The eye-catching gold packaging of the L’Oreal Paris Shine Caresse is very beautiful and makes you look forward to a great product. This is a lip gloss and lip stain in one and this is probably the reason for the tear-drop shaped spongy applicator.
It gathers a good amount of product on it and the colour is very vibrant on the applicator. When I first applied it, I was expecting the heavy and thick sticky feel of normal lip glosses. But instead, it felt literally like I was applying water on to my lip. I was very surprised because the product looks thick, but feels very very ‘liquidy’.
I then applied on both the top and lower lips. On first application, the colour did not look like it had been transferred successfully onto my lips. But, the stick feeling of normal lip glosses came after a few seconds of application.
I was not satisfied with the deepness of the colour on my lips, so applied more of the Shine Caresse. Still, a bit of the colour was visible. But a few minutes later, I realised the colour was becoming deeper on my lips. After a few minutes, the true vibrancy of the colour became visible.
The colour and shine lasted for a couple of hours, but after lunch, the shine was gone, but the stain of the colour was still visible.
The L’Oreal Paris Shine Caresse lip stain/gloss is a great product for anyone looking for a true long-wear lip colour. It is quick to apply and does not require the dual lip stain + gloss applicators that other brands have.
