L'Oreal x Love Marie Collection Review


Heart Evangelista collaborated with L'Oreal for an exclusive lipstick collaboration called "L'Oreal x Love  Marie".  This collection is inspired by women who are in different stages of their lives.  According to Heart: "This represents not just me, but different kinds of women - somebody who is very strong, someone who is very shy, someone who is finding herself - so it represents different kinds of women that people can relate to".

There are a total of 5 lipstick shades personally picked by the actress under the Color Riche Line and here's an overview of all 5 of them worn by yours truly!

I love to do a collage on different shades of lipsticks coming from different brands just to show you the different effects each color gives!  Mind you, I have the same hairstyle, hair color, makeup, camera setting and I try my best to do the same smile on all photos but I look someone different on each because of how a different shade of lips can change the overall appearance and mood of the subject!

Before I start talking about each shade that Heart picked, this BOX that includes all 5 #LorealLoveMarie collection can be purchased (at a limited time) priced at Php1,995.00.

And once you open the box, you get these 5 lipsticks with different women painted by Heart herself.  These are not directly painted on lipstick tubes by the way and these are stickers on existing L'Oreal Color Riche shades which I don't mind because they were done seamlessly.

You can purchase these by singles as well if you have specific shades you want for the price of  Php399.00.  NOT bad considering the normal SRP of Color Riche Lipsticks are priced at Php349.00 and you just add a bit and get these beautifully designed lipstick bullets.

Swatch on all 5 shades

AMW wears Brick Planet
Brick Planet is a medium brown shade that works so well on all Filipinas.  This could be an MLBB shade for those with dark lip pigmentation and appear to be medium to darker brown on those with light lip colors!  I love how this made me look very relaxed and carefree.

AMW wears Rouge-A-Porter
This shade is an instant pick-me-upper because of the presence of coral hue.  Coral makes your skin appears warmer, healthier and your overall outlook to be brighter.  I look instantly fresh with this lipcolor and this will be the shade I pick for retouch in between traffic or meetings.

AMW wears Spring Rosette
I used to love pink lipsticks a lot and for some reason, as I get older or maybe as my skintone changes through the years, I felt a cool tone lip color may not flatter me.  But for some reason, this lip color washes off the rest of my makeup "subtly" focusing the eye of the person directly on my lips and cheeks!  And look how my blush appears pink as well eventhough I did not change my blush shade!

I would probably pick this color if I wanted to appear youthful!

AMW wears Hinted Blush
My favorite shade from the collection.  Why?  Because it has a pinkish brown hue to it making it a perfect shade for girls OF ALL AGES!  I mean a teenager can wear this and a mom can wear this too without looking too "trying hard to look young".  The effect of this lip color is soft on the features of anyone wearing this thus making this a versatile color.

AMW wears Pure Rouge
Though not a fan of red lipsticks nowadays, I'm glad Heart included a TRUE red lip color because a collection won't be complete without one!  I am glad she picked this blue based undertone red lipstick because it can whiten the teeth without looking like you have HUGE lips!  This lipstick does not have that orange red undertone so it doesn't make me look like a squash!  Yes, I will totally pick this up for a night out!  Or when I need to attend a meeting wherein I need to stand firm on something!
We Go GIRL!

All 5 shades earn thumbs up from me, they are well-picked by Heart and I will not judge her taste because this girl definitely has great taste in makeup and fashion!

Now let's talk the lipstick itself, they are all creamy , pigmented and appears opaque in a single application!  They are definitely worth to purchase as they last for 4 hours at least with eating and drinking before reapplication.

Which among the 5 shades do you like the most?

Keep smilin'
Stay happy!
