Revlon Lips

Have any of you tried some of Revlon's new beauty products? Well I decided to try out their new 'Colorburst Lip Butter' and the 'Just bitten kissable balm stain' (that was a mouth full wasn't it!).

I bought one of each and decided that I wanted to buy a similar colour, to see if there was any difference between the two products, as it can be really confusing with so many different types now; lipsticks, lip glosses, lip balms, lip stains! So this is my verdict.

I bought the Colorburst Lip Butter in Tutti Frutti for £7.99. I chose this one because I've seen coral coloured lips everywhere at the moment so really wanted to start wearing a current, on-trend lipstick.
It went on really smoothy, with no trouble at all and the colour itself when on is really eye-popping. I had two different people comment on how nice it looked which is definitely a bonus. I also really loved the packaging of this product. It looks a little bit more sophisticated and luxe than some other brands, so I felt like I wanted to just carry it around in my hand on display! The lipstick itself stayed on really well. I only needed to top up after I had eaten lunch - about 5 hours after initially applying it. It's available in 14 different shades so I will definitely be investing in some other colours.

The following day I tried the Kissable balm which was also £7.99, in the colour of Rendevous Rendevous. This takes a little more applicatons to initially put the colour on, otherwise you can't see the colour so well. The colour itself is not as vibrant and eye-popping as the lip butter, however is still the coral shade I'm loving right now. This therefore is ideal if you want your lips to look a little bit more natural and subtle. What I really LOVED about this one is that even after my lunch and drinking continuously all day, the lip balm still stayed on! By the time I got home I had been wearing it for eight and a half hours and it still looked as though I had just applied it 5 minutes ago. Majorly.Impressed. I urge you to go buy this product. A smaller range of 8 colours available but it's so worth it. By far the best 'stay-on' lip product I've ever bought.
 
Here's me wearing both products. I've not applied any techniques to the photos so you can see the real colour. I am wearing the lip butter in the top 2 photos and the balm in the bottom 2. Not sure if you can tell, but the lip butter is a brighter pop of colour, with the balm being more subtle. LOVE IT.
