wondercolourbehind a frosted window : revlon lip matte balm review

Saturday, 15 November 2014

Lipstick of all kinds just make me smile, depending on the colour though they can certainly perfect or ruin the look you aim to achieve.

Something I always try stick to is play it safe, neutral shades are most likely going to work in every situation.

With the shade perfected all that’s left is to find the faultless formula.

W7 is a matte finish rose pink lipstick which lasts, looks amazing on pale skintones all at the price of just £1.99+ makes it one for changeable lipstick wearing.

Revlon Colourburst Matte Balm in 205 Elusive £7.99 is a funny one the texture is so soft on the lips leaving a creamy hydrating yet matte look, this one is amazing and something I still can't get my head around but what it offers is stunning.

A pop of gloss is my handy hand bag essential this Barry M product is an affordable one which leaves you with a light wash of pink lasting up 2 hours looks fab as well applied over other products for a more intense look.

Natural Collection has to be one of the best affordable brands around at the moment.

I’ve been loving everything from the nail polishes to eyeliners as for the lips...

I love the moisturising qualities especially this one with formula that leaves an hydrating sheen, quite highly pigmented colour and wear up to 5 hours its certainly worth £1.99 of your money.

Moisture Shine Lipstick in Pink Mallow.

Like any other lip balms out there this L'oreal Caresse 005 is a more glorified luxurious lip butter from the packaging to the formula into application, these work for all occasions if your looking for a quick pop of colour after work or an instant refresh then these need to be in your collection.

The last revlon lip product i tried, was the balm-stain here.
Having been an avid fan of a matte finish now for some time as well as reading all about the releases it was about time i updated my lip collection for the summer months.

245 | Audacious | Coral 205 | Elusive | dusky pink

I love the contrasting colours of these balms they're definitely the perfect shades for sunny weather especially from the coral to a barely there pink lip.

Providing your lips are super smooth & soft the application of each balm will glide across leaving the lips behind with a gorgeous polished matte look, on the other hand if you haven't exfoliated prior to applying lets just say its not gonna be the best look you've tried trust me i have experienced this dreadfulness!

Enjoy a lasting hydrating feel that the matte colour balm gives, but another tip don't overload the lips with product it certainly can feel a little too gunged.

Having worn each matte burst on it's own even mixed, the longest i got away without having to reapply was around 2-3 hours, the coral balm is very much going leave behind a slight stain as it's so rich with colour.

So don't apply in a rush or on the move! Using the crayon like nib is super duper easy, glide on & Dispense using the twist up bottom if needed.

Depending on the intense look your going for the colours are somewhat build-able for even better coverage. Other than the mishap of applying to much too quickly these bad boys can not be faulted.

The collection is full of colours everyone needs or in my case just wants now i can't be without them.
Ther're also perfect heading from a day to night look just by dressing up the lips or going all out with eyes & lips.
