For something that cost less than RM30, it took me a couple of weeks deciding whether to get it or not. Finally got it during a sale in Watsons.
As I grow older, I'll be hitting the big 3-0 next year I realize that I have been buying lip balms and lipsticks to the red-ish side rather than the pinks that I used to love.
I guess now that I no longer colour my hair, the red-ish colour brings some colour to my pale face.
The colour is buildable and can be quite red depending on how many swipes you do. For me, I just use one swipe on the lower lips before evening everything out. I am not comfortable walking around with red lipstick in the office. I just needed something natural for me.
The staying power is not too bad. It last for quite a while and even when it fades a little, it leaves a slight hint of colour on your lips so it's not truly gone gone unless you just had lunch or dinner.
As whether it is moisturizing, I would say that it doesn't feel as good as a lip balm on but not as bad as having a lipstick on. I don't know about you but I don't have much luck with lipsticks since I find them either dry or too oily.
I find the MAC lipsticks drying and the Estee Lauder Crystal lipsticks nice and creamy but it last a good 5 minutes on me before I accidentally lick them off. Bah!
I definitely think that the Revlon Balm Stains are worth the money, I use them everyday and I am not even halfway done yet. A pity I don't see any other colour that catches my eyes.
