I have so many hot pink/fuchsia lipsticks and although this one has a great texture, soft and creamy, it's not one of my favorites. The color is not cool or warm enough to be memorable, it is sort of generic for a bright pink lipstick and it seems I could find lots of dupes for it, even in my collection. I almost never wear it, somehow it doesn't look that good on my NW15 skin tone as some other fuchsia lippies do. Maybe it has too many red tones, or maybe it's too dark, I don't know...
Don't really like the packaging either, it works well and it looks more expensive than it is, but it's very boring.
Not for me, but it's still a good product.

If you're considering a pink lipstick, Revlon Colorburst Lipstick in Fuschia is one I will definitely recommend.
- A deep, vivid magenta colour. Very pigmented. This is a colour you can wear all year round.
- Very moisturising in comparison to any Mac lipstick. Hardly any dry marks on corners of the mouth.
- Nice consistency. Not heavy on your lips, at all.
- One application is just enough.
- Affordable than any Mac, Chanel lipstick. Better than any drugstore brand.
One of my favourite pink lipsticks to date.

Great universally flattering color! It's blue based, but not too cool imo.. This is just like MAC Girl About Town - I uploaded the pic showing the 2 lipsticks side by side. I find they wear similarly too - MAC's is just slightly longer wearing imo.. but if you want a great dupe - get this.

Very wearable on Asian skin tones. Both my cousin and sister looked great in it (all three of us have different skin tones) Doesn't make your teeth yellowish like other fuchsia pinks I've tried on. Worn it for 2-3 days straight, all day, and re-applied only a couple of times after eating/drinking. However because my lips are slightly pigmented I felt like I needed to really put a thick layer on, and it dries out a little so put some balm on first.

I got caught up in the hype with bright pink lips. So out I went and found the colour on the tube itself was not so bright. Wow, this colour was bright on me, the first time I tried it, I erased it immediately.
Experimenting started to get colour more wearable. Put clear gloss on lip, then lipstick, went to a nice pale pink, but of course did not last long on the lip, ate gloss and everything.
Lined whole lip with brown lipliner, swiped this on, and now I am wearing this. It lasted all day and looked perfect, got a lot of compliments.
Would not buy again, because it will last a long time, and I love red lips more than pink.

Really lovely product. Very creamy texture and a lovely, wearable fuschia colour, i apply it ontop of balm with my fingers for a soft, everyday pop of colour. Quite expensive at £7.99 but the packaging is lovely, very classic and elegant. I have super pale skin and so bright lipsticks really dont look great on me but the lovely texture of this product makes the colour look so lovely and soft that its a definite buy again product for me.

Wow, what an incredible colour! It sort of looks/feels like a very heavily pigmented lip balm with colour that really pops! Very tropical!

Usually I am an eye makeup kind of girl, but after feeling as if I'd nearly conquered that arena (ahem...insofar as budget would allow,) I decided to venture into lipstick. Revlon seemed to be the brand of MUA choice, and when I saw this on sale at Walgreens for $2 and change--I mean, i didn't even check reviews. I figured it would make a nice base for my favorite hot pink revlon gloss, or could gather dust for all I cared at that price. Luckily for me, I had purchased an absolute gem. This lippie is pigmented, lasts through drinks, and isn't nearly as drying as my other favorite revlon lipstick (really red, part of the matte line, so i suppose dry comes with territory.)
I am befuddled as to why anyone would say this isn't pigmented enough--I am a bit pale, granted (nw20)--but my lips are pretty pigmented, and this is BRIGHT. not obnoxiously so, but honestly, it's freaking BRIGHT. If you see it, especially at the insane Walgreens price, get it. I am getting a backup.

For the past year my J. Crew catalogs have been teasing me with their lovely models in bright matte lipstick. I've never worn lipstick before I tried this product, but I read that it's a dupe for a MAC lipstick used in J. Crew ads so I had to try it. Well, I learned that I will never get used to seeing myself with a bright lip product, but I also learned that I love this color. It's a very bright fuschia so if you put it right on there will be LOTS of attention on your lips. I think, due to the size of my mouth compared to my other features, it was too overwhelming. It's a very buildable color though so you can start off sheer, which is how I like it. Or, odd as it sounds, I like applying it and then going with the rest of my activities before heading out (including eating) applying some lip balm and then evenly distributing the color, and then THAT color is the one I prefer. Other women who feel comfortable with the look-at-me'ness of this seem to like it though, so don't let my shyness stop you. I also like taking a lip brush and putting three stripes on my bottom lip and two on the top...rubbing my lips with some lip balm. It gives that "is she wearing something on her lips or are her lips naturally that lovely shade of pink" look I love. The color lasts a long time and it's moisturizing.

