Product Review : L'Oréal Glam Shine 6H Gloss in #51 Golden Sunset

Okay in case you're wondering why reviews are mostly lip products nowadays, it's because I've sprouted a monstrous zit that is too scary to show anyone!!!

Which brings me to today's review, the L'Oréal Glam Shine 6H Gloss in #51 Golden Sunset!


Please pardon the clutter at the back!


Long lasting gloss, 6 hours. Does it live up to its claim? We'll find out!


I like the cap of this product for my personal weird reasons. Also, let's now take a closer look at the applicator~


I'm not sure of the official name for such applicators but I will describe it as a slanted heart shape fuzzy applicator? Personally I like this applicator too! It's really easy to use and is precise, even when applying on the edges of my lips.


Like I've said, slanted.


Here's a swatch and you can tell that it's a peachy color but truly it's more peachy bronze because of the golden shimmers. The gold shimmers are not being captured by my camera because they're reflecting light, making them look like silver shimmers.


L - Without / R - With

Here's my ugly lopsided lips. Very peachy bronze color and most definitely goes on 95% opaque.Very smooth texture and does not emphasize my lip lines! Might show on chapped lips though. However, I feel like this is one of those stay on gloss? Remember the Mac longwear gloss and the Maybelline one(Not in SG)? This feels exactly like it but more comfortable. It still dries down to feeling like a plastic wrap clinging onto your lips but it isn't as sticky. To have a more comfortable wear, I'd recommend slapping on a layer of lip balm or slick gloss after the color dries. Adds A LOT more shine and makes the color stay on better?

This doesn't really come off even during drinking. Do note that people with drier lips like mine, your lips MAY peel. I've experienced peeling on and off so it truly depends on the condition of your lips that day. I didn't really enjoy this color because I'M A PINK PERSON! Which is why I'm dying to try their new shade but I'm not sure if I'll spend on it because after all, I have only one mouth. I still have more lip swatches coming up!

I might instead try out their newest eye cream vibrator thingy! Sounds interesting enough and might possibly help with my ginormous eyebags.

Glossiness : ★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆ (Dries down to not a very glossy finish unless you add clear gloss over!)
Pigmentation : ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ (Definitely opaque)
Lasting power : ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆ (Long wear long wear! Barely comes off!)
Overall : ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆ (It's a 3.5 actually. I would consider trying out their other shades, but not for now as I'm pretty broke!)

Cheers,
Chiharu ❤
