New from Revlon! Colorburst Lip Butter Swatches, Photos & Review

Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter New from Revlon! Colorburst Lip Butter Swatches, Photos & Review

Whilst perusing a local Rite Aid not too long ago, I spotted a new Revlon display packed with some super cool looking translucent tubes. Upon further inspection I saw they were a newfangled product called Colorburst Lip Butter. Call me what you will, but anything with the word “butter” in it usually piques my interest! icon smile New from Revlon! Colorburst Lip Butter Swatches, Photos & Review

I stood there for probably a good 7 or 8 minutes picking colors up, putting others down, picking more up before I decided on the six colors I bought. There were at least 15 or 20 colors I believe. HARD to choose! Luckily for me they were on sale at the time.

As mentioned, they come in a nice translucent tube with a quilted pattern on them. The tops are clear so you can see the color you are getting. Bonus!

They look like a lipstick, but feel more like a lip balm. But they aren’t as sheer as one might expect from something called a lip butter. They do contain a lot of moisturizing ingredients such as jojoba seed oil, shea butter and mango butter.

I think this is kind of a fitting nail varnish to show on Halloween. icon smile Illamasqua Freak Collection for Winter 2011  Hemlock Nail Varnish Swatches, Photos & Review It’s Illamasqua Hemlock from their Freak Collection!

This is the only nail shade in the Freak Collection and it’s limited edition.

The color of Hemlock reminds me of an opal ring I once had when I was in my teens. The color is a beautiful green iridescent that changes depending on the lighting. It’s great for layering as well.