This is a nice bright colour but i find it a little too sheer. I dont like to see my natural lip colour through a lipstick, especially a bright one so i think maybe it should be a bit more matte to give a solid colour. But after using concealer on my lips then applying and blotting the lipstick i got the colour i wanted so i would still recommend it.

I just need to comment that this lipstick on me is FAR brighter than on any of the pictures, so I'll probably upload one myself. Fuchsia is a BRIGHT cool toned. blue-based hot fuchsia color that I love, and that looks great on my NC40 skin, with my dark green eyes. Unfortunately, I'm too chicken to wear it out of the house most days :) I did wear it on new years, and occasionally if I go on a girls night out, but I'm more of a nude lipstick girl during the day.
As with all of the Revlon ColorBurst lipsticks, the texture is flawless, the quality is top-notch, and the case is high-quality and looks high-end.
I have 4 ColorBurst lipsticks, Peach, Soft Nude, Rosy Nude, and Fuchsia, and Soft Nude is the only one I don't like (because it's basically corpse lips on me.)
EDIT: My picture is the one that somehow ended up upside down during uploading process- but that is the color with NO gloss on top of it, or under it, applied straight out of the tube, with no blotting.

I love this lipstick. You can wear it with dramatic makeup or a more natural makeup. Perfect for everyday, or a night out. It's just perfect! Beautiful!!

I bought this lipstick on a whim, not expecting fuchsia lipstick to suit me at all, but surprise: it's wearable! Well, not for a conservative workplace, but it won't make you look horribly tacky, which may be the best you can expect from a fuchsia lipstick.
The color is bright, but not painfully so: think of a vivid berry-rose shade. (Since my lips are quite pigmented, the color may be darker on me than on others.) The formula is nice and creamy, just like the other lipsticks in the Colorburst line; however, it does fade quickly, and I find it annoying to keep reapplying such a bright, opaque shade.

Wow this is a bright color. This is a definitely more of a blue tone lipstick. On my NW45/NW47 skintone, it looks nice according to my uber pale friend. I kind of like it but I look like an 80s chick. This does not last long on the lips so you will have to reapply multiple times throughout the day. And you also need a lipliner to make it not travel outside the lip line. If you decide the lipstick, before wearing it, please exfoliate your lips or it will look horrible, this lipstick is slightly drying. I would probably repurchase it

Gorgeous! I usually don't buy DS lipsticks as I work at Ulta and receive a discount. But I am curious when new DS lipsticks come out and am always searching. This color - Fuchsia - is simply stunning. It is nearly identical to a MAC l/s but this one is prettier. Lights up my whole face!

this is a very pretty fuschia.. but that's it.. just pretty.
not phenomenally great, not incrediblely unique.. just pretty.
but after all, isn't pretty really what it's all about? for the price, a must have for good fuschia shade lovers or hot pinkers..
use full on or as a stain with gloss on top it is lovely

Very cute packaging and just enough colour, not too bright like some of Revlon's other lipstick shades. I don't normally wear much make-up but this is one of the lower-end products in my small collection that I have stocked up on and would not want to be without!

Originally I went to Walgreens looking for the MAC Girl About Town dupe, Fuschia Fusion. I got this and FF. I like this one better than FF. I love the way it goes on. I got BOGO so this was really a great deal. I don't like a lot of lipstick brands, but Revlon is def the best drugstore lipstick. I am dark skinned so I tone this lipstick down a bit with a bit of liner under it.

I like that it offers such versatile colours depends on the application. i can either pad the lipstick lightly to stain my lips with young pinky tone, but with a few more wipes it gives bright vivid fuschia-pink. the colour is buidable and not easily wiped off, the texture is creamy but not too shiny. personally think it's better than ColorStay soft&smooth series. continued >>

I normally don't even bother with lipsticks this bold, but I decided to be brave and try it out since I have a wedding coming up that I'm going to be in and wanted something new for. This color is just gorgeous! A vivid fuschia color that isn't too pink, too red, or too purple. Just right. Great for special occasions or going out at night. Nice luster and creamy feel.
