Revlon Gold Dust Poussiere Doree Colorburst Lip Gloss 024


Hey Ladies,

How are you all doing today ?? Yesterday it rained heavily here in muscat,so its quite pleasant day today

Friends today i am gonna share my fav product with you i.e Lipgloss. It’s from Revlon Colorburst Range and the Shade is 024 Gold Dust

Product Details:

This weightless gloss makes lips pop with 5X more shine than patent leather
Plush applicator shaped to curves of your lips for smooth, even application of colour
A pop of weightless color with vivid, mirror-like shine
Revlon ColorBursts Elasticolor technology for rich colour with a weightless feel
Moisturizers and anti-oxidants such as sweet almond oil and vitamin E conditions and improves lip texture
Apply lip-gloss directly to lips, using plush applicator shaped to curves of your lips


Price : Varies from 470 Rs to 500 Rs for 5.9ml Product


 My Opinion on Gold Dust:
·         The shade is a proper Nudish/Beige with some sparkles in it. It turns orangey shade on me.
·         It has no smell and taste also the formula is not sticky
·         It does last for couple of hours and leaves a Nudish stain behind but with no gloss, so I have to keep retouching to get that glossy finish on my lips.
·         The packaging is slender and well-designed, with a semi-matte black cap with a transparent tube which shows the shade perfectly.


·         The wand has a small sponge applicator brush which picks up good amount of product.
·         I usually love Nude /Natural colors with pink or brown undertone.
·         With this shade I had also applied a very light Lip Liner just to define my lips properly.
·         I personally believe that this shade would be perfect on any Nude Lipstick or with Revlon Color stay Smooth Nude Shade.

Ingredients:
Triisostearyl Citrate, Polybutene, Tridecyl Trimellitate, Silica Silylate, Cetyl/PEG/PPG 10/1 Dimethicone, Hexyl Laurate, Polyglyceryl 4 Isostearate, Calcium Sodium Borosilicate, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Cellulose, Paraffin, Octyldodecyl Neopentanoate, PPG 3 Benzyl Ether Myristate, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis Oil (Sweet Almond), Phospholipids, Persea Gratissima Fruit Extract (Avocado), Olea Europaea (Olive) Extract (Olive), Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract (Matricaria), Isopropyl
Above Mentioned are Found Online


Hand Swatch
 
 Pros:

·         Its available universally
·         Comes in many variants
·         Very handy due to its design,quite slim.
·         No smell and taste
·         Glides quickly and not sticky at all.

Lip Swatch
Cons:
·         Quite Expensive
·         Leaves some sparkles behind which I don’t like
·         Its not a clear gloss.
·         Major con of this product is , it cannot be applied as a lipgloss on any lipstick coz It would change the color of your lipstick from the actual shade to some gold finish look.

Recommendation :
I would recommend this shade particularly for those who like nude lips with an illusion of sparkles.

3/5

Revlon Super Lustrous Crème Lipstick Rose Wine Review and Swatch

Hello Ladies,

Hope you are doing great !!! This is another great addition to my growing collection of Revlon lipsticks. Today is my Revlon day coz i am just sharing all my lipsticks from this particular brand . So read on to know my take on Super Lustrous Crème Lipstick  In Rose Wine.




Lets start with what Company Claims:

Revlon Super Lustrous Crème Lipstick contains an exclusive LiquiSilk formula that combines pure color with silk enriched mega moisturizers and vitamins. Your lips stay kissably conditioned for lasting smoothness while the color stays rich and true. Get irresistibly luscious lips with Super Lustrous Lipstick.



Ingredients of Revlon Super Lustrous Crème Lipstick  :
Trioctyldodecyl Citrate, Ozokerite, Polybutene, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Octyldodecyl Neopentanoate, Pentaerythrityl Tetraisostearate, C10 30 Cholesterol/Lanesterol Esters, Bis Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate 2, Cera Microcristallina (Microcrystalline Wax) (Microcrystalline Wax), Capric/Caprylic Stearic Triglyceride, Beeswax (Apis Mellifera), Silica, Synthetic Wax, Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E), Ascorbyl Palmitate (Vitamin C) (Vitamin C), Aloe Vera (Aloe Barbadensis) Extract (Aloe Barbadensis), Serica Ingredients Poudre de Soie (Silk Powder), Pentaerythrityl Tetraethylhexanoate, Caprylyl Glycol, 1,2 Hexanediol, Mica, Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Iron Oxides (CI 77491, 77492, 77499), Red 33 Lake (CI 17200), Yellow 5 Aluminum Lake (CI 19140), Yellow 6 Aluminum Lake (CI 15985) (CI 15985), Blue 1 (CI 42090) (CI 42090), Red 6 Lake (CI 15850), Red 7 Lake (CI 15850), Red 27 Lake (CI 45410), Bismuth Oxychloride (CI 77163) (CI 77163), Carmine (CI 75470) (CI 75470)





