Product Information

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?

That shade hadn't even been invented then. Also, the pink that she applied in the famous "rainy cab" scene with George Peppard, looks more peachy-coral than "....Afternoon" does. She did wear "Pink in the Afternoon" later, in the stunning Revlon ad above. Gorgeous Audrey is so beautiful in it!The formula is sheer but buildable, and it has a balmy, moisturizing texture that's incredibly comfortable to wear throughout the day.

Re: AUDREY HEPBURN WORE REVLON'S "PINK IN THE AFTERNOON"

I still think it's more mauve than what she wore in the 60s, but if looks good on you who really cares? One vote for Pink In The Afternoon is that Audrey reportedly wore Fire And Ice in Funny Face (1957) so it wouldn't be too far of a jump to say she would wear another Revlon shade in Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961). It is also possible that Pink In The Afternoon was originally named something else. Looking at the shade list from the 50s, the color Blase Apricot seems to resemble the salmon-pink color that Holly Golightly wore, but other than that I have seen no mention of it. But she did not wear it in "Breakfast at Tiffany's", as has been widely rumored. (Who knew there's been a hot debate raging online about this!) 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. It's highly pigmented and deposits a good amount with just one swipe. It also has a very luxurious feel and wears comfortably on the lips throughout the day.

If that was the actual shade, then they've definitely tweaked it a little bit in recent years, most probably to preserve the authenticity. However, they still kept it as close to the original as possible so that it sells, and it works for them! A while ago, I did some research and felt confident I could confirm that Audrey Hepburn did not wear Pink in the Afternoon by Revlon in Breakfast at Tiffany's -- a myth that is very popular on the interwebz. Instead it was released in the Spring of 1983, with a name inspired by Hepburn's movie Love in Afternoon. 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 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.

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. And without delving into Audrey's biography, we all know that the woman was a force of nature who led a remarkable and charitable life from her early childhood, throughout her career, all the way to her untimely passing. Recent flub: "Ballerina Shoes" "L'Oreal" Pale enough, almost too pale, but also too warm a pink (for me). And since the search was unexpectedly long, I will make things easier for you and present you with a list of the best dupes that I found. Revlon – Pink In The AfternoonI 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? 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. 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. Besides that, the formula also contains SPF 15 to protect your lips from overdrying and becoming damaged by the UV rays. Closing Thoughts It has a semi-opaque pigmentation that applies evenly and a non-drying formula that’s comfortable to wear and is hydrating to the lips.
