New In: L'oreal L'Extraordinaire Liquid Lipstick by Color Riche in 101 Rose Melody

After reading such rave reviews on multiple blogs I knew I just had to pick one of these up! So on a recent trip to my local Boots I found myself in front of the L'Oreal stand eyeing up the colour range. I was looking for a muted pink colour, so when I swatched Rose Melody I happily made my way over to the till with it in hand.

The L'Extraordinaire Liquid Lipsticks by Color Riche come in at £8.99 and are being dubbed as the budget equivalent to the Yves Saint Laurent Vernis A Levres Glossy Stains and for less than half the price who can complain? They promise a formulation containing with micro-oils and rich colour pigments to give the ideal balance of colour and care for your lips. For me, I find the product to be ever so slightly sticky on the lips, but not in a bad way. The colour effortlessly glides on thanks to the flat applicator and doesn't cling to any dry patches or feather at all, unlike other liquid lipsticks I've tried, namely the Rimmel Apocalips.

Rose Melody is a muted pink/nude hybrid with micro shimmer particles, I find it to be a 'my lips but better' colour but with something more, I think it's the shimmer that adds a whole new dimension to this particular shade. It's perfect for every day but could also be worn as a nude paired with a heavy smokey eye for an evening.

Thanks for reading.
