Revlon Super Lustrous lipgloss - Pink Pop

Holding my hands up to my make-up purchases this weekend being totally driven by 2 days of sunshine; first orange nail varnish and now this:
haul-4

I had admired (lusted after) a very similar shade in the Chanel glosses last time I was having a play but wasn't sure that I could carry off a bright pink gloss and didn't want to spend twenty odd quid only to find out that I couldn't.  So the Revlon was an affordable alternative.
Actually on the lips it isn't so opaque that its scary, it sheers out enough to just give a nice hit of colour.  For a gloss it is surprisingly comfortable to wear too, I haven't found it particularly sticky which is a benefit, although I did have the whole hair/gloss thing going on in the Co-op car park when a particularly strong gust glued the two together, I am so cool.

Having decided that bright is the way to go I was very very very tempted by the Revlon Super Lustrous gloss in Coral Reef.  It's orange.  Lip smackingly orange.  Did mention to my very beloved daughter that I had considered an orange lip gloss and without pausing for thought she said "if you buy it I will disown you, you are waay to old for orange gloss".  Never one to hold back.  Bitch was right about nude lips so I guess I had better listen.

Revlon Super Lustrous lipgloss costs £6.99 and is on the Boots site here
Just googled Coral Reef and had a look at images, looking at the swatches it does seem that the vast majority that bought Pink Pop also bought Coral Reef.  Clearly they don't live with the self-appointed arbiter of age appropriate lip colour like I have to! A lot of them did also appear to be about 19.

  3. Simone - tempted is not the word, might just buy it and not tell her, she'll never know. I am almost sure the dynamic of our relationship is totally skewed, isn't she sposed to be saying those kind of things about me?!!

    Annabella, hi hun - Forgot to weigh yourself???! How pants are you! Yep, feeling a bit of a "has anyone seen my metabolism" rant actually!

  4. I have to agree with Simone - go with the orange, I tend to find that with each of my offspring that they say something with supreme confidence and then forget about it in a nano second. Please buy and post. Jan x

  5. Hi Jan, I might just do that! Em though it was hilarious that you all said I should ignore her. She said "do what you like Coco" I don't think she meant Chanel!
