After much
deliberation I settled on the shade 'Frenzy' from their lip stain and balm
collection. The whole idea is that the stain (which in this case resembles a
felt tip pen) is accompanied by a lip balm on the opposite end of the pen so
that you don't have to carry two seperate products around for touch ups. The
first time I used this I made the mistake of applying the stain AFTER using the
balm which apparently is a big no-no and resulted in patchy, uneven colour all
around. After reading the instructions a little more carefully I realised that
you're meant to use the stain on completely dry lips in order to ensure even
application... whoops!
I've been after a
lip stain for a while as I love the idea of them giving a subtle flush of colour
that's more suited to everyday wear than bold or heavy lipstick. I know a lot of
brands have jumped on the lip stain/paint bandwagon recently but after hearing
such good things about Revlon's 'Just Bitten' range I opted to give them a go
first. At £8 they were a little pricier than some of the lip stains bought out
by other high street brands but I figured you probably get what you pay
for!
Love the shade on you. Does it have the barest of golden undertones or are my eyes playing tricks?
ReplyDeleteThanks! No I don't think so, maybe it's just a reflection of the sun)

This is a nice colour. I bought one of these balm stains and totally hated it lol. I prefer the crayon ones, the newer range :)
