I’ve been on the lookout for a hydrating lipstick for
such a long time as in the past most lipsticks I’ve tried have been extremely
drying, which isn’t helpful considering my lips have the tendency to be dry
anyway. I’d heard amazing reviews of the Revlon lip butters from the US so I
was excited to finally get my hand on some!
The two colours I picked up were number 005 in Sugar
Frosting and number 055 in Cupcake. Sugar Frosting is a sheer nude and Cupcake
is bright light pink. The application is beautiful, it just glides on your lips
and is instantly moisturising. Although some colours come out sheer you can
build them up by applying more coats to your lips leaving a shiny, healthy
finish. The staying power of these lip balms is about one to two hours, but
with such an easy application they are quick to apply on the go without the
hassle of needing a mirror! However! They do have a tendency to melt easily so
be careful where you store them!

Although not as affordable as they are in the states at
£7.99, I still feel for a drug store brand you definitely get what you pay for
and these amazing quality. Definitely going to be adding some more to my
collection! :)
