First, let's talk about packaging. The packaging of Revlon's Super Lustrous Lipstick line is a classic black plastic tube with a hint of gold in the middle where cap and body meets. When you open it up, the gold part is actually what in-houses the bullet. Brand name - Revlon is printed on the middle part. The tube is easy to open and the cap snaps back in tightly. But what I love most of the packaging is that the top part of the cap is transparent/see-through (you'll see it in the picture below).This way, you can immediately see the shade that you're getting even before you checkout the shade name on the bottom part. On the cap also, you can see basic information like the weight of the product and info about the brand. Sadly, this one has no ingredients printed on it so I took the liberty of finding the list of ingredients for you to check out. :)

Now, let's talk about the shade/color. The one that I have here is the Copperglow Berry. This shade is more of a plum color with coppery shimmers. At first when I saw it, I thought the color was for oldies.LOL!And I even thought that this is not what I ordered in Amazon. I double checked the shade and yes it was the shade that I ordered. In the Amazon photos, this is "better-looking". Nevertheless, I have it already. So I tried to use it and figured, this could work out on parties. It's actually not as bad as I thought it would be. Well this is not really a bad shade at all but for me, this color can be a little bit hard to pull off. Or maybe I just need more practice.tehee! ;D

This lippie has creamy texture and it glides on smoothly on my lips. Pigmentation wise, it's not as opaque as I thought it would be because I tried to swatch this in my hand and it seems opaque enough but when I applied it on my lips, it only gives you sheer-pearl coverage. Or maybe it's because of the creamy texture that it's hard to get an opaque coverage especially when you have lipbalm on. Anyway, the color payoff is still okay. One concern that really bothers me though is the scent. I don't know if it's the same with anyone who have tried this but in my opinion, the scent is too strong and lingers on my lips for a little while. It's the usual lipstick scent but it is "strong". Or maybe it's just me.

Swatches:

1,2,3 swipes

My VERDICT:

Pros

Doesn't dry out your lips (but not as moisturizing either)

Buildable

The packaging is sturdy and travel friendly

Shade of the lipstick can be seen with the see-through cap

The lipstick itself is creamy and glides on smoothly on lips

The shade can be great in special events/party makeup

Cons

Doesn't last long

Pricey

Only gives sheer coverage

Scent is too strong

Shade/color is not for everyday use

How much?

$19.99 - 4.2g

Do I recommend it?

If the cons doesn't bother you at all, then I definitely recommend this to you! ;)

Repurchase?

No.As I've said above, the shade isn't for everyday makeup so I won't be needing this as much. ;)

Where to buy?

You can find it in Amazon and other online stores.

Final thoughts:

I enjoyed trying this lippie but its good days are over.lol.I will have to give this lipstick a rest. I don't go to parties that much so basically, this lipstick for me is useless. I only ordered it when Amazon had this on sale and in picture, it seems tempting enough. But I must say, the shade isn't that bad (it's a matter of personal preference) and the lipstick itself is creamy. This is pricey though. Can't argue with that. But having this in a low price is def a beauty steal!Love seeing this lipstick on my collection! ^____^
