The Red Lip Series: Revlon Wine Not Matte Lipstick

Today’s red lip post is on Revlon’s Wine Not lipstick. This is a true matte lipstick which I find can be very drying on the lips. I had exfoliated before applying this lipstick and it still looks horrible after I applied.

 

This lipstick is acquired taste for sure. To me, it’s very “silent-film-esque” –a very deep brown/ red color. It’s super intense and kinda takes on a “gothic” feel on my NW20 skin tone. I remember being quite fond of this color last year but swatching it and trying it on for today’s blog post–I’m sot so sure about it now. I think it would look better on a darker skin tone for sure!

I thought it’d be funny to include this photo of me wearing Revlon’s Wine Not lipstick in black & white–see?! It’s very Silent Film-esque! Now all I need is a short bob hair cut & a finger wave! *lol* xoxo

My Incredible Bonne Bell Collection!!

My Bonne Bell Lip Collection

My Bonne Bell Lip Collection




Now this is pretty hilarious to look at but this is my Bonne Bell collection!!! As I like to say, I have rekindled my love affair with Bonne Bell. I have acquired most of it within the last 6-7 months. I am a huge fan of the Bonne Bell Lip Lites & Lip Shakes. But I do have other items such as the Lip Frosting, Lip Balms, Lip Smackers, and so on… I really love flavored lip glosses, especially ones that are priced on the cheaper side ;-)


Believe it or not, some of these lip glosses can look as good as a higher end glosses. I do adore my MAC lipglasses however,  they are a little pricey and Bonne Bell is a cheaper alternative.  In order to achieve a high end look, you usually have to apply a few coats. I usually like to reapply every hour or so. I know a lot of gals don’t want to be bothered with reapplying gloss so frequently but I really don’t mind.  The delicious flavors make up for the fact that you have to reapply every so often.


The Lip Shakes tend to be more on the creamer side, I prefer to wear these in the winter. Most of my Bonne Bell glosses are pretty sheer and I prefer that  because 99.9% of the time, I have some sort of smoky eye going on.


If you are a person that loves scented glosses & if you do not mind reapplying, then I totally recommend that you try out the Bonne Bell lip products!
