3 of my favorite L'OREAL Infallible Lip Paints!

Hi there, my darlings! If there's one thing that as bloggers we come to know about ourselves, it's our weaknesses. Personally, there are several things I have a soft spot for--floral fragrances, vivid eyeshadow palettes, bold highlighters and most importantly, lippies. In case you hadn't noticed yet (yeah, right!), I'm a self-professed lipstick junkie. But as a lipstick junkie, I know what I gravitate towards, what works for me. Sure, I'll try a shocking hot pink or a luscious coral every now and then but when it comes to tried-and-true loves, it's always the rich berries, plums and reds that I reach for. That's why although I was dying to try the new L’Oréal Infallible Lip Paints, I also knew that only certain shades would work for me and those are exactly the ones I requested to share with you. These three, out of the 14 available, I feel are among the most suited for women of my particular skin tone--take a peek and tell me if you agree!


If you haven't come across the Infallible Lip Paints yet, here's a little excerpt:

High color impact lip paint. Saturated with pigments. Designer applicator.

Lacquer up lips for a bold color statement with L'Oréal Paris Infallible® Paints/Lip. In one stroke, the designer applicator precisely diffuses vibrant, full-coverage color to lips for comfortable wear. Available in 14 high-impact liquid lipstick colors, from nude to bold.

Now, when I came across these on social media, I was immediately taken with how bold, how pigmented the colors looked. And in my mind, I immediately assumed they would be mattes. Because you can really get THAT kind of pigmentation with mattes, right?! WRONG! As I found, much to my disbelief, these are NOT mattes. Yet, they are still incredibly pigmented! What magic is this?

The three I tested were buttery smooth cremes...although cremes don't quite accurately describe them. I really think paints, as they have dubbed them, is the most accurate representation--they have the impact and pigmentation of a good matte but the comfort, hydration and easy wearability of a great creme. It's a fabulous departure from the ordinary, if you're used to wearing mattes all the time, like me.

If there was anything I wasn't thrilled about, it would have to be the applicator, Billed as "designer", they didn't quite do it for me. I found them a little too...feathery, if that makes sense. The tip wasn't as defined, as firm as I like it which made applying evenly to the lipline a challenged. I would definitely recommend using a lipliner and then filled in the color.

Overall though, I LOVE all three of these shades and I really enjoy the feel of these. Shown below, from left to right, Infallible Lip Paints in Bewitching Bordeaux, DIY Red and Sultry Sangria.
