Revlon - ColorBurst - Lacquer Balm - Vivacious

The colour is amazing! 
And this is so moisturising.

Over nude lips.

It also has a soft minty scent, which is so pleasant.
The packaging is an easy wind-up.

It comes of when you eat/drink, but is otherwise long lasting.

But be warned, this is not kiss-proof at all! You will leave kiss marks on people/things.
It also stains the lips (which I personally like).

Price: 5/5 ($4.50)
Scent: 5/5
Effectiveness: 5/5

Revlon - ColorStay - Ultimate Suede Lipstick - 095 Finale

I got this for free and I'm glad I didn't pay for it.

It is not very colour intense, you need to apply multiple coats to get good coverage.

Top: one pass.
Bottom: multiple passes. Note the uneven application.

Even then it isn't truly opaque, you cannot overdraw your lips with this!

It also tends to clump on any loose skin you have on you lips (if they are chapped) and fades off quicker from the mouth side of the lip than the skin side, leaving a not-sexy ombré.

However, it is true to its name. 
Not soap, nor food, nor hell or water will get this off!

This is my current go-to work lip, because it is a good colour for work and I don't want use a nicer lipstick! Hahahaha!

Price: 2/5 ($26.95 for 2.55g of disappointment)
Scent: 2.5 (nothing noticeable)
Effectiveness: 0.5/5

 L'Oréal Paris - Color Riche L'Extraordinaire- 401 Fuschia Drama

This is a gloss with a moderate colour pay off (more than what you would expect from a gloss).
The colour does end up staining a little, which could be good or bad depending on what you want.

To show you how colour intense it is.

Swatch!

Stain left by swatch!

Full lip application!

It is very shiny, but will catch your hair. (just like glosses are known to do!)

It has a faint chemically-cake smell and has a large, flocked doe-foot applicator.

For the full price of the product, I don't think it is worth it.
(I got mine on sale for $2, so I can live with this.)

Revlon - Ultra HD - Matte Lipcolour - Love

This is my go-to colour to wear at work. 
(It may seem a bit bold for work, but trust me, it really works)

This is a true fire-engine red, not too blue or orange.
It isn't what I would call a true matte as it keeps some shine.
I'd call it a satin.

Science Fiction, Double Feature!

It has a really good colour intensity, lasts at least 6 hours (with eating), isn't drying, and does stain a little. 
(Which I like, I always want to hide my blue lips. I don't have anaemia, my lips are just often blue)

A swatch!

Just know that the container is a bit frosted, so the shade that goes on your lips doesn't look like it does from the bottle.

It also has a faint vanilla cake smell, which is nice!
