New Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain!

Hi everybody! Today I am going to review a new product that I found at my local Target, Revlon's Just Bitten Kissable Balm stain! When I first saw these I was a little sceptical but super excited because they look just like the Tarte LipSurgence, and if you read my post on the Tarte LipSurgence then you know how much I love those!

 The packaging is the same size and shape as the Tarte LipSurgence, though I believe the amount of product is slightly less by like 0.01 (or something around there). Not enough of a difference to even be noticeable.

Like the Tarte lip balm these are a twist up pencil that doesn't need sharpening. There is a range of colors from light natural colors to bold reds.

 I am so amazed at how close to the Tarte balms these are! They work wonderfully. They go on sheer, but buildable, have the same minty smell (maybe not as strong as the Tarte), they have the moisturizing balm property AND they leave a stain of color on your lips after the balm wears off! The only and I mean ONLY difference I can find between the two is that the Tarte is a little more satiny in application, and the Revlon seems to be a little bit richer/thicker. The difference in application is not something that is a turn off either, they are just slightly different.

Another thing I love about the Revlon balm? The PRICE! The Tarte rings in at $22 per pencil, while I picked up the Revlon pencil for just under $7.50 each! That means you could almost purchase 3 of the Revlon pencils for the cost of one Tarte!!

My overall though: I love them and have been converted from the Tarte to Revlon!

Go pick one up for yourself and let me know how you like it!
