Offers at Boots are always amazing, but when I saw this one I had to get my hands on it! If you spend £15 on any L'Oreal products at the moment you get a free gift with your purchase. I have been looking for a very good everyday lipstick for a while and I had seen the adverts on TV for the L'Oreal Caresse Lipstick and then remembered seeing the free gift offer so I went to Boots and got myself two of the lipsticks which in total cost me £15.98.
Cheeky Magenta
Top Swatch: Cheeky Magenta. Bottom Swatch: Dating Coral
The lipsticks that I purchased are very pigmented and I LOVE them, they don't dry out your lips which is a problem with many lipsticks. The shade cheeky magenta looks like it would be a very bright pink colour but when applied to your lips it looks very natural, I really like this colour. For the 'Dating Coral' shade I use a lip brush to apply it as with my completion it can look a little dark, a lip brush helps to fade the colour slightly.
Free Gift: L'Oreal Superliner Luminizer Eyeliner in 'Brown Eyes', L'Oreal Paris Glam Shine 6HR Lip Gloss in 'Magnetic Nude Glow', 2 L'Oreal Colour Rich Nail Varnishes in '617 You Are Worth It' and '211 Opulent Pink', samples and nail stickers.
This lip gloss is a good high quality gloss. It's a great nude colour for applying on top of lipstick for a slight shine, it doesn't last for very long but you would expect that with many lip glosses.
One of the reasons I bought the lipsticks is so I could test these Colour Riche nail varnishes as they came in the free gift. One feature I like about the nail varnish is the brush, it is exactly the right shape to cover all of my nail, also even after one coat the colour is very rich and thick. However, after one day of wearing the varnish it had chipped. I am very disappointing with it as I was really excited about this product. I applied two coats of the nail varnish, went to bed and got in the bath after I woke up and this was the state of my nails:
The final product I'll review is the superliner luminizing eyeliner.. Once you have got your head around the name this is a very good liquid eyeliner, it lasts for a long time. One problem for me is I have blue eyes so I can't really review how 'luminizing' it is as it isn't designed for my eyes. It does have small pieces of 'glitter' in which you can't see unless you are in certain lights, but I suspect are there to luminize brown eyes, you can see this in the swatch on the bottom picture.
