Product Spotlight: Revlon Lip Butters

Hey Guys!

The Revlon Lip Butters are something that have been a BIG hit since they were debuted almost a year ago. I definitely think they've started to be overlooked and I'm doing this post to encourage you to dig in your stash and pull them out to play once again! I have 5 colors currently, but I plan to go and purchase some of the darker colors soon.

Lollipop | Creme Brulee | Tutti Frutti | Sweet Tart | Sugar Plum

I still find myself reaching for the lip butters because they are like a lipstick, just more moisturizing. My favorite is Sugar Plum, I've repurchased 5x!

How many do you own, and do you enjoy them? Pull them out of your stash and use them today!

Thanks so much for reading.

What I've Been Loving: February Edition

Hey Guys!!! Long time, no talk! I've been busy with school and actually having a life and trying to sleep somewhere in between all that!! Haha, anyway I'm here to show you what I've been reaching for constantly aka my "favorites". I have quite a few because I haven't done a post like this in a while and I've acquired a lot of stuff! Here's What I've Been Loving!

Sorry it's a lil fuzzy, I had to lighten it some.

1. Beauty Secrets Acetone nail remover- This particular formula is for natural nails and it has vitamins in it. It still has acetone, I know, but my nails don't feel nearly as dry as they used to with my old polish remover! I bought this at Sally's.
2. Sally Hansen Hard As Wraps acrylic gel- Read my review here
3. OPI polish Pedal Faster Suzi!- I bought this a couple of weeks ago. Look for a NOTD featuring this polish soon! It's the perfect pink to me.
4. China Glaze polish Dorothy Who?- I love love love this polish!!!! I fell in love with it a long time ago when I was browsing a nail blog and I just happened to run across it while I was in Sally's! I was too excited. I took a NOTD picture, but this polish is very hard to photograph.
5. E.L.F. Eyeliner Brush- I use this to clean up around my manicures. The Dorothy Who? polish stained it some haha.

1. MAC Matchmaster foundation in 9.0- I haven't done a blog post, but I did a video! Cliff notes version: I love it!!!!
2. Color Tattoo in Pomegranate Punk- This is my second used color tattoo, it's such a beautiful color.
3. Color Tattoo in Bad to the Bronze- I love this color tattoo! I usually reach for this one more than any other because it's neutral and can go with so many types of looks! [To see my review and swatches of all the other C.T.s I have, click here]
4. Maybelline's Volum' Express The Colossal mascara- I don't know where I've been, but this mascara is my new fave! I had to use it when I misplaced my normal mascara. It's great, I'll do a review soom =)
5. CoverGirl Liquilineblast eyeliner- This liner is perfect in my waterline. If I'm in a hurry, its smooth enough to glide on quickly!

Excuse my reflection =)

1. "Neutral" Coastal Scents Hot Pot's palette- These shadows are some of the softest and pigmented shadows I've tried in a while. For my swatches, click here.
2. Wet N Wild 6 pan palette in Lust- This palette is perfect for doing a non-traditional smokey eye.
3. Wet N Wild 6 pan palette in Vanity- I use this palette anytime I want a quick look that I know will come out great [along with the B.T.T.B color tattoo]. Great neutrals. For swatches of the 6 pan palettes, click here.

1. Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Deeeeeep Conditioner- I'm a new fan of the Aussie products. I leave this deeeeeep conditioner [how cute is the name?] in my hair while I shower and it makes my hair so soft! This is definitely an impressive conditioner.
2. Wet N Wild Megalast lipstick in Ravin' Raisin- I had to include this in my favorites because its the first lipstick I think I've liked in a long time. A swatch is on the same post as the 6 pan palettes above.
3. Revlon lip butter in Sugar Plum- This is the perfect mauve pink. It's not too bright and can be an everyday color [swatch].
4. Palladio herbal tinted lip balm in Orange- I recently picked this up from Sally's clearance section and I wish I'd picked up more than one! I've been using it non stop since I've gotten it. It has a sheer orange color and it's really glossy. The staying power isn't as long as I'd like, but I can get over that.
5. Sigma Beauty's Hollywood Glamour retractable brush- This brush is super duper soft! I keep it in my makeup bag for touching up, if I need to.
6. Tweezerman Mini tweezers- These came from Sally's. I like to pluck my eyebrows in between waxes and these get the job done! Plus they're pink =)
7. Maybelline Eye Studio gel liner- Opaque black line. Creamy consistency. Great staying power. Enough said!
8. Korres Pomegranate Mattifying Primer- I truly think this has stopped my skin from becoming a grease-ball in an hour. No, it doesn't minimize my pores but it never claimed to, and I am completely okay with that. I'd honestly rather have a matte face! I have another tube en route as I type. HG product.

1. Sigma Beauty Cleansing & Polishing Tool- This is great for exfoliating. It has three different heads and is comparable to the Clarisonic [In my opinion]. I love it so much!
2. CoverGirl Queen Collection Lasting Matte Pressed Powder- This is another product that helps me when I need to touch up. It's really great.

*WHEW*!!! Thanks for sticking with me throughout this long post!! What has been your number one must have lately?! Thanks so much for reading!

Revlon Lip Butters: Review & Swatches

Hey Guys! I'm back with another review for you. This time, it's going to be on the Revlon lip butters I'm sure you've seen many v/bloggers raving about. Well.... Here's another rave! I picked up 3 colors that appealed to me right off the bat, because I didn't want to pay $6 and change and end up not liking them!

Tutti Frutti, Sugar Plum, GumDrop

I'm happy with 2/3 of these and I'll let you know the bad apple of the group when I get to it! First up:




Tutti Frutti:

[First off, I love the name!] A bright pumpkin orange in the tube. I found when I put it on, it slightly leaned towards a reddish orange. It's not red and won't ever be mistaken for red, but it's not completely orange in my opinion. The consistency of all the lip butters are like a lipstick/balm mix, but with a glossy shine. This is one I knew I had to have because I love orange lips!!

Make sure you exfoliate your lips, otherwise they'll look like mine! EW

Sugar Plum: 

This is my favorite and I've been using it since I bought it! It's a mauve-y pink that looks great with or without a full face of makeup!

Gumdrop:

A cool toned lavender that is really really pretty. I wanted to like this color, and I do, just not on my skin tone. It's too light and it makes my lips look ashy. I wish they had made a more medium toned purple, that would've worked better for me.

Overall I love these lip butters. I think they're perfect for people who aren't big lipstick fans like myself. It's somewhat of a transitioning product to help you get into lipsticks. The glossiness of these really make me feel like I'm just wearing a opaque lip gloss. You can find these at Target and Rite Aid, I know for sure. 


Have you tried any of these? Which ones do you suggest I buy next? Thanks for reading!!!
