I'm not sure why I was so late on the band wagon with these ones but I'm glad I tried them in the end, these beauties by Revlon come in a whopping 21 shades and are available from Boots and Superdrug for £7.99.
The idea behind 'lip butters' is that they are a cross between a lip balm and a lipstick, so they are nourishing on the lips and provide a decent amount of pigment at the same time. I picked up 5 shades of these on a recent trip to Boots and thought I'd do a quick review.

All 5 shades I bought are extremely pigmented for lip butters, in my opinion they could easily pass for a lipstick. The packaging of the line is very sleek and luxurious-looking with a conventional lipstick bullet covered by the chequered lid which matches the shade of the lip butter inside.

I love all the shades of these, they are all very smooth and moisturising and stay a surprising amount of time on the lips. My personal favourite is 'Peach parfait', it is a lovely muted berry shade with some gold shimmer running through it. The only complaint you could make about these is that some of the shades are quite similar, for instance 'Peach parfait' and 'Berry smoothie' are almost identical shades however 'Berry smoothie' has much less shimmer. Even so, I would still recommend these and I am looking forward to buying more of the brighter shades for summer.
How did you get on with these? Let me know in the comments.
Also if you have any requests for future reviews do comment and I'll be happy to have a look.
Lovely post,hun!
