Hello Friends!
Today I am going to review Revlon Colorburst Lipstick in 'Rosy Nude'.I have got two shades from this range:
-Rosy Nude
-Soft rose.
I will post the swatches of 'Soft Rose very soon.

-Instant burst of rich, true color with a featherlight feel
-Elasticolor™ technology provides immediate color release and hugs lips with a burst of weightless color that    feels like a second skin
-Available in 20 gorgeous shades, including 5 new shades!

Price: Rs 580 for 3.7 Grams





My Take On This Product:
I got this lipstick some 3 months back,I had clicked pics long ago but totally forgot to review this lipstick.Recently while checking all the pics on my cam, I realized there are sooooo many products left to be reviewed.Anyways, I got the shade 'Rosy Nude' as I wanted a nude pink shade which wont wash me out and will be warm enough for daily wear.My quest for perfect Pink Nude lipstick ended with this fantabulous shade.

Revlon colorburst lipsticks come in wide range of shades with cream finish.Though these lipsticks are heavy on pocket yet I find these quite worth the price.However I did not like all the shades from this range, most of shades will look pretty on cooler skin tones.
Revlon Colorburst Lipstick comes in sturdy black casing with shade name mentioned at the base.I like its packaging as its travel friendly, I have dropped the lipstick twice by fault yet there was no damage at all.
This lipstick is quite creamy, smooth and gives opaque coverage with two swipes.I am a big fan of cream finish lipsticks but most of such lipsticks available at market bleed horribly. I did not see any bleeding or melting problem with Revlon Colorburst ones ever.This lipstick makes my lips look fuller and healthy and never settles in my fine lines like other creamy lipsticks.

The shade 'Rosy Nude' is a warm pink shade with brown undertones.Its a most versatile shade and will suit warm skin tones well.This is the only shade which I would love to wear with smokey eyes as well as with neutral makeup.Staying power of this lipstick is around 3-4 hours including meals.This lipstick is very lightweight and fades evenly leaving a subtle tint behind.It keeps my lips moisturized and never gives that stretchy feeling like matte lipsticks.I would highly recommend this shade to all who are searching for a warm nude pink shade for daily wear.

Pros Of The Product:
-The shade 'Rosy Nude' is a pretty warm nude pink color with brown undertones.
-This shade will look flattering on Indian skin tones.
-This is the only nude pink shade that never ever washed me out,even when I wear minimal or no makeup.
-Its texture is smooth and glides nicely on lips.
-This lipstick is very pigmented and gives opaque coverage with two swipes.
-The finish is creamy, but it never accentuates my fine lines like other creamy lipsticks.
-This lipsticks never bleed without  a lip liner.
-Its formula is the best one among all existing lipsticks in market.
-It keeps my lips moisturized for a quite long time.
-Stays on my lips for 3-4 hours including meals.
-It fades evenly leaving a subtle pinkish tint.
-Available at almost all well known cosmetic shops and online shopping sites.
-Packaging is quite sturdy and travel friendly.
-Gets easily removed with a makeup remover.
-Comes in more than 20 vibrant shades to choose from.
-Does not melt or break that easily as much I had expected.  :p

Cons Of The product:
-Very very pricy for a lipstick.
-Quantity is lesser in comparison to other lipsticks available in the market. 
-Few lipsticks in this range are poorly pigmented. (I had swatched the shades 'Mauve' and 'Blush' at shops and they were damn poorly pigmented but then tester could be bad too)
-I did not like all shades in this range, most of the shades wont look flattering on Indian skin tones.
-List of Ingredients no where mentioned.
-Revlon also does not allow online shopping sites to give discount on their products.  (What is your problem my dear 'Revlon' if we get a bit of discount? We all are not millionaires and please do remember India is a developing country, so do not overburden us with your weird pricing policy.We too have the right to get good quality makeup at affordable price. )
