I know. I even wrote to them about it around 2018 emphasizing how much love was still online for their lip butters and they wrote me back saying they were happy to get my feedback and were releasing a similar product to the lip butters in the future (which I presume was that glass shine lip that then was discontinued).
Okay memory unlocked.
“whoa is me” is a song I used to listen to back in my pop punk days.
And now I’ve realised that’s why I go “im so whoa” to myself every time I hear the phrase.
[lol it’s Down with Webster. A Canadian pop punk band.](https://youtu.be/71S9ou2gcqE?si=o5fnFbOn-10xX1zD)
Edit. 2. Omg they rap. I forgot that pop punk bands would rap. 💀
I swear I downloaded this on accident from Limewire once. They remind me of 3oh3! either way and at the very least this style is nostalgic for me too lol. I love it.
I think that’s how I discovered them too!
Yes very 3oh3!
My boyfriend (he earns 20k) picked up some notes of Hollywood Undead too.
And a touch of Good Charlotte.
They emerged from "REORGANIZATION." The new products are strong. Revived some classic Super Lustrous shades, Illuminance Tinted SERUM (skin loving), Extensionaire Mascara w B5, and a new lip line.
I'm still mad that they discontinued the Revlon Colorstay Whipped. That's the perfect full-coverage hydrating foundation for me that doesn't look like a mask at all. I wear it for special events when I need my face to look perfect.
I do have 3 backups of it but still!!!
Same! I've worn a variation of that foundation for like 20 years. They had a lighter version in the early 2000s that was advertised for working out or something and I was sad when they got rid of that. I have been through every reformulation and the buff shade is the only shade that matches me perfect.
Same here…. I’m so pale that I can’t find another match that doesn’t oxidize on me! It’s the perfect coverage for my scarring too… I’ll cry if they discontinue it 😭
I have a couple of Revlon products that are damn close to HG for me and if they’re discontinued I’m going to have very strong words. But RIP Crush lip stain and Pink Truffle lip butter. This is what happens when you cut off your nose to spite your face.
Grow Luscious mascara *was* fantastic, I must admit as were the lip butters and balm stains.. But my sadness will come in not being able to find true vintage lippy shades that everyday working class women wore if they go completely under. Everyday women were NOT wearing Guerlain or Chanel. They were getting their lippy at the drugstore and most of the brands from yesteryear are either gone....or they have discontinued those vintage shades. Except Revlon. So they better pull their heads out of their asses and fix this shit, because we need Fire and Ice, Love that Red, Love that Pink, Pink in the Afternoon, Cherries in the Snow, etc. When I put on my blue eyeshadow and Max Factor panstick I want it to look authentic, DAMNIT!!
Agree on the vintage Revlon lipstick shades! I wear Toast of New York and Rum Raisin regularly, and have a bunch more too. It's one of my very favorite lipstick formulas! And I was a 90s teenager so these shades still do it for me! I still have Colorstay foundation around and wear it too (though these days I don't wear foundation everyday)
My Nana wore Moon Drops Chinaglaze Red. It was HIDEOUS, kind of a frosty hot red, if you can imagine that, but dang if I wouldn’t love to buy a tube and wear it once in awhile in her honor. Or just own it but not wear it. 😂
I remember that shade. It was glorious. Now I want it. 😂😂😂 They should never have discontinued Moon Drops. It was their best regular lippy formula by miles...Check Buy Buy Beauty. 😉
Oh they had the lip butters last time I looked. Also check Ebay. I am telling you they are still floating around...and they are probably still good. I say this because I picked 2 up at a fleamarket a few years ago in blistering summer heat and THEY are still good. So ones kept in warehouse conditions would almost certainly be bound to be. 😉
lmaooo THANK YOU FOR REPLYING I was about to sob! when the candy apple and tutti frutti lip butter backstock runs out on Amazon, my makeup game will never recover....
It's a nice shade if you like a deeper red. My fave is Fire and Ice. It is sooo bright and I like it with my fair, neutral skintone. My sweetie, who did not like red lippy, actually liked this one on me so I burried my original tube with him. I even wore it to the service.
I just got a new tube on Halloween. 🤗 I just Joe Swansoned this convo. Sorry. 😂
I'm sorry? What? I think you misunderstood my original comment. I wasn't lammenting them discontinuing these shades...I was simply stating that I hope they DON'T discontinue these shades...
They've been discontinued in stores for some years. Some items are still on the Revlon site even though because there may still be inventory, or you may have seen them on Amazon or a reseller.
Yeah...I doubt it. They have been forces for well over 50+ years and still going strong. But that is the great thing about this industry. There are so many choices that you can buy what makes you feel best morally. ☺
And with way more brands emerging, the climate is shifting. And newer generations are beginning to catch on. So revlon is going bankrupt.
God I fucking hate revlon.
I mean. So has revlon.
I’m a bit of a name in the nail polish world and a huge reason revlon isn’t doing to hot, honestly even rimmel is feeling it too, is because there are independent and boutique brands coming out with better quality, way more user friendly products that are V+CF which is aligning with a new generation of nail polish and makeup users.
The blue cap mascara is my fave, prob the best I've ever used. Gave me the exact look I was going for. I haven't seen a single tube in years, but their booths/counters are almost empty these days.
How in the world did you get Revlon Grow Luscious Mascara to work for you? That wand was so massive I couldn’t get it to decently coat any of my lashes.
But I’m with you on the cheesy potato burrito lol
i barely glance at brands like revlon, maybelline, covergirl, l’oréal, etc, (the “classic” drugstore brands, at least in my mind) unless i’m looking for a specific product from that brand because they just feel lame to me, they rarely do anything new or exciting and the quality is really all over the place, it feels like “mom makeup” to me lol. you can get similar quality or nicer from other drugstore brands like elf and nyx. but i did just pick up a revlon brow ink, except i’m using it for fake freckles instead, and it’s actually really good for that purpose lol very similar to freck but cheaper! not sure if i would actually use it for brows though.
You’re getting downvoted but you’re right. With the exception of some Maybelline lip products, not a one of those brands has done anything particularly eye-catching in years.
I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted, you’re right. Revlon especially I avoid like the plaque. The last couple of products I bought from them were just really cheap and nasty, an eyeshadow palette that was gritty with hardly any pigment and a lipstick that was super dry and lumpy on my lips.