Price : Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick 225 Rosewine  ranges from Rs 525-550 online (Healthkart & Violet Bag) Whereas Revlon Super Lustrous 20 Cherries in the Glow is Rs 455 Online (Healthkart & Violet Bag)


My Opinion:


It has a matte formula not a shiny lip stuff, quite creamy and the lipstick runs smoothly, the staying power is for 3-4 hours although it definitely doesn't last long, specifically after you eat or drink something.These are super pigmented and give almost full coverage in 1-2 swipes. These do give a little shine to the lips since they are creamy but there is no shimmer at all. 

This color really depends on what you're wearing it with, if you are wearing black or any dark colors, then it would awaken you and would give a great pop of color but if you are wearing it with lighter colors then I would be unpleasant and very unnatural-looking shade of coral.

For me these shades look good in winters or fall but not in summers or spring.

Below the picture is without any gloss





And here I have applied Revlon Super Lustrous Lip-gloss in Shade 20 Cherries in the Glow




I have been using Revlon Super Lustrous Lip-gloss in Shade 20 Cherries in the Glow since long and this particular lip-gloss can be applied by itself also..Sometimes if in a hurry even if I am not applying any Lipsticks I just apply this gloss and it really gives my lips super glossy finish. I am gonna continue to buy that product. It’s a bit expensive for a gloss but I really get compliments after applying it.

My Likes on Lipstick:
Large number of shades available in it, suiting all age groups and skin tones
The formula is quite creamy
No shimmer but gives a shine due to the creamy formula
Love the Packaging
Easy available Worldwide

My Dislikes on Lipstick.
It tends to dry my lips so I need to apply a lip gloss on top of it or a coat of lip balm first
Not Long Lasting
Bit Expensive

Would I recommend:
Yes, everyone should include at least one shade of these lipsticks in your vanity.

Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter - Red Velvet review and swatch


Hello Ladies,

It seems today I am going to review only lipsticks. My lipstick collection consists of a lot of reds, corals, nudes and neutrals. So, here is one product which is most commonly used and loved by millions of people. It’s the product from my favorite brand Revlon.

I am sure by now everyone is familiar with my love and affection for the brand which means that all the products made-up by this brand is better than the previous one and you cannot get enough of it.

Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter – 040 Red Velvet



I already have one Lip Butter in Pink Truffle, click here for the review

What Revlon Says:

Hydrating mango, Shea and coconut butter formula boosts lip moisture
Pampering gel formula provides super charged hydration and glides on lips buttery smooth
Sheer to medium colour with buttery shine
Available in 20 luscious shades
Gives balm like feel to lips, making lips feel soothed, pampered, and conditioned


My opinion:

This is a beautiful deep, creamy red that I think could work on both warm and cool tone skin colors. I think this is a really pretty color, a neutral red, which is hard to find. Believe me. This is not very long lasting. This color will probably suit almost all complexions -- I think it is gorgeous & suits my olive/pale skin (& brown hair; brown or green eyes).




My Likes:

·         Nice deep red
·         Buildable color it isn't drying and it doesn't settle into the cracks of your lips like most matte lipsticks do
·         The color is gorgeous and rich.
·         The formula is mouth-watering and moisturizing!
·         It's like a gloss and a lipstick all in one. 
·         High class casing with quilted-pattern tube.
·         No scent.







My Dislikes:

·         I needed to touch up after few hours, but I didn't expect this to be long-lasting anyway since it's a tinted balm.
·         Bit expensive for product which is not long lasting.
·         The consistency of this lip balm is quite soft; do not expose it to [too much] heat or it will get really messy


Would Recommend:
I give Revlon an extra star for making these lipsticks because it has no taste and smell.
I love Revlon Colorburst Lip Butters since for people with lighter lips can use them as a lipstick and for people like me with pigmentation on their lips can use this both as a lipstick and a lip gloss. I say it’s a must have makeup product!

Revlon ColorStay Soft & Smooth Lip colors Review and Swatch


Hello Ladies,

Hope you all are doing fabulous!!

I had been on a trip last week while waiting at the airport I was just having a quick look at Revlon Counter at Muscat Duty free, I came across this Revlon ColorStay Soft and Smooth Lipcolors 4 in 1 Pack and I got so attracted that without wasting any time I bought it.





What company says:

Full coverage lipstick with a soft-shine finish that lasts for hours Soft Flex TM Comfort technology for comfortable creamy color that glides on smoothly Vitamin E and Aloe.

