Review: Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm stain

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm stain in Cherish - £5.99

Last week, I made a trip to Boots to go and get myself one of these Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Lip stains (such a long name).
I was a bit overwhelmed when I got to the stand as all the packaging looked as if the shades were very similar but I as soon as I swatched them once, twice, some three times up my arm I realised what a variety there was. I went safe with this one and brought a baby pink. I knew that pink lip shades suit my pale skin.
When you apply them they go on so glossy and then wear off to a stain which really is a stain. They last so long on the lips.
The only negative I have is the smell of them. It reminds me of some what between mint, tea tree and something else I just cant tell but within a couple of minutes of applying the smell fades away.
They are of course comparable to the Clinique Chubby sticks, which I haven't had chance to try out yet. Although, I don't think I will if Revlon bring over some more shades from the US. The packaging is really easy to use, as you don't have to mess around sharpening it, they just simply twist up.
I also went back to boots the next day and brought one in the shade Rendezvous which is a peach. Another thing I like with these lip products is that you can apply a gloss over the top.

Anyone else got any other shades? Think I also go safe with my choices.

    This looks so pretty on you :) I swatched the orange one of this today but I didn't find it was very pigmented which is a shame! xx

  10. I got 3 shades that I'm in love with. And I've tried Tarte (another similarity) and Clinique and both were much more expansive in comparison's to Revlon's and the quality fades in comparison too. I too have reviewed it on my blog simply because I'm absolutely in love with this product. Have you tried the lip butter? Don't you think this is better?


    I didn't really get the smell :/ but maybe cause it does fade so it doesn't really bother me. Rendezvous is a great choice for summer. That was my first color and I went back to buy two more for the upcoming fall/winter when I'll really need this product.

  11. I am a big fan of Clinique chubby sticks and these look pretty amazing too! I hope they'll still have them in December when I go to London, haha.
