Review Time : Revlon Colourburst Lip Butter in Candy Apple 035

When I found out that Revlon were bringing out lip butters I was really excited because I've wanted a nice quality one with a tint of colour for quite a while. I looked at reviews and went to the shop to buy one, I looked at the bright pinks but then when I saw the red colour, I knew I just had to have it. I took a look at the price and I was tempted to but it back down, it's really expensive for what it is. If it was a lipstick I would've payed the price but for a lip butter at £7.99, I just thought is was a little much. Anyway, I took the plunge and bought, I got a few point on my Boots Advantage Card so I could spend that on something else.


After getting it home I fell in love with it. The packaging, the feel and the colour. I was happy I got it in the end even if it was on the pricey side. The colour is so great and the pigmentation is surprisingly good for a lip butter while still being hydrating and moisturising leaving your lips as soft as a baby's bottom!
On the picture above you can see the product in different angles and the whole fancy look of the lip butter. On the top left of the picture you can see the product swatched, On the top swatch it was swatched a few times to build up the colour and the one below is swatched just once still leaving a great colour.

Overall... I love this product!

No7 - Blush Tint Cream Blush - 10 Clove : Review

I bought this with the No7 £5 voucher I got when I bought some thing in Boots. I really wanted to try a cream blush for a long time so I decided to go with the blush tint in the No7 range.

I got the colour '10 - Clove' because I really liked the colour and when I swatched it on my hand it wasn't too dark and it matched nicely with my pale skin.
These blush tints are priced at £10 for 3g. They are quite pricey compared to other brands and compared to No7's cream blush which consists of 6g priced at £9. I found the blush tint to be more pigmented then the cream brush so I wasn't really bothered about this difference. With the blush tint being so pigmented you're going to get a lot of use out of the product anyway.

I really like this blush tint, it's really creamy and easy to apply. I found that it was best to apply the product straight onto my cheek and blend it out with my fingers, a stippling brush or a foundation brush. With this application I found the colour looked fresh and natural on the skin.

Overall I really like this product. It's a bit of a steep price tag but with the £5 voucher it's worth the spend. I would like to try some more colours as I really like the product and look it gave.

Hope you enjoyed reading!
