L'OREAL Paris Color Riche Collection Privee'

Hi Angels,

So I was in my neighborhood Harmon the other day.  (Love that store.  Remember you can use your Bed Bath and Beyond Coupons there).  I happened upon a small display.  It is from L'OREAL.  The name of the collection is the L'OREAL Paris Color Riche Privee'. Just the look of the casing had me intrigued. Here is a pic below courtesy of L'OREAL Paris:


The collection boasts nude lipsticks and nail polishes specially made for models and famous faces. Some of the models include Doutzen Kroes, Eva Longoria, Freida Pinto and Liya Kibede.  There was a small short made that includes all of the models.  The UK and Canada received different lipstick and nail polishes.

Here is a picture courtesy of L'OREAL.com of Liya Kibede's lipstick and nail polish:
This is the one I purchased.  It is a purple brown duo chrome.  Not altogether nude but beautiful nonetheless.  Below is a pic if my nail polish and lipstick.

Isn't it even richer looking than their original packaging.  If you've read my reviews before you'll know that one of my biggest gripes about L'OREAL lipsticks are the smell. It is a fruity vanilla smell that interferes with my enjoying the color. Someone must have heard my cry because this lipstick doesn't have it. I just might back it up and put it in my bag for my five minute face.  You can purchase the different colors at your neighborhood Walgreens, CVS, Rite Aid and Target

So what do we think Angels?  Have you seen this collection in stores?  Did you or are you going to buy anything?  Let us know what you think.  

Until next time Angels

Kardashian Khroma Collection Review

Hello Angels,
I am back with another post. Now if you are like most lipsticknistas,you were hunting along with the rest of us for the lipsticks the Kardashian girls were wearing on the season finale. After looking everywhere for the illusive white tube I stumbled upon the collection at my neighborhood CVS. I then googled the collection and found the color Khloe was wearing. The lipsticks are the Khroma Joystick lip lacquer. The color is Shocking Pink. I picked it up along with two others.

The Kardashian girls are makeupnistas so I was prepared to take no prisoners. I have to say for the eight dollar price they are quite good. It is not a drying formula and the color is true to the tube. I did expect Shocking Pink to be darker but it was nothing MAC Currant lip pencil couldn't fix. I would have loved it if the finish was matte. I would compare them to MAC's amplified finish. It is not the longest lasting lacquer and needed to be reapplied after a few hours.

All in all I have to say these lipsticks are great for beginners especially due to the pencil shape. They are also great for the collectors/ Mommy on the go like myself.
So check them out when you get a chance at your neighborhood CVS and Harmon. Until next time Angels......
