Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick Review

I have owned a few of them over the years, including the Fire & Ice (their classic best selling red?) and a few pinky ones that I ended up giving away because I couldn't use them. My last purchase was the 631 Luminous Pink (I have it sitting in my drawer, feel free to come to my place and check it if you need proof that I really own it!)

Despite the creamy texture and the huge range of interesting (& tempting!) colours in various finishes, I don’t really like the taste nor the smell of them. I always ended up wearing them for a few occasions only, then they would sit unused in my drawer. The only way of making them usable is layering them on top of other lip products. One of them have even ended up as a crayon as I really couldn't stand the taste.

I probably am being stupid for being sucked in to buy it every now and then, secretly hoping that Revlon might have changed the formulation!

I purchased mine off nz sale for $9 each, I only bought two in the shades pearl 485 raspberry freeze and pear 455 paparazzi pink. Both really nice colour and when I first got them I would wear them all the time. The stay power is pretty good but not as good as other lipsticks I have tried. The packaging is also nice but I find the lid pop off very easily which isn't something you want to happen while its in your bag. The formula is one I find i really have to drag across my lips but once on feels nice. Once my lipstick collection grew I found myself not using these as much.

I have this in "just enough buff" and was disappointed to find its barely visible on the lips, just adds a bit of shine and a pearly look. It does feel nice once applied but the lack of pigmentation was disappointing at first. I use this lipstick when I'm doing a very natural look and just want my lips to look done.

The Super Lustrous Lipstick is beautifully smooth and easy to apply, but the only down side is that it doesn't last very long at all. It does need to be longer lasting though.

Perhaps I got an old formula before they infused with all the good sounding moisturizers. I just got at the make up sale for $5 and in very violet. The colour is very dark almost black I was hoping it was not that dark but dark maroon and burgundy lipstick is going to be really fashionable this season apparently so I guess I can lighten it up with another colour mixed in with it. It felt dry on my lips and made the imperfection of dry lips obvious on me I will double check but it is definatley revlon. I have another revlon lipstick in a different shade and I find it much nicer on the lips. Update I now have a pink shade of this lip stick and its wonderfully hydrating like a balm so my rating goes up for this the hydration did soak up into my lips and leave colour pigments behind after a few hours but its a great improvement on the formula

I brought this in the shade 643 satin plum. I don't suit bright stand out colours and this is very pretty and adds just a touch of colour.

The tube is pretty standard black with a gold band around the top of the base with Revlon written on it. The lid is pretty cool the very top is clear so you can see what colour it is perfect if you own a bunch of these and are and organised and orderly you can see from the top without going through everyone of them looking for the right colour written in the bottom.

The texture of this lipstick is very creamy and moisturising. It glides on easily when I apply it. It's quite a glossy lipstick I find it easy to build up more. The colour is very light plum It doesn't really have the staying power it's fine if your not eating or drinking but it seemed every time I had a sip of my drink I had to apply more. Overall though it's a nice lipstick

I have the Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in the Creme shade Va Va Violet. The first thing I noticed after using this colour for the first time is that it rubs off very easily and I constantly had to reapply it during the day, this was very noticeable against my pale skin and lips. I went for a dark purple shade after seeing Lorde in a similar colour but not being able to afford MAC at the time. It says the RRP is $12.99 but I paid $24.50. Not sure if it was the store or the brand with that price though. Overall I think the colour and shade are worth it in the end.

I have this in a couple of colours as they are all really pretty. For me it is moisturising and feels nice on the lip, but doesnt seem to be very long wearing.

This lipstick applies very easily and smoothly. I have the raspberry bite -745 its a nice red/dark pink color! i use chopstick or lip balm before hand to get a better result. there are better lipsticks that i have tried but this is very good either way.

I got a brown in this range free with a make up offer from Revlon table at farmers. very cool colour and very good recipe. it suited me but brown Is just not my thing
