Shiny Berry Lips for Fall
*Purchased
Revlon lip butter in Raspberry Pie ($7.49 for 0.09 oz.) is a medium dark berry pink with loads of shine. I would basically describe this as a tinted balm on steroids. This stuff packs a punch. Its super pigmented and the color pay off is better than any other tinted balm I've ever used. When I tested this out, I was suffering from severe dry lips and I'm happy to say that this stuff is really moisturising. I definitely saw my lips increase in volume due to the moisture from the lip butter.
I would still suggest exfoliating before wearing this and if you have mature lips I recommend using a lip liner to prevent feathering. I have rather small lips and I did find it kind of tedious to apply because of the oval lipstick shape. I guess I'm just one of those girls who likes the tradition pointed lipstick bullet. This is definitely one of those lipsticks you need to apply with a mirror or else you could end up with a clown face. Since this is a highly pigmented balm and it glides very easily on the lips, the wear time will be shorter. Its not a long lasting lip color. The end result is a very shiny lip so if your looking for matte berry stain, I would not suggest this particular product. If glossy plumped up lips is your goal then this is your lipbutter:)
I was searching around in my makeup bag and I think I found a decent lip pencil match: NYX Lipliner Pencil in 836 BLOOM.
