicit is a very sheer baby pink with a frosted finish.
Crush is a bright vivid fuchsia pink with cool undertones and a luminous finish.
Bestsellers:
Gash is a deep red with very fine shimmer, has cool undertones and a creamy finish.
F-Bomb is a classic red with cream finish.
Liar is a pinky brown nude with a warm undertone.
Ozone is a clear, completely transparent pencil. It's completely invisible once applied on lips. This liner applied smoothly and easily without dragging my lips. It can be used as a traditional lip liner underneath any lip color, to keep lip products in place without altering the color, or can be worn outside of natural lip line to prevent feathering.

Overall I am much impressed. It's such a fun little kit with serious pigmentation. They're long-lasting, hydrating and have such intensity the little bullet will last for quite a good time period. It's great buy for someone who's torn between shades or wants a little tester of some of the revolution lipsticks by Urban Decay. My absolute favorite liar and f-bomb is definitely on my repurchase list..!!
