L'Oreal Color Riche Lipstick Review

I own this lipstick in the shades Glided pink and Make me blush and these two lip colours are my everyday, work lipstick shades. Glided pink is actually more of beige nude than pink but I love it none the less and Make me blush is a rich coral/brick red shade which is equally beautiful.

In my job its not appropriate to visit clients with bright bold lips so these lipstick are just the perfect, no make up make up or make up with a hint of colour that I need to complete my entire make up look that is always natural.

The formula is creamy and silky and the shades I own have the slightest touch of shimmer which I quite enjoy as it really lifts a nude flat colour and makes it almost glossy. I apply this lipstick first thing in the morning and it carries itself well until about lunch time and then its time for a touch up. I would say the lasting power is about 3-4 hours if you're me making your way through 2 coffees and a muffin before lunch :)

These lipstick are opaque in shade and have lasted me a good 5 months and I've only used about quarter of the lipstick. You only need one swipe and your lips are pigmented with whichever shade you desire.

I must admit I never reach for these lipsticks over the weekend or a night for dinner because the shades are definitely not bold and fun but they do the job for me during the week.

The most important factor to me when it comes to a lipstick is that it mustnt be drying because I already have naturally dry lips. This lipstick is moisturising and its soft and creamy as it sweeps across your lips which I love.

I really love these lipstick and I think they will be my go to shades for work for a long time to come.

I used to be obsessed with fuchsia coloured lipsticks when I bought this. It really was intense like it says it is but I couldn't get past how much it dried up my lips! I would end up licking my lips to keep them hydrated. The colour really stuck to my lip and wouldn't even come off with the best makeup remover wipes I had because it was so dry. It was like baked on. The amazing colour wasn't worth dry lips, i guess I could put lip balm or lip gloss on top but I really shouldn't have to. I wouldn't and haven't recommended this to anyone.

I love this lipstick. The colour lasts so long and it surprisingly hard to smudge, even when eating and drinking so good. It does need to be applied after a lip liner because it does bleed a bit.

I do find it dries out my lips a bit but I just apply a clear lip balm throughout the day to keep them moisterised.

I absolutely adore this lipstick. The colour is so intense (haha so thats doing what it says it will). It applies really well and lasts a good amount of time. This colour is just so amazing

I haven't mastered the art of lip liner and so I apply this lipstick without one, it stays pretty well, no slipping and sliding everywhere as you drink, eat and talk, I do notice some slight feathering but this is easily managed by getting a tissue and carefully wiping.

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.

On the packaging it says Intense. Yup. It's intense. But not in a good way. This colour is literally sparkly red. Like Dorothy's shoes in the Wizard of Oz. It is the least flattering colour I have ever tried. Plus, it doesn't last for very long, dries out my lips like crazy and is really patchy from the time you apply it.

I have the deep red & I love it. Colour stays but need to use the lip liner so it doesn't bleed, but keeps lips feeling smooth & moist throughout the day. Have to reapply once or twice during the day

I go one of these on sale at kmart, and I am glad I did! The colour is so vibrant, and lasts and lasts! Does not smudge or fade, even when eating I have no need to reapply :) And they are so easy to apply! Will definitely be looking out for more :)

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

I have two shades in this series, Rose Agate, which is a pink/nude sparkly colour, and Burning Sunset, which is sparkly but much more red. I have found these lipsticks smooth to apply and the colour is beautiful, but they don't seem to last too long and need reapplying a few times a day to re-enhance the original shine! The base pigment does seem to hold though, so I found after using the sunset one that my lips were still much redder than normal, just not shiny after a few hours. The rose agate is my go to lippy of the moment though as I love the natural colour and sparkles!
