Phew !! :exhausted: What a list !! And what shades…I want them all ! Check the product here

I have no words to describe this lipstick actually ! In one word its AWESOME..!

It has this long slender black square packaging..and shaped as a slim lipstick..super creamy..quite pigmented..and it has no smell at all..

Rose Brown as the name suggests is a medium pink with a hint of brown…a perfect MLBB for me..I am wearing it each and every day..I am so addicted to it..

Here is the swatch..

And here is how it looks on me..

Pros:

1. Super creamy..I just love the texture..as good as a lip balm.

2. Its quite pigmented and I need just one swipe and can build up the color..but the shade is such that it never looks too bright.

3. The staying power is pretty good..and it leaves behind a tint even after a full meal.

4. No fragrance.

5. I am so in love with the shade..its perfect for Asian skin tones..and if you, like me, are addicted to MLBB shades..then this one is made for you 🙂

6. I loved the entire collection of shades..and also that it has more of pinks, corals, rosy browns and nude pinks and browns.

7. It does not settle into fine lines and gives a creamy finish to the lips.

Cons:

1. It gets collected at the outer edges..a common problem with these slim lipsticks.

2. Not available here..:(

I cannot think of any other cons..I am so in love with it..This is surely a must try..And it has 97% recommendation by users on its site too..Apart from Rose Brown, I also like Twilight, Uber Pink, Pink Buff, Coral Pink…sigh..so many !

The shade I am reviewing is 075 Peach..its a true nude peach shade with some fine shimmer…which is not much visible but gives glossy effect to the lips.

Revlon Colorburst Lipsticks have this nice packaging..a rectangular shaped black case with criss cross patterns and the color of the shade it is on top. It has Revlon embossed on the lipstick bullet.

These are very creamy and moisturising and you can easily skip a lip balm with it. They have a slightly weird smell..but not too strong or bothering.

Now I had heard mixed reviews about the shade Peach…coz it washes out some..so I was not too sure..but I loved the shade so much that I could not resist getting it and I am glad I did…it does not wash me out at all..instead it gives a soft peachy sheen to lips..and in one swipe its quite a MLBB for me !

But as its a light shade..it would not cover pigmentation if you have pigmented lips..with one swipe it gives a soft peachy sheen and its quite buildable…and with 2-3 swipes it gives you perfect peachy lips. But the staying power of these is ok..it stays for 2-3 hours without eating or drinking..and lesser with it..but leaves a tint behind.

And how it looks on me…

Pros:

1. Very creamy and moisturising.

2. These are quite buildable…and darker shades are more pigmented.

3. I love the Peach shade..and would surely recommend it if you are around NC 35-37 or below…gives a nice peachy sheen to lips.

4. This does not settle into fine lines.

5. I liked the black case and packaging.

6. These are quite sturdy and easy to carry around.

7. Has a shelf life of 3 years.

8. Feels very light on lips..you would not even feel you are wearing a lipstick.

Cons:

1. Expensive for a lipstick but though these are very good in quality.

2. This shade would not show up on pigmented lips and would wash out people above NC 40.

3. 3.7g of quantity offered is quite less compared to other lipsticks which are normally 4 or 4.2g

Overall I quite like them and love the Peach shade in particular. I am eyeing Blush next..;)
