There has been a lot of hype around the Revlon Lip Butters this year.
Youtube gurus rave about them, and they can be found in many "Best Beauty Products of 2012" lists.
Other drugstore brands have and are introducing new products to top the Lip Butters.
One brand in particular, Maybelline.
Maybelline has recently introduced their Color Sensational Color Whisper lipstick.
I have only purchased one of them after doing some color research to figure out which I'd like best.
Go figure it's practically the same color as my lip butter when applied.
Time to compare!

Revlon Lip Butter is harder to build color. It can slide around and become uneven the more you apply.
Maybelline Color Whisper is easy to build color. It can be sheer or you can build it to be more opaque.
Moisturizing:
Both left my lips moisturized.
Lasting Power:
Both stay on the same amount of time, even when eating and drinking.

Both products are basically the same, other than their consistency and the buildability.
I still love my Revlon lip butters,
but I might have to try a few more Maybelline Color Whispers.

I love them both! They're almost the same, so Maybelline really stepped up their game for this product, in my opinion.
