Revlon Lip Butter in Wild Watermelon | Review





Hey girlie's!!!

Recently i ran out of my much loved Revlon Lip Butter in Cotton Candy so i decided to treat myself to another one as i love them so much and i went for 'Wild Watermelon' , it's one of the spring/summer shades and i love it!!!

Wild Watermelon is the perfect summer shade, its a red/coral colour with pinky undertones that funnily enough does resemble the colour of a watermelon. 

I love the fact that all the Revlon Lip Butters I've tried are well pigmented and they just glide on the lips a dream, they honestly feel like a lovely moisturising lip balm. The shade i picked up 'Wild Watermelon' goes on semi opaque but you can build up and intensify the colour if you wish, the lip butters also leave you with lovely light glossy finish to the lips too which i think is lush. As for staying power... It lasted on me around 1-2 hours which isn't exactly long lasting but when you compare it to other branded tinted lip balms id say that's quite good although i have noticed the darker the shade you get the longer it will last. 

The reason i love the Lip Butters so much is because they are just so easy and simple to wear and moisturising at the same time, you don't have to worry about lip liners or glosses over the top, you just pop it on like a lip balm throw it in your bag for top ups as and when u want and your well away... simple!!!

Whats your favourite Revlon Lip Butter??? What did you think???

Pistachio Sundae Time ♥

In April a little 50ml pot of Nip+Fab Pistachio Sundae goodness got dropped onto my doorstep within my Glossy box. When i first saw this in my box i wasn't overly excited, i just thought it would be another standard body butter that wouldn't really impress but would be there if id ran out of my normal body butter's that i use. I have to say i am now totally in love with it and my first thoughts about this little beauty couldn't be more wrong.


Nip+Fab's Pistachio Sundae is a smooth ultra nourishing body butter that smells amazing. The rich creaminess of the body butter helps repair dry dehydrated skin and has a 24 hour moisture boosting additive to keep you feeling pampered and moisturised all day long. The smell of this is also to die for, it has a deep nutty pistachio scent which honestly smells so good you could eat it. 

I love the fact that this body butter just melts straight into your skin, there's no sitting around feeling all sticky or feeling like you cant get dressed as your clothes are going to stick to you, that is one of my pet hates with alot of body moisturisers. This has also been great on my sensitive skin, I've had no problems what so ever.

All in all i love this product and would definitely recommend this to anyone and everyone.

You can pick up the 200ml tub for £8.49, there are also some other gorgeous scents to choose from which I'm definitely going to be purchasing very soon.

Have your tried this??? What did you think???

Glossybox April 2013

Hey girlie's!!!! This month Glossy box teamed up with the lovely Pearl Lowe who designed the gorgeous box inspired by her love for all things vintage and floral and i blooming well love it. 


The contents is all about 'Spring Fever' getting us all ready for the spring/summer that's fast approaching (we hope). Inside my box this month are five gorgeous treats, 2 of which are full size yippee.



♥  Essie Nail Lacquer in Nice Is Nice- I was so excited to see this in my box, I've always wanted to try Essie polishes but I've never been able to bring myself to spend £7.99 on a single nail polish, so the fact i now have a full size one to try out is fab. The shade 'nice is nice' is a muted down pastel lilac colour which is perfect for springtime wear.

♥ Nip & Fab Dry Skin Fix Body Butter in Pistachio Sundae- I must admit I've never tried any Nip & Fab products before so i was thrilled to have this in my box to try out. Firstly the scent is amazing, it honestly smells that nice that i could just taste it. The consistency is more like a thick moisturiser than a body butter but still its gonna be great to get rid of any dry patches on the skin.

♥ Sun Sense Daily Face SPF 50plus- I'm going to save this to try in the Summer on the real hot days, I'm pleased that it says its a matte formula as I'm hoping it's going to be great under foundation and not leave that oily residue that sun lotions usually leave. The one thing that I'm abit miffed about is that because it's facial sun protection your not gonna need a great deal of product each time its applied yet there is not lid or cap, it just has one of those snap off stoppers so once its open there's no closing it which could prove to be annoying.

♥ Model Co Cheek & Lip Tint in Rosy Red- The second full size product in my box and another range I've never tried before but I'm excited to give this a go. I popped a small amount on the back of my hand and it feels like a thin gel formula which rubbed into the skin quickly and easily to leave a nice rosy stain, i also noticed it had a nice berry scent to it which is lush.

♥  Yves Rocher So Elixir Purple Eau de Parfum- Like i said last month, the perfume samples give me the grumps in these beauty boxes as i can always pick samples up for free if i want to try them, however this month you get a little 5ml bottle which is better than the usual one spritz you normally get, as its a little bottle it will be great for your handbag or even on a night out when u only have a small bag with you but u want to take a perfume, so all in all the perfume sample isn't so bad this month. 

All in all I'm pleased with this months box as its a box brimming with new products and ranges to try and 2 full size items, cant be bad.

Revlon Lip Butter Review

Hey girlie's!!!! Today i thought i would share my thoughts on my most loved lip product to date, the Revlon Colourburst Lip Butter.


This is a balm like lipstick that has a medium amount of pigment, I'm not sure how pigmented the rest of the collection is as i have only tryed this one  'Cotten Candy' out. As you can see by the images i LOVE this product and have used most of mine up now, my reason for liking this product so much is the fact its part balm part lipstick so your getting the colour payoff and staying power of a lipstick but also the moisturising feeling of a lip balm. In general I'm not a big lipstick wearer as i hate how most of the time they dry my lips out so when i saw this advertised on TV i went and snapped it up quick as i loved the idea of it. They are super super moisturising and i found even if my lips where abit chapped before application afterwards they looked silky smooth and nourished.  As far as wear goes, on me it lasts around 3 hours unless i eat or drink something then its less, the colour is a real pretty pale pink with a golden sheen to it which i love and is great for day to day wear. Overall I'm really impressed with the quality of this and am defiantly going to repurchase this one and pick more up whilst I'm at it. 

I got mine from my local Superdrug store for £5.99 as it was on an offer at the time but the usual price is around the £7.99 mark.

I hope this was helpful and if i did miss anything out please don't hesitate to ask me in the comments below as ill always reply.

Much love Hayley xXxXx
