Lipglosses for a Lipgloss Snob, Part 2: Revlon Colorburst Lipgloss in Peony and Bordeaux.

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.

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?

  1. Woah, I never would’ve thought they would be so nice on! And not sticky – I’m going to have to get me some of that.

    Do you find they dry out your lips after the gloss has worn off? That’s usually the problem for me and glosses.

    Bordeaux looks amazing for your coloring!

  2. the perfect lips strike again! ;) Love both of these on you. I purchased Bordeaux last fall but Peony looks like a lovely spring neutral! These are probably my favorite drugstore gloss :)
    P.S. Black Cherry + Bordeaux = where have you been all my life??

  3. Agreed. Your lips are perfect. Photoshop perfect. Women-bring-a- picture-of-your-lips-to-the-plastic-surgeon-cause-they’re-perfect perfect. Seriously.
    And the pigments in the Revlon are great aren’t they?
