Bourjois Sweet Kiss Naturel in 06 Rose Tendre

Do you know the feeling when you want to love something so much, but simply can't? I have that with my Bourjois lipstick, the second I saw it, I thought I was in love with it, such a gorgeous, gentle shade, perfect to accentuate my natural colour. However, once you put it on, the misery starts. If I pay 13 EUR for a lipstick, I expect it to be at least moisturizing, which is not the case here. The lipstick has a matte finish, and I can guarantee you that it dries the lips quite a bit. It sinks into the wrinkles. Oh my oh my. It is only now that I have tried this lipstick, that I fully appreciate all of my Revlon ColorBurst lipsticks and even a cheap Catrice lipstick performs better than this...very disappointing!

  1. It's so sad to be disappointed like that. Some brands focus on the packaging and the marketing so much that they forget about the actual product :(

  3. @ Andreal DLC - so true, the packaging is really cute, shame about it feels on the lips!
    @ Sarah - the colour is indeed amazing, I was instantly attracted to it, but it fails in other aspects...I can still wear it with a lipgloss or over any lip care :-)
