Bourjois Color Boost Lip Crayon

More brands come out with their versions of lip crayons. My first of the collection is the Revlon Kissable Balm Stains. I went overboard with those and owned all but two shades. Found those pretty good lasting power and they do stain the lips but a bit drying after a few hours.


Bourjois released their version of lip crayon. This is not a stain but the concept is very similar. Twist top and shaped like a crayon.



Orange Punch

Orange Punch is a very soft coral pink color. I got mine online and I wouldn't think I would love this color so much.

Tarte Joy is more orange and has a more glossy finish. Bourjois Orange Punch has a more coral tone to it. 


Revlon Kissable Balm Stains

Revlon Kissable Balm Stain in Rendezvous is very similar to Bourjois Color Boost in Orange Punch. Revlon's is more orange while the Bourjois has more coral tone to it.

I have been using the Bourjois Orange Punch for almost a week now. Although these are not lip stains but I find their lasting power extremely impressive. It moisturizes your lips but does not wear off easily. I applied in the morning and even after a few drinks and lunch, the color still stay on. It also has a sheen but not glossy finish like lip gloss. To me, it has the best of the two worlds, moisturizes and stay long. It also has SPF. Planning to get at least one more shade.

Have you tried Bourjois Color Boost Lip Crayon? What are your thoughts? Do you like these lip crayon products or prefer lipsticks?

    I love my Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Rendezvous! I LOVE Orange-Corals, but unfortunately there is no Bourjois in Malaysia, where I live :(

      I ordered mine from Asos.com and they ship worldwide with free shipping. This one is out of stock for now. But if you are interested, you can check on their website from time to time.

      I just went to pick up another shade from Shoppers Drug Mart yesterday. I picked up Peach on the beach which is a very nice pinkish orange color. Really love the moisturizing properties of this balm and the staying power.

    Wow, that sounds really good! I have the CoverGirl versions of these balm glosses, but haven't tried any others.

      I tried the CoverGirl version as well but it doesn't seem to stay long on my lips. This one is moisturizing and surprisingly stay long.

    That is a beautiful coral shade, and I am surprised at how glossy the finish is! Thanks for the review ^_^

      think you would love these ones. This color is quite subtle on my lips and they are so moisturizing and last a long time on mine. Highly recommend this.
