The Orange Lip #1

Had you told me this time last year that I'd be wearing and loving an orange lip, I'd have laughed in your face. Seriously, I'd have thought you were mad. Turns out you wouldn't have been so mad, though, because that is exactly what I've been doing recently. I have a couple of products to show you, but we're starting today with Revlon's Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in 'Rendezvous'. 



A few points about the product:
  • It smells nice and minty.
  • It can be twisted up, meaning that you don't only get the little nib/end that you can see in the photo.
  • The product feels moisturising and soft on the lips even hours after application.
  • Like most products, this tends to wear away over time until there's an orange ring around the edge of the lips. Attractive, much?

Now the winter months are over and we can leave behind the maroons, the purples and the deep reds, orange seems like a fabulous alternative to a fuchsia pink. 


What do you think? Have you been brave enough to sport an orange lip? Let me know in the comments below :)

  1. Rachel, you look absolutely stunning with the orange lip!
    I've been wearing the orange lip last summer and I'm really looking forward to do it this year again. :)

    1. Thanks for your comment :) I was expecting it to be kind of 'in your face' but I don't think it is at all

    2. No they don't sadly. There's lots of makeup from different brands i'd like to buy that they don't sell in Sweden.
