Revlon Colorburst Matte Balm – Sultry Review
Hello everyone,
Hope you all are doing good! I have been quite busy these last couple of months, what with moving into a new apartment, some health issues, etc. But now I am finally back! I have been reading all the posts that I have missed IMBB these past couple of months like crazy! Feels good to be back! 🙂 Today, I am reviewing a lip product from the Revlon Colorburst Matte range.

My Experience with Revlon Colorburst Matte Balm – Sultry:
Packaging:
The packaging of these matte balms is the same as any chubby stick/jumbo lip pencil format with a twist up mechanism. I love this format, as the pencil gives more precision during application and no sharpening is required! No product wastage! 🙂 The matte outer packaging is in the same color as the color of the lip balm, which makes it easier to find it in your stash!
Color:
A beautiful rosy brown with hints of berry. This can work as an every day, every occasion color which would suit all skin tones.
Pigmentation:
This lip balm has excellent pigmentation. One swipe is enough to cover my pigmented lips. You can further build it up, if you want to, without it appearing patchy.
Fragrance:
This lip balm smells of peppermint. I quite like the smell! The smell fades after a few minutes.
Texture:
The texture of this lip balm is quite creamy and feels very moisturizing and lightweight at the same time. Glides on your lips like a dream! There is a very mild tingling sensation on the lips when you apply this, due to the peppermint.
Finish:
The finish is totally opaque matte. I love it! But as with any matte lipstick, you need to prep your lips before you use this as it highlights dryness/flakiness and fine lines. When applied on prepped lips, it does keep them from drying – the shea, coconut, and mango butters in action, I guess! I would recommend using a very thin layer of lip balm before applying this.
Longevity:
Lasts for about 4 hours without eating. It fades evenly and there is no staining of the lips. Once the creamy formulation sets on the lips, it only transfers very slightly. Moreover, it does not bleed or feather, which is quite good for such a creamy formulation.
Pros of Revlon Colorburst Matte Balm – Sultry:
- Beautiful rosy brown with hints of berry, suitable for all skin tones and for everyday use.
- Moisturizes and prevents lips from drying as it contains shea, coconut, and mango butters.
- Excellent pigmentation.
- Good lasting power for such a creamy formulation.
- Easy to use packaging with no sharpening needed.
- Can define lips with precision.
- Creamy texture which glides on the lips.
- Does not feel heavy on the lips.
- Does not bleed or feather.
Cons of Revlon Colorburst Matte Balm – Sultry:
- Highlights any dryness/flakiness and fine lines on the lips.
IMBB Rating:
4.5/5
