First Impression- Loreal Glossy Stain


 Happy Hump Day! 

I haven't finished my Christmas reveals, but wanted to do a quick post today on my 
"First Impression" of the newly released Loreal Colour Riche Caresse Aqua Lacquer Lipgloss
Stain. That was a mouthful, huh?! 

So, quick product description: These are a dupe for the expensive YSL glossy stains
that are sold at Sephora for $32. I did a Wednesday Wishes post back in the fall for wanting 
that product, but I never splurged due to the price tag.  
Loreal just released their version of a glossy stain and the concept is just how it reads...
a lip gloss that will stain your lips. 


Here is the packaging of the gloss. It's really nice and somewhat fancy feeling with it being all gold. 



Here is a swatch of the color I chose: 
"Rose On and On" which is a natural and sheer peachy/rose color. 

A great everyday natural shade. 


And here you have it on my lips today! 
I personally really like the shade for a soft natural look being at work and not wanting
anything too terribly flashy. 

Overall thoughts and first impression of product: 
I've used this a total of one whole day and was really impressed despite all the negative
reviews I read. Did my lips look glossy all day long? No. Did I have a stain all day long?
HECK to the YES, people! I applied this gloss yesterday morning around 8am and 
still had a color on my lips last night at 11pm before I got in bed! I don't know about you,
but that is pretty darn impressive in my opinion! 

The overall feel of this product is a little more dry and a tad sticky at times, but nothing
terrible. I felt like throughout the day I still had a little shine that set it apart from just 
a stain. 

I love long lasting products, especially lips! I am not just a chap stick kind of gal, so for
me this product is great just due to the staying and lasting power. I love not having a lip
product rub off after a few conversations at work or drinking a few sips of coffee. 

My overall rating of this gloss after my first impression is:
A-
staying power... excellent
color pigmentation... great
price... great
glossy... ok

What do you think? Would you try this new Loreal glossy stain?
