Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain


When I first saw this lipstain, I was drawn by its unique shape, which is just like a crayon (which unfortunately mine has turn into a flat shape). There are actually 3 ranges of Revlon’s lipstain in this form, which are Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain, Lacquer Balm and Matte Balm. I picked Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain since in my opinion, it’s the one with the most natural look, and I was looking for a daily wear lipstick.

I swatched some of the shades at store and I fell in love with one of its shade, Honey. The shade is a pretty pink, kinda rosey that does not look too bright or too dark on my lips, a beautiful colour if you are looking for a natural shade. Romantic looks like a good shade too if you want something that is more red (I might want to try that one out next time).
I bought it for RM 35.90 which is about $11 at Watson. When I apply it, it feels so moisturizing that I don’t think I need to use lip balm beforehand. It also leaves minty taste after applying which doesn't really bother me since it lingers only for a little while. The staying power is also great. After 5 hours, you can still see it on your lips even though it may have faded just a little bit. However, I do notice that if I use lip balm before applying it, the staying power won’t last that long. Maybe because this lipstick is kind of oily itself, and by adding lip balm, it becomes much easier for it to slip off my lips. The packaging is great, as the cap doesn’t easily come off in my bag even if it’s outside the makeup pouch. However, the label might fade after a while which what happened to mine, as you can see in the picture above. You can see the nicer version below.

All in all, this lipstick is perfect for a daily use since not only it gives you nicely coloured lips that lasts for a long time, but also moisturizes your lips. The shade Honey is great if you want a nice pink colour that looks natural on your lips. Bonus tip, it can also be used as a cheek stain in case you don’t bring your blusher wherever you go and need a little bit of touch up in the middle of the day.
