I seldom buy anything on impulse but I find pink lipsticks irresistible. When I went to SM's 3 day sale last week, I bought several makeup products and that includes Revlon's New ColorBurst Lip Butter. It is not on sale but with SM Advantage card, it's 10% off when you pay between 10 a.m. to 12 n.n. Plus, I got an additional 5% off because my mom charged it to her BDO credit card with minimum purchase requirement of PhP5, 000. By the way, you can also opt to pay the charged amount in 3 monthly installments, 0% interest. How's that for fun shopping? lol
Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter in Sweet Tart PhP525
I was already waiting in line for my turn in one of the cashier counters in the makeup section when I saw Revlon's booth. Pressed for time, I asked the sales lady for a pink shade. I was given Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter in Sweet Tart. A swatch at the back of my hand revealed a cute shade of pink. Without even thinking twice, I got one.
the packaging looks cheap, noh?
The lipstick cap is not the usual black cover. The packaging doesn't look elegant but who cares, right?

The photo above shows a fully extended Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter. This is how much lipstick you will get in one tube.

Since I started seeing a dermatologist, I noticed that I have been using less and less makeup. Case in point, this photo above was taken before I left home on my way to the office. I don't even have a powder on. I only applied Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter in Sweet Tart. I didn't put any lip balm prior to my first application. The lipstick glides on my lips. It is really buttery soft. It is mildly scented and doesn't taste weird. I like it.
notice the chapped lower lips
I took this photo in the office after lunch that same day. After applying the lipstick for the second time around, I notice my chapped lower lip ; (

I think it would help if I put a lip balm before my second application. Was it just me? For all of you who have used this lipstick, does it also chapped your lips after your second application?
my pink obsession- Sophie Lipstick in Ice Pink, PAC in Baby Pink, Revlon in Sweet Tart and Lancome Wannabe Cream
I told you I love pink lipsticks! My collection varies from inexpensive ones like Sophie to expensive ones like Lancome lol Sometimes, I carry it all in my bag. My favorite is Lancome because it glides well and does not cause my lips to chap.

Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter is third from left. Look how soft the lipstick is, some parts have already melted after I used it as swatch at the back of my hand (see photo below).

Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter in Sweet Tart is not as pigmented as I hope it should be. I have to apply several times to bring out the color on the fourth photo. I like the shade of pink that I see though. I would just have to remind myself to put a lip balm under before my next application to avoid chapped lips.
Do you have any pink lipstick shade that you love? Please share, I would love to try it!
