Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain Review

The name is a mouth full lol. Anyways these little guys have similar packaging to Tarte's Lip Surgence and Clinique's Chubby Sticks. I don't have either of the two so I can't compare the product itself to Revlon's, but a few youtuber's and bloggers have comparisons that you can check out. Let me just start out by saying I love how convenient the packaging is, it's perfect to just throw in your purse and take it to go. The cap is secure enough to do that I haven't had a problem with the cap coming off at all. It also is a twist up that goes both up and down so you don't have to worry about it if you accidently wind it up to much you can just wind it back down. The product itself is amazing I have fallen in love with these and it's all I reach for lately. I only picked up two because honestly I wasn't expecting much from these and at the time there wasn't many reviews on this product yet. So I found a $2off coupon on coupons.com so I figured what the heck I'll try it out and these are the first two colors that caught my eye (Charm,and Cherish). So much to my surprise these are very moisturizing and the color payoff is great. Here are some swatches.

On Top (Charm): Soft nudey peach color. Although it would be catergorized as a nude for most people, it is still very opaque. I wouldn't say that this one is a stain although it has a good wear time for me, it doesn't leave a stain on my lips at all. 

Bottom (Cherish): Nice wearable pink, thats the best way I could describe it. It isn't to bright nor is it to light for my skintone. It's just a perfect everyday pink shade. It is very opaque on my lips, and this one does leave a slight tint to my lips after it wears off. Here is a photo of my wearing "Cherish". I don't think this picture does it justice I def. think it is a little more vibrant in person.

Pros:
  1. Opaque
  2. long wearing
  3. glossy finish
  4. moisturizing
  5. doesn't dry my lips out
Cons:
  1. Kind of pricey for a drugstore brand
  2. I wouldn't necessarily say they stain the lips
Overall: I absolutely love these and can't wait to pick up more!!!!
