Revlon Colorburst Matte Balms Shameless & Striking, $6.99 at Bed Bath & Beyond
Yesterday I showed you the beautiful Maybelline Color Elixir’s I picked up last month and today I want to show you the Colorburst Matte Balms! I was so excited about these coming out. There were some amazing shades in the display but I picked up two of the glossy ones and two mattes. I call that self control ha!
I wanted the matte colors to be like my favorite mattes ever from Tarte. The good news is that they kind of are! My favorites from Tarte are Lively and Envy. They feel fantastic on the lips but are $24 each! A less expensive alternative is appreciated and some good color choices also. Turns out thats exactly what Revlon has for us! Ready to see this…your going to notice a problem I have with the red but here goes!
Shameless #215
There are no words. I love this purple. It’s the smoothest darn thing I’ve put on my lips in a while. This shade goes on like butter!
Striking #240
This hasn’t been so easy to use. For some reason this red isn’t smooth. It’s heartbreaking. It’s spotty on my lips and no matter how I prep my lips it’s no good. I end up glossing it up to make the thang work. Oh well its a beautiful color though.
So there you have it. Go get Shameless right away! They both smell minty and taste that way also. I don’t have to touch up often at all. Just once a day if that. The color lasts really well.
I picked up four of these this weekend! Shameless is a great color!
Such a beautiful purple!
What is the difference between colorburts balms and kissable balm stains or is there?
With these Colorburst Matte Balms its just the matte finish that is different. And Shameless stained my lips a little but not much at all.
I’m still looking for these in my area. Sadly, my Bed, Bath and Beyond does not have a beauty section. Where did you find these? I want that purple one!
Bed Bath & Beyond, usually in posts I put the price and where I got it right under the first picture.
Ha! Reading is fundamental. :). I’m going to hunt for these. They look great on you.
:O the purple one!! Can’t wait for these to come to Canada! Thanks for the swatches xox
Holy Purple Batman!!!
Why aren’t these permanent!?!?! Grrr curse you revlon (and loreal for that matter! I just want a permanent drugstore matte balm, is that too much to ask!?) Lovely post as always
