Revlon's silky, universally flattering Rum Raisin lip balm is down to just $9
One surefire way to give your lips new life is with a smooch of tinted balm. The Revlon Super Lustrous Glass Shine Balm has been the talk of TikTok, with most fans blowing kisses to its universally flattering Rum Raisin shade. Right now, you can grab the ultra-hydrating hue on sale for just $9.
This balm is popular for a reason, so seeing it marked down to $9 from $12 is exciting. Most shades run around the same price, give or take a dollar. If you spot one you like, don't hesitate. We've already seen one of the 10 shades disappear, and it hadn't been on the virtual shelves long enough to collect a speck of dust.
In December, Revlon reintroduced Super Lustrous Glass Shine Balm in five returning shades and added five newbies, each in a fresh white case. Better yet, the brand says the balm is now 40% more hydrating. Hyaluronic acid, aloe and a bit of rose quartz are responsible for the boost.
These hues were thoughtfully chosen to flatter a wide variety of skin tones. The hottest shade of the bunch is Rum Raisin. The nourishing tinted balm is a subtle, shiny take on its vampy cult-classic sister lipstick. The viral star is having a serious moment on TikTok too.
One fan noted: "Everyone I see use this color looks absolutely beautiful wearing it." After testing it, they added: "Wow. It is very pigmented and absolutely beautiful. I definitely see that shine, that glassy finish. ... I need to go back and get more colors. ... It's super hydrating on the lips."
The reviews are still rolling in, but this lip balm has definitely caught on, with 4,000 sold in the past month alone. Some shoppers even say it reminds them of Clinique's iconic Black Honey.
One five-star fan wrote, "I ordered the Rum Raisin variation. It's very hydrating. The color is deep, yet it's light on the lips. It sort of hugs your lips ... doesn't feel as though it's going to come off quickly. It has a classy, elegant shine. I'm a huge fan."
Another fan added: "This is a beautiful lipstick balm hybrid. Nice color payoff, super shiny, no smell or taste. Very comfortable on my lips and does feel nourishing. Loving the Rum Raisin color, a red plum brown. Compares to Clinique Black Honey... but [Revlon's] Rum Raisin is better in my opinion because the color payoff is faster to achieve and more shiny and just feels so much more nourishing on my lips."
"Super hydrating and glossy," said a third. "I got the Rum Raisin. It looks shiny with good pigmentation on colored skin. Super recommended product for all skin tones. It's just beautiful, balmy and shiny on my brown skin."
This fan called it the "best everyday lipstick" but saw room for improvement with staying power: "This lipstick just glides on my lips beautifully, does not accentuate dry patches or lines. The color will disappear after eating, so touch-ups are required during the day; it does not last super long."
Another agreed: "Nice update on an old standard product. Rum Raisin has been a favorite product for many years. This update makes it easier to apply and more moisturizing. I don't think it has the staying power of the original formula, but the glossy color is still very pretty and comfortable to wear."
The reviews quoted above reflect the most recent versions at the time of publication.

'Adults' star Malik Elassal: Add Canadian comedian, actor and writer to the list of comedy sensations
For decades, comedy has been considered one of Canada's greatest exports, including notable talents like Eugene Levy, Martin Short, Catherine O'Hara and the late John Candy. Adding to that legacy is Malik Elassal, who stars in the popular new show Adults (on Disney+ in Canada, Hulu in the U.S.), created by Ben Kronengold and Rebecca Shaw (The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon). Making the move from Alberta to the U.S., incredibly skilled in hysterical stand-up comedy, with moments from his sets going viral, Elassal is set to be another of one Canada's comedy legends. And what makes Adults a great introduction for many is that the show really showcases each cast member's unique comedy strengths. "We all come from these different places, but when we come together there's something between all of us," Elassal told Yahoo Canada. "Amita [Rao] is an improviser. Lucy [Freyer] was an actor in Juilliard. But then when we come together, we sort of have our our own rhythm that's outside of improv training, outside of more standard actors training, or outside of TikTok." In Aults, a group of friends move in together in Samir's (Malik Elassal) childhood home in New York. Samir is trying, at least sometimes, to take on more responsibility in life, Billie (Lucy Freyer) is pursuing a career in journalism, Anton (Owen Thiele) was Samir's college roommate who can be friends with anyone. Issa (Amita Rao) is taking on odd jobs with her infectious personality, and she's dating Paul Baker (Jack Innanen), who she convinces Samir to let move in with the rest of the group. The show in intensely funny in a way that leans into absurdity at times, awkwardness at others, and navigates different elements and styles of comedy effortlessly, largely thanks to this impressive cast. With Elassal already receiving positive feedback from the show, he's really just happy to make people smile and laugh. "It feels like it falls in line with my love language, to give somebody this big thing and for them to enjoy it," he said. As Elassal described, a lot of the brilliant on-screen chemistry we see between this group of friends in Adults was formed by the natural evolution of the group's off-screen dynamic. "[When] we started hanging out and started being on set, you