Revlon Super Lustrous Summer Lip Glosses With Swatches and Such ^__~

I'm sure all of you have seen the small Revlon display with Jessica Biel in your local drugstores featuring these glosses I am about to show you. I am also sure all you makeup fanatics have seen the review done by the gorgeous Holly Ann-Aeree as well.  And yes I know that there are plenty of people who have done reviews on them, but as a makeup blogger I just feel that I have to express and share products that I love or hate, like or dislike. 

Well...I have to say that I am in the same boat when it comes to lemming these glosses!! 
I got four out of the five, thanks to my lovely Mum, who picked two of these up for me. They run about 7-8 USD depending on what store you find them in. I think at my local CVS they were $7.99.

So what is it that I love about these glosses? *Begins to count the ways on her fingers* Haha just kidding. But seriously, these are pigmented enough to be the only thing on your lips, which I know is a big thing for us girls who are: 1)in a rush but want a nice hue on our lips 2)lazy (just sayin') 3)prefer a glossy look instead of a matte look that the lipstick gives. They are creamy and don't dry out your lips and aren't super sticky like lipglosses but not super slick either. I think they are a perfect medium.  Now this is only for these limited edition glosses. I know that there are different finishes for the regular line from Revlon and I don't know if that changes the texture of the glosses.

 The staying power I would say is a couple of hours, but I tend to lick my lips a lot. Plus I feel that the staying power of lipgloss/lipstick really depends on the person, there is definitely no set time frame. Anyway, on to the colors!



This is probably my second favorite color. I just love bright pinks!


I love the way Lilac Pastelle looks in the tube but I find it looked really streaky when I tried to take a picture of it. It's a bit sheerer than the other colors though, so that probably explains the streakiness. Nonetheless I still think it's a beautiful color and like Holly said, it is the gloss version of Lavender Whip!


This is a gorgeous red. It's pigmented enough to wear alone, but sheer enough that it doesn't seem too loud. This is great for a date. It's also great to pair with a simple winged eyeliner look and also on top of Viva Glam Cyndi.

My faveeeeee-orite one. I absolutely love how this looks on me. I think this is a great color for summer, the coral just reminds me of gorgeous sunny days. I can't wait till I get tan, I think this will look great!

So ladies, if u can, snatch these up while they last! I've heard that these colors are running out fast. The next post will be about the N.Y.C. Blushable Creme Stick blushes.

  7. Oooh glad to see a swatch of the firecracker! That's the only one I see a lot of still available at Walgreens, so I wasn't sure if it was worth buying ( I got coral which I love, and the lilac which is meh). But, now I think I'll get the firecracker too!

  10. Thanks for sharing, I actually already have pink pop and coral reef, but they're sealed and all for summer, I really would like your advice though. If you do have pigmented lips, do you find it hard for them to show up, like do you have to pack it on? Because there was this other blogger and she told me pink pop and coral reef look almost the same on her pigmented lips. AND my smile went upside down haha. Thanks xx
