About 5 years ago, it was nearly impossible to find a lipstick that
actually stood on your lips for longer than 15 minutes. I stopped
wearing and buying lipstick because I got sick of wasting money on
lipsticks that promised budge free color, only to find that it did not
last long at all, and I got sick of re-applying it over and over again
throughout the day.
Cosmetic companies however have changed over the years, and most of
them live up to their promise. Revlon in particular has been a cosmetic
favorite of mine due to the long last, the vivid colors, and the fact
that everything they have on the market goes on easily, stays put, and
looks fantastic. Lately I have been exploring their many lipstick and
lip stain options.
My new favorite, hands down, belongs to Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Cherries In The Snow (440).
Unfortunately when I came across this lipstick I could only judge it
based on what I could see in the tube. The clear lid allowed me to peek
inside and spy a pretty looking color, a plumish pink, with a vivid
blast of red in the color as well.
I wished I could have sampled it on my hand before buying it, as I
have picked up lip colors that looked bright and colorful in the tube,
yet when applied the color is weak. I took my chances on Cherries In The
Snow (440), though because Rite Aid had a buy one, get one 50% off
sale. So normally a $7.99 lipstick was sold for half that.
The Color:
When I finally got home, I couldn't wait to try this one out. I
applied the lipstick and was dazzled by how bright, beautiful, rich and
colorful Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Cherries In The Snow (440)
was.
It floods your lips with a deep bloody magenta color, with a pretty
purplish pink. It's deep, it's dark, it's bold and it is daring. However
bright colors are the latest trend, and if you can work these new
bright rich colors, than you will definitely want to give this one a
try.
The color as it fades a little turns into a brighter pink, which is also beautiful.
Last:
This bright pink lasts though, and this is what makes this lipstick one of my latest favorites.
I get around 5 hours of continuous color till fading becomes too much,
and I need to re-apply. The color however is so rich and beautiful that
re-applying it is not a nuisance or aggravation. I can drink and eat
with this one on, and the color still manages to maintain it's stay,
with little to no fading at all.
Texture:
When I first applied Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Cherries In The
Snow (440) it went on smooth and soft, leaving lips feeling natural
with moisturization. The texture is not gross or at all bothersome.
After a few minutes this moisturized texture fades leaving your lips
feeling as natural as they would had there been no lipstick applied at
all. It's worry free, budge proof lipstick.
Overall:
Beautiful rich coloring, natural feel on the lips, and a long last is
what you can expect from Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Cherries In
The Snow (440). This one is now my top favorite and managed to win me
over in place of my last favorite Maybelline 24. It's more natural, less
dry feeling, and so much brighter! 10 out of 10 stars from me!
