Revlon Lip Glosses

Revlon is probably one of the few drugstore brands of makeup I'd actually buy. So when my Local Drugstore (Jewel/Osco) had Revlon Mineral Lip glaze on sale for 50% off, I bought a back up (Unlimited Nectar) and two other shades. And, Walgreen's had all Revlon Beyond Natural Cream Lip gloss on Clearance for around $3 each, as well as Revlon Colorstay Lipstick in "Smooth Nude" (which happens to be another favorite of mine) Revlon Lip gloss in Life's a Peach was on sale for $4.99. So yay! Lots of goodies.

 From Left to Right: Revlon Colorstay Mineral Lipglaze "Neverending Nude 505", Revlon Colorstay Mineral Lipglaze "Everlasting Blush 515", Colorstay Mineral Lipglaze "Unlimited Nectar 520", Revlon Super Lusturous Lipgloss "Life's a Peach 110", Revlon Beyond Natural Cream Lipgloss "Peach 110" and Revlon Colorstay Lip Color "Smooth Nude 350".

"Neverending Nude" with MAC Stripdown Lip Liner

Revlon Mineral Lipglaze: I've said it before, I absolutely LOVE these. "Unlimited Nectar" is the shade I wear just about every day. I love it because it's not sticky on my lips, the color doesn't flake off and it doesn't make my lips peel. It's very moisturizing and it lasts for HOURS. It leaves yours lips with a slight shine without looking "flat" like many lasting lip colors do. Its definitely a lip gloss that is good for when you're somewhere where you can't keep pulling out your lip gloss to reapply. Neverending Nude is a creamy light mauve, Everlasting Blush is a frosted pink and unlimited nectar is a creamy beigey peach. I'm very happy with all three.

Revlon Super Lusturous Lipgloss: "Life's a Peach" is one of my favorite lip glosses. I love wearing it with any nude color to add shine and a hint of peach with a pink pearl. It really makes my lip color "POP". It is also non sticky and moisturizing on my lips.

Revlon Beyond Natural Cream Lipgloss: I love the color of "Peach" it is a very vibrant peach and really suits my skin tone. The formula is a little thick, and if you apply too much you will end up with gooey feeling lips. But with a thin coat, it makes your lips feel really smooth and no stickyness what so ever. I really like this and would repurchase if it was the clearance price. I probably wouldn't repurchase for the regular price.

Revlon Colorstay Lip Color: This is a back up. I mentioned this in previous posts, but I'll do a quick overview. This is one of my few favorite drugstore lipsticks. It's a nude coral/light pink/mauve with a pink pearl. It is similar to the much talked about "Nude Attitude" but it is a little more sheer. It goes on extremely smooth and glossy and will dry to a semi matte. I love how this looks when I apply a little concealer to my lips prior application.

If you like peachy pinks, I would recommend all of these!

  1. I've been looking for a nice peachy pink! I know I said earlier that I tend to like cool pinks, but they look awful when I wear warmer eyeshadows.

    Thank you for sharing! I'm really excited that you're blogging more. :)

  5. You are definitely right about Revlon being one of the better drug store brands. I'll be looking at their mineral glazes after the holidays.

  7. I totally had a bad allergic reaction to the Beyond Natural cream lipgloss. Which sucks bc I loved it in "Spice" After about 3 hrs of wearing it my lips would sting, around my lips would sting and they would be sensitive to the touch. Just putting that out there incase it happens to anyone else.

  8. Hello! Out of curiosity, have you noticed if there is an odd scent to the mineral lip glosses in comparison to the other Revlon products? I had purchased two in the past and had to return it due to off-putting scent (to me). I loved how it wore on my lips though. I'm wondering if I had purchased them from a bad batch.

    Please let me know your opinion.

    Thanks!

    Revlon is coming out with their version of HD foundation. It's already available in Texas, at least in our local grocery store. Have you heard of this?

  11. Hey Natster,

    I'll see what cameras I'm using. I switch between mine and my boyfriend's family's business camera. I take a lot of my pictures outside during daylight. And I went to my grocery store and fiendishly took pictures of their new foundations. I'll have them on my blog soon.

  12. Great review! I love the Revlon ColorStay line, including the mineral lip glaze; they're creamy, and surprisingly long-wearing; the color stays on even after the shine is gone. Love the packaging too; looks pricier than it actually is! Also, I am a big fan of the ColorStay lip liners:-)
