Revlon's Just Bitten Lip Balm Stain have been getting a lot of attention recently, probably for three reasons: 1. It's Emma Stone's first Revlon campaign. 2. They're like a bargain Clinique Chubby Stick and 3. They are really very good.
So what are they? What you see is what you get basically - lip balm crossed with lip stain! A moisturising, creamy formula that leaves a strong sweep of lasting colour ( I mean lasting colour too, when it says stain, you get a stain).
[The bright pink one is Lovesick and the orangey one is Rendezvous]
They're really easy to use too - the chubby crayon means the colour is easy to control and apply, and you can play with the intensity too - dab on and work into lips to get a 'just bitten' (see what they did there) flush, or keep layering up for a glossy true, opaque colour. If you usually steer clear of stains because they can accentuate dry lips, this'll be right down your street since it's a balm. Oh and it's scented with mint too (not flavoured, it doesn't taste of mint sadly, I tested it for you). Also don't worry about finding a giant sharpener to go with it - the silver end twists up more of the product.
Really good product, and I'd recommend getting it over the Chubby Stick since they're half the price and just as good quality. In fact, right now they're £5.99 here at Boots (they're usually £7.99) so maybe get two!
