Revlon-a-thon #3 : Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain


Keeping up with my Revon-a-thon, here are the Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain. These lip sticks were a big collective hype in the beauty community all around Youtube. And I fully understand why! The first lip stick I tried was from Lise Watier, it was called Lip Kiss Crayon Gloss but it got discontinued. Those are a more glossy lip product that wears pretty easily but the Revlon ones are true stains.

I first got the nude color called Charm (035) and I really liked it so a couple of days later I went out and bought Sweetheart (025). A feature that I really enjoy about the Balm Stains is that you just have to twist the end part to get the product out, so no need to find a sharpener that's big enough to fit them! The only thing is, they will get flat s no more precision with them after a while. The fact that the color of the packaging is almost identical as what the colors of the balm is is very convenient when you look trough your collection. You see right away what the color is and it's faster for "on the go". I have to say that I don't like the smell of these (minty sent) but that is just my personal preference because it's quite a strong smell. If you enjoy minty lip products, this is great. The two shades that I own a really different but I feel like the first pay off is good for both. Charm is very nude on me since I'm so pale but during the day, it turns very pink on my lips and I don't really like that. I don't find myself reaching for these products very often because of the scent and the fact that Charm changes color when I wear it. 

I would say that this is a really great product that Revlon came out with, it's just not my thing. The color selection is awesome and there is a color for everyone in the line. I think that everybody can use the Balm Stains even beginners because they are easy to use and they stay on, so no touch-ups! Only downside for me : the strong minty scent. Which may be a nice touch for you if you like it!
