Recently, I bought the much raved about Revlon Colorburst Matte Balms from Chic Cosmetics Manila here in the Philippines. It is not yet available at our local counters so it is hard to buy them. I was lucky to have bought three colors that I liked. I got Mischievous, Showy, and Unapologetic. The packaging is cute, but similar to the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains, only it has a matte texture.
What it is: Revlon ColorBurst Matte Balm offers velvety color with balm-like moisture. Infused with a Triple Butter Complex of Shea, Mango and Coconut Butter. This retractable chubby crayon requires no sharpener.
Available Shades:
230 Complex
235 Mischievous
245 Audacious
210 Unapologetic
220 Showy
205 Elusive
220 Sultry
240 Striking
250 Standout
215 Shameless

OVERALL: I love most of Revlon’s products, but I think this product did not impress me much. I do not like how it looks when it settles on the lines of my lips. I like the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains more than this. If I will suggest other options for a matte lip product, it will be the Wet N’ Wild Megalast Lipsticks. They have better texture and pigmentation, and they also come in variety of colors. Remember, my experience with this product may be different, so you can still give it a try if you want to. 🙂
RECOMMEND: No
PURCHASE AGAIN: No
Hope this review helped! Have a great week! :-*