just realize that somebody has been on the same version of the internet as you," Elassal said about his friendship with fellow Canadian Jack Innanen. "We just really became close." With Samir having a particularly close frienship with Billie in the show, Elassal added that even just taking walks with Lucy Freyer and ribbing each other in real life informed what we see on-screen. Additionally, Kronengold and Shaw looked to the actors to inform their scripts. "We started to find out that things from our lives would end up in the script," Elassal said. "So we'd have takes where we got to add things in there, and that was always really fun." A particularly hysterical moment in the show is Episode 6, where Billie is hosting her boyfriend, and her former high school teacher, played by Charlie Cox, for dinner. As Billie tries to get all of her roommates in line with the hopes of a more sophisticated evening, things quickly take an unexpected and hysterical turn when Cox's character shows up high on a "pony dose" of ketamine, and Paul Baker's friend, who happens to be Julia Fox (who's playing herself), comes over for the meal. "We were block shooting the whole series, so every episode was over the span of like four or five days, or so. And usually we have different locations and we were going to different places, but ... for like four or five days in a row we're just in this house, basically," Elassal explained about that epiosde. "And I'm in this giant suit looking ridiculous and running around, and it just felt like a day that never ended." "It really kind of led into this dreary, looming feeling that the episode has. ... Charlie would show up, and then me and Charlie would have scenes together at like 2:00 a.m., after everybody went home, and he was kissing me on the forehead. It's all just very surreal. ... And then one day they're like, 'Oh, hey, Julia Fox is coming today.' ... You see my reaction to Julia Fox being on my couch in the episode, ... it's basically just how I felt." In terms of what drew Elassal to a career in comedy, there wasn't necessarily a specific "breakthrough" moment, but he can identify the time that he understood the feeling of being able to make someone laugh. "I remember a moment watching my older cousin, when I was younger, stand up and do an impression of his dad to all of the aunts and uncles, ... and him making them all laugh so hard," Elassal said. "And I was like, 'Oh, this is the coolest person I've ever seen.'" "I think something from that time might have gotten in my head of like, that's a real, worthwhile thing to do in your life, is to be able to make a group of people that happy." While a Canadian making the move to the U.S. always feels like a big professional step, it was a "culture shock" for Calgary-raised Elassal. "It's insane. It's such a culture shock," Elassal said. "You're going to the airport in America and they have signs up like, hey please don't bring your gun on the plane. And I'm like, are people doing that? Like, accidentally?" "I mean, there's a craziness to America. And it's fun to live there. But whenever I come back to Canada, I still feel at home, even though New York is home right now." As Elassal's career progresses, from stand-up comedy to TV, and even joining projects from other famed comedians, like Pete Holmes' podcast, "You Made It Weird," we certainly can't wait to see what Elassal does next. "It's unbelievable. I'm consistently so happy to get to meet all these people that I was already such a fan of, and it's amazing to get to work with them," he said. "It's such a dream come true. ... I'm really lucky that I get to have my dreams come true."

'Teen Mom' Alum David Eason's Ex-Girlfriend's Daughter Dies Unexpectedly at 7
David Eason's ex-girlfriend Olivia Leedham's daughter Lailah has died unexpectedly. A friend of Leedham, who shares 10-year-old son Kaden with the Teen Mom alum, announced the tragic news in a GoFundMe which seeks support to cover living expenses for Leedham and her son over the next couple of months. Leedham's mom confirmed Lailah's death to PEOPLE. "Our friend Olivia Leedham tragically lost her beautiful seven-year-old daughter, Lailah Price, yesterday," the GoFundMe description reads. "She was in the emergency room several times without a diagnosis, and while in the hospital Friday night, she had a seizure and passed away early Saturday morning, June 7th." "Olivia is a single mom to Kaden, age 10, and Lailah, age 7. Lailah was a bright light in our family and loved life and Jesus very much," the description continues. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Leedham has sole custody of her and Eason's son Kaden after a 2019 court battle. Eason married Jenelle Evans in 2017. The pair share daughter Ensley and went on to separate in 2019 before getting back together in 2020. In 2024, Evans confirmed that she had officially split from Eason. She shared a TikTok and publicly announced the news with a video in which she shared, "I filed for separation." She later posted another video explaining that she had to file for separation in the state of North Carolina before filing for divorce. Evans had previously stood by her estranged husband over the years amid legal trouble. In May 2019, the influencer temporarily lost custody of her two younger children after Eason shot and killed their family dog for biting their then-2-year-old daughter in the face. That July, the reality star confirmed to PEOPLE she had regained custody of her son and daughter. In November 2021, Eason also had a run-in with the law when he was caught driving with a revoked license and being in possession of an open container. Read the original article on People
