Well...it doesn't show up.I literally dug a hole trying to get the warm tint to appear in the swatch, if I take the picture under direct sunlight, you probably won't even be able to see that tad of silver shimmer...
Overall: If you are looking for a balm that provides comfort, moisture,great scent, color and shine,Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Balm is not for you. However, if you like gimmicky patent-pending packaging (more on that later...Yes, I got two of these)and a pretty little pot to stare at all day long, feel free to get it(when it's on sale).
I guess everything looks great on your lips :) x
ReplyDeleteI have the Pink Crystal version. It's true that the colors don't show up, but I find them to be very very moisturizing and give me as much as shine as a lip gloss does...So I love em. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's ridiculous that these are like $8 for a lip balm with no color. Is the texture similar to the L'Oreal HiP Jelly Balms?
ReplyDeleteGio:
ReplyDeleteThings like that happen all the time, at least we have a pretty pan!
Rocaille:
Actually if things look bad, I would just not blog about them (I do have a pearly Maybelline lipstick that looks like iridescent slug on me)...
Amyboo:
I have the pink one as well. I didn't get that much shine though(Although I do love how it looks...on the pan, not lips).
cjx3pooh:
Nope, the closest thing I can find would be potted lip balm/gloss from Bonnie Bell or Wet n Wild, every pre-teen girl has tried that, right? The texture of Jelly Balm (and NYC lip slider, as I find the two similar) is much softer and more moisturizing, not to mention they actually show up!
BTW, I should probably mention that I found it for 2 dollars a piece at my Walgreens (If I paid 8 bucks, this review will be done a little differently...) and that's why I kind of like it.
Aw, boo for it not having a nice orange tint. Thanks for this review!
ReplyDeletelol thanks for the review! I was a bit curious when I saw a stand with these pots!
ReplyDeletePretty lips anyway! :D
ReplyDeletelike it because it looks pretty on your lips and comes in an even prettier pot. if it's not moisturizing, i could just apply a nice lip balm before putting it on.
