L’Oreal Cinnamon Spiced Colour Riche Le Gloss Review & Swatches

L’Oreal introduced a few limited edition shades of their Colour Riche Le Gloss with their new New York Nudes Collection. Cinnamon Spiced is a shade I’ve been searching for high and low. Actually, if I’m honest, I’m just been searching, searching, and searching some more for any display of the New York Nudes Collection that wasn’t stripped completely bare.

Sadness…! I’ve been unable to find any of the Le Gloss shades, just seems like everywhere I go the displays are empty. I was lucky enough to locate Cinnamon Spiced though on a recent trip to Harmons.

Here are my thoughts.

I love the Le Gloss formula not only because it’s a color rich lipgloss with an opaque formula. But also because I find it has a plush, smooth finish that wraps lips up in a nicely hydrating gloss that’s lightweight without being tacky or sticky.

The glosses almost always produce incredible color pay off and give lips such a sophisticated finish without being overly glitter or shimmery!

Cinnamon Spiced is shade of dark cinnamon copper with flecks of gold. The color reminds me of pumpkin spice lattes and autumn leaves! It’s a little dark at first application but easily sheers out leaving behind this delightfully warm shade of sugar and spice and all things nice.

Do haul it if you can find it particularly if you like subtly shimmering shades of cinnamon!

It’s perfection with a gold, brown, or nude, natural eye look!

Muse Approved!

Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse.

    Love these glosses, I just got one in Really Rose (I prefer no-shimmer ones) and found it to be wonderfulll. And the lady at the checkout said “Oh, these are my favorite glosses, they’re really good.” Always nice to get affirmation at the checkout line =D

    I seriously need to stop thinking something must cost 20$ to be a great product….. This looks lovely… How much was it?

    • the Muse

      6.79 I believe Summer but depends on where you purchase, sometimes $7.99-$8.99 at stores like CVS/walgreens 🙂
