Swatch of The Day - Revlon Colorburst Matte Balm




Hello! It's been a long time! I have missed blogging. My work life has been quite hectic.

Today I bring you swatches of two new Matte Balm from Revlon's Colorburst line. I have quickly fallen in love with these lip balms. It's hard for me to pass up matte lipstick and when I saw that they had a purple one I knew I had to act fast! Today I bring you swatches of Sultry and Shameless.


Sultry

Shameless

» Price -  $9.98 (I paid at CVS which is a lot higher than other places such as Walgreens, Rite Aid)
» Availability - Drugstores
» Overall Rating - Love! These are very reminiscent of the Tarte Lip Surgence Matte Lipsticks. They are retractable and have a soft peppermint taste. Easy to glide on, nourishing and great pigmentation. Sultry is a perfect everyday color that you can pair with any eye look.  Shameless is a vibrant purple that has been hard for me to find for a drugstore lipstick. I did have to layer it a tad bit around the center of my lips to even it out. I can not wait to collect all of the colors. I have been reading from various places that these are permanent which makes me really happy! I recommend finding the best price around your local drugstores before buying these.

Swatch of the Day - Tarte LipSurgence Matte Lip Tint in Exposed





» Price -  $24.00
» Availability Tarte, Sephora
» Overall Rating - Amazing lasting power. I can eat and drink with ease, this color does not budge. It is slightly darker than my natural lip color so it gives the illusion of fuller lips. It has a peppermint taste to it that is not overpowering. I love that it is retractable with no need for a separate sharpener. Can't wait to try other colors!

Totally Loving - NARS Pure Matte Lipstick




Hey loves! I had to share with you all a new found love that I have. NARS Pure Matte Lipstick in Carthage has recently won my heart over. I have been on the hunt for the perfect matte pink lipstick for the longest time. I first saw this lipstick worn on one of the writers at hellogiggles.com and I knew I just had to have it. You all should know my love for matte lipsticks by now right? This is the perfect shade of pink! I am going to try out all of the different colors that NARS has to offer. 





» Price -  $25.00
» Availability - Sephora.com
» Overall Rating - This is the perfect pink for me. It is totally build-able so you can control how vibrant you want it to appear. This lipstick has amazing lasting time. I wore it for a long day out and it did not budge. It glides on rather smoothly. The lipstick did dry out my lips after a few hours of wear. It is a bit on the pricier side and if you are looking for less expensive dupes NYX Matte Lipsticks & Wet'N'Wild Mega Last Lip Color definitely come to mind.
