Bourjois Rouge Edition Shine - The Perfect Summer Lipstick?

Bourjois Rouge Edition Shine - The Perfect Summer Lipstick?
By Beaut.ie  | Jun 11, 2013

Bourjois are on fire right now - this year is their 150th anniversary and in honour of that, they are turning out hit after hit after hit.

Their new bronzing base has hardly been off my face since I got it and  the revamped Healthy Mix serum is, hands down, my favourite budget foundation. And now with their new lipstick range they're giving Chanel's Rouge Coco Shine and Dior's Addict Extreme lines a serious run for their money.

Fans of that balmy, shiny, hybrid lipgloss/lipstick formula will absolutely love these - and love the price point, too. €10.99 will snag you one of these soft, creamy bullets of joy and there are eight pretty shades to choose from, including pinks, reds, purples and nudes.

The texture is gorgeous: they're super soft and glide on in that melt-into-your-lips kinda way. You get loads of shine and very decent colour coverage too - more satin than sheer, the two I have are lovely and bright for the summer.

 

Famous Fuchsia is a gorgeous hot pink, Soleil 1,2,3 is a bang on-trend orangey coral and they're both vibrant, shiny and lovely and comfortable to wear. You're getting colour and care here - they're enriched with mango butter extract to moisturise your lips while you wear 'em.

I can't say enough good things about these lippies so get thee to a Bourjois stand and get swatching! The official launch date is mid July but Boots often get things in a bit sooner - if you've spotted them already, let us know.
