These are similar to Revlon Lip Butters in that they have a balm-like consistency. I actually thought these were lipsticks and was super-excited over the bright colors, buying them right away without doing any research on them. An impulse buy, as I am often wont to do. Though I was slightly disappointed that these weren't the opaque hot pink and orange lipsticks I was expecting, it's totally my fault for just grabbing them up and buying them without looking at the display.
On the plus side, they are sealed very well so good going there, L'Oreal. 'Preciate'cha ensuring that these are protected from the hands of the uncouth masses, thus preventing me from purchasing a contaminated product!
These have a very creamy, moisturizing consistency and the color payoff is better than I expected after I realized they were balms. They last 2-3 hours as long as you don't disturb them. They seem to be slightly less glossy than Lip Butters, IMO. I actually prefer that. I feel like they last a little bit longer as a result but not by much since they ARE still a gloss.
Blushing Sequin is a sheer, rosy pink with a hint of pinky-purple shimmer.
See Fiery Veil after the cut!
Fiery Veil is a sheer, shimmer-free medium toned orange.
I really love both of these. They are fantastic for those Summer days when you want some color but are too hot or lazy to put any real effort into your make-up, yet you don't want to look dead when you go in to work. Pretty much everyday for me lately, as it's been so incredibly hot and humid where I live.
These retail for $9.99 but I purchased them for around $7.50 (if I remember correctly) at Rite Aid. If you like Revlon Lip Butters, check these out too!
Until next time,
