Bourjois Metallic Lip Creams Review and Photo's

Bourjois Metallic Lip Gloss

With the phenomena of the Liquid Lipstick over the past couple of years, this popular lip choice has taken on a whole new meaning this year with the introduction of the metallic liquid lip. Bourjois is the latest brand to release their own collection of 8 party-ready shades that are the perfect addition to any festive partygoers makeup look! So here are my thoughts...

Price

The Bourjois Metallic Lip Creams retail for £7.99 for 3.6ml of product. As I mentioned above there are 8 colours to choose from including,
1. Supernova (300) - A Light Champagne Bronze.
2. Guilded Rose (100) - A Deep Rose/Bronze.
3. Molten Mauve (200) - A Duochrome light Rose/Brown.
4. Red Carpet (600) - A Vivid Wine Red.
5. Neon Nights (500) - A Vivid Fuschia Pink.
6. Pink Fizz (400) - A Light Petal Pink.
7. Liquid Steel (700) - Another Stunning Duochrome Lilac/Grey.
8. Midnight Metal (800) - A Deep Grey/Blue.
The full collection of swatches can be found on the Superdrug website here.

Packaging
When it comes to coloured lip products I prefer simple packaging just like these Bourjois Lip Creams, as it lets you see each colour much more clearly. Inside you'll find a decently sized doe foot applicator that is slightly slanted for ease of use.
Application
These Lip Creams are very much like a lip gloss formula in the sense they have a lovely thick consistency and feel super smooth and comfortable on the lips. They also glide on effortlessly to reveal a richly pigmented metallic gloss, however, they do transfer easily.

I have to admit I'm not the biggest fan of a metallic lip but I do like the fact these are versatile as they can be worn alone or as a lip topper to transform a regular cream or matte lipstick. I also recommend if you're wearing these alone to apply a thin layer first, then blot with a tissue before going in with a second thin layer.

Longevity
These last a good few hours, but I would recommend popping them in your bag for on the go touch-ups.

Overall Thoughts
I have to say the metallic lip trend hasn't been my personal cup of tea, but I do quite like the Bourjois Metallic Lip Creams because of their unique colour selection and lip gloss like the texture, as well as the fact these are comfortable, versatile, non-sticky and highly pigmented on the lips.

Price wise they are a little more expensive for the amount you get in the tube compared to some other drugstore metallic lip products but if you've grown fond of the metallic lip trend then as I mentioned above these are a great addition to any festive party look. So if you're after something a little different to spice up your lips or you're a fan of a metallic lip or lip topper in general, then these may be worth a look at if not for the beautiful colour selection alone.

I award the Bourjois Metallic Lip Creams a 4.3 out of 5
