L'Oreal ParisMakeup Rouge Signature Matte Lip Stain, I Explore

This is a beautiful lip stain that glides on easily and is smudge resistant once it dries. But be careful while applying because it will stain skin or clothing and doesn't wash off easily. Stays on all day. I typically apply a gloss to soften the look. Didn't notice a taste or smell. Good quality item and good amount/size.

Wonderful lipstick. Leaves a stain afterwards. Goes on easy and easy to reapply after eating.

Shade: I ENJOYIt applies like a watery lip stain. The first coat was the way stains typically look on me. A pigmented wash of color that allows a little of my own natural lip tone to peek through. I wanted a finish that was more opaque so I layered a second coat on and I achieved the desired color intensity I was looking for. TIP: Allow product to dry between layers. Drying time increases with each additional layer of color.The lipstick does not dry immediately so if you get a lil messy at the corners or edges, you can take a cotton swab or tissue and fix it.To be honest, since this formula feels like water going on your lips I was worried it would dry my lips out. To my surprise, I forgot I was wearing lipstick. This is weightless on the lips. It did not leave my lips feeling dry.Now, I drank water, soda, orange juice, more water, etc.,. I ate an oily dish and even wiped my mouth with a tissue to remove food particles. I did not retouch my lips after the initial application. The end result is there was color intensity loss. It ended up looking like an old school lip stain. I find that acceptable because it still looked attractive. There was no crumbling, no dryness, just made my lips look like I was wearing a lip stain at the end of the day.

Good shade

The product appeared new and was sealed, but it was not in L’Oreal packaging. It was in generic packaging like you sometimes see at the dollar tree. The lipstick itself is great, soft, moisturizing and pigmented.

I would have given this no stars, but I had to give one. I can't review this product because what was labeled as new, was not. The tube had been opened before and used. You can see that this time has been around for awhile just looking at the name. Looking at the tube, you can see that it has been used.

Love the red!

The only lipstick I will use. Stays on for hours and fades without leaving a "ring* around your a mouth when it does fade. Fairly priced.
