THE LOREAL GLAM MATTE

Loreal-Glam-Matte-Review

When I saw the Loreal Glam Matte a few weeks ago, I thought that this is another liquid lipstick and the market is overflowing with it already. However, Loreal claims that Glam Matte both gives a matte and shiny finish. I just couldn't get the idea as matte and shiny are on opposite ends of each spectrum. Obviously, that rouses my curiosity and me being me, I need to pick some up to satisfy my inquisitive mind.

The Loreal Glam Matte has four shades in its range. I picked up Cherry Crop and Coral Denimista. Cherry Crop is bold red shade and Coral Denimista is more of a peach-y, pink-y sweet shade. The packaging is nothing really to be excited about but it is pretty enough. |The packaging make it looks like a lipgloss. It has a heart shape applicator which is really unique and I really love it. The pointed end of the applicator helps to precisely apply the lipstick within your lips and the wide base helps in coating a large area. It is actually a brilliant idea. Now on application, the Glam Mattes are really light to wear and are really opaque as it has a very creamy formulation. It gives a velvet-y finish and stays well on your lips. It stays for more than four hours before its started to fade. It stays a bit lesser when you eat. It doesn't drastically fade so it still leaves a nice tint to the lips. It leaves a smooth finish and doesn't turn patchy. I don't find it drying as well on the lips despite the velvet finish.

Overall, the Loreal Glam Matte doesn't really have a groundbreaking formulation but it is a good liquid lipstick worth buying. The shades, formula, and price are spot-on. Till' next time :)

    1. I think there really is no matte-gloss concept and it is just gimick tbh. The finish is velvet and it is really nice. Xx

  3. Wow these sound really different, I'll definitely be giving them a try. The Revlon matte and glossy balms are my current favourites, I can't get enough of the minty scent!

  7. They look really lovely! And from your description something that doesn't need to be reapplied every five minutes - something I really hate in a liquid lipstick :) I haven't seen them on the shelves in Germany yet but I'll be on the look out next time I'm strolling the isles of L'Oréal!

  8. Overall I think they seem pretty, but the formula doesn't really seem like it'd be my thing. I think you've probaby just saved me money trying them. Great post, thanks! :) Jemma x

    1. I bought it a few weeks back and it actually doesn't look like one of their new arrivals. I was even surprise when I learnt it's one of Loreal's new releases. Xx
