What's your all time, signature summer look? Mine's messy hair don't care, sunblock smeared all over, and nude but defined lips. Case point:

Mattes:
Glamour Fuchsia (purple), Orange Power (orange), Lincoln Rose (bright red)
Satin:
Pop Up Pink, Touch of Amaranth
This year, I'm keeping the same look but with a neon twist. I'm adding the L'Oreal Paris Color Riche Electric Lip Collection (Php 499 each) lippies into my FOTDs for that trendy punch. ;)
From the runways of Paris to the latest makeup trends, it’s clear that summer the perfect time to sport bold statement lips. That’s why this season, L’Oreal Makeup Designer/PARIS dares women to take their looks to the next level and go beyond ordinary with its hottest lipstick collection, Color Riche Electric.I received all 5 shades from the range and like Trisha Chua, Group Product Manager of L’Oréal Makeup Designer/PARIS, I think that these bold lip candies are the perfect secret weapon this season making us look fresher, trendier, and more confident in a couple of swipes.
With Color Riche Electric, your makeup transformation begins by simply swiping on one of the five ultra-bold, ultra-trendy, yet easily wearable lipstick shades that can instantly brighten up any look.

No matter how pretty a lippie is though, if it's not comfortable to wear, I can't quite stick with it. That's what surprised me about this range. The satins are gorgeous, moisturizing, and long lasting. Thanks to its nourishing Jojoba and Argan oils, the mattes are nicely gentle on the lips leaving that soft, shine-free finish that stays on after two cups of morning coffee.

Its glide is a totally different story though. Off the lot, I find Glamour Fuschia and Lincoln Rose the best when it comes to mirror-free application. They apply evenly and consistently every time. Touch of Amaranth needs a bit of work for some one with dry lips as it has a demi-flat shine that may accentuate lines and patches. Pop Up Pink and Orange Power will definitely favour women who have lips that are never dry as it has the tendency to run if mixed with a moisturizing balm as base.
Just for kicks, I also took the snap above to show you how these lippies nicely stain the skin (and lips actually) even after removing with water based make-up remover. A win for those who wear lippies all day and night! :)
May 05 EDIT:
Our friends from L'Oreal sent me another set of 5 lippies to giveaway to 1 very lucky, Philippines based blog reader! :) All you have to do is to enter the giveaway via the Rafflecopter mechanics below. Good luck!
I think Orange Power will be a nice color for summer and a nice touch on my soon-to-be tan skin (or so I wish because I never tan, I burn!) while I hang out on the beach with my family.

ReplyDeleteAmong the lippes of the L'Oreal Power Color Riche Electric Lip Collection I think the shade of Orange Power is a color I want to try before Summer ends! Such an exciting color.
ReplyDeleteSo excited of this giveaway:) Can't really wait to your announcement soon. Everyday makes me nervous. Hihi. Im really really hoping & praying to win. I Love lipstick too much. But as of now, I'd rather buy important things for my son. So winning these set would make me the happiest woman alive. Haha. Thank you so much for this chance and thanks also for your advice about on my hair problems:)
ReplyDeleteI would go for Lincoln Rose this summer. I love wearing red and reddish lipsticks because they can freshen up my haggard face in an instant. And since it's summer and is always hot, i feel more comfortable wearing just the basics- eyebrow pencil, powder foundation and a lipstick that could brighten up my face and hide my zombie-looking lips.
ReplyDeleteHi Ms. Phoebe! I believe that summer would definitely be awesome with the Orange Power Shade :) I find it unique and fresh which is so fit on the weather :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck Jeremy! :)
ReplyDeleteI like to try the Pop Up Pink i think this shade rocks! Light and perfect fit for any summer outfit and i can be GoElectric with it.
