The packaging of the Collection Privée lipsticks definitely stand out amongst the permanent range with its sleek, rubberised black casing and gold detailing.
There’s 6 nude shades representing 6 of L’Oreal Paris’ iconic spokespersons: Cheryl Cole, Doutzen Kroes, Freida Pinto, Julianne Moore, Eva Longoria and Liya Kebede.
Barely Golden is a warm, peachy nude with a hint of bronze which captures the essence of Eva Longoria’s sun kissed glow. And as a person having a natural olive skin tone, I have found that until now it had proven quite difficult to find that perfect nude to compliment my features.
The lipstick is well pigmented and looks quite opaque on the lips. It also lasts considerably well and withstands normal amounts of eating and drinking. And the best part, the price is just right!