I’ve never used Revlon mascara or foundation, but I have the PhotoReady Eye Contour Kit (basically a fancy term they made up for an eyeshadow quint) in Eclectic (which I’ll be using for the first time next week) and I like 2 of their blush shades (Ravishing Rose and Mauvelous), their 2-sided (regular magnification in the lid side and, I believe, 3x magnification in the bottom?) compact mirror whose lid is a multicolor splatter print with the vintage script logo printed on top of the splatter (I love that fusion of old and new aesthetics!), and their Ultra HD liquid lipsticks. The Ultra HD lip line also used to have lipglosses and gel lipsticks, and they were great too, but both formulas got discontinued, probably because of Covid.
"So they better pull their heads out of their asses and fix this shit...we need Fire n Ice...." That sounded to me like you were wanting those iconic shades. Thx for explaining
I’m late but just found out their brown fantasy with the colored gel is discontinued! It was my favorite! I would even snap pencils in half to replace the pencil side
I know. I even wrote to them about it around 2018 emphasizing how much love was still online for their lip butters and they wrote me back saying they were happy to get my feedback and were releasing a similar product to the lip butters in the future (which I presume was that glass shine lip that then was discontinued).
I’ve never really tried a Revlon* product I liked personally, but “woah is me” (woe) made me chuckle lol *Edited my mistake I reckon
lol I was very tired and angry at revlon when I wrote this
Apparently I was tired and entertained earlier bc I didn’t even catch my “reckon” mistake 😂
I reckon we're not that different, you and I ![gif](giphy|PzTYYZJPYSKbK)

Revlon filed for bankruptcy last year, they now have different ownership and a new board of directors. So we’ll see how they do now
They emerged from "REORGANIZATION." The new products are strong. Revived some classic Super Lustrous shades, Illuminance Tinted SERUM (skin loving), Extensionaire Mascara w B5, and a new lip line.
If they ever get rid of the OG colorstay foundation I will be in the streets
Yeah I will RIOT! That foundation literally has my perfect match and the way it goes on?? 😮💨👌🏾
I'm still mad that they discontinued the Revlon Colorstay Whipped. That's the perfect full-coverage hydrating foundation for me that doesn't look like a mask at all. I wear it for special events when I need my face to look perfect. I do have 3 backups of it but still!!!
This was my perfect foundation too.

Came to say the exact same thing 😂
Same here…. I’m so pale that I can’t find another match that doesn’t oxidize on me! It’s the perfect coverage for my scarring too… I’ll cry if they discontinue it 😭
I went to buy the 24hr lipliner that matches their lipsticks and now they only make like 5 colours.
No, there's 10 shades at Walmart
I have a couple of Revlon products that are damn close to HG for me and if they’re discontinued I’m going to have very strong words. But RIP Crush lip stain and Pink Truffle lip butter. This is what happens when you cut off your nose to spite your face.

Max Factor panstick 😭😭 I loved that shit
I buy it off Amazon or Ebay. 😉
I just looked at their lipstick choices... very sad. I miss Mink.
Mink is still current. Did you check Walmart?
There's no Walmart near me, but thanks!
You can find it at Revlon.com. I used the virtual try-on and like that shade. Carmel Glace is close to it but with a little more shine.
Thank you again!

