L’Oreal La Lacquer Lip Colour Pencil Review & Swatches
L’Oreal La Lacquer Shiny Full Coverage Lip Colour Pencils are back for Fall 2015! You might recall that L’Oreal La Lacquer Lip Colour Sticks launched for Fall 2013 as a limited edition collection but more recently they have become available in five permanent shade selections for Fall 2015.
Let’s take a look!
L’Oreal La Lacquer Lip Colour Sticks are available in two finishes (you might recall I reviewed the La Matte Sticks earlier today!) one of which is a matte finish and the other provides a shiny or “lacquer”-like finish.
I’m quite pleased these are back as I enjoyed the originals and love the new ones just as much. These are a swivel up lip pencil with an oval shaped tip for application. It’s a funny thing but they have a light vanilla fragrance and flavor compared to the Le Matte formula which sported the rose-y perfume fragrance and flavor of L’Oreal Color Riche Lipstick range. Weird right? Why two different flavors? Hmm! None the less I enjoyed the vanilla a lot more than the perfume-y taste of the Le Matte Sticks!

La Lacquer can be a little deceiving as I don’t get a ton of glossiness from these pencils but they do have a subtle shine which was great as no additional gloss was needed to give the appearance of glossiness. The pigment is gorgeous on these shades and the formula is lightweight with a little hint of stickiness that allows the color to wear a nice four to five hours. I find they tug a little tiny bit during application but still provide a very smooth, even finish on my lips that doesn’t accentuate dryness. I wouldn’t call them hydrating but they aren’t drying either. Color remains strong during the wear and doesn’t migrate around my lips.

I enjoyed them when they originally released and think the formula is still just as good.
Well worth a pick up if you’re a lip pencil kinda girl! Excellent color, easy to carry with you for touch ups, and long wearing!
