L'Oreal Color Riche Lipstick Review

A sleek pacakging rose gold casing that clips closed with the shade at the bottom of the lipstick.

The lipstick is very nice & appealing. It glies onto my lips effortlessly with nice colour payoff. Very creamy & doesn't flake when dried. Sitting on the lips attractively. I have 3 different shades. One in perticular has golden fleeks thru the lipstick itself but isn't apparent upon application :) A nice clutch day to day lipstick that doesn't have the greatest stay power but in all has a lovely effect for your lips without being tacky or drying on the lips.

I actually have 3 shades of the Color Riche High Shine Lipsticks. I really enjoy these. The packaging is gorgeous and I love wearing them over an all over lip liner. They don't smell great but that doesn't really bother me. They have some great shades so anyone could find one they're after. I do however think they are overpriced

The L'Oreal Color Riche Lipstick range is quite good, in that it has a wide range of colours to choose from and they are all high quality lipsticks. I have shade 374 Intense Plum, which contrasts with my pale skin and looks gorgeous on. The colour is strong, bold and certainly a statement! The lipstick slides on smoothly, with a perfect finish which lasts well for ages. My only criticism would be that it's easy to smudge, and it could be a bit messy if you're not a practiced lipstick applier. I also don't like the packaging as much as other lipstick brands - the gold is a classic, but it doesn't wear very well and gets tarnished and damaged quite easily.

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.

I quite liked this lipstick, although it certainly was not my favourite. I absolutely adored the shades available but I found that the colour tends to rub off after a little while and I was having to re-apply during the day.

Tried this lipstick on a recommendation as I had found some brands wear off pretty quickly. Is a moist lipstick that stays on. Good colour range and the price is amazing

This lipstick has good pigmentation and lasts very well. However, it can feel quite heavy and kind of waxy on the lips. The scent is mildly unpleasant, it smells like the makeup your grandmother might own, but not overly so. The lipstick can be hard to apply, as it tends to 'drag' on the lips. The product isn't suitable for chapped lips, as it clumps on rough skin and settles into fine lines. I only have this lipstick in one shade (297 Red Passion) so this problem may not apply to all shades in the range.

I have a couple of these lippys, cherry crush & sakura petal. cherry crush is a natural every day pink, and sakura petal is a lighter pink which reminds me of ballerinas. anyway I found sakura petal to be too light for me and would recommend it to people with fair pale skin, glides on easily and feels light on your lips, the colour square on the front is a great representation of the actual colour. no complaints really it needs reapplying every few hrs as with most lipsticks

Great colour pigment. Very good creamy texture, easy to wear and long lasting. One of my go too lippys, the packaging it self is worth pulling it out. Has a slight shimmer to it, but not to much which is always good in my books.

I picked this up on a whim to trial a purple lippy. I wasn't able to swatch it instore (Postie Plus) but it was so cheap I bought it anyway - $8 I think.

I have one of the 'Project Runway' series of L'Oreal Color Riche Lipsticks, in shade 486: The Mystic's Kiss. This looks purple, but is more of a dark berry with a hint of purple. It's really pretty but not what I thought I was getting.

This variant comes in a black tube, with silver detailing (The ''Project Runway' logo, which is a bit gimmicky but you expect that with a themed colour I guess) and interior casing/external band. The casing is a squared off tube, flattened at the bottom (where the shade is displayed on a label that is decidedly more purple than the lippy) and angled off at the top - it's quite an attractive wee package, logo aside.

When you wind the bullet up it has a gorgeous sheen, and the typical angled tip - but squared off at the very top, which is a neat wee feature as it stops it wearing thin at the top over it's lifetime.

The bullet is etched with the L'Oreal logo, which looks classy - and drives home the brand name successfully!

The formula is reasonably creamy, and feels nice and smooth. It doesn't hydrate my lips, but does feel nice on. Over a few hours it does dry them a little, so it's better with a balm underneath.

Although the label, and the bullet itself, are a very deep purple, the actual result on lips is more of a dark, pretty, sheer berry shade. You can build it a little. but the colour payoff/impact is not terribly intense. So saying it is a pretty, flattering shade that is great for day/work - and has the added benefit of making teeth look a little whiter.

The scent is vaguely berry, and is okay, but the taste is kind of waxy and not that pleasant if you accidentally lick your lips - but at least that stops you from doing so.

It does transfer, but enough stays on my lips for a pretty sheer berry colour, so that isn't a huge issue.

In short, I'm wearing it, and liking it, but probably wouldn't go back and buy more as there are better lipsticks in this (and cheaper) price ranges for my personal preferences.
