Revoln Matte Balms

I have a little obsession with these! I have this in Elusive which is a really nice pink that is really good for every day wear. While some matte lip products can be quite drying, I don't find these to be all that drying at all, and they have reasonably staying power - I found I was wanting to reapply after 3 hours or so, but I guess it depends on what you're doing! Over all, a really nice creamy formula, super matte finish and really pretty colours - I'll definitely be buying a couple more colours!

#260 SHOWY FLAMBOYANTE

I was lucky enough to be part of a training process with Revlon where they gifted me products and colors suited to me.

I received this gorgeous shocking pink Matte Balm and absolutely loved everything about it.

I love the convenient pen and the shape of the lip color.. It makes applying really bright bold colors a breeze without the need of a lip brush or lip pencil. The range is gorgeous there is literally a color for everyone.

It has a pleasant mint taste/tingle which gives the sensation/feeling of fresh breath and just a general wake up every time you apply.

The pigment is fantastic and one swipe is pretty opaque.. I find a couple of swipes and its bound to last.. You need to make sure however that you don't have residue of balm or anything on your lips before applying and also give yourself a decent amount of time before eating or drinking otherwise you will be reapplying more than you need to. I discovered this from trial and error. Now I make sure I allow at least half an hour for it to dry onto the lips before eating or drinking and it lasts around 4 hours before I need a touch up!

I cannot recommend these enough and will be buying more colors!

Tips: Apply this ahead of time before eating or drinking.. You will get a lovely non drying lip color that lasts!

Also ask your Revlon counter to help you find colors that suit you.. They have recently done a training process which is amazing.. They literally can find you, your perfect colors!

Sounds like a great product. I have one each of the others in the range and love them. I have wondered about the matte versions. Thanks for your review. I will now see if I can find a colour I love in the range.

Favourites

These lip balm lip stains are awesome the formula makes them so buttery and easy to apply. I love how the packaging looks like a big crayon. There are also so many colours to choose from which makes it great for every skin tone! They last hours on end even when going out to eat or just for a day out! I already recommend to all my friends because I just love them that much.

Tips: Don't forget to exfoliate your lips or the dry patches will show where your lips are peeling.

in love with matte

I LOVE these matte lipsticks! The colour range is incredible, I now own 3 of this range and all suit my skin and eyes. The buttery shea texture is nourishing and soft so no need for a balm underneath. The colour lasts for hours and I only need to reapply after eating a meal and its' pigmentation is amazing. The colours are so bold and dense, and people always comment on my lippy when I wear it out. I feel the pepperminty scent it has naturally plumps my lips which is always a bonus. It has cute and handy packaging that fits nicely in the handbag or evening purse, and I like that they are the the same colour on the packaging as the colour of the lippy so there's no mixing them up when you're in a rush. They are reasonably priced, average about $22 which I think is fine to pay for a product that really works and looks gorgeous and finished. The ONLY downside to this lippy is that it starts off pointed, which is perfect to give that defined cupids bow, and as it wears down it becomes rounded like a normal lippy so is harder to complete the bow.

Super moisturising!

First off - I love these!

I got three of these from Farmers - two of them in the matte and one of the lacquers. They were Buy 2 get the 3rd free which I felt was a great deal. The matte shades I purchased were 210 - Unapologetic and 220 - Showy.

I find these are very moisturising on my lips. Others have said the balms dry out their lips but it is the opposite for me. I like the texture of them and they smell minty which I also love. The mint also feels like it gives you a little bit of plump to your lips as well as often after doing my first application my lips tingle a wee bit.

They are so easy to apply, they dry fairly quickly and the formula is buttery and when you rub your lips together it feels good to me. They are very opaque, you don't need to do more than 1-2 swipes. The balms last a while on your lips, I usually will go to work and only have to reapply after eating lunch, they last while I drink a cup of tea or coffee.

The colours are gorgeous, I will repurchase and have more shades on my wishlist already!

Tips: Exfoliate your lips with the Lush Lip Scrub before hand to get rid of loose skin as this shows up being matte.

Must Have

I have two 215 shameless desinvolte(purple) and 225 sultry sulfureuse(rosy-mauve). These would have to be my go to lip products, I purchased them when unichem pharmacy had a two for $30 sale. I've had them for about four months and I am absolutely going to repurchase when they run out. Such a creamy formula and the staying power is amazing, I would put it on about 7:30 in the morning and not need to reapply till about 2:30 in the afternoon. There also seems to be a great range of colours available. Definitely something you need to purchase for yourself.

Tips: Exfoliate lips before use.

A great lip product!

I really like the matte balm crayon I have in shade 220 Showy Flamboyante. The colour is a beautiful light and bright pink. The durability of wear of this product is pretty good. Because it is a matte balm the wear is great and I am not reapplying it as much as glossy finish alternatives. I love the texture and consistency of this crayon. It glides on amazingly easily and feels nice on but I find by the end of the day my lips are a bit dry but I find this will all of my matte lip products this one is not the most drying though. These are amazingly good for the reasonable price and have such a good colour range available I really recommend these.

Affordable, long-lasting pop of colour.

I was ever so excited for the Revlon Colorburst Matte Balms to launch in New Zealand as I am a big fan of bright, bold colours with a matte finish. This colour range has something for everyone, from a deep purple to a neon coral. My personal favourite and most worn colour is 'Showy,' a bright pink.

The name and packaging of the product turn these colours from a standard lipstick to a chubby crayon with the word 'balm' suggesting sheer, moisturizing colour. However on the lips these really could be a standard (but still beautiful) lip colour as the application is surprisingly precise and the colours are bold and long-lasting.

The matte formula is great for those with oily skin or anyone who prefers a matte finish to their look. The colour doesn't change during the day and they are pretty hard to budge. I don't struggle with dry lips and only experienced dryness after wearing the matte balm three days in a row. The colour can be reapplied once during the day, however a third application looks thick and gunky so I did have to remove the lip colour and then start fresh. Overall the Revlon Colorburst Matte Balms are a great product for anyone who doesn't suffer from dry lips and is looking for a pop of colour.

Tips: Be generous with a good lip balm at the end of the day after removing the product.

Revlon Colorburst Matte Balm

I have recently purchased many of these matte balms, and they are definitely some of my favourite lip products. These stay on for 3-4 hours and moisturise and hydrate my lips. They come in various colours and add a pop of colour to your lips. I find this product very easy to work with and would definitely repurchase.

Love

I love this product. I haven't always been comfortable applying and wearing lipstick and this is a great alternative. This is long wearing and affordable. There's so many colours. I now own three and will continue to buy this product.