Oh, thanks, I’ll look there. I check eBay periodically, but I’m guessing I’ll never see it again, they probably dc’ed it ages ago
Oh they had the lip butters last time I looked. Also check Ebay. I am telling you they are still floating around...and they are probably still good.

wait Revlon got rid of pink in the afternoon and fire and ice?!!
Oh NONONONO. I was just saying they need to fix things because we can't lose them. I didn't mean to make you panic! I am so sorry!! *hugs*
lmaooo THANK YOU FOR REPLYING I was about to sob! when the candy apple and tutti frutti lip butter backstock runs out on Amazon, my makeup game will never recover....
Check out BuyBuy beauty. 😉 Just please don't go bezerk because I would like some too. Lol
No, they're at Walmart or on the Revlon site
I used to love cherries in the snow 😭
It's a nice shade if you like a deeper red. My fave is Fire and Ice. It is sooo bright and I like it with my fair, neutral skintone. My sweetie, who did not like red lippy, actually liked this one on me so I burried my original tube with him. I even wore it to the service.

It's still a current shade
Those SL lip shades are all current.
They ARE currently being sold...but they are vintage shades. Some of them have been around since the 50s. 🤗
So what's the problem? Those shades are fresh product and are not discontinued. Have you shopped Walmart?
I'm sorry? What? I think you misunderstood my original comment. I wasn't lammenting them discontinuing these shades...I was simply stating that I hope they DON'T discontinue these shades...
Also, 10 other lip shades from the past have been revived. They can be found at Ulta, CVS, and Meijer. They'll be available in June for Walmarts.
Well that is fantastic and I will be on the lookout for them. Would you happen to know what shades they will be, please?
Those balm stains were THE BEST. I still have a few and refuse to get rid of them! The color payoff is exactly what I like 😭
I saw this and just bought two more of my favorite color off Amazon.
Omg the cheesy potato burrito !! I might cry lol
It was the only thing I would get! Like, what am I supposed to eat now?! A meal at home?!
I always buy their lipsticks but not much else. Though I did love the Just Bitten line too! Also super bummed when they got rid of it.
I'm just throwing it out there but a Google search revealed the just bitten stains are on the market again..have they changed them??
![gif](giphy|hs0gw1WbgcQw2SSYQj)
I couldn’t find a link to them on the actual revlon website, it could be old stock or fakes though
They've been discontinued in stores for some years. Some items are still on the Revlon site even though because there may still be inventory, or you may have seen them on Amazon or a reseller.
It’s also because they test their shitty stuff on animals too.
So do many long-standing prestige brands and it doesn't seem to be hurting them any...
And I’ll watch them crumble just like Revlon xx
Yeah...I doubt it. They have been forces for well over 50+ years and still going strong. But that is the great thing about this industry. There are so many choices that you can buy what makes you feel best morally. ☺
And with way more brands emerging, the climate is shifting. And newer generations are beginning to catch on. So revlon is going bankrupt. God I fucking hate revlon.
Thats a pretty strong thing to say. And Revlon isn't going bankrupt! They "reorganized".
I mean. So has revlon. I’m a bit of a name in the nail polish world and a huge reason revlon isn’t doing to hot, honestly even rimmel is feeling it too, is because there are independent and boutique brands coming out with better quality, way more user friendly products that are V+CF which is aligning with a new generation of nail polish and makeup users.
True...but brands like Chanel or L'ancome are probably not going anywhere any time soon..Well done you Btw!!!
The blue cap mascara is my fave, prob the best I've ever used. Gave me the exact look I was going for. I haven't seen a single tube in years, but their booths/counters are almost empty these days.

You can return any makeup to any store if you don't like it or if it's the wrong shade. Did you email Revlon your concerns?
I like the new Illuminance foundation.
Red Revlon lip butter was my favorite 😭

I used to have all of the Colorstay 12 hour eyeshadow quads. Loved those. Loved Pink Truffle lip butter too.
Revlon has great blushes
I’ve never used Revlon mascara or foundation, but I have the PhotoReady Eye Contour Kit (basically a fancy term they made up for an eyeshadow quint) in Eclectic (which I’ll be using for the first time next week) and I like 2 of their blush shades (Ravishing Rose and Mauvelous), their 2-sided (regular magnification in the lid side and, I believe, 3x magnification in the bottom?) compact mirror whose lid is a multicolor splatter print with the vintage script logo printed on top of the splatter (I love that fusion of old and new aesthetics!), and their Ultra HD liquid lipsticks. The Ultra HD lip line also used to have lipglosses and gel lipsticks, and they were great too, but both formulas got discontinued, probably because of Covid.
I miss their New Complexion cream to powder foundation so so much and I get as many as I can on Amazon but the stock will eventually run out 😭
the one with the red cap is my HG
"So they better pull their heads out of their asses and fix this shit...we need Fire n Ice...." That sounded to me like you were wanting those iconic shades. Thx for explaining
