REVLON Global Brand Ambassador Emma Stone attended the Spider Man 2 premiere on 27th evening in New York City wearing a Prada gown with a modernized 1970’s makeup look. Celebrity Makeup Artist, Rachel Goodwin, created a soft eye and luminous skin paired with a bold lip using the latest Revlon Collection.

I guess Demure and Provocateur are not launched in India.
Both these Lacquer Balms and the Matte Balms launched together..see the review and swatches of the Matte Balms HERE.
Revlon ColorBurst Lacquer Balms come in a beautiful glossy metallic packaging. These are glosses in the form of lip crayons..super glossy but still pigmented.
The composition of three butters Shea, Mango and Coconut make these super hydrating and moisturising..
They are quiet light in texture..you do not feel like you have applied anything on lips..feels like a lip balm. These are quiet pigmented..the swatches are just one swipe..and after the glossines fades away..the color stays for more hours..especially the deeper colors like Vivacious here.
These have the same peppermint smell like in Kissable Balm Stains and Matte Balms. All of the shades have super fine minute shimmer which is not even visible unless seen very very closely..but this helps giving the shades that glossiness and high shine.
L-R: Ingenue, Tease, Vivacious
145 Ingenue is a perfect MLBB shade for me..a nude brown..its an everyday shade.
130 Tease is a beautiful coral orange..it looks amazing on warm skin tone..my favorite of the 3..also wore it HERE.
120 Vivacious is a pretty rosy pink (None of those fuchsias or blue undertone pinks)
Here are the swatches..
T-B: Vivacious, Tease, Ingenue
And here are they on moi..
L-R: Ingenue, Tease, Vivacious
And an FOTD with Vivacious..
Pros:
1. Super glossy.
2. High pigmentation.
3. Moisturising.
4. Deeper colors stay longer.
5. Like the glossy packaging.
6. All 8 shades are quiet nice..there is one for everyone.
7. Feels quiet light on lips.
Cons:
1. Little expensive.
2. Not transfer proof.
3. Lighter colors don’t stay that longer.
Overall, I would say I like the light texture and glossines..and the shades too..all three and in fact all 8 are pretty and nice..and perfect for all occasions..the one like Ingenue works for your everyday wear, formal wear too..Tease is a must have according to me..my favorite of the three..it looks beautiful on warm skin tones like ours..Vivacious is a clean, pretty rosy pink..one of the natural pinks..that would look good on everyone..I recommend all three ! In fact Flirtatious, a nice deeper pink and Enticing, a pretty red, are also nice shades from this collection. If you are a red lover..or want to try reds..you can try something glossy and light like Enticing.

Revlon ColorBurst Matte Balms Sultry and Unapologetic Review, Swatches
What the Company claims: Velvety Matte Look. Moisture Rich Balm
A Matte finish that’s beyond plush.Balm that’s beyond comforting. Our Triple Butter Complex of Shea, Coconut and Mango butters nourishes lips. In 8 collectible, craveable colors.
MRP: Rs.800/- for 2.7g
Shades Available: 8
Elusive
Sultry
Unapologetic
Shameless
Audacious
Mischievous
Striking
Standout
The packaging is almost the same as the Revlon Kissable Lip Balm Stain..the retractable chubby pencils..the outer finish is though matte and darker..
They have the same peppermint smell and flavour as the Lip Balm Stains..though these Matte Balms and the Lacquer Balms have a blend of 3 butters..Shea, Mango and Coconut..which makes them more hydrating and moisturising..
Matte lipsticks and balms are not easily available across all brands..MAC makes good matte lipsticks..Revlon has a matte range..but very selected matte lipsticks are that good and hydrating too..these are matte with a velvety finish.
Revlon has almost nailed it with these Matte Balms..pigmentation- check, matte texture- check, staying power- check. Almost all good qualities of a matte lipstick/lip product..only thing is its not completely transfer proof..and cannot be layered for touch up..as it can go patchy..it needs to be removed and reapplied..
L- Sultry, R- Unapologetic
225 Sultry is a deep pink brown..supposedly MAC Twig dupe..but I am not really sure.
210 Unapologetic is a bright reddish coral pink..dupe of MAC Lipstick in Impassioned (Impassioned its slightly deeper) and Party Parrot – Limited Edition (Almost similar.. 95%)
I think Unapologetic is also the most loved shade in the Indian blogosphere..I personally love it ! Totally brightens up the face.. Also wore it HERE.
U- Sultry, D- Unapologetic
Here are the shades on me..
L- Sultry, R- Unapologetic
Lips look a little drier with Unapologetic coz Sultry was removed completely which left lips little dry..
And an FOTD with Unapologetic..
Pros:
1. Love the velvetty matte look.
2. Amazingly pigmented.
3. Staying power is pretty good.
4. All 8 shades are quite pretty..there is one for everyone..red lovers, pink lovers, especially Unapologetic is beauty bloggers’ favorite !
5. Hydrating..even though its matte.
6. Feels light on the lips.
Cons:
1. Not transfer proof.
2. Cannot be layered as goes patchy.
Overall, I am in love with the feel and texture of these matte balms..they score on all levels..Highly recommended !
Unapologetic is my most worn shade these days..I also love Audacious, Striking and Elusive..oh I think I love all the shades..the colors are all fab..

