Two reviews coming up of a matte lipstick by revlon and a lipgloss by b. .
Bought B. Brilliant Lipgloss in Morello at £6.99. It goes on as a semi-sheer gloss and provides a rich berry stain. It wears well throughout the day but the pigmentation is poor in the first place. For a gloss it’s surprisingly moisturising so I might use it as a quick replacement for a balm. I think it’s overpriced for what it is and would only wear it as an overcoat over a dark lippie. For value I’d give it 5/10 and for quality again 5/10. Won’t be repurchasing!
Revlon ultra matte lipstick in passion at £8.99 (I bought it in a 3 for 2 offer at Tesco) provides good striking coverage. The lipstick glides on and is easy to apply. The colour is a rich red and I prefer it to conventional lipsticks as I find it easier to put on. One criticism would be that the lipstick doesn’t ‘set’ as it were and wears off throughout the day and leaves smudges. I expect most matte liquid lipsticks to ‘set’ as it were and this one doesn’t which is disappointing. For value I would give it 6/10 and for quality 6/10. Although I’ll wear it again I probably wouldn’t repurchase the product as it wears off throughout day to day activities.
