Review: L’Oreal Colour Riche Lipstick

Karin — Sat, 19 Mar 2011 22:07:01 +0000

It's been a long time since I've worn a L'Oreal lipstick. Colour Riche have a very nice, moisturizing feel and are long lasting. Of course, L'Oreal is a French line, so we should expect them to be good. BTW, L'Oreal owns Lancome, among others, some of which are quite expensive.

Color 203
This is a very pretty color.

620
Applied softly:

Applied strongly:

And rimmed, using Beauté Technique
Rimmed with Lancome Siren and Bonnie Bell Lip Shox Fuchsia Flash gloss
Go here to see the technique in detail. When using a deeper toned lipstick, it works better rimming with a deeper toned glitter gloss. It really makes a difference!

Organza 863 Made for Me Natural Lip Color $8.99
This is an especially pretty neutral. In RL it is quite glimmery, with a pink hue laid over the neutral-brown. It is almost a very light, soft red.

630 Sea Fleur
First alone:
This is a really beautiful, dimensional fuchsia. I recommend it!

Now with the Beauté Technique
Rimmed with Bonnie Bell Lip Shox Fuchsia Flash gloss

And another view:

I will add to this, if I wear more.

FOTD Chanel Eyes

Karin — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 14:21:54 +0000

I'm still not tired of Pink and Grey, so today I thought I'd use some Chanel colors.

Eyes:
Base: Beauticontrol pink; then my sparkly mix
Lid: Chanel Pink pink from Lotus Cactus duo (had gorgeous green too)
Crease: Chanel Starlight applied before outer corners to soften
Outer corners: Chanel Silvery applied second so Starlight would blend it naturally.
Brows: La Prairie pencil

Lined upper: Chanel Malachite from duo pencil, more glam in looks than yesterday's Clinique.
Lined lower: MAC graphblack in waterline, then earthline outside it
Lined just outside the lower Jane 24 It's a girl light pink
Lined top and bottom AL evilwoman rocks! glam glitter
Mascara top: Lancome Oscillation Black
Mascara lower: Stiletto Love this long spiky look.

Primer: Sheer Cover
Foundation: Estee Lauder Minute Makeup Buff Discontinued
If I'd thought of it, I would have done Chanel foundation too!
Highlight: Estee Lauder Minute Opal Discontinued also
Concealer: YSL Touch Eclat 1
Color under my sparkly powder mix: I forgot!
Blush over the powder: Meow Masterpiece Water Lilies -- I really like this!

Lips: L'Oreal 620 not rimmed yet...

And here I have rimmed my lips using Beau Nelson of Beauté's technique.

Using Beau Nelson of Beauté's technique highlighting my lips
L'Oreal 620, rimmed with Lancome Siren, then Bonnie Bell Lipshox Fuchsia Flash I wanted this to be more subtle than with very light gloss.
You can read about this technique here.

Don't you just love the lips with this technique!
I hope you try it!

How do you like this look?

Have a great day!
