Understated drugstore product: Bourjois so delicate lip cream



Bourjois is a brand I discovered in my early teens but never really looked a lot into, and while the brand has changed a lot since then, it still has some really cute products like the little round pot eyeshadows and blushes which I find really cute and appealing while offering good pigmentation. However Bourjois really stood out to me when I was looking for a cheap, but good, foundation. I then discovered Healthy Mix foundation which is a beautiful lightweight foundation which I wouldn't hesitate in buying again if looking for a foundation which is not too expensive but still get a really good product. There was an offer at Boots for 3 for 2 off selected make up, and so also bought some nail polish and the aforementioned lip cream.

The lip cream is a lipstick, but it's marketed as a lipstick with the application of a lipgloss. It is a matte finish and the colour I have is rose powdre, a light-mid pink which is really opaque on the lips, and very very creamy. It does not come with the dryness of matte, and while promising 8hours of moisturiser, I'm not sure if it's that much but it does keep them hydrated and doesn't dry them out whatsoever. Like every lip product, apply a balm first then this. It comes in a rang of colours and the next one I'm interested in picking up is the dark red one <3 (and i'm normally a wuss at dark coloured lipsticks!)

we don't have that brand here in the u.s., but i like the lipsticks that have the wand for application. for some reason, i feel less like i'm wearing make-up and more like i'm just wearing lipgloss!

also, i think it's funny that you guys in the u.k. call them "pots" because we don't even have a name for them! your names for things are so much better than ours!

that looks so nice to wear! i love matte finishes for lips. recently was gifted a loreal long-lasting lipstick with gloss and it's a little too shiny for me. but thanks for showing this product, it seems fantastic.
