Review...Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains

Hey There Beautifuls,



Left: 001 Honey Right: 005 Crush

I'm Going to jump on the Kissable balm stain bandwagon and I come bearing crappy Iphone pics n all! Yay! :D

I was browsing through superdrug oblivious to the release of these and spotted them...I have to say I stood a little dumbfounded for a minute and I was good and walked away (only to rush back the next day and buy the above shades...)
Yes I have no restraint or self control...

I have to say I'm really impressed with these, they have a minty smell which I like, and obviously the packaging is comparable to that of the infamous Clinique Chubby sticks.  They're currently on offer in both Boots and Superdrug for £5.99 which is an introductory offer (RRP will be £7.99)

The consistency is quite balmy to begin with but then turns a little bit waxy but the colour pay off is pretty good and wear-time is approx 4-6 hours before you need to reapply with eating and drinking which I can live with and I haven't experienced that 'drying-settle-in-the-lines' feeling which gives them a big thumbs up for me! :D

I initially wanted to pick up the Orange shade but I thought I'd step out of my comfort zone a little bit with these and I've not regretted it yet.

Have any of you tried the Kissable Balm Stains and if so what are your thoughts?

Until Next Time

Ciao For Now Beautifuls!

    I really want to give these a go, but sadly they have not been released in Australia yet! I'm on a spending ban otherwise I would have picked some up on eBay! They look gorgeous, loving the colours you got! I would have loved an orange coloured one too! :)

    I picked one up in Cherish when I was in the States a couple of weeks ago and I am in LOVE with everything about it! I can't wait to spot them in Canada because I want so many more colours!

    I bought the Honey shade today, actually. I love the sent, the consistency and pigmentation but the colour wasn't for me unfortunately, it was a tad dark; i'm more of a nude lipstick girl,

      Awww no, that's such a shame, maybe layer a good nude lipgloss over the top? but I do agree, the scent, pigmentation are lovely. thanks for commenting Hun xoxo
