Revlon Lip Butter - Lollipop

If you haven't heard of Revlon Lip Butters by now... well you just did. They have been a HUGE hit in the beauty community, and I originally heard about it online from a YouTube video. I made a mental note that I needed to try it, but I just recently remembered about it!

I feel like Lip Butter was an interesting yet misleading name, since it brings to mind a small tub of lip balm or something, but don't be mistaken, these are indeed lipsticks.

These provide sheer to medium pigmentation, depending on which color you buy, and one of the reasons why they are so popular is because they are pretty moisturizing for a lipstick! By moisturizing, I wouldn't use this in place of a lip balm, but it doesn't dry out my lips like most lipsticks do.

Here is Revlon Lip Butter in Lollipop. I have a love/hate relationship with packaging. I love the translucent, jelly-like case with the quilted imprint. It makes them really adorable when they're displayed in a row, like popsicles! :9 The thing I hate most about the packaging is the little small clear window they have on top of the tube, most likely for you to see the color, but in my opinion it cheapens the overall look of the lipstick.

Revlon, why did you do this?!

The product itself is a inclined circle, which I was kind of ehh about because I prefer my lipsticks to have a point for more precise application, but it definitely isn't a deal breaker.

To me, it swatches & wears more brighter and less dark than it is out of the tube. Here it looks like a dark, plummy pink, but when applied, it's definitely a hot, lollipop pink... watermelon flavored lollipop.

Here it is on, I need to work on my camera skills (or lack thereof)

And here it is on, compared to the rest of my face.

Like I mentioned earlier, it looks completely different from what the actual product looks like (guess that little packaging window is pretty ineffective!). It's a fun, bright pink which just SCREAMS spring & summer!

If you're looking to buy these lip butters... be patient! Lucky for me, I found some on my first try at Target, but they were only about 6 tubes left of the whole display! TIP: Since these are relatively new, and Super popular, stores usually have two displays of the lip butters. 1 in the regular Revlon spot, and 1 usually in the center where they showcase seasonal & new arrivals. I've been to about 5 stores, and have left empty handed at times.

They run about $7.49 - $8.49 depending where you buy them, I know my local CVS was having a BOGO 50% off Revlon lip, which explained why there was NOTHING left. :(

Hopefully this helps out with your Lip Butter search! I will post the other swatches hopefully within the next couple of days. :)

Now I should sleep soon cos I need to wake up for the Jason Wu x Target collection in the morning!

à tout à l'heure! (see you later),
