Hi girlies!!
With the buzz around the Revlon Lip Butters going full on crazy now, I thought it might be nice to compare them to the L’Oreal ‘versions’. Called Rouge Caresse the range is slightly smaller at just 10 shades, and I picked my 3 favourite colours (as they are currently on the 3for2 offer!) and I have to say I was really disappointed with them. I found the colour just sat on top of my lips and looked quite tacky. I wouldn’t feel comfortable wearing these out as the colour bled quite easily and just didn’t feel nice on. Now I have seen some other reviews where people have praised these lipsticks and recommended them over the Revlon Lip Butters…but with the risk of sounding like a bitch I think the pictures of the bloggers wearing them show the quality isn’t very good so I don’t completely see what they are seeing! Sorry!! Here are some swatches of the colours I purchased:
Tempting Lilac:
Lovely Rose:
Nude Ingenue:
Do you see the sort of film on top of the lips I was talking about? The colour is sort of resting on the lips rather than colouring the lips if that makes sense!! I really didn’t enjoy the colours either, I felt they came out quite similar to one another and so I can’t recommend these which is a shame!
If you do decide to purchase them then you can buy them here for £7.99 each (and they are on 3for2 at the moment!)
Let me know what you think!

Well actually thats the funny thing, my lips weren’t dry at all…I posted some pictures of the revlon lip butters below and you can see this doesn’t happen with them. I just think these ones weren’t for me…and I have seen this ‘effect’ on alot of the bloggers pictures after reviewing them 🙂
Your lips look like you never heard of chapstick in your life, that’s why you cannot wear these lipsticks.
Great review, it’s a shame about some of the colours but for some reason I’m still tempted to purchase them! :p x

I love my Revlon lip butters and I spotted these in Boots, I swatched a few on the back of my hand and I really liked the colours and I thought the packaging was better than the lip butters but looking at the pics I see what you mean about the colour! Glad I kept my pennies in my purse 🙂 http://jo-beautyandthebooks.blogspot.co.uk/
