I hope all is well with everyone, I just had to post during my busy schedule time, yes still planning the lil' one party :)
I had to play in my makeup in the meantime so I decided since I have been on the a lipstick love lately. I decided to share swatches of my Revlon lipstick collection. I love Revlon lipsticks and they are my second favorite drugstore lipstick brand. So I have accumulated a few from their Lustrous and Matte line during the 75% sale and on BOGO's.
Here are pictures of all the lipsticks I have swatches:

Finally huh!!!...Anyways, my favorite ones are Cocoa Craving, Fabulous Fig, Wild Orchid & Really Red. All of them are have terrific finishes and definitely look fabulous on WOC but I really hate Iced Mocha because it makes me look *dead*.
Fuchsia Fusion and Wild Orchid look similar but they have a slight difference (look closely), Wild Orchid has more purple undertone in it. One main thing I can say about these lipsticks are that they do stain your lips, yes I had popping 'red' lips after & no matter how I rubbed it off it was still red.

- They are all pigmented and the they hold on for a pretty decent time. If your looking for some lip color that will take through drinking a couple drinks, eating, smacking; this isn't what your looking for, it will stain the lips but after couple hours it will need re-application.
- They don't have any horrible odor, they are pretty much odorless IMO.
- For the prices I purchase these for they are worth it, I don't own any MAC lipsticks (can you believe it), so I couldn't compare texture wise. But in the case of NYX round lipstick they are very much comparable to some of the colors and may be even better in texture .
Be fabulous!!...I'll be back for good soon! :)

ReplyDelete@Marce--- sry to hear that dear, I try to get them on BOGO or 75% off sale (mostly this).
fab swatches!! thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeletenice post! you have a nice collection of the Revlon lippies going... I love your picks!
ReplyDeleteMy fav lipstick is MAC with Revlon being a close second. Revlon has the best ds lipstick ever!
ReplyDeleteI think you must have somehow switched Fabulous Fig with another color. Whatever color you used is gorgeous but when I googled Fabulous Fig it is definitely a really deeeeeep red and not the light pink it is in your swatch. Sorry if I sound rude or anything I would just really love to know what the actual color is. It's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteOkey, you have said the wrong name for the one you said it was Fabulous Fig and I really wanted it.... Do you maybe remember what colour you used on your lips???
