I'm sure most are aware of Revlon Lip Butters by now?
They are avaliable for pre-sale in the UK via Boots £7.99 each or 2 for £10 - link
Sadly the UK will only be receiving 14 of the 20 shades that are available in the US/Canada
which I am a little annoyed about as I always feel like the UK gets the short end of the stick
when it comes to shade ranges and I am not specifically targeting Revlon for this
as a good few brands are just as guilty!
I thought I'd share the shades I have imported so you can have a better idea of the shades
before you purchase any later on this month.
Much like the other products by Revlon these little lip wonders come packaged complete
with the quilted design on the plastic outer sleeves, it gives a slight high end feel.
Each shades packaging matches the shade inside, I do like a bit of colour coordination!
In my opinion the casing is pretty, practical and sturdy which is all I can ask for.
Revlon Tutti Frutti is a bright true orange shade in bullet form
but applied it sheers out and is a muted orange almost coral shade.
I found this to be one of the better pigmented shades and will show up even on pigmented lips.
If you like the idea of orange lipstick but would prefer a more subtle approach this is the shade for you.
For me this is a great shade for the summer!
The formula of these is something else, I had no idea I would enjoy wearing these quite as much as I do!
Generally speaking the shades are well pigmented and glide on very much like a traditional lip balm.
Yet they superior colour pay off in comparison to a standard tinted lip balm.
Each shade gives a semi-opaque coverage of colour with a light glossy finish,
they are very moisturising and comfortable to wear.
I liken these a little to Mac Cremesheen lipsticks as they feel and wear very similar on my lips,
obviously each one of us will have different results but this is what they remind me of.
The Revlon Lip Butters have a very mild typical lipstick scent but nothing noticeable when worn.
I found these to wear around 2-3 hours some shades wore longer than others
but they are not exactly long lasting.
Overall I am very impressed with these lipstick/lip balm hybrids!
Product Summary
Round Up - A great combination of lipstick and lip balm that gives the best of both worlds.
Best For - Fans of tinted lip balms or light moisturising lip coverage!
Pigmentation - Generally 7/10 but really great for what it is.

Gorgeous shade for summer! Revlon lipsticks have to be one of my favourite packaging-wise, they feel so sturdy and much more expensive! X
ReplyDeleteIt's quite a subtle colour compared to the actual colour of the lipstick isnt it!! They all look really moisturising these lipsticks xxx
ReplyDeleteWow !!!! I want this colour :)
ReplyDeleteWooooooooooow! This really looks amazing on you! I'm not sure i'd agree they show up on pigmented lips. On me this particular shade barely scratches the surface at an orangey-coral. The way it looks on you is what i'd hoped for.
ReplyDeleteThis shade is my kind of color.BEAUTIFUL.I think I'll be picking it up.
ReplyDeletei have so many of the lip butters but STILL need to grab tutti frutti! looks gorgeous!!
