Revlon Lip Butter in Pink Truffle


 

So I went a bit a GIF crazy today... What do you think? I kinda like it, a bit different from the usual beauty posts out there. But onto the actual post!

Revlon lip butters. They've been out there for years now but me being me I've only just had a chance to grab one for myself. I have the shade Pink truffle and its honestly the most gorgeous brown-toned pink I've tried. You should note though that it is a lip butter so by no means should you expect a full on pigmented performance like a lip stick would offer. But nonetheless it offers enough colour to stain the lips in a flattering way.

The formula is creamy and light on the lips which is perfect for summer days where you want a hastle-free colour alternative to whack on in the mornings. Pink truffle in particular is a lovely 'nude' shade that will take you all the way through to the autumn months as it has the perfect plummy side to it. Matte-lovers should stay at bay because it's a glossy formula with the qualities of a 'vaseline-type' lip balm. 

Packaging is another winner for me! I love the chequered front almost a bit Burberry-esque and you guys know how much I love Burberry! Although it's plastic the coloured shell makes is perfect for grabbing in a rush as you won't need to faff around opening lids to see which shade it is.

Apart from that I think I have a nice product on my hands. Some people beg to differ because the colour pay-off is so subtle but personally for me that's ideal as I haven't mastered the confidence to pull off a bold lip just yet. What are your thoughts on the lip butters?

  1. Love the packaging, I agree they're a bit burberry-esque. They're so moisturising and there are so many gorgeous colours to choose from! x
