L'Oreal Color Riche Lipsticks Review

     Hi loves! I'm finally blogging again! Today's post is all about the new L'Oreal Color Riche Lipsticks. There are two categories of these lipsticks, Le Matte and Le Laque. As you can probably already guess, Le Matte is the matte one and Le Laque is the glossy one. I only picked up three colors, one from matte and two from gloss, because those were the only ones available at my local drugstore. I picked them up from Bed, Bath & Beyond and I haven't seen them at any other drugstore yet! I want more; especially from the matte collection!



     Let's start with the only matte one I bought and it is called "No Matte-r What." I really had high hopes for this one and I was very disappointed. I was expecting it to be the perfect nude for us tanned skin girls. However, this one had a brown undertone and really doesn't look flattering. It also goes on very patchy and does not feel matte at all. They only positive for me is that it is not drying. I guess I have to try out a couple more from the matte collection before I completely start hating on them. Here is a swatch on my lips:-
Sorry for the blurriness!
 
     The next two are from the Le Laque collection and I have to say that these are my favorites! These are immensely pigmented and glossy. Unlike the matte formula, these are not patchy at all. The only downsides for me are that they are a little sticky, they do feel heavy on my lips and they transfer. I personally don't like wearing bright lipsticks unless they are matte because they kiss off. That might be the only reason I won't reach for them very often.
 
     The first swatch is of the pink lipstick called "Laquer-ized." This color is a glossy version of MACs Candy Yum Yum. It is a neon pink with purple undertones. This was the most difficult to photograph because it looked more purple than pink but I did my best!

     The last color is probably my new favorite red and it's called "Laque-onic." The formula is not only amazing but the color is so very flattering. It usually takes me some time to get used to red but as soon as I applied this one, I felt beautiful. It is a blue based red so not only does it make your teeth look white, it also makes your skin looks brighter. I am absolutely in love!

Wet n' Wild Love!

     Hi lovies! I am back in the blogging world again! A lot of things have been going on in my life and I finally have some time to put into this blog. So let's get down to business!!
 
     Today I wanted to share my love for Wet n' Wild cosmetics with you! I am sure you all know about this brand and if you don't then you must be living under a rock! Youtube gurus rave about every single product from this brand and I am a huge fan as well! However, this post will focus on their lipsticks, specifically their Mega Last Lipsticks. Let me first list the pros and cons for you:-
 
              Pros                                                                            Cons
- Price:- $2.99- $3.99                                      - Packaging gets dirty very easily                                     
- Extremely Pigmented                                   - Lipstick breaks off at the stem
- Matte but not drying at all

These are all of the ones I have collected so far and I love each and every one of them!
 
These are the swatches of all the lippies from the pic above.
L to R:- 918 Cherry Bomb, 914C Mocha-licious, 906D Wine Room, 965 Cherry Picking, 905D Smokin' Hot Pink, 910D Red Velvet, 966 Don't Blink Pink, 968 Pinkerbell, 902C Bare it All, 901B Think Pink.
 
There is one lipstick I left out of these swatches and that is 907C Mauve Outta Here. This is my favorite lipstick out of all the ones I own from this brand. It is such a pretty color and is very close to the color of my natural lips.  Here is the swatch for you!
 
 
The next couple of lipsticks are going to be from the Fergie Collection. I believe Fergie is the new Brand Ambassador. She came out with a new limited edition collection a few months ago and I scooped up a couple of lipsticks. The formula is the same as the Mega Last ones but the packaging is different.
 

From L to R:- Ferguson Crest Cabernet, Fergie Daily, Bebot Love.
 
My favorite is Ferguson Crest Cabernet. I have heard that its a dupe for MAC Rebel. I don't own it but I have seen swatches online and it seems pretty damn close!
 
I can't wait to try more of their products. I hope this post was helpful for you guys. Stay tuned for my next post and always stay beautiful inside and out! xoxoxo
