When it comes to lip products, Revlon seem to be nailing it these days, and in my book they can do no wrong. The latest addition to the Colorstay (I really, really don't like the missing 'u' in colour!) collection are the new Moisture Stains, liquid lip colours with a glossy finish and a balmy, non-sticky consistency.
I absolutely loved the look of the packaging, which is sleek and handily shows the colour of the product inside, and just had to pick a couple of these up on Saturday, in the shades LA Exclusive and Cannes Crush. They didn't disappoint, and are so hydrating and comfortable to wear - I would say even nicer than the YSL Glossy Stains. The pigmentation isn't super strong, but very much buildable, and the glossy finish is so pretty. I love that the colour fades evenly after a few hours wear, leaving my lips feeling really soft. Fleur de Force suggested in her review that the product can apply looking gloopy, and the best thing to do is use the wide doe foot to really work the product into the lips for an even coat of colour, then add a second coat. I would agree that LA Exclusive particularly needed to be applied in this way, so don't be alarmed if they don't look perfect in one swipe.
Cannes Crush is a shimmer-free coral pink, and is more pigmented.
I am so glad I bought these, and they have become instant favourites. The consistency is so lovely to wear, and unlike anything else I own. They are exactly what I wanted Benefit to make when they turned their tints into lip products. Have you tried any of the Moisture Stains? Or will you be picking one up?
Oh my golly!! Cannes Crush looks absolutely beautiful. I want it!! Nope, correction, I need it!!

Wanted to buy LA exclusive but was worried it'd be too bright. For what I see on ur lip swatch it's quite sheer and pretty. Will have another look. X

It is such a lovely shade! I kind of want to go back and get a couple more, but then I want to get some use out of these first! x
ReplyDeleteI'm not normally a fan of lip glosses but these look gorgeous! The pigment is amazing :)

Yes, it's weird because they aren't really like a lipgloss at all, but they give that glossy look without any tackiness whatsoever! x
ReplyDeleteOh wow that pink shade is gorgeous, I so want to get my hands on these xx

They are really lovely, you should definitely give them a try! Thanks for reading Gemma :)
ReplyDeleteYes, they are just the right kind of sheer! I want to try out some of the darker shades now. I keep buying Summery lip colours at the minute, forgetting that in a few weeks I'll be over Summer and wanting some more Autumnal shades! xx
ReplyDeleteThey're both really gorgeous colours! The formula sounds really nice too! xx
ReplyDeleteI am really pleased with the shades I picked! The formula is the best part though, it's just so unique. xx
ReplyDeleteLooks gorgeous on you! I've never tried the Moisture Stains, but I want to!
ReplyDeleteI love your blog xx

ReplyDeleteThe formula of both sounds really nice and exactly like what I am looking for in any kind of lipgloss/stain. Also Cannes Crush just looks absolutely gorgeous on you.
