Today, we will see Revlon Colorburst Mauve lipstick in action.
When I hear Mauve, I think purple! Purple on my lips?! Eeks! But no. The Revlon Color Burst Mauve lipstick is a rosy shade with a tinge of lilac berry so its quite a cool colour β temperature wise not cool hip π On lips, it looks pretty much as it does in the tube for me.
So mauve on down to see the swatch. hurhur π
I wore it in a fairly everyday sort of look because this is a sort of everyday colour lipstick. In fact, this is a colour I started with back in college (from Maybelline) and its still a colour I like wearing.
- Face: Dior Nude Glow Complexion Enhancer, Diorskin Nude liquid foundation, Guerlain Meteorites Nacre des Mers
- Eyes: Prestige single eyeshadows β Verdigris (dark green), Iguana (deep green), Gold, Lancome Virtuose Precious Cells mascara
- Cheeks: Guerlain 4 Eclats Sculpting Blush Rose Plein Vent
I wore this to work, as I do. I kept the overall look on the cool side to match the lip colour and its a lovely everyday sort of lipstick colour that adds a touch of colour to your face yet doesnβt scream out βIβm wearing lipstick! Look at meeee!β
How would you wear Mauve? π

your skin is simply GLOWING woman! jealous. i suddenly got a minor breakout today, very annoyed. spoils my whole day when i wake up in the morning n see those little pimples staring back on my otherwise clear cheeks. lucky itβs only on my left cheek or iβll be thundercloud face the whole day β cause iβm shallow like that. =P
ParisB says
Thank you! Actually, thank Guerlain and the Dior foundation! Haha⦠Go back, do a quick pore cleansing mask or aspirin mask and I hope your skin clears up soon.

rinnah says
Eeek! I like Mauve tooβ¦ canβt decide if I like Blush or Mauve betterβ¦ lemmings, lemmingsβ¦ π need to rush off to the nearest Revlon counter and swatch these lippies!
ParisB says
These are colours best swatched yourself π Mauve is a very safe colour for me β its colour yet not super striking.
plue says
u look good! but i think i like Blush on u more XD
ParisB says
Haha Iβve been using Blush nearly everyday! I think Iβm liking it more too π
Hanny says
I am sooo jealous of your skin. T.T I love Mauve!! Iβm planning to wear it to my graduation prom after A Levels. ^.^ With a shiny bluish smokey eye hahaha.
ParisB says
That look sounds pretty π
Connie says
Mauve looks great on you! Not really my color though π
ParisB says
Nope though Blush should do it for you! π
gio says
Thatβs a very pretty shade. I thought it looked kinda boring in the tube, but on the lips, it looks gorgeous! But blush is also very pretty too. π
ParisB says
Thank you Gio β Yes Mauve did kind of surprise me
Isabel says
I have more or less the same colouring as you and mauve would be something I stick into my handbag and that I carry around at all times. It would be my βto-use-when-Iβm-too-lazy-to-thinkβ colour. =P
That makes it kind of boring and would love to try Blush. That might be the perfect nude for me. Most nudes make me look washed out.
ParisB says
Same! I donβt usually wear nude or neutral lipsticks because they make me look terrible. Blush worked because there is a rosy tint. Otherwise, for a touch of colour, Mauve does it fine π
Joy Chuah says

Paris..review the dior glow enhancer plsss..hehe XD
