Revlon review!

Good afternoon!
As you may know from one of my last blogs, I had asked one of my friends who was going to NYC last weekend to pick me up the revlon just bitten kissable balm stains! She could only get her hands on two of the ones I asked for but none the less I'm glad I got them! Unfortunately in Canada they still have yet to come out so that's why I was really excited about them!
The two colours she got me are honey and smitten! Honey being the lighter peachy colour and smitten being the darker pink colour!
First off when I swatched them on my hand, I loved the colour payoff and how moisturizing they were! However one thing I didn't like about them was the scent. Now in the revlon lip butters they don't have a scent which is fine (however I do go crazy for those fruity scents!) however in the just bitten balm stains they smell like plastic! Yuk. Now I'm still going to use them because I think the colour is great and they are very moisturizing when you put them on, but after about 30 min the moisture went away. I don't believe that they are meant to be as moisturizing as much as they are supposed to have the colour last a long time. So if that doesn't bother you then this product will be great! If you want a stain you can simply apply the balm stain and then apply a clear moisturizer because it does tend to dry on the lips after a while.
I also want to mention that when I applied it to my lips, it gave a little bit of a tingling sensation like a lip plumper would give. But after 5 min that feeling went away.
Hope you found this review helpful and I hope to talk to you soon!
