Top 5: Revlon Colorbust Lip Butters

Saturday, 9 June 2012


I'm sure you're all bored to death of hearing about Revlon Colorbust Lip Butters, so I thought I'd bore you just a tiny bit more and compile a quick top five of my favourite shades.  I know that the US have a lot more shades in their range, but out of the 14 or so which are available to purchase in the UK, here are my top five (going from L-R with the photo above):-

Candy Apple -  If you've been wary of red lipsticks in the past, but have always wanted to try out a red lip, then Candy Apple is an easy wearable choice to go for.  As the name suggests, this is pretty much the exact colour you would imagine a perfect candied apple to be.  In a nutshell, it's a fab warm toned orangey-red that is more opaque that some of the other shades.

Tutti Frutti - For some reason this was one of the hardest shades for me to get hold of.  It was constantly sold out every time I wanted to get it!  Tutti Frutti is the colour I would wear constantly on a sunny holiday.  It's a lovely bright orange-coral that brightens up my face.

Peach Parfait - This is my absolute favourite of the bunch.  A gorgeous super shimmery peachy pink, that I can see myself wearing a lot of over the summer.  If you're not a fan of glitter, then give this one a miss, but if you do like your lips quite shimmery, then you'll no doubt love it.

Strawberry Shortcake - I wasn't expecting to like this as much as I do, because I generally don't suit cool, blue toned pinks at all, but Strawberry Shortcake seems to be glossy enough for me to pull off.  It's very creamy and more opaque than some of the other shades.  Great for those looking for a barbie-esque pink without any glitter.

Berry Smoothie - My first Lip Butter that started off my buying craze (thanks again to Sandra for sending it to me!).  Berry Smoothie is a medium-pink with some shimmer that shows up as a bright juicy berry shade on me. 


Which ones are your favourite shades?

    1. That's annoying, have you tried Superdrug? I find they sometimes have more of a variety than Boots, especially when some shades in Boots still seem to sell out super quick when they're re-stocked x

    1. I love Tutti Frutti, just waiting for some nice weather so I wear it more! Which lipstick is that? x

  11. I'm still not sick of reading about these, lol! :) I do love the colour of Peach Parfait but I wish the gold glitter was toned down (or not there). Strawberry Shortcake is a lovely shade, I wish it weren't so cool and blue-toned, but I think it has one of the more pigmented and creamy formulations. Tutti Frutti was more orange than I expected, definitely a perfect summery shade! Candy Apple is a really wearable red and Berry Smoothie is a nice everyday colour :)

    1. Yay :) It seems that whenever I open up my Blog Reader, it's just filled with Lip Butter posts everyday, so I'm glad people aren't bored of them yet! Although I like the glitter in Peach Parfait, I do wish they'd made a shade without it too, definitely would have bought that as well :)
