I thought I’d take a few snaps of the colours I’ve got and give my two penny’s worth in a little review so you all know what to expect when they hit the UK shores from March 14th.
Firstly, I love the packaging. There have been mixed feelings about the colour-coordinated, sheer plastic lipstick tubes online, but I’m a big fan. I think they are cute and fun, but still a little chic with the Chanel-esque quilted effect that Revlon are so fond of replicating. They also have clear caps, so you can see the product through the top, a great feature if you have a lot of lipstick and want to be able to see what’s what!
I have five of the 20 shades (from left) Cupcake, Strawberry Shortcake, Peach Parfait, Berry Smoothie and Lollipop.
The consistency is quite unique. They feel like a smooth balm to apply, but the pigmentation is that of a sheer lipstick. Having said that, some of the shades are more pigmented than others, some more akin to a standard lipstick, which is pretty impressive when you consider the super hydrating gel/balm like formulation.
A lot of the shades also have subtle shimmer in them which I wasn't expecting (Peach Parfait especially - it reminds me of a lipstick version of NARS' famous Orgasm blush)
Considering they contain mango, shea and coconut butter, I was expecting them to taste a little better, but surprisingly they aren’t particularly scented at all.
The staying power isn’t outstanding, but then again I don’t think you would expect it to be considering the formulation. The shade selection is fantastic, ranging from uber-pale pinks and lilacs, to darker browns and reds. My favourite shades are without a doubt Berry Smoothie and Lollipop (the latter having absolutely amazing colour payoff!)
Overall, these are definitely worth the hype in my book. I would 100% recommend checking them out when they hit the high street in March. I would think they’ll be around the £6 mark (they are around $7 in the US) so they won’t break the bank either!
If you want more info on the Lip Butters, I’d recommend checking out my friend Ingrid (aka MisGlamorazzi)’s more in depth review on her YouTube channel
Ahh I can't wait for these to come out in the UK! Thanks for doing the swatches Fleur, I really want Strawberry Shortcake & Lollipop! xx

Oh wow, I think I'll have to get my hands on these! I don't usually wear too much lipstick since I normally prefer a more glossy lip to a matte lip, but lipgloss is never as pigmented, so this looks like the perfect in-between :)

I think these look great- I will definitely be buying a few once they're available. As long as they are mositurising then I'm not too fussed about the colour payoff or lasting power- any little colour would be a bonus! They look absolutely lush on your lips! xx

ReplyDeleteMarch the 14th? I'm up for that. Thanks for giving us a timeframe - I wasn't sure whether these would come to the UK at all!

After all this US hype with these butters i had to mail Revlon to find out if & when they'd be released here! Looking forward to the peach parfait!
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing your swatches - i cannot wait !! xx
Hi Fleur, I love your Blog, Can you have a look at mine and comment if you like :) http://deebeautyjunkie.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteBeautiful products! 'Cupcake' is my favourite shade :)
ReplyDeletehttp://underbluelights.blogspot.com/
I need Lollipop! I would've normally gone for strawberry shortcake, but seeing it on the lips, it's got to be lollipop! Loves the colour names as well!
ReplyDeletehttp://whatkatiedidx.blogspot.com/
I hope they'll be available in Poland:)
ReplyDeleteI've been meaning to pick some of these up. You're review is definitely motivating me to go pick one up. I especially like strawberry shortcake and peach parfait.
ReplyDeleteI have strawberry shortcake and absolutely love it!

Hi Fleur Love your blog! Have you tried out the new Avon Shine attract lipstick's yet? It would be great to have a comparison with the Revlon lip butters. I bought the Avon lipstick in Rose bouquet and few weeks ago and love it. It has a hydrating gel outer and a colour core and feels lovely on my lips but would be nice to get a comparison from someone we has tried the lip butters.
ReplyDeleteMega Fxy - I adore the shine attract lipsticks! I expected the outer gel to be very lipglossy (if you know what I mean) with my hair constantly stuck to it but they're totally amazing. I have the Rose Bouquet already but have ordered a couple of other shades as well.x

I love that they're not sticky and I think the colour payoff is great.
