Hi, my name is Arianne and I am a lipgloss snob. I shy away from goopy, sticky lips. I love the shine even though Mr. Glitter Geek says “it looks like you ate a greasy hamburger and didn’t wipe your mouth.” Articulate, that boy is. As a lipstick addict, one of my beauty resolutions this year is to try more lipglosses. Lipglosses for a Lipgloss Snob is a series of posts that highlights my favourite lipgloss formulas at the moment.

Revlon Colorburst Lipglosses in Peony and Bordeaux

I remember when Revlon came out with the Colorburst lipstick line. Everybody raved about them (including me, naturally!) but I didn’t hear much about the lipgloss formula when it came out later on. Just like the well-loved lipstick formula, the Revlon Colorburst Lipgloss (around $10) is worth talking about.

Revlon Colorburst Lipglosses in Peony and Bordeaux

The Revlon Colorburst lipglosses pack a great amount of pigment and shine. Peony is a gorgeous pinky-peach with gold sparkles, while Bordeaux is a stunning deep berry with barely there sparkle. Both colours, worn alone or atop lipstick, are very flattering. Stickiness factor here is zero. Not sticky at all, guys!

Revlon Black Cherry Lipstick + Bordeaux Lipgloss

In my opinion, these are hidden gems at the drugstore. I’d say I love Bordeaux as much as my Chanel Rouge Allure Extrait de Gloss in Fatale. Did I just compare a Revlon to a Chanel just now? Yes, yes I did.

Have you tried these? Do you have a favourite lipgloss from the drugstore?
