Hi, girls!
Back in the summer when I did some shopping at Fragrance Direct, I've got this Revlon Just Bitten Lipstain+Balm in #Fate/Destin, a nude-brown lipstain and a clear lip balm. I was pretty excited about it as averybody raved about these last year, so I has high expectations about this one, more because I had never used a lipstain before.

I don't like the packaging also, more for the lip balm part, it's just a plastic cap that goes onto it, the balm you receive is just the amount you see in the picture.

Sorry for the lack of quality of my lips picture, I had some bad lighting and the color on my lips just didn't want to reveal itself in the photos.
I don't really recomand these ones, I think they are some much better lipstains on the market if you search one and just for the balm part, it doesn't worth buying it.
If you tried other lipstains from Revlon, please tell me how do you like them!

I hate giving bad reviews and I keep thinking that maybe mine was bad or something because the lipstain is absolutely awful. Maybe it just doesn't work for me, as I only tried this one, perhaps the other colors are not that bad.
Anyhow, I didn't get to wear this at all, as the lipstain is so uneven and liquidy, it sets in the lip lines in a way that's not flattering at all. The balm part was not wrong with it, just a clear, non scented lip balm, which is actually moisturinsing used on it's own.
I did exfoliate and assured my lips weren't dry when I put the lipstain on, but just the same in a mather of seconds it was all in my lines and already fading away. Even with balm on top of it, there was no stopping to setting in some ugly dark brown lines. It also it feels really weird when put onto the lips, it dries them instantly.
From the swatch below, the color and pigmentation might not be too bad, but wearing it on the lips is a nightmare. I couldn't wear it outside my house so I had to remove it, and I did tried on several occasions as I thought I didn't do it right. As far as wear time goes, I can't tell as I didn't have the chance to actually wear it.
I know Revlon makes some awesome lip products, I love their lipsticks and glosses, but this was one is a major fail for me, and damn, I really hate not liking beauty products.
