So I was on my lunch break on Friday and I finally caved and bought two of the Revlon ColourBurst Lip Butters. I have been eyeing these up ever since I heard about them and so far I haven't managed to convince myself that I needed them, especially with the £7.99 price tag. Thankfully both Superdrug and Boots had a save £2 offer on them therefore making them £5.99, BARGAIN! Normally my local Superdrug is all out of student discount slips, either their printer is broken or they have run out, so I shop for my beauty supplies at Boots, however on this rare occasion I flashed my NUS card at them and they had one left. HURRAH! So with my student discount on top each lip butter was just under £5.40. I honestly don't know what I would do without my trusty NUS student card, it is definitely worth it.

I got the colours 025 Peach Parfait and 095 Crème Brulee. My first impression of this product is that the criss-cross design gives you more grip when you open it and the square base makes it less likely to fall over when stood on its end.

On the other hand Crème Brulee is a pale nude with just a touch of shimmer which gives the lips a natural sheen without looking like a ghost. Overall on the lips they feel more wearable everyday than lipstick with the added bonus of being hydrating.

The other item that I picked up was the Sally-Hansen Insta-Dri Anti-Chip Top Coat because I am fed up of spending ages painting my nails and then smudging it and having to start all over again. Hopefully this will prevent me wasting both nail polish and remover in future nail painting. My nails are really brittle and dry, do you have any suggestions and tips to help revive them?
Apologies for the bad photography, I need to sort out decent lighting, hopefully this will be sorted for my next blog post.
alot of people have been reviewing these lip butters!
