Packaging
The new L’Oreal Gold Obsession Lipsticks are packaged in a black-gold ombre casing with a color coded button of sorts for easy identification. The packaging is similar to the L’Oreal Moist Matte Lipsticks however it is very different in texture. The shade names are mentioned on the bottom and the signature of the celebrities endorsing the shade is inscribed on the cap. I must say, the packaging looks very luxurious and pretty.
Texture & Finish
The L’Oreal Paris Bold in Gold Lipsticks have a soft and very creamy formula. They literally glide on like butter and feel very smooth. These lipsticks are extremely moisturizing and are a boon for dry or chapped lips. They consist of very fine 24k gold particles which do not feel gritty. It provides a glossy finish to the lips making them look luscious and healthy.
Pigmentation & Staying Power
L’Oreal Paris Color Riche Gold Obsession Lipsticks are highly pigmented and a single swipe gives a great color pay off. Shades like Le Gold & Coral Gold require a couple of swipes but cover lip pigmentation very well. As for the wear time, they stay put for around 3-4 hours due to the creme finish. Since the lipsticks are very buttery, I find that they work better with a lip liner to avoid feathering of the colors.
