L’Oreal Color Presso Lip Gloss Review

Anyone who is following me on Twitter may have peeped my rave about the new L’Oreal Color Presso Lip Gloss. They are, in a word, versatile. In each package there are two shades of lip gloss designed to complement each other fabulously once applied to your lips. True versatility lies in the fact that there are literally endless combinations of the two shades in each Color Presso gloss, depending on how much of each color you decide to apply to the lips.

The formula and staying power are nothing spectacular – you’ll need to apply about every hour to keep the color and gloss factor alive. Factor in another reapplication after you eat or after you kiss your boyfriend. However, I find the application of the Color Presso gloss to be easy… It is a squeeze tube with a pad which shape fits to the curve of your lips. Squeeze gently, apply, then spread across your lips. Also, the shades are fairly pigmented – though sheer – with a touch of fine shimmer for gloss factor. I own both Swanky (gold, pink) and Trendy (light pink, mauve).

At $13 a pop, L’Oreal Color Presso gloss is a drugstore hit.