EXPERT TIPS: To create the perfect pout, define lips by applying your choice of ColorStay lipliner to the natural line of your lips. Continue by applying your favorite ColorStay Soft & Smooth lipcolor directly to your lips for full coverage color that lasts all day

Features:

What makes Revlon's Soft and Smooth collection so great is that the long wearing lipstick formula does not require two steps to apply. It looks like a regular lipstick and acts like one, too--except that it lasts about four to five hours without having to touch up. It also has a semi-matte finish so it looks great on anyone and never looks too caked up or too dry.

Another great thing about Revlon's Soft and Smooth lip colors is that there is a color for everyone. The collection holds just about any basic color that one might look for when hunting for a lip color. There are a good handful of natural nudes, bronzed chocolates, pinks, berries, and reds.

I bet you won’t be disappointed, but your lips will look irresistible for hours and the application and wear is so easy!



Price: Pack of 4 in 13 RO. Omani Rials (Rs 1800 Approx)

This Pack consists of 4 lipcolors

·         Satin Rosewood 295 ( Pink with purple undertone)
·         Smooth Nude 350 ( Nude with little shimmer)
·         Rich Raisin 230 (Rusty Red with brown shimmery undertone)
·         Pink Indulgence 360 (Pink with a pop)



Ingredients



Contains/Contient: Isododecane, Trimethylsiloxyphenyl Dimethicone, Polyethylene, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Vp/Eicosene Copolymer, Cetyl Peg/PPG-10/1 Dimethicone, Hexyl Laurate, Polyglyceryl-4 Isostearate, Ozokerite, Tocopheryl Acetate, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Parfum (Fragrance), BHT, Caprylyl Glycol, 1,2-Hexanediol. All Shades May Contain [+/-: Mica, Titanium Dioxide (Ci 77891), Iron Oxides (Ci 77491, 77492, 77499), Yellow 5 Lake (Ci 19140), Red 6 Lake (Ci 15850), Red 7 Lake (Ci 15850), Carmine (Ci 75470), Bismuth Oxychloride (Ci 77163), Red 27 (Ci 45410), Red 33 (Ci 17200), Blue 1 (Ci 42090), Yellow 6 (Ci 15985), Red 21 (Ci 45380), Orange 5 (Ci 45370)].









What I love:

·         It gives a sheer wash of color that can be built to even out the pigmentation of your lips.
·         It's got a light sweet scent and a little bit of superfine shimmer that you can't feel.
·         The colors are so pretty that It brightens up my skin texture and makes me look more awake.
·         It looks even prettier with gloss on top


Loads of colors to select from


What I hate:

·         I am not sure but these variants of Revlon are not available in India
·         I don't like the packaging much though, they are longer and slightly slimmer than most regular lipsticks .

Would I recommend?

These are a fairly good standard lipstick, moreover there is nothing extraordinary & super amazing.
I'd buy again, but only some selective.

Thanks for reading me, please do leave suggestions and comments

Revlon Just Bitten Balm Stain in Lovesick Pasionee


Hey Ladies,

Hope you all are doing well!! How did the Monday after a long weekend go? Mine passed really fast...Everyone now days are wild about Revlon Just Bitten Lip Stains. Revlon has come up with some pretty new and vibrant shades. So my pick of the day is Love Sick Passionnee.




Product I am gonna review now is Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm stain 020-Lovesick Passionnee I have also got one more shade i.e. Crush Beguin (Click here for the review)

Let’s begin with what Revlon Claims

Company Claims:
·         Lightweight Lip stain + Moisturizing Balm
·         100% of women who tried it felt their lips were instantly moisturized with a soft stain of color
·         Retractable chubby crayon, no sharpener required
·         It's a pampering balm fused with a lightweight lip stain in an adorable chubby crayon. 
·         Just Bitten Kissable ™ Balm Stain gives softer, smoother lips with a perfect flush color that lasts hour after hour.



Price: Rs 600/- for 0.09 oz (2.7 g)


My Take on the Product:

I actually went to buy Honey but was not available Perhaps this was the color I chose.The color of this shade is bright pink on my lips...i love this color but when I saw the packaging I thought it would be a bit lighter than it actually is.



As said earlier also the fragrance is sort of Minty, a menthol types which lightens in few mins.

The stick is quite easy to apply, since it is a stain so we have to apply it properly just to ensure that you stay within your lip line.


The formula is light, moisturizing and quite easy to wear; you can easily find the dupes of this color.
I have a bit of a love hate rapport with stains - I love their staying power and their color durability. But i don't like the way they can dry out your lips and leave a kind of patchy look as the color descends into dry spots.
I actually favor having the stain and balm in two separate applicators. Though I do love products that come in these handy crayon like containers, they are just so travel friendly also no lip liner is required for these stains.


Would I recommend?

I definitely would as I myself was trying to lay my hands on the shade Honey…but I really would love to try some other brands like Maybelline and Color bar.