Revlon ColorStay LongWear Nail Enamel 230 Bonsai Review, NOTD
What the Company claims: – We are thrilled to announce Revlon ColorStay Longwear Nail Ena mel, a nail innovation that provides up to 11 days of lasting color* and gel-like shine.
*When worn with Revlon Colorstay™ base & top coat
KEY FEATURES/BENEFITS/INGREDIENTS:
Inspired by Salon Gel Nails- gel- like shine- no UV light
ColorStay technology instantly wraps nails in a shatterproof shield of color
Easy to remove, gentle on nails
Unique double barrel brush for a smooth, even, streak-free application
A complete wardrobe of 16 timeless shades, plus a base and top coat SHADES: The ColorStay Longwear Nail Enamel is available in 18 exciting and vivacious shades like Red Carpet, Delicious, Velvet Rope, Passionate Pink to name a few.
EXPERT TIPS:
– Apply Revlon ColorStay Longwear Base Coat
– Apply two coats of Revlon ColorStay Longwear Nail Enamel and let dry.
– Apply Revlon ColorStay Longwear Top Coat for 11 days of lasting color!
MRP: Rs.350/- for 11.7ml
These are formaldehyde, toluene and DBP free and also UV sensitive which is the first..
Comes in a long bottle..and the quantity is quite good (11.7 ml is what no brand offers !). The brush is perfect..and 2 coats give a nice opaque perfect coverage..
And these indeed stay for 11 plus days as claimed..I have applied it from more than 10 days…and it has only chipped a little from the tips..
Only issue is it takes forever to dry ! Like forever..I waited for sooo long..and still messed up a little..and also takes some time to remove..
But otherwise, these are just perfect..a little on the expensive side..but if you are someone who is always pressed for time..and do not have the time and patience to change nail paints regularly, this is a boon for you !
230 Bonsai is a grass green shade with gold shimmer..
Something which I have never tried till date..quite a different shade..and it looked so fab ! I even received compliments for the shade 😀
I lovee the shade Passionate Pink, Blue Slate, French Roast, Sequin, Vintage Rose..I think I love all the shades ! Such unique, interesting and fab shades..but they have released 30 shades in the US and only 16 here..I am disappointed 🙁 I hope they have some good shades for us here too..
Highly Recommended !

Revlon Colorburst Lipstick Fuchsia Review, Swatches – MAC Girl About Town Dupe ? Ok..now this has a story behind it..I am always into more of neutrals..and get scared with bright shades..but from the time I saw this super HOT pink on Bruna Abdullah in the song Tu Mera Hero from Desi Boys..I wanted this shade !!
The one Bruna wore looked like MAC Girl About Town to me..I searched for all Fuchsias and Hot Pinks..would share all the shades I liked out of those I found,in a separate post later..
After comparing the shades online and checking some reviews, I found Revlon Colorburst Fuchsia is indeed super close to Girl About Town..though Girl About Town is a little more deeper and Revlon Fuchsia is a little more cool toned…but they are quite similar..
1 swipe, 2 swipes
Revlon Colorburst Lipsticks come in a black criss cross pattern packaging with the shade color at the top..they are quite smooth and glide on easily..this bright shade is super pigmented..and in one swipe you get enough color..in two it comes out fully..stays for around 4-5 hours without eating or drinking..feels quite light on the lips..
Revlon Colorburst Fuchsia is a cool toned bright pink shade..it looks amazing both as a stain and full blown..this shade would look great on all skin tones..I have seen dusky girls rock bright shades more..
I love how this shade brightens up the whole face..Also seen HERE
Check out the shade Peach and the complete review for Revlon Colorburst Lipsticks HERE
MRP: Rs.610/- for 3.7g
Now these were priced at 550 when they were launched..then they raised it to 580 and now 610 for the new and hot selling shades..I don’t think they should keep on increasing the prices like that :/
Some shades are available at Rs.499/- on Flipkart..check them HERE
Overall I love this shade ! And surely recommend it..if you love bright pinks, you are going to love this..did I get the shade similar to Bruna..I am not sure..her seems more bright coz of the camera and all..but but I am loving this..and have no regrets..all girls should have a hot pink in their stash 😉
