Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter

Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in Creme Brulee

I popped in to Boots the other day and I had a £3 off Revlon voucher, so I decided to buy my first Revlon lip butter! I have heard lots of good things about these and I have swatched them on numerous occasions, but for some reason I just never bought any, until now! I think the formula is really lovely - it is so creamy and moisturising whilst also being quite pigmented.


The colour I decided to buy was Creme Brulee and when I tried this on when I got home, I didn't like it. I applied quite a lot because I wasn't expecting it to be very pigmented and it just made my lips look brown. However, when I applied less it actually looks really nice. You don't need much of this and it just leaves a lovely nude, glossy colour on the lips which I really like. It's quite subtle and natural. The colour is slightly more brown then I usually like, but I just apply a small amount so it's not too pigmented.


I know the Revlon lip butter and L'Oreal rouge caresse lipstick get compared to each other so if you want to read what I think about the L'Oreal rouge caresse lipsticks, I have a blog post here.


My only negative about these lip butters if they don't last very long on the lips. They are very creamy which means they come off quite quickly and I find I need to reapply this quite regularly.


Have you found a perfect nude lipstick? Do you prefer Revlon lip butters or L'Oreal rouge caresse lipstick?

L'Oreal Rouge Caresse Lipstick Review

I believe the L'Oreal rouge caresse lipsticks are quite a new release to the UK. I haven't heard much about them, however I spotted them the other day in Boots and was immediately drawn to them! The packaging is really nice and good quality considering the price. 

These lipsticks are available in 10 shades, and they are all really lovely. The shade that I bought was Impulsive Fuschia, 202 - a gorgeous, bright fuschia colour which I think will be perfect in the summer. 

The colour is definitely buildable which I like. In the day I wear it quite sheer and then build it up to a brighter, more intense colour in the evening.

They feel very glossy and moisturising on the lips and the staying power is actually pretty good. I only need to re-apply this a couple of times in the day to keep the colour bright and glossy.

I am definately going to go back to Boots and buy some more. I absolutely love the one I have and all the other colours were lovely.

They are priced at £7.99 which I think is a really good price. (And currently there is a 3 for 2 offer on in Boots!) I would definately recommend giving these a look when you next pass them.
