I am scared of the color orange. I have recently dipped my toe into the
"Pantone Color of the Year Pool" by wearing the color on my nails, but that was as far as I had gone...until now.
Revlon
'Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain' in
Rendezvous is a pretty tangerine color. I decided to just take a leap of faith and try it out, because it is the hot summer color and all that jazz.
I was mostly interested in this product because of its resemblance to those cute
Clinique chubby sticks that I have been eyeing. This is a cheaper version. It comes in a twist up tube that is sharpened like a fat crayon. Love.
This baby is
$7. There are many more colors, and it is a mix between a lipstick and a colored balm. The 'Twilight' font on it is a little gimmicky though.
See swatches after the jump!
Hearts on hearts on hearts. This is sheer-ish but fresh. There is a slight minty smell that reminds me of the
Tarte version of these.
YAY! It is flattering. Not too orange, but different and fresh. Summery. Unique. I like.
Me being silly :) But it is a good pic of how the color looks in natural light. This lasts about
2 hours on me, but leaves my lips quenched. Pretty standard for a balm with color. Very comfortable.
Final Thoughts: Check these out! I love this color, and the formula.
