Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain Review

I have been using this lip stain for a little over 2 months now and this stuff is honestly the best lip product i have ever tried. 
For the last four years the only lip product i have used has been chapstick.
So what made me try a stain? 
Lip gloss gets everywhere and a lot of the time if i wear it with my glasses some how it ends up on the lenses and is very hard to get off. 
I really hope I'm not the only one this happens to...
Anyways lip gloss is to high maintenance for me
Now lipstick on the other hand just drys out my lips and i worry too much about it getting on my teeth.
both however, are messy and stop me from being able to do simple tasks during the day and make me constantly think about re-applying.
So, while looking through Cosmo magazine one day i saw the add for Revlon's Balm Stain.
I went on YouTube and found only a few reviews but all said it was pretty good
i decided to go pick one up, let me tell you that that was the best idea i have ever had!
These stains are amazing
Not only do they stay on all day long without worrying about the color fading
(that means kiss away girls!)
but...
They also hydrate your lips like a balm would.
needless to say after my first try with only one i started buying more.
I have 5 colors now 
The names are (starting at the left)
Smitten, Honey, Rendezvous, Charm, and Romantic.
Smitten (top) is a dark type of violet color that looks really nice for an evening or really feminine look.
Romantic (bottom) is a very bold red and what i am also wearing in the picture at the top.
I absolutely adore this color. 
I have always wanted to rock red lips but never knew how. with this stain i do it all the time now and it instantly gives me a confidence boost.
Rendezvous (left) is a bright coral color with a hint of red. I wear this one to work often and its a very subtle way to wear a bolder lip color.
Charm (middle) is a nude. it is great for putting under a gloss to hold it so its not so stick. 
but i love paring it with a bold eye just to give my lips a bit of color.
Honey (right) is the best for everyday. It's a little darker than my lip color so it's really a my-lips-but-better type of color for me.
I love wearing it out and to work but when i just want to dress up a bit for class i throw this on and its perfect.

These stains are really easy and fast to put on. they are shaped like giant crayons so all you have to do is roll on and go!
the fast, no hassle part is by far the biggest perk for me on these.
I would really recommend these to anyone asking for a lip product and have even gotten my mom hooked.
(She also hates lipstick.)

Well there you guys go!
I hope this helped if you were wondering about this product. 
If you have any suggestions or anything else to say please right in the comments
I would love to hear from you!
until nest time...

My big secret is that I am fighting my way through depression.
