Review: Revlon Colorburst BalmStain

Pretty color, isn't it? :D

I have been searching for one perfect light pink shade for my lips. I have one pink lipstick before from Etude's minnie range. But it is probably a better match for people with cooler tone than me. For me, that one is too 'pinkish'. 

Last month, I went out with my friend, Sylvia, to eat gelato. She posted about our trip and what flavors we got to taste on her blog since it was 'all-you-can-eat'. We may eat as many as we want. You can check her blog on sylvlam.blogspot.com 

Okay, back to our topic. After eating, we went to Parkson to check out some things and saw this Revlon Colorburst BalmStain. There were so many colors to choose from. At first, I didn't plan to purchase (although I have tried it on my hand and thought it was a pretty color), remembering how many lipstick I had owned and not even finished every half tube of them. Sylvia and I had headed to parking lot before we stopped at the main gate, and decided to go back to the counter. I mean what's wrong with us? Why did we have to reach the main gate and decided that we wanted it?

I was so tempted to purchase it because the first time I tried on the back of my hand, it looked glossy like usual lipgloss. Then I put it back to check out other things. Probably it was about two metres from the counter, I checked the back on my hand and it was not glossy anymore. It became like stain, not sticky at all. And when I slightly rubbed it, the color was still there. How cool that is! I never saw a stain like that before. And the color was so pretty >.< It is 025 in Sweetheart Valentine

So, this is a retractable chubby crayon which makes it more interesting to use. I get the feeling to 'color' my lips with jumbo pencil color. Haha.. I have tried it for several times and I think the staying power is amazing!!! It won't come off even after I had my drink or foods. I have a habit to wipe my lips during my meals which means there will be more than three swipes. I check my lips after my meals and it was still there, except the gloss. It is called 'balmstain' afterall. It will turn to stain after a while, but the color is still there for real. Just put some lipgloss if you like a glossier look.

Tell me in the comment section what do you think of this if you have tried one :D

Thanks for reading :)
