I've been looking for Revlon's Primson since March. I checked one department store and PCX and they both said that they haven't had a stock for a while now. When I asked my friend and mom to check if it was available in Hong Kong, my mom wasn't able to find it.
So, I thought Primrose has been discontinued.
Then last May, I checked Revlon counter and tried my luck and asked if they have Primrose - and they did! So, I immediately bought it!
I really like how it looks on the tube and also on the pictures that I've seen online. When I checked it up close, I thought the color was similar to MAC Angel. But it wasn't. Close but not quite. But I love the color on my lips!
Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Primrose
PhP450.00
swatched
Apologies for the weird angles. I was trying to get the best angle possible for the light to reflect on my lips.
Pros:
- affordable
- locally available
- does not have a weird scent
- glides on easily
- creamy texture
- buildable
Cons:
- might be too sheer for some people
- although it is buildable, it might takes several swipes for it to be opaque
- not suitable for people with dark lips
Honestly, I thought this would be a love at first swipe lipstick. I really love its color on other people's lips and I was really sold by seeing the pictures online. I thought this would be a shade very close to MAC Saint Germain sans the neon/bright/shocking effect. The first time I tried this, I was like, "dang, what a waste of money." BUT! Of course, there's always a but! On my third day of using this lipstick, I realized that I really like it on my lips! So, this shade is a shade that grows on you. This could pass as a sheer lipstick but it's buildable. I always bring this in my bag and although I've been using this for only less than a month, this is definitely part of my really really favorites lipsticks!
