This weekend, I took a very rare trip to Ulta and got myself into some kinda trouble!
First of all-my favorite eyeshadows of ALL TIME-the Lorac baked ones-were on sale for just $9 but were sold out! So sad about that missed opportunity, but I kept looking.
I plan on doing a run-down of all the goodies I picked up, but for now I want to discuss the new Revlon Just Bitten Lipstain & Lip Balm.
I'm a girl who generally won't purchase lipsticks because I feel the need to reapply at the most inconvenient times! I'm a busy girl and don't always have the time to whip out my purse, find my cosmetics bag, find the right shade, etc etc. I've been hearing a lot about lip stains, and have even owned a few in past years, so I decided to try the newest thing on the market.
I picked up the shade Midnight which is a deep, rich plum red color. To be quite honest, the only reason I went for a dark shade was because it was on sale. I do like the color, but it is very dark for my tastes.
On one end, you get a felt tip marker with the actual stain in it. I really like this and find that it gives you a precise line. On the other, you get a translucent balm. I wish that it twisted up and down and the consistancy could be a bit silkier, but it's not bad. I think it does the job well and you can always use Burt's Bees, Soft Lips, or your choice of balm instead.
The staying power is absolutely unreal! I couldn't get the stain off with makeup remover, olive oil and sugar, or Biore facial scrub. This is kind of a downfall, especially if you don't want to wear the color all day.
All-in-all, I like this product and would probably repurchase it in lighter colors which are hopefully easier to remove.
Have you tried it? What did you think?
