Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in "Lilac Pastelle" and "Pink Pursuit"

This is the first time I'm trying anything from the Revlon Super Lustrous Line, I've tried the ColourBurst lipsticks (love) and lip glosses (meh) though. These were on sale at Shopper's lately for $3.99, which is a phenomenal price for these lip glosses. Let me start by saying that I love the Super Lustrous formula way more than the ColorBurst lip glosses, the ColorBurst ones are rather thick and more of a creamy product than a gloss - some people might like this as it definitely yields intense color but personally I'm not a fan of how they feel on your lips. These Super Lustrous ones, however, are a beautiful consistency, extremely non-sticky and glides on amazingly. I am in love!!!

Above we have Lilac Pastelle on the left and Pink Pursuit on the right, I absolutely adore both. I got Pink Pursuit as a "safe" colour, since I wasn't sure if I would like the formula. It's a very easy to wear sort of muted pink with silvery shimmer, it is absolutely gorgeous and has amazing pigmentation. Lilac Pastelle is of course a lilac colour with very subtle purple shimmer that is hardly noticeable in the tube, let alone on your lips. It is more pigmented than I expected and when I first put it on, I was slightly scared at how pigmented it was. When I sheer it out though, it is just beautiful, it works with my natural lip colour and tones it down to a cool-toned pink. This colour is amazing with bold pink lipstick as well, if you're looking for something unusual and fun to add to your collection, Lilac Pastelle is a must-have. It'll turn any lip colour into a paler, more cooler-toned version. The swatches below are one swipe of the wand.

Now that I've tried these, I think I'd pick these up even if they were not on sale. The formula is top-notch and is better than some high-end lip glosses I've tried. I am definitely lemming some more colours now!
