Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains (Romantic, Smitten, Darling, Honey)


 

Romantic, Smitten, Darling, Honey







Romantic is the most sheer of all of these colors,  and leans rather orange for a red. Smitten is quite bright with a cool undertone, builds rather opaque, and stains very well. Darling is a lilac with a pink undertone that stains your lips the pink undertone color, not the lilac. However Darling is a lot more wearing than other lilac/lavender type colors and much more flattering because of the subtle pink undertone. I do recommend Darling if you're looking for a nice lilac type lip color. Honey is a beautiful soft rose, however it stains your lips darker than the initial color, more of a dark rose.

L'oreal Fairest Nude

This cult lipstick has always looked not quite right for me, but realizing I don't have a basic go-to nude lipstick anymore/combined with my love of l'oreal lip products, I decided it was worth a try.


It looked darker when I first opened it than I had expected it to, I had hopes it would have enough color to be something on my lips, but still a soft pretty something.


It turned out a lot lighter on my lips than I thought it would. Which didn't end up being a very good thing, it wasn't fully opaque and you could see streaks of my lip under it, it clung to my dry skin on my lips a bit, not the worst ever but still something I like to avoid to any extent. The color against my skin tone I thought wasn't very flattering, it was rather dull looking, and too light to be a complimentary nude lip.

Over all it's not the worst lipstick I've ever used, it was very moist, but I can't say I was happy with it either. If anyone knows of any nude lipsticks good for my skin tone leave me a comment!

Baby product LOVE

My kids have literally asked for this product by name, many many times, and over every other cream option given to them. Burt's Bees Baby Bee Diaper Ointment! It soothes, protects, heals, and is safe and natural! If you haven't given it a try your baby will love you for it!



*I have not been paid or given free diaper cream to say this, it really is the best!*
