Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in Pink Truffle - Review, Photos & Swatches

With everyone raving so much about these lip butters, I couldn't stop myself from picking up a shade. I wanted to pick up a couple of them more but, by the time I went to the store, the display was close to empty. I grabbed a very safe, everyday pinkish brown shade called Pink Truffle.

Pink Truffle is great if you have pigmented lips like me. I love the way it turns out on my lips. It's the perfect MLBB shade for me and would look great against most skin tones. Texture wise, the lip butter feels like a hybrid between a lip balm and a glossy lipstick. It is very pigmented for a lip butter and goes on smooth, almost like a less slick, less glossier version of the MAC Sheen Supreme Lipsticks. If you have extremely dry lips, be sure to exfoliate well since it has a tendency to enhance lip dryness. Once applied it is very moisturizing, feels light and stays on for about 2 hours.

Although I love the packaging, the product feels a little too creamy and gets deposited on the sides of the tube when retracting it back. It is a little squishy too & gets really messy after a couple of uses. I love creamy lip products but, I just wish it was a little less messier. There's also a very slight vanilla scent that quickly fades.


Overall, they do a great job for the price(anywhere between $6-$7.49 depending on where you buy), soften lips really well and the shade range is just amazing. I believe there are around 20 shades that will be added permanently to the Revlon lip product range. If you can't decide which one to pick up first, Pink Truffle is a great everyday, subtle shade that I would recommend for just about anyone. I would love to pick up a shade or two more when I find a well stocked display.

    The Revlon Lip Butters are going to be the death of me. When the range hits Canada, I will have at least 10 of them!
