Review: Revlon Colorburst Lip Gloss

By -
I've been craving citrus lips. I wear bright pink lipstick all the time, so why not try the new trendy bright orange? Please, hold your bravery medals. Not wanting to make a big orange splash, I sought an orange lip gloss. Revlon Colorburst Lip Gloss has a new bright orange called "Sizzle." While being a sheer gloss, it's strongly colored. Here's some info that won't surprise anyone: unlike a lip stain or stick, gloss moves around a lot. While shopping, I also purchased Revlon's red "Fire" shade for a quick retro look. When it moves around and wears off, it leaves me with a slightly blurred mouth that looks like I've been indulging in strawberries. Very nice. When the orange wears off, it looks like I had pasta for lunch. Not so nice.

Anyone looking for a colorific lip gloss should check out this line. The red's pretty great, but with the way the orange wears, I wouldn't recommend it for anyone who already has color in their lips. If your lips run nude all the time, then maybe it won't give you pasta mouth.

Unbeknownst to me at the time of purchase, Sizzle is really new. So new, it's not even on Revlon's website yet and I can't find any online source that's selling it. (The orange in the picture isn't even the orange I'm talking about!) However, if you really want to try this bright orange lip gloss, I bought my tube at Target.

What we looked like in 2009 Ten years ago I created, Fashion Me Fabulous, wrote up a handful of posts, picked a layout and send it all to my friend, Jael. “I’ve started a fashion blog. What do you think?” She gave me a few tips, wrote a couple “guest posts” and before long became my blogging partner. Together, we built a blog and community I could have never built alone. From the end of 2007 to the end of 2014, Fashion Me Fabulous ran regular content about fun, affordable fashion. Jael and I covered fashion week , reviewed fashion books , wrote about fashion history and did more shopping than seems humanly possible to search out the best clothes and accessories . We explored our personal styles , scoured Etsy for unique creations . I watched every single episode of Project Runway and blogged about it. Jael created an amazing presence on Polyvore . We learned all sorts of things about coding and websites and content and graphic design and so on. (You can tell if you look at

October is the perfect month for anyone who loves a dramatic look. Because of Halloween, you can get away with more in the makeup department than you can the rest of the year. You want to try false eyelashes? Go for it. You want to color your eyebrows? Do it. Color outside the lines with eyeshadow? Why not? Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.
