Hello again!
Sorry I've been M.I.A. School has become really busy but I have had a few posts lined up for the blog for over a month now so I thought I'd get to them. This post was originally about 3 lip products my sister bought me back in December but they are great colors for spring so this post is perfectly timed ;)
Here are the three beauties! All available at any drugstores/Ulta that carries Revlon and Maybelline.
First up is
Revlon Colorburst Lacquer Balm in Tease- a shiny orange lip crayon with no glitter or shimmer. If the Matte Balms are too drying for you or you're looking for a more wearable orange during the spring/summer then this is for you!
Next we have a
Revlon Lip Butter in Raspberry Pie- this is easier to find in store than online, though I think my sister got it from Amazon. Anyway, this is a very smooth raspberry balm/lipstick. It's quite pigmented and gives a gorgeous color to lips. It's similar to the color "Berry Smoothie" except Berry Smoothie is much more sheer. This is the most pigmented of all the Lip Butters from the swatches I've seen.
Lastly is
Maybelline Baby Lips Electro Lip Balm in Berry Bomb- Not sure if they sell these in stores anymore but you can still find it online. This is the most sheer balm of the three I got. I know lavender lips are in this year but I feel like lavender really isn't my color. However, this color works. It's lavender-esque without looking weird on me because it's so sheer.
Here they are swatched on my hand:

And here they are swatched on my lips (ignore the face demons):
(Berry Bomb)
(Raspberry Pie)
(Tease)
So there you have it! Three very comfortable, affordable, and pretty lip colors for the warmer weather!
