Hi Ladies!
I've recently picked up some of the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Lipstains from CVS. Everyone on YouTube has been going absolutely bonkers over these bad boys, so I thought I'd jump the bandwagon and see what the hype is all about. There are 8-10 lip colors in the collection, ranging from pinks to nudes. I picked up 4, in the colors 25 Sweetheart Valentine, 40 Rendezvous, 20 Lovesick, and 30 Smitten, as shown in order of appearance in the swatch down below..
These 4 colors are the ones that I would find myself wearing the most, and the ones that I originally thought would be a bit more daring. In the container, they all look to be extremely pigmented. While that is true, they all come out a lot sheerer than intended when you swatch or wear them.
If I had to separate the colors into "Daytime" or "NightTime" colors, I would say that 25 Sweetheart Valentine and 40 Rendezvous are more young, playful, "daytime" colors, while 20 Lovesick and 30 Smitten are more mature, a bit darker, and more appropriate for night time.
These colors go on like lipgloss, are as pigmented as lipstick, and last as long as a lipstain. Talk about a triple threat!
These colors retail for $9.99 a pop, compared to Mac Lipsticks which are $14.50.
These lipstains are purse and travel friendly, and the caps don't randomly come off in your bag which is always nice.
However, the colors that are in this collection are similar to the regular Revlon Lipsticks and Lipbutters, so pick your colors wisely.
All in all: These are a definite steal. If you're looking for a nice flush of color, these are great. And, if you're looking for something a bit brighter, these are perfect for that as well!
They can be found where ever Revlon is sold.
