If the Fall 2014 runways are any indicator, it's not going anywhere for the rest of the year. It's been showing everywhere so far.
This is where Revlon comes in. Glowing skin and strong brows are the perfect backdrop to a fresh lip!
A year or two ago, Revlon launched the Just Bitten Balm Stain Crayon. It was such a great product, that it inspired some additions to the line.
Welcome to the world of ColourBurst Matte Balm and Laquer Balm!
Both formulas have a "Triple Butter Complex", which is a combination of shea, mango and coconut butters for a super hydrating and smooth feel on the lip. The Laquer Balms have a high-shine semi-opaque finish to them. The Matte Balms have a velvety appearance that is quite opaque. The Laquer does feel more moisturising than the Matte, as you would expect, but they both do feel quite good on.
Each formula comes in ten shades that co-ordinate with it's counter-part. Start with the Matte, add the Laquer, and you get a lovely intense colour!
I have been lucky enough to have been given two of each formula in two of the best lip trends of this year. A set of nude, and a set of orange shades.
The shade on the left is the Matte Balm in Audacious, on the right is the Laquer in Tease.
The shade on the left is the Matte Balm in Complex, on the right is the Laquer in Ingenue.
Two of the best looks from the Academy Awards on Saturday had lip looks which were similar to two of these balms. The Matte Balm in Complex was very similar to Olivia Wilde's mod peachy-nude matte lip. Lupita Nyong'o had a gorgeous shiny coral orange lip, which looks close to the Laquer Balm in Tease. Both are hot trends right now!
Has anyone tried these balms yet? Love them as much as I do?
Who had the best Oscar look?
So much pretty!
