Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in Berry Smoothie - swatches, pics, review

Hello, Beautiful!

With so much positive talk about the Revlon Colorburst Lip Butters, I had to give one a try. Now that I've tried one I want more shades! I like them more than the L'Oreal Colour Riche Balms because the Revlon Lip Butter provides more color to my lips while still feeling hydrating. I picked up the shade Berry Smoothie, which is a pretty pink and feels great on my lips.

Check out my pics, swatches, stats, and review...

Formula:

I believe this lip butter is named a lip "butter" because it feels like butter gliding onto your lips; not in a greasy way, but a smooth and soft way. It made my lips feel hydrated and look beautiful. I really love these!

Wear:

Average wear. It didn't last very long on me, but I don't mind re-applying as needed.

Coverage:

Sheer to light color; it's not super sheer where you won't see the color, but it's not super pigmented either where it looks like a lipstick. It's somewhere in between. A perfect way to wear a lip balm.

Shade Info:

Currently available in 20 pretty shades. I only have one, but I really want more. I like these a lot. I have my eye on these shades: Sweet Tart, Strawberry Shortcake, Cherry Tart, Lollipop, and Creamsicle.

Cost/Availability:
$6.00 to $8.00 depending where you shop (0.09 oz full size). Available at Target, Wal-Mart, CVS, etc. Basically everywhere Revlon cosmetics are sold.


Packaging:

Square tube that has a fishnet-like pattern. The cap is color-coordinating to the balm color (which seems to be a trend or the new norm); twist-up balm.

Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter Review:

These are fantastic! I really love how my lips feel when I wear this. The shade, Berry Smoothie, is natural looking yet still gives my lips a little something extra. It's not really sheer, but it's not richly pigmented either. it's a soft color that looks pretty.

The hydration is nice; I mean, after all this is a lip balm -- even though it looks like a lipstick. I didn't feel the hydration lasted as long as others I've tried (the YSL Volupte Sheer Candy Glossy Balm Crystal Color seems to be the best so far for hydration).

Overall a really great product that I'd love to get more of. Yes, I would recommend these!
