I have never really invested a lot of money into make-up because living in Australia, things were just...too bloody expensive to be honest with you. Take a Clarins milk cleanser; a 400ml bottle can set you back about €23 in Germany whereas a smaller (200ml) bottle in Australia is around $40AUD (€30).
Another thing that is quite ridiculously priced are the Revlon Lip Butters. They retail for a whopping $21.95AUD which, for a drugstore lipstick is beyond ridiculous but what's more ridiculous is that the lip butters are the cheapest of the Revlon lipsticks.
So when I was in Singapore during a 3 hour transit on my way back to Germany I managed to pick up a few Revlon Lip Butters at the Singapore airport (as Revlon is not available in Germany).

(Tutti Frutti - Sweet Tart - Lollipop)
Tutti Frutti
After reading the reviews on this I was convinced that this would be the best suited for my skin tone but the orange on my lips was too orange and somehow made my skin look a little grey perhaps it's clashing too much with my skin. Maybe I can mix it with another lipstick colour to tone it down, it was a toss up between this one and "candy apple" so maybe I should have gotten that one instead??
Sweet Tart
A warm toned pink which is rather bright at first application and takes some time to get used (if you are not usually a bright lipstick wearer like myself) to but turns into a beautiful pink as it warms to the lips.
Lollipop
This is a cool toned pink/purple and of all the three, this one suited me the most. Although it is not as sheer as some of the other lip butters it does wear off easily, and when it does, it tends to noticeably settle within the lines of my lips.
Where: Singapore Changi airport, Watson ($9.30SG for 15ml)
