Revlon Super Lustrous Matte Lipstick REVIEW (Shade 9 Fabulous Fig)

RATING :- 7.9 OUT OF 10

Today i will be reviewing the Revlon Super Lustrous Matte Lipstick Fabulous Fig 9. I got this awhile back and had been using this quite often. I must say i love the shade, its kind of reddish brown with a tint of orange which is visible when you apply on the lips. The texture is very creamy and is semi-matte and you can see a bit of sheen. This comes in a pack of 4.2g and costs INR Rs 599.


What Revlon claims about the Revlon Matte Lipstick ? : Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick 82 shades in 4 fabulous finishes. Infused with mega-moisturizers to seal in color and softness. Find your lip color amongst a dazzling array of 82 shade in 4 fabulous finishes of Matte, Pearl, Creme, and Shine. Exclusive liquisilk formula with mega-moisturizers seals in color and softness. Silky-smooth, creamy texture. Stay true color wears evenly.

How to use ? : Apply directly to lips for a high-shine look. Add Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss for even more shine.

Ingredients : Isononyl Isononanoate, Ozokerite, Trioctyldodecyl Citrate and Iron Oxides.


Revlon Super Lustrous Matte Lipstick comes in the classic Revlon lipstick packaging which is a black tube with silver case inside. However to mark that the lipstick is brand new and different from others, the word 'NEW' has been inscribed inside a heart on the top of the lipstick cover. I have not tried out any other shades in this range apart from the shade 9 Fabulous Fig. So far i am loving it. May not be the best i have tried out, however according to the price tag, the product is nice. Does not have any scent. The lip color glides on smoothly and is nicely pigmented. The lipstick is water-resistant so you can drink water and still the lipstick would be intact, however it is not water proof.
 
Swatch of Revlon Super Lustrous Matte Lipstick Fabulous Fig 9
Revlon Super Lustrous Matte Lipstick stays as long as 6 hours, and may be more but starts fading off gradually. If you are taking a meal, then after that you find a nice tint of it, so does not disappear if you take meal, however would definitely need proper touch-up. Talking about the shade, it may not be a very work place friendly color, as depending on skin tone it might look a bit orangish at times. However, for a casual day out, this is perfect. Also it has a tendency to transfer to any other stuffs, so you need to be a bit cautious about it. However, i just love the fact that it keeps the lips nicely moist and hydrated. And even if the texture is creamy, it is light-weight. It does not bleed too. The packaging is travel-friendly too.

Revlon Plumpsexxxy Lipcolor Review (Shade 52 Muzzle Duzzle)

RATING : - NULL/DISAPPOINTED

While going through one of my drawers, i found this Revlon Plumpsexxxy Lipcolor SPF 15 in the shade 52 Muzzle Duzzle. The packaging is quite dirty as it has been lying in the desk for a longggggggggg time now, i think i have hardly used this shade two times. Not at all a favourite of mine, anyways. It contains 4 g of the product and costs INR Rs 630.

The packaging of Revlon Plumpsexxxy Lipcolor is quite neat, the body is platinum gold in color with the middle part fully golden in color. The cap is see-through so that you can check out the shade without having to open the lipstick. It has got a faint vanilla odor. I am not again a fan of this kind of smell. It is very moisturising and shiny. The consistency is kind of creamy. When you apply on the lips, you can feel a mild cold kind of sensation, almost mint like feeling, wont say it is a tingling sensation as generally lip plumpers do have that.

When it comes to plumping the lips, this lipstick from Revlon is a big fail at that. It provides no plumpiness as the name would suggest. So if you want your lips to be plumpy, dont try this lipstick, its just a waste of money. Revlon Plumpsexxxy Lipcolor is not that superbly pigmented too, you need to go through the lines again and again to see the color, at least with this particular lip shade, so is the case. Since it is creamy, it can settle between the lip lines if not applied heavily.

Two good points that i can think of about this lipstick are that is very moisturising, so if you want some hydration on your lips go ahead with this. Also it contains some SPF, so you need not apply any more sunblock on the lips. Revlon Plumpsexxxy Lipcolor got a good staying power and stays on properly at least for 4 hours, without any munching. Now about the shade 52 Muzzle Duzzle, it is a medium brown shade, perfect for everyday wear. This shade is again not liked by me, dont know why. It simply looks too unflattering on me. Anyways, i am putting a swatch of this Revlon lipstick for you all here. And if you are into matte then this would be again a disappointment for you!

So overall, if you are just looking for hydration with some color on the lips, also some sun protection, this Revlon Plumpsexxxy Lipcolor will serve the purpose. However, if you want something to plump up your pucker, and you are expecting that to happen with this lip color then this will disappoint you totally!

Revlon Photoready Two-Way Powder Foundation Review

RATING :- 7 OUT OF 10

Today i will review the Revlon Photoready Two-Way Powder Foundation. I got this sometime back, and have used this quite a number of times. It contains 9.1 gm of the product and costs INR Rs 1400. I got the powder foundation in shade 150 Natural Beige. It comes in an outer packaging made up of paper, black in color. The case is also solid matte black and made up of plastic, got a mirror inside and a sponge.


