Smooth, creamy & pigmented

I was nosing around the lipstick section in one of those Brand Outlet pop-up stores when I spotted this little number.

The packaging is lovely. I'm a big fan of gold (my mother's influence, perhaps!) so I was instantly drawn to it. As other reviewers have noted, it does look a little old fashioned - but I prefer to say vintage. It reminds me of Art Deco buildings in a way: kind of geometric?

However, the actual stick is a round shape which I find a little difficult when it comes to filling in my cupid's bow. But then again, using my brush fixed that problem immediately.

The tube I picked up is in the shade 'Satiny Cocoa' and boy does it live up to its name! The formula is so smooth. Soooo smooth, it's like the nicest lip balm you've ever put on your lips.

The colour is nice too, but requires a few layers before it builds up to opaque but I think this is a good thing - you can control how sheer you want it, and with a darker colour like this, that's a good asset. The colour is quite dark (darker than I would normally go), and is on the brown side rather than the berry side.

It lasts quite well, too. I had to reapply after lunch, but I found that it came off rather evenly? It didn't leave that weird ring around your lip line, so that's a plus! (I reapplied when I got home too because I loved it that much!)

It was super cheap when I picked it up at the pop-up store: only $8. It's the type of lipstick where I would have multiple shades (or all of them if i could!) and I'm totally kicking myself for going on the last day and not getting more!

Tips: Buy more than one! Don't make the same mistake I did!!

Marry Me plzzzz

I love this lipstick! It lasts all day and then some! After applying it you have a nice matte feeling, it has glitter in it ! And the colours are BOLD I wear it when i go on long trips because i know it won't budge through, taking, eating, drinking etc I have mine in a beautiful reddy orange shade, and it looks amazing. Doesn't feel greasy or sticky and the bullet is so beautiful and high-end looking. I would definitely love to purchase more colours of this because just wow.

Tips: Use a liner first if you have the more bold colours so that the lines look more smooth

Brown for dayysss

I recieved one of these in a mystery make up bag off of GrabOne and the excitement for a new lippy was short lived.

The packaging is gorgeous, but that's probably the only thing it has going for it. The smell of the lipstick is a bit weird - smells like moth balls with a bit of musk mixed in and you can taste it in the back of your throat - it's not pleasant. The color I had was brown and well, it was ugly.

The formula does feel very creamy, so that's nice, but the smell and taste take away every good thing about this product. I wouldn't go out and repurchase this, and I would do my research if I were to buy something else in this range, but it's not likely.

A bit granny

L'Oreal lipsticks aren't my favourite. The packaging is a bit old-fashioned and I hate the old-lady's handbag smell.

Tips: Try Revlon or Maybelline instead.

Naturally Nude

I love this lipstick. It's perfect for everyday wear or when you want an understated but still polished look for your lips. The one that I own is Naturally Nude (803) and it has a different colour in the middle which I think moisturises and helps the colour to look natural. It glides on beautifully and doesn't dry your lips out. It has a nice smell and shines without being glittery or shimmery. It's not too expensive either, especially if you can find it on sale!

Tips: You can usually find this range in sales or at outlet stores. I purchased mine at the outlet chemist in Dressmart Mall - they have some good products and sales. I got mine in a two for one deal.

Rich in Colour.

L'Oreal Colour Riche Lipsticks, I am lucky enough to have a few of these in multiple different shades and they are a great lipstick, I wasn't overly excited about tying them to be honest as I have tried others and was not a big fan.

The packaging is nothing to get excited over we all know the goldy type colour that it comes in with the sticker on the bottom saying the shade and the shade number which I love as I can keep my lipsticks up side down in my lipstick holder and it makes choosing my shade for the day easy, i have always loved how L'Oreal has that clip thing I don't know what it is but I have just always really liked that.

Such good pigment in a huge variety in colours, they have hit it on the head with the amazing range and great pigments in this range and around $20 is not alot to spend on a good lipstick so that is a great bonus, the a nice moistursing, kind of silky, velvety texture, so I know my lips underneath are not getting dry, but then they don't really set either so I found they did come off while a ate and had drinks, if greeting someone with a kiss they had lipstick on their cheek so it is a product that you have to take with you so that you can reapply, and you have to reapply quite a few times a day which really sucks but thats the luck of the draw with some lipsticks.

I would though buy again as the colour range is incredible and have tones to suite everyone, I would recommend people buy it, as its not too costly.

Tips: I found if you "kissed" a tissue and got the excess off it did last longer.

The Mystic's Kiss

I have a runway project edition, 486 The Mystics Kiss. I really like this colour, its not something I usually go for but I enjoy wearing this one. It is smooth and glides on and it doesn't feel to heavy on your lips. The colour is a nice berry looking purple. The colour will last a couple of hours before having to apply more. I found it did dry my lips out a bit so I apply a bit of balm underneath first. I would recommend this product if your looking for a colour out of your comfort zone at a reasonable priced lipstick

Tips: Apply balm first and in between applications to keep your lips from drying out.

Favourite red lippy!

I have this lipstick in "red passion" and find it to be a easy to apply formula with great colour payoff. The smell isn't the nicest but the longevity and colour payoff makes up for it. I find it can be a little drying if worn for a long time so i recommend wearing a lip balm underneath.

Good every day lipstick

I've used Color Riche lipsticks for at least the last 10 years of my life. The first colour I got my hands on back then was Saucy Mauve and yes, they still make it. I don't own that colour any more, but I'm trying to get my hands on one because this is the lipstick I wore on my wedding day!

I now have Tickled Pink which is a light frosted pink and its a bit too light for me some days, and a bit too frosted. I'm working on some hacks to tune it down a bit. Tickled Pink lasts a few hours and moisturises well.

The other colour that I LOVE, which I think is like a MLBB/YLBB shade is Peony Pink which is a gorgeous candy pink shade. Really moisturising and lasts for a few hours.

I love the way these lipsticks sit on my lips and give them some moisture. They just don't last as long as some other brands.

Tips: Shop overseas websites, they have more range than what is available here.

Fairest Nude and Doutzen's Nude

I was clearly feeling the nudes on my last spend up in the beauty section at Postie plus! I am very fair, so steer clear of lippies marked as nude as a general rule as they are often quite brown which totally washes me out. When I saw that these were 8-10$ however I hunted down swatches online, liked what I saw, so gave it a gamble! Doutzen's Nude is a Collection Privee lipstick, and is beautifully packaged in a matte black tube with gold lettering and opening. Inside the tube it looks similar in colour to 1995 by Gerard cosmetics- sort of a Kylie Jenner nude. Once swatched however it is a muted brownish peach. It has a reasonably pleasant if not slightly too strong scent and is very creamy to apply. It has a subtle sheen, and is a very flattering shade on my fair skin tone- it warms it up, while still giving quite a natural my lips but better shade. The longevity was not huge on me, as is to be expected with such a creamy formula. This has become my go-to shade- very much my lips but better! Fairest nude comes in the standard gold tube, as pictured above. It has the same scent as the collection privee. The colour is definitely more of a brownish pink, so suitable again for fair skinned (particularly more cool toned) girls such as myself. The only issue I had with this shade is that it basically matches my lips perfectly- so I may as well just apply a lip balm! Would probably suit those fairer than me, or perhaps be better on days when I am looking a little more washed out, when the pigmentation of this lippie may be a little more obvious. The longevity was the same as the collection privee (am assuming the formulas are the same, and only the packaging and shades vary). Will certainly purchase more shades of this as and when it pops up on special as I love the creaminess of this lippie.
