Revlon Colorburst Lipstick in Fuchsia

Hey loves!

How's your long weekend so far? I hope you're not stuck outside in the pouring rain and heavy traffic. :)

For tonight's post, I'll share with you a swatch of a lipstick that was given to me by my sister. It's one of her hand-me-downs. My sis and I are kind of used to borrowing each other's makeup... I know that some of you might be shaking their heads and saying that that's unhygienic (I would think the same way if it were other people), but hey, that's just sisterly love! 

Revlon Colorburst Lipstick in Fuchsia

Not too sure if Revlon has phased these Colorburst lipsticks out because I only see their balms under the Colorburst category. If any of you know something about this, please comment below. :P

So the shade is Fuchsia. My sis loves bold pink shades with blue undertones so I'm not surprised that she sent me this Fuchsia shade.

It's like half of her lipsticks are Fuchsia. LOL

This is a swatch on my hand.

And this is how the lipstick looks like when applied on my lips.

The color looks beautiful and looks nice with my warm skin. I like that this lippie doesn't dry my lips and it lasts a long while. It's an awesome lipstick for everyday wear. :)

And that's all for today/tonight! :)

Cheers,

Revlon Colorburst Balm Stain in Crush Beguin

Hey loves!

I just found a new go-to lipstick! And I wasn't even planning on getting a new lippie at all! 

Revlon Colorburst Balm Stain in Crush Beguin

Got this at 50% off. The original price was PhP 575.00.

I was at the department store one day and saw that Revlon was on sale. I saw that the prices were hugely discounted and I just thought, "why not take advantage of this?" It has been a while since I have used a product from the brand anyway. 

I've tried their balm stains before and I think they are pretty good. Since they were at 50% off, I decided to get one, and the shade that was most interesting to me was Crush Beguin.

I'm into darker shades lately, but this one is not too dark. It's pretty wearable actually. I just think that I want a break from the bright reds and pinks I usually wear, as well as nudes. I'm all for berry shades, plums, and deep fuchsias now.

This one is a violet red shade. 

A swatch on my hand

On my lips, it looks so good because it compliments the warm shade of my skin really well. It has this slight glossy finish that make my lips look so healthy and moisturized. I failed to take a pic of the stain it leaves on but it is pretty close to the color when I just apply it. Just imagine it without the glossy effect. ;P

I'm currently using this the most often among my lippie collection. It gives a bold color to my lips and it is soooo long-lasting because it's a stain, but still keeps my lips moisturized I usually complain that some stains dry my lips, but not this one! 

I would love to try out more shades from this line, and maybe the matte balms if they're good too. Any recommendations? :)

Cheers,

Revlon Colorbust Lip Butter in Red Velvet

Hey dears!

One of the things I love about blogging is the friends I get to meet from events and even just from comment exchanging thru our blogs. 

I met Robin last year. March 9, 2013 to be exact (Oooh... it was the anniversary of our acquaintance a few days ago)! She's a friend of my college classmate and she also blogs (check out her blog here). We share so much in common, like makeup and man crushes, that we got along so fast.

We got to hang every once in a while and I also invited her to my birthday celebration. She called me one day and promised me a red lipstick for my birthday when she was out shopping... but unfortunately, we weren't able to see each other soon enough until a month ago when she went to our house for a sleepover!

But she still kept her word and got me this...

It's a Revlon Colorbust Lip Butter!

I've never tried one before and I LOVE red lippies so I was so happy to get it. Thanks, Robin!

The shade is Red Velvet.

A tube of this lipstick is Php 525.00.

The tube is pretty simple. The crystal cap has the same color as the lipstick. At the top is a clear, plastic glass so you can see the lipstick inside.

Below are the labels of the lippie:

More info on the website:

SHINY COLOR + BUTTERY BALM 94% of women felt lips were softer smoother and instantly hydrated.

- Hydrating mango, shea and coconut butter formula boosts lip moisture by 156%

- Pampering gel formula provides super charged hydration and glides on lips buttery smooth

- Sheer to medium colour with buttery shine

- Available in 20 luscious shades

So this product is a mixture of a lipstick and a lip balm/butter. So it has the vibrant color of a lipstick but the moisturizing properties of a balm. It's a 2-in-1 product so I'm sure many can appreciate this.

A closeup of the product

There is a sweet scent that is very mild. Almost unnoticeable. This lippie glides easily on the lips or skin.

Swatch on hand

The color is bright and you get that rich bold color on my hand in just one swipe. It also feels light and not greasy or waxy when worn

And below are pictures of my lips with the product on:

It gives a rich color payoff with glossy finish. It makes my lips look so healthy and full. The lasting power is pretty good and it doesn't cause chapping nor does it bleed on the lines of my lips.

I like this product and I'm so glad that Robin got me this. 

Oh you know me so well!

Cheers,

DAWN
