L'Oreal Paris Cannes 2015 - Glamorous Gloss vs Marvelous Matte

L'Oreal Paris Cannes 2015 - Glamorous Gloss vs Marvelous Matte

L'Oréal Paris has been associated with the Festival de Cannes and each year around the time of the festival they come out with a new range of products. This year there was a lot of excitement around the festival because we have 3 brand ambassadors from India - each of them a beauty to reckon with - Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Sonam Kapoor & Katrina Kaif. All three of them have been appearing in different looks for the red carpet. While Aishwarya stunned everyone with her  appearance in an emerald green sheer Elie Saab, Sonam looked like a Disney princess in her Ralph & Russo blue gown. Katrina Kaif also made a lot of heads turn with her all red appearance in an Eli Saab outfit.

This year the highlight of the new L'Oréal Paris collection was around creating two distinct looks for the lips - Glamorous Gloss vs Marvelous Matte.

In line with these two themes L'Oreal has launched the #YouCannes collection comprising of Colour Riche Swarovski Moist Mat Lipstick, L'Oréal L'Extraordinaire Liquid Lipstick by Color Riche & Super Liner Gel Intenza.

I will be sharing reviews and swatches of 3 products from the collection but today this post is all about the two looks I created - one is for a day time Glamorous Gloss look while the other is a night time Marvelous Matte look.

What I think about the range!

L'oreal Color Riche - Raspberries - Review

I already reviewed a lipstick from the L’oreal Color Riche range - Blushing Berry. You can check the review here - L'oreal Color Riche - Blushing Berry - Review


As you all know I really like the fact that this lipstick range is really smooth.

It's soft golden beige packaging along with the L’oreal engraved on the lipstick itself. I find these lipsticks very classy.

L'oreal Color Riche - Raspberries

Today I am reviewing the shade 231 - Raspberries. 
This is a lovely deep mehroon shade - deep yet soft - not an over the top dark shade. This one has better staying power than Blushing Berry - I think mainly due to the darker shade. The shade is apt for Indian weddings or night parties. It makes the face appear brighter and would draw attention to the more glamorous you!

Above is a pic with the swatches - right most swipe is a single swipe and as you can see a single swipe itself look ravishing. The left swatch is a double swipe - the true deep colour!
