L’Oreal Paris Color Riche Gold Obsession Lipsticks Review

L’Oreal Paris recently launched the #BoldInGold Collection. It has 7 lipsticks from the Star Collection Color Riche range, one eyeshadow palette and two vibrant nail paint colors. Sometimes metallic lips can be slightly loud for subtle day wear but these colors are gorgeous and have a subtle balance to it. Today I am going to review these gold infused lipsticks by L’oreal in detail. Infused with 24 carat precious gold, these L’Oreal Paris Gold Obsession Lipsticks come in 7 different shades which are inspired by the runway trends in Paris – Rouge Gold, Scarlet Gold, Plum Gold, Mocha Gold, Coral Gold, Rose Gold and Le Gold. Read on to know more about these lip colors in detail.

My Review of L’Oreal Gold Obsession Lipsticks:
Packaging – Gold Obsession Lipsticks comes in a gold and black ombre packaging with a shade indicator in the front with the name of the L’Oréal brand ambassadors for individual lip colors. The shade name and number is written at the bottom. The cap has the click lock system and the twist up functionality. Overall, the lipsticks are gorgeously packaged and well designed for travelling.

Shades in details – Every lipstick shade has fine golden shimmer in it but you won’t be able to see them in pictures. The gold shimmer merely gives a touch of glossiness and highlighting effect on the lips. These lipstick will not look metallic at all, except for the shade G101 Le Gold.

Pigmentation – The pigmentation of the loreal gold obsession lipsticks is wonderful. The deeper shades like Mocha Gold, Plum Gold and Scarlet Gold are insanely pigmented and a single swipe deposits rich amount of color to the lips. Shades like Rose Gold, Coral Gold and Rouge Gold are opaque with double layer. The shade Le Gold is best applied with a lip brush as it tends to be slightly uneven due to the rich amount of golden shimmer when applied directly from the tube. All in all, the pigmentation of the gold color riche lip colors is admirable.

Staying power – The staying power of the new loreal gold collection lipsticks is good for a glossy lip color. They stay on my lips for around 3-3.5hrs and leave behind a fresh tint of color to the lips. Also, when the lipstick is completely removed by the end of the day, it leaves behind minute particles of golden shimmer. You can apply a lip liner underneath to make the color long lasting for any special occasion. The pricing is slightly on the heavier side but the lipsticks are totally worth it.

Overall – The L’Oreal Paris Gold Obsession Lipstick collection come in a gorgeous gold-black ombre packaging with beautiful shades of reds, pinks and deeper shades. The texture resembles to a gel-glossy lip product with wet finish. The formula is enriched with jojoba oil which is hydrating and the lipsticks are nice and long wearing.
