Revlon Colorburst Lipstick in Soft Nude

I think everyone has been talking about this color lately and how it's an excellent drugstore nude so I had to get it. I wasn't sure of the color at first but as I kept wearing it I rather liked that it is understated and excellent to balance strong eye makeup. It is a color that I had to get used to.

Texture: My impression of it is that you can't apply too many layers, otherwise it'll get really streaky on you. It isn't a problem with my top lip but it can be with my bottom lip. A lipliner does wonders with evening it out.

For me I think it lasted around maybe 2 hours? I slept with it on and after my 3 hour nap there was a tiny bit left.

Packaging: I will give them kudos for the packaging because it does feel luxurious with a nice click when it closes. I also noticed that they did a really good job at matching up the lipstick cap with the actual lipstick color!

Here is the lipstick swatched by itself!

I also swatched it over NYX Natural Lipliner to make it a bit darker. I prefer it over lipliner but I think both are nice.
Have you gotten Soft Nude yet? Get it while you can while it's on sale this week at Rite Aid for 40% off :)
