Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter Juicy Papaya Photos & Swatches

One fact about me: I hate papaya. I've tried eating it so many times, because people keep saying how beneficial it is health-wise & beauty-wise, but I just CAN'T. I think it smells a little like butter, which I also hate. The cluster of black seeds in it also kind of creeps me out, I always get goosebumps when I look at them.
Okay, enough about the fruit, and let's move on to a different kind of papaya that I don't mind getting near my mouth and nose ~ Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in Juicy Papaya, which is one of the 4 new shades that were launched recently. It's a lighter & less orange version of Tutti Frutti.

Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter Juicy Papaya Swatches
I find Juicy Papaya harder than the other Revlon Lip Butters I've used, so it's not as pigmented and doesn't glide as smoothly on my lips. I have to layer it 3-4 times for it to look somewhat opaque. It emphasizes dryness and doesn't feel very moisturizing. I exfoliated my lips very properly before applying it in the pic there, but it still refused to look perfect. However, the harder waxy texture makes it last longer on lips. It is tasteless & fragrance-free. 
Price ~ £7.99 | Rs.756. In India, they cost Rs.600.
My Rating ~ ♥♥♥♥♥ 3/5.

What do you think of Juicy Papaya? And who else hates papaya fruit?

    I love the Lip Butters because of their colours, they are pigmented enough to add a bit of colour and sheer enough to make it college-appropriate. I want Wild Watermelon and Sorbet from the newly launched ones! Ooh and Red Velvet from the older one. Already have four in my kitty, hehe. :P

    I love the colour of the bullet, but I have very pigmented lips naturally so if it's not very opaque I don't think it would work well on me at all. It looks gorgeous on you though xx

    I hate papaya.. its smell, its seeds and I just can't see when papaya is cut.. This is one of the fruit that I would never like to have, even in mix fruit bowl if other fruit touches it I will not eat them too..
    this color shows on you atleast, will not suit me :(

I ♥ finding little notes in my Vanity Case, so do drop one. I read all of them & I try my best to reply to each & every one of them [check back in 2-3 days =D] but most times it's physically impossible! Either way, I love to hear from you & really appreciate you taking the time out to share your thoughts <3

Thank you for reading! :)

♥xx♥
