L'Oreal L'Extraordinaire by Color Riche

I almost always opt for a matte lip but lately I've been swaying towards more of a glossy look.. and that's all down to L'Oreals new L'Extraordinaire Liquid Lipstick



It claims to have the colour intensity of a lipstick, shine of a gloss and softness of a balm - a statement that for once I can wholeheartedly agree with. It feels quite thick on application but that feeling soon goes away and you're left with a super glossy and opaque lip colour. 101 'Rose Melody' is the perfect day time shade (I think it'd look wicked with a dark smokey eye for the evening too!); a rosy pink that's neither nude or bold, it just sites nicely in the middle.

It's completely changed my outlook on glossy lip products and it hasn't left my make up bag since I bought it! I've got my eye on 401 'Fuschia Drama' next - I swatched it in the store and the pigmentation was crazy good! Now that I've made my verdict on the formula I will definitely be picking it up..

  1. Ooo...so pretty. I'm kicking myself because I've spent so much recently I can't justify buying anything new from the drugstore! That shade is a lovely coral!
