Revlon first started selling lipstick in 1939. They created "Super Lustrous" as we now know it back in 1961 and it remains a fan favourite today with one sold every four minutes in the US. So how does the formula perform? With Revlon bringing out a whole host of new shades, finishes and collections, I had to get my hands on them and do a little test.
I tried three of the new Super Lustrous Lipstick in the Crème formula in shades Flushed, I got Chills and Dramatic.
They also have a new Super Lustrous Matte, and have improved their Super Lustrous The Gloss.
Revlon New Super Lustrous Lipstick in Crème formula in Dramatic (end of the day), Flushed (midday) and I got Chills (freshly applied) |
Pros:
- A truly creamy formula with gorgeous, rich pigmentation.
- No unnecessary shine or shimmer.
- Comfortable for dry lips, almost balmy in terms of smoothness.
- Doesn't feather easily and wears off well throughout the day/night.
- A very wide array of shades - great for every skin tone.
- Can be found at affordable pricepoints especially at Loblaws Superstore, Walmart, etc. and one tube lasts a long time.
Cons
- The bullets are very soft. A few of mine actually started to move and squish at the base upon first swatch. I'm not a very rough person so this was surprising.
- Can get on the teeth easily.
- Can look a bit patchy since it is not a particularly long-wearing formula.
These lipsticks are so much fun. I adore the classic packaging, and the delicious, candy-coloured shades.
