Hello loves!
I’m a big fan of matte lipsticks;
I generally just buy MAC matte lipsticks because I know I’m going to get
exactly what I want without any disappointments such as dryness. I am now so
happy to say I’ve found an alternative to my normal MAC lipsticks and at such a
great price.
My thoughts:
Revlon describes these lipsticks
as ‘Ultra-creamy saturated lip
colour that delivers beautiful, lightweight matte colour without any dryness,
caking or fading’.
I have to say I
completely agree with this. I was
at first a bit on the fence of whether to try these or not but decided as Boots
had an offer on for Revlon products, I may as well go for it. This particular
lipstick is in the shade ‘Pink Pout’. On application the colour pay off is
fabulous, it’s a soft pink with a slight bluish undertone to it (a mix between
MACs Snob and St.Germain), So pigmented and smooth. I would describe it as an
everyday sort of pink, something not too bright but not too boring for an
everyday wear.
I wear the lipstick
basically all day. So, I apply it first thing in the morning when I put my face
on for the day then, I reapply just after I have my lunch which then is left on
until 4 to 5pm, it stays on without a problem, I talk A LOT and I mean a lot
and even then the colour doesn’t seem to fade.
The problem with many
matte lipsticks is that they dry out your lips, this is one of my pet peeves, I
really dislike any drying products. But this lipstick does not have that issue,
its not drying at all, it keeps my lips moisturised within the time I wear it.
Price:
I purchased
this for £7.49 from boots, which now when I think about it and compare it to a
MAC lipstick, which retails for £14.00 is a bit of a steal. It’s a great
alternative especially when it’s going to save you near enough £6.50!
My overall opinion of this
lipstick is that it’s absolutely worth £7.49! The actual colour of the lipstick
is lovely, not too over bearing for an everyday sort of pink. It doesn’t contain
a scent, which I think is important especially with lipsticks, the packaging is
sleek silver and black so when you pull it out of your purse it looks nice and
sleek.
I have been so
impressed with just how much I enjoy wearing it, on my next trip to Boots I
plan to pick up ‘nude attitude and really red’ from the same collection.
Have you tried any of
the Revlon Super lustrous lipsticks?
