L'Oreal Colour Riche Balm Review | Guest Post

A warm hello to Anne's followers! I'm Shona from freshbeautyxox and I'm guest blogging for Anne today. I hope you enjoy my post!
I received this product in my Canadian swap and at first look its similar to the Revlon Lip Butter's. To my knowledge unfortunately these aren't available in the UK and I'm not sure as to whether they are in Greece.
This was a product I came across on the walgreens website and it took my fancy, I was very happy to receive it!

L'Oreal Colour Riche Balm swatches

I have the shade Pink Satin which is a gorgeous and simple pink shade, I think its cool toned and has a bit of blue tones running through it. I'm not the best at identifying colours and describing them perfectly though. 

This is quite a sheer product and is definitely a balm. Its very moisturising and feels lovely on lips. It creates a wash of pink on my lips. It doesn't swatch well but it does come out with colour on my lips, it enhances the pink in my lips.

As this is a balm formula it doesn't last well on my lips but its a balm so that's fine. I don't mind reapplying seeing as its moisturising as well. 

This is basic product that I enjoy using when I want a simple look. With a bit of mascara and blush this creates a fresh look. This is basically a tinted moisturiser but its got more pigment in it than some of my other ones, I think the darker shades in this line would offer a stronger colour pay off.

Do you fancy trying these?

Thanks for reading,
Shona x

  4. I much prefer lip balms to lipsticks. Especially in the winter.
    The color is really pretty.