What Revlon claims about the Revlon Photoready Two-Way Powder Foundation ? : Revlon Photoready Two-Way Powder Foundation formula with light-filtering technology and soft focus pigments deliver an airbrushed look, wont settle into pores, for a flawless finish. Oil free. Fragrance free.

How to use ? : Apply evenly to face with wet or dry sponge, wet for higher coverage.

Ingredients : Talc, Mica, Bismuth Oxychloride, Nylon-12, Silica, Polymethyl Methacrylate, Zinc Stearate, Titanium Dioxide, Dimethicone, Polyethylene, Tocopheryl, Acetate, Lecithin, Ethylparaben, Methylparaben etc


Revlon Photoready Two-Way Powder Foundation is basically a foundation in powder form. It does not have any fragrance of its own. It provides light to medium coverage, since i have lot of acne scars, i still need a concealer to cover up those marks, this wont provide any cover to those marks. The packaging is quite travel-friendly. However, the entire packaging gets a bit dirty after use as you can see in the picture so hygiene is one issue.

Applying the foundation properly is the biggest challenge. I think i faced the similar issue with the Chambor powder foundation Brightening Smoothening Foundation Wet & Dry, but this is even worse. When i follow the instruction and use it with the wet sponge, it creates a very patchy splotchy look, and then i will have to go over to the places once again and apply the foundation with a dry sponge. And if i apply the foundation just with the dry sponge, it gives very very light coverage, just like a compact powder. So make sure you have a good concealer handy and also you have some time in your hand to apply the Revlon Photoready Two-Way Powder Foundation properly.


Revlon Photoready Two-Way Powder Foundation is an okayish powder foundation. If you are looking for something for the evening party look, this foundation fails to work properly. However, if its daytime and you want a softer look with minimal coverage then this foundation can work for you. Powder foundation is best for oily skin, and hence i tried this. In that field, this works pretty well and does not get much shiny or oily on face even after an hour and half.

Revlon Touch & Glow Moisturising Makeup REVIEW

RATING :- 6.5 OUT OF 10

I got this Revlon Touch & Glow Moisturising Makeup a year back or so, and did not use this much because i have oily skin, so dont need a moisturising foundation generally unless it is the winter season. However i kept the foundation in one corner of my vanity with care, knowing i would review it one day. The packaging is nothing special, just a small glass bottle with black plastic lid. However there is no leakage so you can carry this out safely. This costs INR Rs 280 for a 20 ml product. Quite affordable.

Ingredients : Titanium Dioxide, Butylene Glycol, Talc, Lanolin Alcohol.

What Revlon claims about Revlon Touch & Glow Moisturising Makeup? : Revlon’s Touch & Glow Foundation is a weightless formula that provides medium coverage while hydrating your skin and offering it a dewy finish.

Natural Radiant Look
The water-based formula goes smoothly over your skin and perfects your natural skin tone to keep you looking radiant.

Smoothes & Moisturises
This Makeup Foundation evens out skin texture and provides it with a touch of moisture.

Prevents Clogging of Pores
The formula is so smooth and lightweight that you needn’t worry about pores getting clogged.

Dewy Finish
The hydrating formula prevents caking and gives you a natural and dewy look so you look glowing and gorgeous all day long.

Revlon Touch & Glow Moisturising Makeup is an extremely runny foundation, so be careful while trying to get some foundation on your palm. As usual it does not have a nozzle or spatula so its hell difficult to get the right amount of product. It gives only light coverage so don’t expect it to cover any flaws on the skin. However its damn easy to blend it, and it absorbs real fast. However being oily skinned, i least like the shine or glow it gives on the face.

I got the ivory mist shade of the foundation, however Revlon Touch & Glow Moisturising Makeup comes in 4 shades – Ivory Mist, Rose Mist, Gold Mist, Natural Mist. I did not find my skin to breakout after using this foundation, but there is a fair chance of that happening since this is a moisturising makeup. But dry skinned girls would like to use this Revlon foundation as an everyday foundation. This adds a tad bit of shine which lasts for few hours and also makes the skin soft and supple. This is more like a tinted moisturiser rather than an actual foundation, i think.

Review - Revlon Color Burst Lipbutter Pink Truffle Lipstick

RATING : 7.8 OUT OF 10

For quite sometime I have not reviewed any new products. So here I am with the Revlon Color Burst Lipbutter Pink Truffle Lipstick review. Read on if you want to know about the lippie.

This lipstick costs INR Rs 600 and the quantity is 0.09 oz. Revlon Color Burst Lipbutter Pink Truffle Lipstick is a glossy lipstick with some shimmers in it. The color of it is a warm pink color. The best thing which I love about this lipstick color is that it is having a natural finish and can be worn everyday at office. It is not totally nude kind of color, it has certain degrees of oomph in it too, and that’s why Pink Truffle is such a lovely color.

The coverage is opaque, but then I need to mention here only that, it is not completely opaque. So, it gives a medium coverage. If you have used any Revlon lipbutters, you must be already knowing that the consistency is creamy and can be applied easily, but lasts for very less time. But thankfully, this Revlon Color Burst Lipbutter Pink Truffle Lipstick lasts for a decent amount of time. It stays on well for 3 hours. The formulae is moisturizing but you need frequent touch-ups!
