I haven’t been wearing a lot of lipgloss of late, favouring lipsticks. I haven’t been too impressed with many of the lipglosses I’ve encountered lately. However, this particular lippie changed my mind. I’m talking about Revlon’s ColorBurst lipgloss. The one I had the opportunity to try out was in Hot Pink.

The Hot Pink Vibrant Rose is just as its name suggests. It’s a gorgeous bright, cool-toned pink with silver shimmer. It’s highly pigmented, and not too sticky, just the way I like it. I’ve learned to gently press my lips together after application, instead of rubbing it together as I always used to do. That way, the lipgloss stays a lot longer on the lips.
I like that the applicator is quite flat and fat in comparison to most doe-foot applicators I’ve seen and used. It spreads the gloss out much better on my lips compared to the skinny applicators.
Don’t really know why the bottom of the tube was labeled “Hot Pink Rose Vibrant” though. When I was Googling for swatches, this was labeled Hot Pink. Could mine be a lemon? Hmm… (Update: Reader Jackie kindly enlightened me on why there are two names: Rose Vibrant is Hot Pink in French! 
)
Face: Revlon Age Defying with DNA Advantage in #25 Medium Beige
Eyes: Urban Decay NAKED Palette in Naked, Estee Lauder Pure Color Liquid Eyeliner in Graphite
Cheeks: NARS Exhibit A
Lips: Revlon ColorBurst Lipgloss in Hot Pink
I’m loving this lipgloss mucho. Can’t wait to get my hands on more shades to play with!
Revlon ColorBurst lipglosses retail at AU$22 each.

I really like the Revlon colour burst lip glosses. I have a few myself and I love all of them. Unlike a few other brands I won’t name, these ones really deliver and each of them more vibrant than the last!

Celeste: I can’t wait to try out more of the glosses. I have a couple of the ColorBurst lipsticks, and they’re good stuff too.

Xin: Is it expensive in Malaysia? I thought it wouldn’t be. How much is it? Well, I guess in comparison to freakin’ AU$22 (that’s what, RM66? Chee sin!), it wouldn’t be too bad. Maybe I should just ask my mum to get it for me, since she’ll be here early Oct.
Really LOVE the color! Such a bright, gorgeous color makes me feel that I’m young again!!

I love Hot Pink on you, Tine! Your lips and cheeks are the perfect combo! <3

Jess: Aww thanks Jess. To be honest, I wasn’t sure of the combo. NARS Exhibit A is orange, this lippie’s pink. Didn’t know if it would work. It looked all right in the pictures, which is good
You look lovely Tine……hot pink looks pretty on you!I have this lipgloss in Peony and love it too

This is a good colour, I have some of the Medusa lipglosses which are great and not expensive. I might send you a Medusa gloss and a Limecrime Lipstick to try? I only wear a gloss sometimes, many I found were a little sticky but I liked the Medusa ones as they were not sticky and they have pigment that lasts. How long did the relvon colour last?
cheers
Jill
Jill: Thanks Jill, wouldn’t mind giving the Medusa one a go
The Revlon one lasts until I have a meal. If I don’t, then it stays on for at least a couple of hours without re-application.
So bright and pretty, love it!

Jackie: Thank you thank you thank you! I had no idea, was wondering why there were two names. I’ll update the post accordingly
It looks so lovely on you! I was eyeing this same shade by Addiction, Japan’s answer to NARS….I like Revlon products…they have good quality cosmetics at drugstore prices…

Astrorainfall: Thanks! Oooh Addiction? Don’t think I’ve heard of that before. I may have seen it in Jap mags though. Time to Google!
Damn that’s pigmented for a gloss! Love how it looks on you, and love the makeup you’re wearing here.
