L'Oreal paris caresse shine

hey beauties ,
Its spring / summer time all we pretty girls  don't want to wear a sticky gloss or a heavy lipstick. 
We want something that is light but yet gives us that awesome pout. 
And L'Oreal paris has taken care of those needs with their caresse shine range. 
What L'Oreal says about the Shine Caresse Lip colors :
The next generation lip colour, that combines the texture & shine of a gloss with the long wear of a stain. Delivering a lasting colour with a subtle glossy shine. The unique formula comprised of 30% water and 60% oil provides an exceptionally high level of moisture, allowing for 6hr hydration. Concentrated soluble colour pigments create a subtle wet look with a weightless feeling on lips.

Packaging :
It comes in a very classy ysl type golden coloured tube. It is light weight with a Tranperant section through which one can identify the colour of the stain (which is boon for all the hoarders) 

Purchased: I purchased 3 shades 
1- 605-eve
2- 604-bella 
3- 606-Lolita 

My experience :
I wore the shade 606 Lolita which is mauve ish colour to a formal presentation as i wanted to add just a hint of colour i applied it around 8 am in the morning and checked it only after my presentation got over around 12. It was fairly glossy at this time i had coffee in between and to my surprise it did not transfer like a lipstick which was amazing. 
By 2 pm the gloss had faded but the stain was there on my lips making it look as i was wearing a lipstick when i was not. I had to reapply it around 5:30-6 pm as i was heading over to party and i did applied 3 coats and it was a beautiful opaque mauve colour. The colour is buildable but you want to make sure you apply the second coat only after the first coat sets in. As the colour tends to look darker after it sets it. 
It is definately my favourite lip stain. 
 


Pros:
light weight (almost like water) 
•glossy 
•non sticky 
•sleek pakaging 
•easy application 
•good staying power 
•buildable colour 
•travel friendly 
•easily available 
•suitable for beginners 

Cons: 
has to be applied carefully 
• has to be applied several times( on pigmented lips) 
Advise: 
If you have dry lips use a lip butter or lip balm before you apply the stain. Not using a lip balm beneath can make your lips look drier. 
My thoughts:
For a girl like me who prefers gloss and stains over lipstick this product is definately a boon. 
It is perfect for any time of the year. 
It has a soft pleasent scent. 
I dont have to worry about reapplying as it stays on for a good 4-5 hours and even after the gloss fades away the stain is there to stay. Thats a bonus. 
The only thing i disliked about this product was that it needs to applied carefully because it can bleed and once it sets in you cannot erase any mistakes.
Final verdict:
I have been obsessing over these since i got them. I just apply one sheer coat for the day time and build the colour for the night. 
This is definately a must have for all the girls.
