Over the past few weeks I have become a little obsessed with the Revlon lip butters. I have four shades to show you today:
- Tutti Frutti (015) an orange colour - lovely for spring/summer but not too bright
-Pink Truffle (001) - a gorgeous brown -toned nude.
-Berry Smoothie (050) - pink - berry colour with a little bit of glitter
-Cotton Candy (045) - pale pink. I have been wearing this for school for a subtle bit of colour and to protect my lips.
Firstly, I'll give a quick review before I show the swatches. I was extremely surprised at how pigmented these were. I expected them to be more like tinted lip balms (despite the Colourburst advertising - duh!) but instead I found them more like a lip stick in terms of pigmentation.
The only shade I haven't worn loads is Tutti -Frutti, however, I did buy this for spring/summer so it's not that I don't like the shade.
Secondly, they are wonderfully moisturising, even after the colour has gone they feel so nourishing as they contain mango, shea and coconut butter which is brilliant as it means that you can skip lip balm. They have a lovely shine to them but aren't sticky so are a great alternative to gloss which I love but can't wear it with my hair down on a windy day - ergh, long hair struggles.
The only thing that would make them better is if they lasted slightly longer, however, they are really easy to apply even without a mirror so I just top them up every few hours.
Here are the swatches (I apologize that they aren't brilliant and my mouth looks weird but you can see the colour)

I hope you liked this post, I would highly recommend these lip butters, they are £7.99 but usually stores such as Boots and Superdrug have offers on brands such as Revlon.
I'd love to try some more colours so if you have any suggestions let me know!
