The Revlon
Lip Butters were raved about on YouTube and I loved the way 025 Peach Parfait
looked on women of similar skin tone to me so I had to try it out. Of course,
it was sold out at a couple places, but my most wonderful husband found it at a
CVS one night. I was obsessed with this lipstick after the first try (and still
am). It is now my go-to lipstick when I don’t feel like thinking about what I’m
going to wear.
And since I
loved this one, naturally, I needed to try more. I tried to get a range of
colors to see if the formula was similar across colors (in some lipstick lines
lighter colors have a slightly different formula, or apply differently, than
darker colors). The formula is definitely buttery and feels very nice on the
lips. It is a thicker, almost melty, formula and is a tiny bit sticky. I would
not recommend leaving this lipstick in your car—it would be a mess. It can also
be a little messy in the tube; but to me, the way the colors look on me and the
formula make it worth it. It also smells faintly of cake/vanilla (always a plus
when done right).
Below are
four that I have:
001 Pink
Truffle
This color was one of my favorite products of January.
It is the perfect “your lips but better” color for me. It is a very muted
brown-pink. It looks very natural, and is another go-to for me when I don’t
feel like thinking about my lip color. This color does not have any shimmer in
it. It has the look of a lip gloss, but the feel of a lipstick. It took me a
while to find this one, it was sold out everywhere. When I see it again, I will
be buying a back up.
025 Peach
Parfait
This is a deeper peach color, but
still looks very natural. It has very fine glitter in it, but it’s not
overbearing. I use this color so much I already have two backups! It goes well
with pretty much everything—smoky eye, natural eye, no make-up look. I can’t get
enough!
027 Juicy
Papaya
This will be a great color for
summer. It is a very bright, light pinky coral. It is colorful, but not very
saturated so I love it. The finish is very similar to Pink Truffle—no shimmer
but has a lip gloss shine. I would recommend exfoliating before using this
color otherwise it can look uneven. I haven’t worn this color too much because
it really is more of a spring/summer color. Soon Juicy Papaya, soon!
050 Berry
Smoothie
This is a brighter berry color and
also has very fine glitter in it. This is the type of berry color that can take
you through all the seasons—not too dark, not to bright—it’s just right. I use
this when I want a more saturated color on my lip. I don’t need a lip liner
with it (or any of the lip butters) which is a bonus.
Overall, I
really, really love this lipstick line. I’m interested in comparing these to
other lip butter-esque lipsticks. I just got one of the Almay Butter Kisses; other brands have
similar products as well.
Have you
tried Revlon Lip Butters or any other “butter” lipsticks? Let me know your
thoughts!
