For my own enjoyment, I want to share the knowledge I have collected as a pre-med and as a medical student while also sharing my passion for all my favorite things, like makeup and lattes.

L'Oreal Infallible Lip Paints

No comments :
TLDR: Really like it in Spicy Blush. Might be an everyday product for me. Comfortable and easy to apply. Not transfer proof.

I thought it was fitting to write about something I am currently wearing and loving. I am an avid beauty guru watcher on Youtube, and I feel the community does not give enough credit to drugstore products. Don't get me wrong, I love a good high end product, but my wallet doesn't.


According to the Ulta website:
"Lacquer up lips in high-impact liquid color with L'Oreal's Infallible Lip Paints. In one stroke, the designer applicator precisely diffuses vibrant, full-coverage color to lips for comfortable wear. Available in a variety of high-impact colors, from nude to bold.

Benefits:

  • Saturated with pigments
  • High color impact
  • Designer applicator"


I bought the L'Oreal Infallible Paint (one of their versions of a liquid lipstick) in Spicy Blush 314 at Ulta.com for $9.99, and I think the color is perfect for my paler skin tone.  These are very pigmented. The formula is not drying at all. That being said, it takes forever to dry, and I am tempted to say that it will never dry down completely, which is not typical for liquid lipsticks. The lipstick is not a stain or a true liquid lip but closer to a creamy lipstick. This does make it more comfortable to wear. You would have to fix it up during the day most likely, but it is so pretty. It smells kind of like candy. It was so easy to apply for me and doesn't dry too fast so that it is hard to get it on. I did line my lips every time I wore this product, and it seems to be relatively transfer proof on me (at least with this color) for most of the day, unless I was eating.  I am not one to reapply lip products much throughout the day so I feel this color would be for a shorter day. It is ok when it comes to food, but, like most lip products, it will transfer and fade away on the inner part of your lip, as Jaclyn Hill would call it "The Butthole Lip". While she is not my absolute favorite Youtuber, she does come up with a great name for this phenomenon with lip products. Overall, it did fulfill all of its claims so that is a plus.

I am thinking about buying another color but am unsure if any of the other available colors would look that great on my skin tone (I might get the Nude Star color).  I would recommend this to a friend if they wanted a cheap lipstick as I feel these look great and were comfortable to wear. If you want a true liquid lip, I would not recommend these.


I have included some links if you want to see more on this product. I included Tati's video because she always buys all the shades and swatches them. I also included Cassie's video because her test videos always seem honest, and she shows you how it performs throughout the day if you need another reference.

Update: I bought Nude Star, and I am pleasantly surprised. It is a pinker nude color and is quite flattering on my skin tone.  I did not line my lips with this color, mostly because I did not have a matching color, but it was not an issue, most likely because it is a darker color. Formula seems to be consistent with Spicy Blush.
