Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick, High Impact Lipcolour with Moisturising Creamy Formula, Infused with Vitamin E and Avocado Oil in Pink, Pink in the Afternoon (415)

Product Information

As for the 60's brand, I would put my money on it being from Dior. Hepburn was a francophile with expensive tastes. She didn't seem to wear Chanel much, and I don't think Givenchy and YSL started their makeup line until the mid to late 60s. It goes on with an incredibly soft and lightweight texture and helps moisturize and smooth the lips. A bonus ingredient is hyaluronic acid which helps attract moisture into the skin and leave it plump and hydrated. This pinky nude has a cream texture that's comfortable to wear, and it's quite a flattering shade for both warm and cool-toned complexions.

I really like the way it looks on my fair skin. The texture is creamy and non-drying, and the color is a flattering shade that sits perfectly between pink and peach, neither too bright nor too pale. It works beautifully for day, but can also be worn at night with a dramatic eye look. Hepburn wears the shade (or a similar one) with a smoky brown eye and winged liner in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Is Revlon Pink in the Afternoon discontinued? The formula is sheer but buildable, and it has a balmy, moisturizing texture that's incredibly comfortable to wear throughout the day. We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when Apparently, Revlon's “Pink In The Afternoon” is quite difficult to find, and it’s not unusual for there to be a waiting list for it in stores. Revlon – Dewy Peach Flush Punch" Maybelline More moody, and about as deep as I can go. I can just about get away with this much "brown" in a pink, but no more.If you search "Revlon Pink In The Afternoon" online, you just might find its connection with Audrey Hepburn...but was it the actual shade worn by Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany's? Candy Addict" Revlon My new favorite. It's very matte, so I use a little clear gloss with it. Perfect intensity for a pale complexion.

It has the slightest shift of salmon pink when swatched on the wrist, but it ultimately pays off quite rose-pink on the lips. If you are into bright colors, still you need a muted pink for days when you want to be natural, that’s when you need this kind of a pink. So with that out of the way, I began my search, hoping to find a modern-day dupe for obtaining the same look as Audrey, even if the formula isn't exact.For one, there aren't any advertisements that have surfaced so far that mention Pink In The Afternoon any earlier than the 80s. Plus, in my research, I have not found the name Pink In The Afternoon on any of the shade lists from Revlon in the 50s. These lists only include shades like Cherries In The Snow, Stormy Pink, Fire And Ice, etc. and no mention of Pink In The Afternoon. It applies smoothly and evenly across the lips and is also buildable if you want extra shine. You also don't have to worry that it will settle into the creases of your lips because it tends to fill them up quite nicely. One could reasonably assume that by combining Audrey wearing Pink In The Afternoon with ad copy about Breakfast at Tiffany's that Revlon was confirming she wore the shade in the movie. For a while, it was rumored that this was THE shade, but doubts soon followed.

If you are shy, lip glossy kind of a person, you still need those baby pink lips for some days and I am sure you will be able to pull it off. I remember excitedly sniffing it in a dept. store, only to be slightly disappointed. I think another of Givenchy's scents, --the haunting and highly unusual "Le De"-- would have been more "Audrey". ..... But what do I know? It's also possible that Revlon created a custom shade for Audrey at the time as she was most definitely a rising star in the 50s. They may have decided in the 80s to make the shade available and called it Pink In The Afternoon - although it's still a mystery why they wouldn't name it something related to Breakfast at Tiffany's. The texture applies evenly and has a moderate slip with semi-opaque coverage. It will definitely last for over 4-5 hours if you don't eat or drink, but you will likely have to reapply after that. Besides that, the formula also contains SPF 15 to protect your lips from overdrying and becoming damaged by the UV rays.
