Review: L'Oreal Lip Caresse Sheer lipsticks


It seems like ages since I've blogged about a beauty item. But this lipstick has been well loved for a while now. With all the hype (well deserved) around the Revlon Lip Butters I wasn't interested when L'Oreal released their Caresse Sheer lipsticks. Just wondering through Superdrug one day I thought I would go and have a swatch. I picked up this one in Fashionista pink. It is a very sheer baby pink. What made me buy it though, was the texture. I have no other lip product which feels like this one. As it is sheer it is the perfect moisturising lip balm with a prettiest hint of colour. Compared to the Revlon lip butters these feel so much lighter on the lips and surprisingly stay on pretty well. Obviously it isn't going to stay on your lips all day, but I was surprised how long it does stay on. As it wears off your lips it loosed the sheen and leaves you with the tint of the colour. I really like it for a alternative to lip glosses which just irritate me.
Another thing I love with this lipstick is the packaging. It gives a very YSL Rouge Volupte kind of feel to it. The lipsticks retail for £7.99 and are often on 3 for 2. I think I am going to have a look at the other shades next time I go shopping.

  1. The colour of this looks so gorgeous and girly!! Will definitely check this out next time I am out shopping. I hate wearing lip glosses, I tried the lip stains but it just felt so dry on my lips that I gave up!! I stick with my vaseline pot or Elizabeth Arden clear lipstick for now, but this sounds like it is worthy of a try :) x
