I know right, not another chubby stick lip crayon - but you know what these are seriously some of my favourite lip products, they are fool proof to apply and considering the high street have an amazing line up - they are affordable too. I've got tonnes of the Revlon Just Bitten and a few of the Bourjois Colour Boost - so let's see how the new Rimmel Colour Rush Balm in the shades The Redder The Better and Give Me A Cuddle fares...
In terms of longevity it's around the same as the Revlon Just Bitten range - I suppose all depending on what you're doing (don't go down the gutter, I mean eating, drinking etc,) but they do last for a few hours before wearing off, so you can either top it up with a normal lip balm or just reapply the colour.
Upon first application, they aren't that bright - which is actually great, surprisingly. You can build it up (as I have in the swatch above and I do apologise for the lighting,) to go bright or just do the one light application and not be paranoid that it's over kill - these would also be great for people who don't like wearing a bright lip - it could be a great way of easing into it, so to speak.
These aren't super glossy, but perhaps sit quite comfortably between the Revlon Just Bitten range and the Colour Boost range - not overly glossy, but a pretty sheen to it none the less.
Did I need another lip crayon? No, but I'm pretty glad I bought them and I'll probably pick up another shade eventually as they are all so wearable. Definitely worth a swatch or three when your in Boots or Superdrug next.
Have you tried the Rimmel Colour Rush Balms?
Peace!
ooo I'm loving the look of these! Definitely gonna keep an eye out for them on my next visit to boots!
