Bourjois Rouge Laque

I fell like at the moment all the new releases from the drugstore seem to be matte liquid lips so when I saw that Bourjois were releasing a glossy finish liquid lip I was instantly intrigued. Don't get me wrong I love a good matte lip as much as the next beauty blogger however sometimes they can just be too uncomfortable so I was excited to try something which was a little more hydrating.

 

The Rouge Laque's are essentially a glossy finish liquid lipstick which leave behind a really nicely even stain once the glossiness has worn away. Thy do feel very comfortable on the lips however are a litte sticky so are probably not the best for windy hair down days. This slightly sticky feel does however make them feel moveable and therefore more comfortable on the lips. In terms of lasting power I would say that I get a good 4 hours out of the gloss and then another couple out of the stain which is left behind. I really like the packaging as it is nice and compact much like the rouge edition velvets. I also really like the fact it is obvious what colour you are using which in a makeup collection as big as mine is important.

The colour range is 8 shades which include pinky nudes up to a dark red which is one of the shades I don't have. I have to say I do think this range could include more nudes however I have come to expect this of Bourjois as they seem to bring out a product then expand the nude shades further. The only issue I have with these is the smell and taste of them. They smell slightly like synthetic fruit with a splash of chemicals. But when it comes to the taste it is definitely something I have to try and ignore they taste very chemically on initial application however this does go away after only a couple of seconds. I think if you can get past the smell then these are a really lovely product and are well worth trying out.
