These have been out for a few years now but I only recently discovered them a couple of months ago as I began my quest to discover some high street gems. Initially I came across a blog (can’t remember for the life of me what it was called now), but the writer had posted a FOTD and her lipgloss of choice was Revlon Super Lustrous lipgloss in Wild About Violet. It looked gorgeous and that was it, I was sold!
I’ve acquired quite a few of them, mostly through Ebay at really cheap prices. Brand new and sealed too, I might add.
The colours provide sheer to medium colour payoff which can be built up by adding additional coats. The consistency is smooth on application and makes for a lovely daytime lipgloss. I don’t find these lipglosses drying on my lips like the MAC lipglasses can be at times and they give a really nice natural shine.
They last pretty well, though will generally need reapplying after meals. The packaging is sleek and makes the gloss look far more expensive that it is too.
They’re great for layering over lipsticks too without shifting your lip colour and make a lovely addition to a Summer (or Winter) make up look as they don’t feel heavy on the lips at all. An added bonus is that they also come with SPF15.
These are the shades I own:
2nd row: Shine City (basically a shiny top coat with silver shimmer), Tickled Pink, Le Chic Peach, Life’s a Peach, Toast to Shine.
3rd row: High Beam Tan, Coffee Gleam
They come in about 8 different shades instore but you can easily find lots of LE/discontinued shades on Ebay.
Tip: Wild About Violet looks divine over lilac lipsticks so all the MAC Lavender Whip fans need this shade in their lives!
Price £6.35
Where can I find them? Boots, Superdrug
I have Foiled and Cherries in the Glow. I love Revlon as well as these lipgloss’ they’re beautiful and so smooth.
