When Revlon launched a range of lip butters the blogging world seemed to go into a frenzy. However whilst all this was going on L'oreal slyly released their Caresse range, a collection of 10 stunning colours promising a weightless finish without compromising on the color payoff. A few weeks a go I stumbled across these in Superdrug and decided to get one to see what all the fuss was about. I know Cheeky Magenta is a bloggers fave but it was a little too daring for me so I opted for 'Lovely Rose' a nude pink shade perfect for day to day wear. Verging between a matte and gloss finish these leave a natural sheen of color across the lips which can be built up by layering for intensity. I usually swish one coat over my lips and then pat in with my finger for a more matte look. Moisturising and pigmented these are lovely to wear my only gripe would be is that they don't last. I am talking 1 hour tops without drinking or eating as such. When you are a 2 cups of coffee in the first hour at work girl (aka me) its a little annoying but as I opted for a lighter shade I can pretty much re-apply without the aid of a mirror but if you are looking for something with slightly more longevity then this range isn't perhaps your best choice. Have you tried any from this range yet?
The L'Oreal Rouge Caresse range are available at Boots/Superdrug for £7.99 each. The last time I checked Superdrug were doing a 3 for 2 offer on all cosmetics and these were included!
