Revlon is one of my favorite
brands from the drugstore; especially for lip products! Their colorstay
foundation is my everyday foundation (well, on the days when I wear foundation
:-)) and recently I have been totally impressed by their lip crayons...
Summer is almost gone and
we might wanna savor the last few days with full-on ORANGEy-coral lips :-)
Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in "Kiss me Coral" is an appropriate
choice to do just that! It's easy-to-use, has a very nice formula, gives a
decent few hrs. of wear and it's very very affordable. And that name is just cute!
The lipstick costs
anywhere between 5 to 8.49$ for 0.17 oz. (5 g) of products. It’s been a while
since I bought it, but I believe it was around 4.50$ in Walmart. The good
thing is Revlon is available in many stores like Ulta, Walmart, Walgreens, CVS and Target. Plus, you can almost always find sale offers like "Buy one Get
one free" here in USA. It's also relatively easy to find in India :-)
Packaging is pretty and
functional too; considering the price. This is how I visualized lipstick to
look like when I was a child! Ha ha! I love the gold with the black; it gives
me a nice nostalgic vintage-y kind of feel. I also appreciate the transparent
top on the cap. You can definitely get a peek of the color inside. It’s pretty
sturdy too; I have travelled a few times with it and it has remained intact!
Yes, it’s a bold color,
but the formula is really easy to wear. I can just slap it on and go out
the door. I, usually, NEED lip liners to wear bold-bright colors, but not with
this one! It is a creamy formula but end finish is definitely with a subtle sheen;
not overly glossy! It also does not bleed or transfer to the teeth :-) But because
it’s a creamy formula, you have to trade off the wear-time. It lasts around 2.5
to 4 hrs. on me before it fades. And when I say "fade" I mean it completely
vanishes ;-) ;-) ! But it’s not a tough color to wear; I don't really mind
reapplying.
Bright and bold colors
are slowly becoming my thing! This was one of the first bright colors I owned
and I have not stopped since then :-) "Kiss me Coral" is an orange-y coral shade
with an almost invisible red undertone. It's not a straight up "orange", but I consider it to be one. That’s just me though! I definitely
think it suites my kind of tanned skin tone. If you don’t own any bright
colors yet, this may be a good start! Its fun and bright without being
overwhelming and can surely brighten up your entire face!
Pros:
- Affordable and easily accessible.
- Easy-to-wear.
- Very easy on the lips despite being a bright color.
- Pigmented. Color is true to the tube.
Cons:
- Does not last more than 3-4 hrs.
I will definitely recommend it, if you are interested in fun summer
shades. And if you like, wear it and flaunt it
in winter or any weather for that matter! You will not be disappointed :-)
Thank you a lot for visiting my
blog, people! Hope you all are having a wonderful Labor Day weekend :-) Much loveeeee......................
