Review; L'Oreal Paris Collection Privee by Cheryl

I went abroad a few weeks ago, and whilst in the airport I was looking for make-up because I am always drawn to duty free. I, being a Cheryl fan, noticed that they had the lipstick shade that she had chose in stock (I hadn't been able to find it anywhere else) and instantly bought it.

The Collection Privee is a collection of 6 nude shades, custom made for 6 L'Oreal Paris spokespersons. Each is a different shade made to suit the skin colour and style of the spokesperson it is for. As I have a similar skin tone to Cheryl, plus being a huge fan of her, I thought it would be perfect, especially since I needed a new nude lipstick (the one I previously used washed me out a bit). Usually priced at around £8.19 (in Boots), I got this for cheaper due to no VAT.

I put the lipstick on instantly, I couldn't wait. When on, it is a very subtle shade, so much so that it doesn't even look like I am wearing lipstick, which is a bit disappointing. A few coats later, it finally looks like there is lipstick on, but is still quite subtle. It doesn't stay on as long as I'd like it too but it lasts a few hours.

Despite the extreme subtleness of the lilpstick, I still love it. I rarely buy L'Oreal lipsticks but every time I do, I am always reminded how amazing they are for my lips. The smell is always appealing on them, they don't taste disgusting so when you lick your lips it doesn't cause you to gag and they are always so nourishing and make my lips so soft for days after I wear it.

Overall, I would recommend this collection but would have to find a better shade than the Cheryl one for my face.
