Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain

I don’t have very much info yet on these Chubby-pretenders, but I do have a sample and it’s very lovely indeed. Inevitably, everyone is going to compare these to Clinique Chubby sticks, and there is a difference in texture in that the Revlon Just Bitten is not quite as soft to apply as Chubby. However, the colour I have here, Lovesick, is definitely quite heavy on the stain aspect, giving both lipstain and a balmy effect.

In the US they’re $8.99, which Mr BBB informs me is about £6-ish, so when they launch (not sure when) they will definitely stand up against the £16 to lay down for a Clinique Chubby Stick. I would say that Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain, which comes in 12 shades, is a very good budget alternative, but in terms of quality, Clinique nudges it.

  1. I’ve been pondering the chubby sticks for a while now but may wait for these as they’re so much more affordable. Can’t wait to try!

    I got sent Honey from a lovely girl in the States – I think there are some lovely colours there but yeah I agree, they are definitely less ‘balmy’. Also, they could have been more creative with the name – its too similar to the just bitten stains from last year – so confusing! :S

    I’ve seen these pop up on a few US blogs, they look just like the Chubby Sticks – but with a better name! I really dislike the word ‘chubby’. I’ll be interested in seeing what these are like when they hit the UK stores!

    I’ve wanted a Chubby Stick for a while but may go for one of these instead – much easier on the bank balance! x

  5. I’ve been tempted by the Clinique chubby sticks but they are quite expensive. I suppose you get what you pay for in terms of the quality. When do these launch? xx

    How exciting. I can’t wait until they launch here. Thank you for the swatch

  7. Oh since you already got a sample, the release in the UK must be around the corner?
    Can’t wait to try these, glad I laid off ordering at boots still hehe x

    The original Just Bitten marker pen stylee was the bane of my life. It dried up quicker than a nun at…….

    Um, I’ll leave that one there.

    Suffice to say it dried out quick. But these look good, will await further review.

    Got a couple of these when I was away in NY last week, think they are just released there too as they were on a promotional stand ,they are glossy and balmy which wears away to leave a stain on your lips. Haven’t used the infamous chubby sticks so can’t compare.

  10. These have been a huge hit here in the U.S., but just so you know…the Revlon Balm Stains are very different from the Clinique Chubby Sticks. The Clinique product is very very sheer and moisturizing, with variable staying power. The Revlon is almost like a lipstick that really really stains.

    this is so nice! I’ve been looking for this in my local shops but can’t find it! http://lovelifebloglog.blogspot.co.uk/

    the Revlon formula is SO MUCH BETTER!!!!

    Just as I’ve thought, it’s much cheaper than Clinique’s chubby sticks. I love Revlon products, they don’t give me allergies. Clinique’s products are very good too, what I usually have in there product line is the liquid base foundation.

  14. Looks interesting… I hope it’s a bit more pigmented than the chubby sticks though
