Revlon ColorStay Moisture Stain full collection (Swatches & Review)




Pictured left to right: 001 India Intrigue, 005 Parisian Passion, 010 LA Exclusive, 015 Barcelona Nights, 020 Rio Rush,   025 Cannes Crush, 030 Milan Moment, 035 Miami Fever, 040 Shanghai Sizzle, 045 New York Scene, 050 London Posh, 055 Stockholm Chic.
The Revlon ColorStay Moisture Stain collection consists of 12 shades.
The packaging is nice because there are windows that show that actual color of the formulas.
I like that the Revlon logo is perpendicular to the product name, it's eye catching.

The standouts in this collection are definitely the reds, they are super uniform and pigmented.
You'll see in the swatches.

001 India Intrigue

005 Parisian Passion

010 LA Exclusive

015 Barcelona Nights

020 Rio Rush

025 Cannes Crush

030 Milan Moment

035 Miami Fever

040 Shanghai Sizzle

045 New York Scene

050 London Posh

055 Stockholm Chic

So the verdict? For something that has the words "ColorStay" and "Stain" in it this product fails.
None of the colors left me with any leftover color or a stain.

On top of that the color comes off fairly easily. I ate with these on and, even though I was being
careful, after the meal none of the product was present on my lips.

The products also have a weird smell to them. Not exactly unpleasant but nothing good either. I can't for the life of me pin the smell down though. 

They have a watery consistency but after they sit on your lips for a couple minutes they thicken up, A Lot.

They hard to apply, you get a lot of product on the edges of your lips, I don't know if it's the applicator or just the formula, the formula also feathers.

Overall if your going to get these go for the reds and London Posh.

Victoria's Secret Limited Edition Island Getaway Whipped Body Soufflé

Victoria's Secret Limited Edition Island Rush Whipped Body Soufflé

 
 Victoria's Secret Limited Edition Island Getaway Whipped Body Soufflé

 If anything beauty product has souffle in the name I'm there. Everything is so soft and airy. 
I love the packaging and the colors used in this collection. The colors really do make you think of tropical places and warm sunsets. Perfect for Ohioans haha.

A look at the formula
A close up!

 Endless Sunset features Hawaiian Orchid & Currant and is in the neon yellow packaging.

I love all three fragrances but this is the one that my fiance doesn't like so much. 

To me it smells pineapple-y with a little bit of a flower scent. It smells mainly fruity to me. This is my favorite scent of the three.

Island Rush features Pomelo & Coconut Water and is in the neon orange packaging.

To me this smells like a shampoo or a hair product. This is my least favorite of the three.

The back

Tropical Nights features Fresh Berries & Hyacinth and is in the neon pink packaging.

You can definitely smell the hyacinth in this, overall this smells very floral but not heavy.



After you apply the moisturizers the scent of these last a good 2-3 hours.

They moisturize nice but I still get more moisturizing properties from my Bath & Body Works Triple Moisture Body Cream but these are nice for summer.

The best part of these is actually applying them. It is literally like rubbing silk on your body. The formula instantly absorbs into your skin and it's the most non greasy moisturizer I've ever applied.
 It's a pleasure to apply. 

I'm sad these are limited edition, I love the formula. They are already sold out online but you can still grab them in store. I definitely recommend you do.
