Ahhh Revlon, my trusty lipstick provider! Revlon never lets me down, apart from that one time. And yet again they have pulled the cat out of the bag to provide us with yet another beauty, the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Lip Balms, re-vamped, to bring us matte and lacquer finishes newly named the Revlon Colourburst Lacquer and Matte Balms.
All the shades look b-e-a-utiful, but the ones that just seemed to jump out at me were the shades Demure Réservée, number 105 and Elusive Insatiable, number 205. The first is part of the lacquer finishes, but I have to say that it really doesn't come off that in your face, it has a gorgeous shimmer to it that's subtle but noticeable. The colour is an absolutely gorgeous nude pink that will flatter most skin tones. Another thing that caught my attention, although quite trivial, was the packaging. Encased in a shiny tube that catches your eye, and looks pretty, it's quite darn hard to just walk by these....
As for the Matte finish, it's pretty much the same deal, a rose pink smooth matte, that although isn't as prettily packaged, still steps up to the mark with it's colour.
Onto the important part! How do they wear/feel? The durability of them isn't the best, not bad, but not good, they'll last you until you eat or drink a coffee/tea, but they definitely need re-applying. And as for how they feel -pretty nice! Smooth, soft and certainly not uncomfortable; although I have to say the Matte and Original formulas come off a lot smoother than the Lacquer effect, but it redeems itself with the fact that there's certainly no worry of having that horrible drying effect that makes our lips look like a desert savannah!
Another brilliant formula from Revlon, they just never let a girl down...
