MAC Tendertons

I never knew about MAC Tendertones until recently when they were re-promoted in the Cook MAC collection. During my previous visit to MAC, I nearly bought it in the colour Hush, Hush but decided not to right before I paid.

They do smell very fruity and seems to be quite moisturizing, but I'm personally not a huge fan of potted lip products (hygienic reasons) and weirdly, I already have too much... Anyways, here is a picture of what they look like:

It is likely that they would be sold out in your MAC, but they are still available in most of my MAC stores so... possible giveaway? ;)

Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter - Review & Swatches

I first heard about the Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter through beauty gurus on Youtube. They were launched in Hong Kong about 2-3 months ago, so I went ahead and bought 4 of them.


I would say that the packaging is quite nice for a drug store product and the colour payoff is also amazing for a lip butter. However the name "lip butter" may be misleading as they are definitely not as moisturizing, so you may have to apply an actual lip balm before this if your lips are super dry.

095 Creme Brulee, 025 Peach Parfait, 001 Pink Truffle, 040 Red Velvet 


Please excuse the colour stain on the tubes, I have been using them for a while now! 


Creme Brulee and Peach Parfait has a sheer finish to it. Peach Parfait also has gold glitter in it which is quite pretty when you first apply it, but once the colour wears off, you'll be left with sparkles on your lips which isn't exactly attractive! Pink Truffle and Red Velvet on the other hand is a lot more pigmented.

What do you think about this product? Have you tried it yet? If not would you consider purchasing it? 
Let me know in the comments below! :)

P.S.
See the Invisible Children, stop KONY.
