Smoked Peach

I've wanted Revlon's Super Lustrous Matte lipstick in Smoked Peach for ages and was always put off buying it thinking it might not suit me, but I've been really loving paler lips over the past few months and I was looking for something along the vein of a '60s lipstick but that would be really nice for Spring. I got this for half price with a Revlon promotion and I've been wearing it almost non-stop since. I'm expanding my make up boundaries!

Other Make Up:

Benefit High Beam Liquid Highlighter
Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer in Fair
Essence Liquid Ink Eyeliner
Estée Lauder Double Wear Light in Intensity 1
MAC Well Dressed Blush
Natural Collection LashCare Clear Mascara
No7 Perfect Light Loose Powder in Translucent
Revlon Photoready 3D Volume Mascara
Revlon Rich Sable eyeshadow (brows)
Urban Decay Primer Potion in Sin and eyeshadow in Sin


I think I must have been subconsciously influenced by all the recent Hitchcock biopics because this really reminds me of Tippi Hedren's lipstick in The Birds, although I think I'll skip the blue eye shadow for now.

This is my seventh Revlon matte lipstick, but the first I've reviewed here. I love the Revlon matte range. They are among my most worn lipsticks because they feel really comfortable on the lips once I've prepped with some lip balm and they have great staying power too. The colour range is not as extensive as some of the other Revlon lip products but there are some really gorgeous colours, some of my other favourites are Wine Not, Really Red and the sadly discontinued Strawberry Suede. I might actually do a post on all the matte shades I have, if anyone would be interested?

What are your favourite products for Spring?

  1. What a gorgeous, retro shade! Team it with some blue shadow (loads of it around this season) and you'll have the perfect homage to Tipi xo

    1. I don't know if I'm that brave, although I have been known to wear blue eyeshadow way back when!
