Revlon Super Lustrous Lipglosses

I am not usually a lipgloss  person.  I think I am much more of an eyeshadow and blush person.  I think it has to do with the fact that lipglosses need to be re-applied throughout the day and thus are more high maintenance in my opinion.

With that said, when I do feel like like wearing lipgloss, I have a few favorites that I turn to.  A favorite drugstore brand that I quite enjoy are the Revlon Super Lustrous Lipglosses ($8).  I own four shades, all of which are creams with no glitters.

170 Coral Reef - a bright, soft, orange-coral

200 Lilac Pastelle - a milky, light, lavender

180 Pink Pop - a soft pink

160 Firecracker - an orangey tomato red

These glosses wear really well.  I find them quite moisturizing and very comfortable on the lips.  The color pay off is also pretty good.  These glosses are not sheer (which I like) but they are not opaque either.  They reside somewhere in the middle. The texture is creamy, almost jelly-like.  There is a bit of stickiness (but not overly so) to them which I don't mind (I feel this is what contributes to the staying power of the glosses).  These are not nearly as sticky as my Stila Lip Glazes.  If you are not a fan of sticky glosses then I wouldn't recommend these.

 I wear three out of the four colors as is.  Meaning they are stand alone colors that don't need the help of a lipstick or lipliner to make them work on my skin tone.  The one exception is the Lilac Pastelle which I don't wear on its own.  I actually purchased this shade to use as a neutralizer over any overly warm lip colors.   It works wonderfully to tone down colors that are too bright or too orange and makes them more neutral and thus wearable.
