    I really like the Revlon Matte lipsticks. It has a creamy texture so it applies smoothly and evenly. It's not overly matte - it still leaves a little bit of a sheen which I like. The pigmentation of the matte lipsticks is pretty impressive and they are easy to build up. I find most matte lipsticks to be very drying but these are not and they're definitely long-lasting.

    There are many colors to choose from and they are reasonably priced for a drugstore lipstick. It's also unscented so it's ideal for those who are sensitive to overly fragrant products. I would recommend this product and will be repurchasing myself.

    love the lipstick! i pick the pink, strawberry and nude color. The nude one doesn't suit me because my skin color, but i do love the red one. The color stays long except if you go eat. It goes smooth. Some leave my lip dry or moisturized. The color is very pigmented. I recommend to everyone

    I bought this lipstick specifically for the colour. I wanted a dark, deep purply-red colour and the pigment in this lipstick was great. It is kind of difficult to wear bold dark lipstick (it makes the potential for getting it on your teeth increase quite a lot)! What I do to make it a bit easier is to mix the lipstick with lip balm or another lip gloss and I try not to put too much lipstick on and just dab it on.

    Otherwise this lipstick is great- I really don't think it is necessary to spend a lot of money on lipsticks afterall, you always end up losing them anyways right? I love that this lipstick is matte as well. It really stands out and helps to make a look complete.

    bought this lipstick today. I needed to find a nice light, fresh colour for the spring/summer. Usually I don’t buy Revlon really. But this was a nice nude tone that suited my skin tone. (ivory with peachy undertones) I wouldn’t recommend it if you have a lot of yellow or burnt orange undertones or else it’ll look a little bizarre and too contrasting. If you have a cooler more pink tones to your skin then pick a shade in that family. Just make sure you exfoliate and moisturize your lips like crazy before application. And apply a natural tone liner so it doesn’t look so monochromatic. Nude lips look best with a nice smoky eye or a natural lid with thick black liner.

    The product itself is really nice and creamy for applying. (I often find matte lipsticks too drying on my lips) It also doesn't have a nasty perfumed taste like most drugstore lipsticks. The only thing I found is that it's pretty pricey for a drugstore line. But otherwise I'm pretty happy with my purchase.

    I always use a lip balm/vaseline as a base before applying this product. If I have time, I would exfoliate before using this lipstick as well. I also like to dap the lipstick onto my lips instead of gliding harshly.

    Main Ingredients
    Not provided.

    Price:
    It retailed for $9.99 at Shoppers Drug Mart. and about $8CAD at Walmart.
    I purchased this last week for $3.99 CAD at Shoppers Drug Mart. I recently started to watch for weekly flyer deals!



    Review:
    I only decided to purchase this lipstick because of the sale at Shoppers and because I haven't had any new matte lipsticks in the past 5 years or so, due to bad experiences with formulations.

    On makeupalley and beauty blogs, I always see that it was compared to a MAC's pink lipsticks such as "Viva Glam Gaga", "Saint Germain" and "All Styled Up" but honestly, none of these are dupes at all. Personally, if I remember the swatch of "I like it like that" correctly, I think that Pink Pout reminds me strongly of it. To me, Pink Pout is a barbie pink with cool undertones leaning slightly towards a bit mauve as well. It helped get my smokey eye make up pop and I usually like to pair this color with purple eye make up. I think that it looked really good on my light and yellow undertoned skin. Lastly, it is pigmented even with just one coat, especially if you like a tint of the color without being cakey.

    The texture of this lipstick allows it to glide smoothly during application. However I do find that the formula is still drying. Over time, about 2 hours, I find that my lips are dried. I would need to take it off entirely and reapply starting with a lip balm as base. Having a base makes it much better for application. Otherwise, if applied without any base, my lips become extremely dry and flaky. I usually get this result with matte lipsticks.

    The lasting power is overall good. It didnt smear around my lips area or onto my teeth, it stays put exactly where you apply it. I don't need it to last too long like 6 hours because I tend to eat or drink a lot during a day. One of the best part is that there wasn't a funny smell or any weird after taste.

    For packaging, I like that it is simple and that the top is see-through so I can see the colour. Makes it much easier to find the right shade considering most of you guys have TONS of lippies. Many lipsticks on the market have the product slightly outside the tube when retracted (like a little head peeking out). This Revlon lipstick can retract entirely inside the tube, which I like because sometimes the lid comes off when its being thrown around in my purse. This way, the product doesn't smear all over my purse.

    Overall: ♥♥♥♥
    Product: 4/5 ♥ Still somewhat drying, rich texture, and beautiful colour.
    Packaging: 5/5 ♥ Simple, Convenient
    Price: 5/5 ♥ Retailing at $8-10 is average for a Drugstore lipstick. Sale prices makes it awesome though!
