Revlon Lip Butters





Revlon Lip Butters
Creme Brulee, Sweet tart, Peach Parfait, Gumdrop, Strawberry Shortcake, Cotton Candy, Cupcake

okay, let me just start off with the fact that i LOVE these things. I am not a big lipstick girl by any means. I feel that they dry my lips out way to much and nobody likes the look of dried out lips, lets be honest. These are amazing products though! These honestly made me change my mind about lip products all together. They're called lip butters for a reason. The texture of these are so buttery (go figure) and leave your lips so moisturized. Unlike most lip balm type products though, these are crazy pigmented. Literally like nothing i've ever tried before. I only have 7 out of the 20 shades they offer, but i do plan on purchasing more.  These retail at about $7.50 a piece and you can find them at your local drugstore or places like Ulta. (right now Ulta is having a buy one get one 50% off of revlon products so go get some!) Here are some swatches and descriptions of the colors i have:


Creme Brulee
Creme Brulee is more on the matte side for the revlon lip butters. Obviously they all have some shine to them but unlike most of the rest, this one doesn't have much sparkle to it. Its  really beautiful neutral brown color thats a little more on the milky side than a true brown.



Sweet Tart
Sweet tart is a glossy hot pink color thats very pigmented. A little goes a long way with this stuff. This color is definitely more of a red-pink than a true pink which makes it perfect for summer!


Cotton Candy
This is by far one of my favorite shades in the bunch. It is definitely my most used. Cotton candy is a sheer light pink with lots of shimmer. Its a great everyday color in my opinion, if your into pink lips. Literally goes with every makeup look.


Peach Parfait
Peach Parfait is a peachy-pink color with lots of golden shimmer. It honestly is verging on a coral color but not quite. This color looks so pretty for summer time. 


Gumdrop
This is one of the most unique shades i own. This color is a lilac purple with lots of shimmer as well. Don't let this picture fool you, its alot more opaque on the lips. 


Strawberry Shortcake
Strawberry shortcake is your typical barbie doll pink. Its very creamy and very pigmented. It has alot of silver-ish shimmer to it but really is a true pink.


Cupcake
Cupcake is another one of my favorites. Its a beautiful pink with blue undertones. This is another one thats super pigmented. You really only need a little bit of this stuff or it can give your lips a washed out affect.
