Revlon Colourburst Lipsticks

Whilst in boots this week I spotted these lipsticks at the Revlon stand in boots and having a few extra pennies, I decided to treat myself to two colours - a pink shade and a red shade. I had already heard a lot about these lipsticks online and through some friends and had heard they were good for basic daywear for those days where you would like a semi-formal make-up look as they are supposed to be very moisturising while still being pigmented like a normal lipstick!

Here's the official mumbo jumbo:

Revlon ColorBurst Lipstick uses Elasticolor™ technology to distribute rich colour pigments evenly over lips and allows the formula to move comfortably with lips – like a second skin!

Revlon ColorBurst Lipstick is also infused with moisturizers and antioxidants such as Sweet Almond Oil to improve lip texture and prevent drying.

Key Benefits:

• Innovative pigments provide immediate, high-pigment colour release on lips to give rich colour in just one swipe.
  
• Unique Elasticolor technology hugs lips with an explosion of colour that feels virtually weightless• Contains film-forming polymers for longer wear and skin conditioning properties
  
• Moisturizers and anti-oxidants, including Sweet Almond Oil, improve lip texture
  
• Beautiful packaging, with premium bullet lipstick case and embossed Revlon logo

(L-R) Baby Pink, Raspberry

In Baby Pink

And in Raspberry

I think this stays pretty true to what it promises, it's creamy and easy to apply and remains moisturising for as long as it stays on. My main issue with these products is that the staying power is incredibly short, I ended up reapplying at least 4 or 5 times throughout the day (it must be mentioned that I did not wear lip liner). I think I would still put up with it for this product though as it is a great everday wearable product. My favourite of the two is the raspberry shade but the baby pink is a perfect everyday wear lipstick like a sheerer version of viva glam gaga 01!

These lipsticks retail for £7.99 in Boots!

Have any of you tried these lipsticks? How did you like them?
