Revlon Just Bitten™ Kissable Lip Balm Stain - Romantic

Hi everyone.

I purchased another Revlon Just Bitten™ Kissable Lip Balm Stain today in Boots for £5.99 (this is currently an introductory offer and their usual price will then be £7.99) I already own two of the Lip Stain's and I just couldn't resist picking up another one what with they still being on offer. I've heard quite a few people claim that the Lip Stains are actually a cheaper alternative to the Clinique Chubby Sticks.

Today I will be reviewing my Lip Stain in ''Romantic''



Out of the 3 Lip Stains I own I must say I'm most disappointed with this one, I was expecting the colour to be a lot more pigmented as Lovesick and Cherish have excellent colour pay-off even with just one layer but on the picture above there is actually about 4 layers, don't get me wrong it would perfect if you are too afraid to wear a bold bright red lip and prefer a red that is much more subtle, I don't hate this shade I just don't love it and I don't think I will be getting much wear out of this Lip Stain which is a shame.

The Lip Stains are very creamy and non-drying I've tried a few other Lip Stains before and my lips have been left feeling rather dried and flakey. 

The ''shine'' lasts for a couple of hours and after that the colour pretty much stains your lips, mind you that is probaly why they are called Lip Stains. Another great thing about the Lip Stains is that you don't have to sharpen them you simply twist the silver part at the bottom and more product travels up the tube.

There are 7 shades available in the UK and are currently available in Boots and Superdrug.

Have you tried any of the Lip Stains yet?

Revlon Just Bitten™ Kissable Lip Balm Stain - Lovesick

Hi everyone.

I was mooching around Boots a couple of days ago and I bought 2 of the new Revlon Just Bitten™ Kissable Lip Balm Stains which were £5.99 each (this is currently an introductory offer and their usual price will then be £7.99). I've heard a lot of people tell me that the Lip Stains are a cheaper alternative to the Clinique Chubby Sticks, I had actually been hesitating whether to purchase a couple of the Chubby Sticks but as these were a much cheaper alternative I just couldn't resist.

Today I will be reviewing one of my Lip Stains in shade ''Lovesick''



I won't go into a in-depth review about the colour as you can probaly tell from the swatch that it is a pretty bright pink colour when applied to the lips. This is only one layer but you could add another layer to intensify the colour. I was also expecting them to smell slightly fruity however they do have a hint of a minty smell to them which isn't unpleasant at all.

The Lip Stains are very creamy and non-drying I've tried a few other Lip Stains before and my lips have been left feeling rather dried and flakey. The colour payoff is much better than I was expecting too especially for a drugstore product.
