When I received Revlon's Colorburst Lip Butters for review, it took some time for me to stare at the lovely 4 shades because ---
1. The packaging - I really like how the cap is the same shade as the lipstick.
2. The color - don't you just love the color even before removing the cap?
3. The name - LIP BUTTER
040 Red Velvet
001 Pink truffle
080 Strawberry Shortcake
055 Cupcake
Revlon Colorburst Lip Butters ----
AMW says ---
Pros- Great packaging! Revlon never fails with lipstick packaging! I like the easy access to the right lip color just by looking at their packaging!
- All the Revlon Colorburst Lip Butters are sealed upon purchase.
- Ingredients list listed (but I need someone with good eyes to help me read it lol!)
- Can be applied sheer to pigmented.
- Applies smoothly.
- Available in, I think 20 shades? (Not sure how many they have locally).
- Each of the lip butter shades have a unique "sheen" in which, you can skip lip gloss application if your lips aren't very dry.
- Doesn't feel heavy on lips as opposed to other lipsticks.
- No weird scent.
- Not waxy at all.
- I actually like lipsticks to be shaped like the Revlon Lip Butters as they are easier to apply.
- If they don't have "lip butter" in it's name, I would say it's okay but I was expecting these to be more moisturizing!
- Re-application will be needed, just like regular lipsticks.
- Regular lipsticks are 3.8g, this is 2.55g (which can be a PRO if you easily get tired of a lip color)
The Revlon Colorburst Lip Butters are in between tinted lip balm and lipstick, they're not as moisturizing as tinted lip balm but they are not completely drying as regular lipstick!
Tips
- Since these aren't totally moisturizing, prep your lips by using your choice of lip balm prior to application.
- Before applying the Colorburst Lip Butter, pat on excess moisture with a tissue.
- Darker colored shades can be applied with a lip brush.
- To remove excess moisture from Revlon Colorburst Lip butters, pat translucent powder on lips while covering it with a tissue.
- Try on testers as shades may look differently on tube and on your lips!
Yes.
To whom do I recommend this to?
Anyone who loves lipsticks with a sheen! :)
Where to purchase and how much?
At Revlon Counters (Watsons ONLY for now) for Php525.00 (approx $12.00)
L-R Red Velvet Pink Truffle,
Strawberry Shortcake and Cupcake
Swatches on Hand
Red Velvet
This is a super toned-down version of MAC's Red She Said with a whole lot of moisture!
Pink Truffle
If there's one lipstick that looks exactly just like my lip color (with the added moisture), it would be Pink Truffle! The name could have pink to it but it's more of a deep coral shade. Since this is the better version of my lips! If I want to look effortlessly good, I would pick this up! This may turn out a bit more pinkish to other girls with light colored lips!
Strawberry Shortcake
I can't put it if this pink lipstick is on a cool or warm tone. I guess it goes in-between. If I want something that would give me a baby pink color minus the nude and sickly look, I would go for this!
A medium or dark colored eye makeup would be much appreciated for someone with the same skin tone as mine! Medium to dark colored skin can sport this...on its own!

Cupcake
Cool toned pink lipstick that makes me look sick without any eye makeup on but this looks wonderful on dark, smokey eyes!
Though I want to be selfish and want them all, help me pick one and I'll put the rest inside my train case :)
HELP? :D
HELP? :D
Keep smilin'
Stay happy!
Ahhh, I really need to go pick up one of these! As for which one you should keep, I think you should keep Pink Truffle. Easy, effortless, and pretty~ :)

DeleteI have three and Red velvet's my favorite a close second is Raspberry! These are really mousturizing and glides on well even without a lip alm underneath.
ReplyDeleteAlam mo, I'm sure with lovely lips like yours, (those that aren't dry) this is okay to be applied alone, but I guess my lips are just super dry extra moisturizing is still needed :D
DeleteThey're gorgeous! Should have picked some up in the States!!
ReplyDeleteohh, they aren't available in Muscat?
Deleteoooh i can't wait to try out mine, yey it's the weekend!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see your swatch, I'm sure your experience will be different as compared to mine! Your lips are gorgeous!

ReplyDeleteoh, I guess that's the huge complaint that I have heard, the price!
DeleteAwesome review! I can't wait to buy me some! :)
ReplyDeleteWhich shade are you going for? I can't see to pick the next shade I will like, I may look into swatches online or check out counters
DeleteOh, you have them in already :-) They all look pretty on you but I especially like Pink Truffle. I can't wait for these to get to Malaysia.
ReplyDeleteYes, it's available at Watsons locally! I guess its making its way to your country too! SOOOOOONNN :D
Deletei never did like lip butters though...i find that lip butters are more into locking moisture than providing moisture... or is it just me?
ReplyDeletebut you are right when you said that the packaging of these babies are gorgeous because they are!
so cute!!!!
This one does not provide the moisture that we get from lip balms but it does just KEEP the moisture that your lips had on. Since my lips doesn't have any of those, that's the reason why I use lip balm prior to usage.
DeletePink truffle looks the best on you! Thank you for the headsup that they are already available...I am really waiting for them to reach our shores haha ^_^
ReplyDelete:) ang dami nating gustong umabot dito no? hahahahha gastos na naman!!!! :) I'd go for the Revlon Colourbursts too! the lipsticks they make are really good
Deleteyour swatches helped a lot, will definitely buy Pink Truffle next time :)
ReplyDeleteso Happy to know my swatches help you out :) Goodluck and enjoy!
DeleteWhenever I hear lip butters, it's like something I would wanna eat lol. Awesome swatches!
ReplyDeletehahahah well , it has to do with butters and you know how good they taste :D
Deletehi nikki,
ReplyDeleteim 4months preggy and my lips tends to become dry and it chaps ouch!
if you have extra lip balm or lip butter that you dont use i will gladly adopt them. honestly i dont want to spend on one because IM saving it for the baby. thanks
