Happy Monday Beauty Queens ! So I am a little late on the whole L’Oreal La Laque and Le Matte Lipsticks bandwagon…maybe by about two years. L’Oreal debuted these beauties back in the Fall of 2013. But as quickly as they came, they were gone. They were a limited edition product that I just could not get my hands on. Thanks Target. I have a love/hate relationship with my old home town Target. They NEVER had any of the good limited edition products back then! However, our relationship is on the up and up because last time I was home they had the two colors I had been searching for. From what I could tell, they are no longer limited edition and there are more shades! There are five shades each of the La Laque & the Le Matte. Being the nude lover I am, I bought the two nudish shades of each. I have a habit of trying the nude/pinkish shades first to see if I like the formulation. You can never have too many nudes or pinks, am I right?
The shades I purchased were ….
209-Choco-Lacque – a great mauve/nude pink.
102-She’s So Matte- a medium peachy pink.
They aren’t the most opaque lip crayons out there and are not that long wearing. The scent is the same as all the other L’Oreal lipstick, which I am NOT a fan of. But the packaging is cute, so give and take I guess? Oh and they were almost $10…geezzz. I do, however, LOVE the colors. The Choco is such a perfect light mauvey pink, great for day time, or with a smokey eye. And the She’s So Matte is like the perfect medium pink/peachy color for everyday. Overall, I do love them. The colors I purchased are easy to wear and are both perfect for fall. I am not sure I would go back and purchase any of the other shades though.
Have you tried the L’Oreal La Laque and Le Matte Lipsticks?

LOVE Le Matte! I just picked up a very pink version at Ulta and I’m obsessed. It gives me the same color as my Poppy Tint from Benefit but much cheaper!

I will have to go hunt that color down!

I haven’t event heard of these little lippies! That’s a bummer they don’t last very long… have you tried using a lip primer with them?? Lately I’ve been all about NYX lip butter! xo
