Revlon Lipstick Swatches

Recently I took advantage of 30% discount at drugstore.com to round out my Revlon Lipstick Collection.
I think I am finished! I love their matte formula as it is very pigmented and does not leave my lips dry like some other brands. Revlon lipsticks are definitely my favorite drugstore brand of lipstick! I love their sleek packaging. I love that they are readily available and affordable.

Check out the swatches!

Do you own any Revlon Lipsticks?

Collective Nail Polish Haul (With Swatches)

I've acquired several polishes over the past few weeks.
I work hard to catch them on sale.

Milani (Buy $10 worth, get $4 Bonus Bucks)

Techno Red (It looks more pink than red in real life. Gorgeous! Can't wait to put it on my toes Visible Nail Line still present after 3 coats)

Revlon (Rite Aid Buy 1 Get 1 50% off with $4 Up Rewards)

Gray Suede 705 (A interesting color, I thought to be sickly gray with the 1st coat, it improved with each additional coat. I ended up doing 3 to get it to look the way I wanted)

Opulent Pink 904 Warm Baby Pink with subtle Gold Shimmer (Backup ...one of my faves)

Posh Pink 912 (Slightly Frosty Bubble Gum Pink Visible Nail Line still present after 3 coats)

Nails Of The Day (NOTD) - Revlon MINTED

I am loving Revlon MINTED!

It reminds me of creamy sherbert.

I am so ready for Spring.

This formula was a little bit streaky after two coats. I used three for it to appear opaque. The result was a little bumpy because I was eager to get it opaque. I put too much polish on the brush. I was watching Celebrity Apprentice in my living room, so my lighting was not the best. Energy Saver bulbs are great for the enviornment, but terrible for painting nails.
I didn't realize it was bumpy until this morning. UGH!

Overall, I'm enjoying the color. The next time I use this I will take my time.

Indirect Sunlight Indoors No Flash

I think the colors create an interesting contrast against my brown skin.

Would you rock this shade in the Winter?

Nails Of The Day (NOTD) - Revlon PERPLEX

This color is rumored to be a dupe
for the more expensive
Chanel PARADOXAL.
I won it in a give away from
nailsbeautiqued

I love it! It's very chic.
I would describe it as a dirty plum.
You might be able to find this treasure
in the clearance bin at your local drugstore or at
BigLots.

Nails Of The Day - Revlon Midnight Affair

I like this jelly.
In some light it looks almost black.

I did my standard NK Ridge Filler Base Coat
Revlon Midnight Affair 3x
and
1 coat of NK Express Fast Dry Top Coat

Nails Of The Day (NOTD) - Revlon Plum Night

Wow! This is one of the most sophisticated purple mani's I've seen in a long time.
I was able to score this polish for $.99
(Thanks to CVS Sale $3.99 with $3 Extra Care Bucks Reward). The everyday price is $4.99

I love the formulation. It has a smooth and creamy application.

I did my standard NK Ridge Filler Base Coat
Revlon Plum Night 2x
and
1 coat of NK Express Dry Top Coat.

I tricked out my thumbs with Wet N Wild Shine Sparked (*gift)

Nails Of The Day (NOTD) - Revlon OPULENT PINK

I was considering buying a soft pretty neutral work friendly shade of nail polish.



I went shopping in my collection and found that I already had the perfect color!



Revlon OPULENT PINK



With Flash



It has gold micro-shimmer. Can you see it?

No Flash



Is GORGEOUS! I LOVE IT!

Yield for Yellow - Nails Of The Day - NK Amarillo and Revlon Banana Blaze

These show stopping, POPPING yellow nails will have people breaking their necks for a double take!

I LOVE the contrast against my brown skin. They would set off a Nautical outfit, or compliment animal print or a billowy maxi-dress.



The NK Amarillo is cool and creamy! It only took 2 coats to get the perfect opacity.





The Revlon Banana Blaze warmed things up a bit. Can you see the gold flecks?









Do you have any yellow Nail Polish?

Revlon Red Nail Polish 680

Tungsten Lighting

All other photos in Bright Sunlight









As usual, I applied a base coat and a clear top coat.
I applied 3 coats. Could achieve opacity with just 2 coats.
This brush was fine. It was not thin like the Midnight Blue Revlon.
I give this 5 out of 5 stars!
