In a previous post about these amazing Lip Butters I gave you a run down on what exactly they are and how wonderful they are....so i'll do it again just to let you know...AGAIN :p
In 2011 Revlon released their Colourburst Lip Butters which thereafter received exremely high ratings from almost everyone who tried them. Youtube basically lit up with Revlon Lip Butter raves and from the time they were released they've been too hot to stay on the shelves for very long.
I managed to get my hands on ONE when I was in TX in Oct/Nov 2011 and I'm still in love with it. I only bought one because, I'm not really one to just go on hype, I need to try it myself and it made no sense for me to buy all the colours then realise it isn't that great. Well, it was better than great...Revlon Lip Butters are just AMAZING. After the first swipe on my lips I wished I had bought them all since they weren't released where I live yet.

The Lip Butters are a smooth, silky, super moisturizing almost-lipstick (and look like one too with packaging just like Revlon's Colourburst Lipsticks). They give a beautiful shine and glide on so smoothly...like butter ;)
A few of the shades are extremely sheer but some others are quite pigmented. The ones that are very pigmented have more colour than a tinted lipbalm, and almost as much colour as a normal lipstick. *Think MAC Lustre finishes*
They give your lips a beautiful wash of colour you can SEE.
My absolute favourite is "Berry Smoothie", a your-lips-but-better colour. I've been skimping on using it for a few weeks now just because I'm almost out of it...THEN (dun dun dunnnn) the distributers of Revlon in my country released them! WOOHOO!
Now everyone here can get them...well, almost everyone.
Within a day of them being released to one of our largest pharmacy chains the displays were almost cleaned out! Apparently word spread of how amazing they are. Literally out of maybe 50+ on a display rack, about 5 would still be there (in colours like creme brulee etc)...all the Candy Apple, Cherry Tart, Red Velvet, Raspberry Pie, Lollipop, Tutti Frutti and Berry Smoothie GONE. These were just introductory display packs and the full monty will reach us in late March!
