Revlon Colorburst Lip Butters

These were first launched in the USA and I remember waiting for a while for them to arrive in the UK. When they finally arrived I knew I had to try them out. I waited until they were on offer at £5.99 and I wanted to pick shades I knew I would wear and because they are not lipsticks I thought I would be safe to pick up a brighter colour I wouldn’t usually choose.
The packaging is made of plastic and has a sort of quilted design on two sides of four and the colour of the packaging corresponds to the shade it is housing. The base is black plastic, which has the shade sticker. The cylindrical tube the product is dispensed from is made of reflective silver plastic. To dispense the product, you pull the packaging off and twist the base. The butter is slanted in shape and has a flat base. It is a gel formula with mango, shea and cocoa butter. You get 2.5g of product in each tube. There are many shades ranging from light to dark, but I currently only have two.
The two shades I have are Peach Parfait (025), which is a light nude pink with a golden sheen and Sweet Tart (090), which is a bright slightly coral hot pink.
This product is supposed to be buttery in texture so that it glides onto your lips. It should be moisturising and hydrating, as well as making your lips feel soft and giving them a beautiful sheer to medium colour and a healthy shine.

First of all, the packaging is lovely and very practical and you can easily see the different shades. It glides onto your lips like butter, but it doesn’t give full coverage, so you may be able to see your natural lip colour through the shade you put on. The colour payoff is sheer to medium for the beautiful shades and your lips are finished off with a healthy shine. It does feel like a lip balm when you have applied it to your lips and it makes them feel soft. It only makes your lips feel moisturised and hydrated when you are actually wearing it. When the product has worn away the effects wear away with it. The major plus point is that they are very easy to build and the brighter the colour, the more vibrant it will look on your lips after being layered. The lip butters last around three hours on the lips without food and drink. The brighter colours tend to last a little longer.

Overall this is a great product and it perfect for people who would like to wear bolder colours on their lips, but find that lipsticks can be too harsh. The only downside I find is that since it is a lip butter, you would expect your lips to still feel a bit nourished even when the colour has worn away, but they don’t, having said that I have already got my eye on another shade called Berry Smoothie.

Haul: Small Unmentioned Purchases

For today’s post I am going to share with you a few products that I have recently purchased and have not mentioned. I actually purchased one of the products last year but I thought I would include it anyway because I have not mentioned it before. The product I bought last year was from Asda and it is the Maybelline Color Tattoo 24 HR Cream/Gel Eyeshadow in Pink Gold . I bought it for £4.99 and I got it because I thought it was limited edition but as it turned out it is actually permanent. It is a gorgeous colour! Now for the products I have bought recently this year. The Urban Decay Oz: The Great and Powerful Theodora Palette  for £35 from BeautyBay.com. I have used this palette a few times and I really like it. From Superdrug I picked up a Maybelline theROCKET Volum’Express Mascara  in the shade Black because I was interested in trying it and I got it for £5.99 because it had a £2 off offer. From Home Bargains I picked up another can of the TRESemmé Extra Hold...

Haul: Recent Purchases #6

I thought I would share a haul with you today. I have made several purchases here and there since my last haul, but I thought I would share these items with you today and I purchased them all around the same time. First of all I purchased a few things from FeelUnique.com.

I purchased two Velour Liquid Lipsticks in Anna Nicole and Leo and Reflective Make-Up Bag in Dark Blue . I also wanted the Pumpkin Pie liquid lipstick from JSC, but it was out of stock. I am also interested in the Flamethrower shade as well, but it is such a bright block orange shade and it kind of sca...

Beauty Bakerie Lip Whips & Remover

I had wanted to try these lipsticks for a very long time, but I was sceptical as I had heard mixed reviews. Some people love them, some people dislike them. I had also heard that they are very hard to remove, which leads me to believe that the staying power must be there. My current favourite liquid lipsticks are still the JSC Velour ones and nothing else I have tried has topped them yet, a couple of brands have come close though! ABOUT THE PRODUCTS The packaging of the lipsticks is simple, but aesthetically pleasing; I like the blue accent caps. It is made out of plastic and there is something inside the tube to make the formula looked twisted in the tube, which is a nice detail that I haven’t seen before. The applicator is a little pear shaped sponge with a little well in the middle to hold the product. The packaging of the remover is also pretty simple and cute. The container is made of lightweight plastic and you could easily repurpose it once you have used up the wipes. You get 3...
