Revlon Just bitten balm

Which colour to get? Are they as good as the clinique chubby sticks. I quite fancied "cherish" but it was sold out in all the shops I went in to today.

I really wanted one in the colour romantic-a red-but couldnt get one in any of the shops-I went to 3 boots and a superdrug!!

Completely different to Clinique chubby sticks. Revlon things are a lip stain (like a felt tip pen!) and a clear balm/ moisturiser on the other end. A chubby stick is more like a tinted balm or sheer lipstick.

I prefer a chubby stick, although it comes off quickly. I find the Revlon things fade in the middle, so it looks like you have put on lip liner but no lipstick! Also I found the stain bit dries up quickly. Oh, and to add insult to injury, the balm bit broke off when I used it in hot weather!

The ones I saw were like a thick crayon, not the ones with the gloss one end and the pen at the other.

Just bitten kissable stains are the ones like the Chubby Sticks.

I have Cherish which is really nice light pink. Not too dark but still looks lovely. Rendezvous is an orangey red which is nice but if I use too much it looks like I've eaten a lot of Spag Bol!
Lovesick is my least fave as it's a bit too dark pink for me but that's because I'm still not very brave on lips.
They are really good as well in that you can layer it so if you want a deeper or brighter colour just keep going.
They last a long time as well.
They have a very minty smell but it soon fades.
I'm on the lookout for Honey but it's too popular!

There are two different products with same name-one is just bitten which is more like a lipstain and the other is Just bitten kissable-very similar to the clinique chubby stick and goes on more like a lip balm.

Ok its the Just bitten kissable I need to know EVERYTHING about.

I prefer the Revlon to the Clinique, the packaging is similar, but the product is very different. I found Clinique chubby sticks quite hard and waxy with very little pigmentation, and they didn't last. Just a tinted lip balm in a crayon form really. The Revlon ones are softer, much more pigmented and much more long lasting.

So which colour should I get, QuinnFabray?
