Lured into Boots recently, so I was by the need for new liquid eyeliner. Then of course I spotted it was buy-one-get-one half price on all make-up, so obviously I had to get this new coral toned gloss from Revlon too. Obviously. Ahem.
These are available in 12 shades (although I don't know how many of those we'll be getting here), and are designed to plump the lips while hydrating and adding a glossy colour-packed shine. So here are my thoughts:
- Although the formula has a micro-glitter in it, it doesn't feel gritty on the lips but instead has just a nice glossy feel- not too sticky or gloopy.
- It has a doe-foot applicator which makes it easy to slick on, although it can be easy to put too much on so I would say a mirror is definitely necessary for this one, unless you're only using a tiny amount.
- There's virtually no scent- I say virtually because if you sniff really carefully (don't do this part in public obviously, to avoid looking like a lunatic), you may detect a very faint hint of caramel. Weird. Either give it a proper smell Revlon, or don't bother.
- The colour is very pretty and being coral with a hint of shimmer, is perfect for Summer. You can either lightly apply this or go full on with it, as you can see in the photos below:
lightly applied
more heavily applied (ridiculous pout optional)
- Lastly, I will say that like most glosses this isn't hugely long-lasting, if you're planning on eating, drinking or you know, living, then you'll need regular touch-ups.
Overall, this is a nice product but I can't say it's the best gloss I've ever used and when it's finished I more than likely won't repurchase. It is a pretty Summer lip staple though.
Anyone else tried any of the Revlon super lustrous glosses? If so, what did you think?

You rock a coral shade lady x
ReplyDeleteThanks lovely! Have become slightly coral obsessed..
Deletexx
Haven't tried but does look lovely on you!
ReplyDeleteThank you!x
DeleteNot a huge fan of gloss but this is really pretty, I do like Revlon products. Hate the way Boots lures you in ;-)x
ReplyDeleteI'm really getting into Revlon lately, especially their polishes- such good quality! xx
DeleteOh that shade is lovely!
ReplyDeleteThanks Co! I think it'd suit a lot of skin types too :)
DeleteBoots, that evil temptress! Lovely colour.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I know, I go in for one thing only..never happens! Crazy! :)
DeleteOhh this looks beautiful on you, I love this colour! I haven't tried any of their lip glosses, but I'm a huge fan of their lip stains! I dooo have a voucher for Boots so technically it isn't bad to buy one... or two?
ReplyDeleteI think in that case it would be wrong not to get one! They are very nice for the summer alright, definitely worth checking out- there's a nice pink one too :) x
DeleteAh the old Boots and the luring...should be a law against it so there should! This is lovely on you - going through a real gloss phase these days myself!
ReplyDeleteMe too! Think it's the summer, it's just so much easier! :) x
