Hey guys! So, I finally caved and tried one of those L'Oréal lipsticks everyone's been raving about, and I have thoughts. You know how I'm always on the hunt for the perfect everyday lipstick – something that's not too drying, has decent staying power, and doesn't break the bank? Well, L'Oréal has a ton of different lines, so it was a bit overwhelming trying to choose. I ended up going for the Colour Riche line, mostly because they had a shade that looked exactly like my favorite discontinued one.
First impressions? The packaging is…well, it's L'Oréal. Not super fancy, but it doesn't feel cheap either. It's that classic gold tube, you know the one. But honestly, who cares about the packaging if the product inside is good, right?
The color I picked up is called "Nude Ambition" (or something like that – honestly, the names are a bit much sometimes!). It's this gorgeous, slightly pinky-nude that's perfect for my skin tone. They have a massive shade range though, like seriously, there's something for everyone. From your classic reds to crazy purples, they've got it all.
Application was super smooth. It glides on really easily, and it's surprisingly pigmented. One swipe is pretty much all you need for full coverage. It has a slightly creamy texture, which I really like, because my lips tend to get dry. It doesn't feel heavy or sticky, which is a huge plus.
