Get A L'oreal Liquid Lipstick Better Than Half Price!

If you read my blog/twitter/facebook etc you have probably noticed how much I LOVE a good bargain.
Sometimes I see an offer that is so good I just can't say no no matter how skint I may be.... this was one of those offers!
It was over a year ago now that I first blogged about the L'oreal L'Extraordinaire Liquid Lipsticks and how much I had fallen in love with them (see that glowing review - here) and since then my fuchsia drama baby has been used over and over again, becoming a regular in my make-up bag.

So seeing this HUGE saving on one of my favourite L'oreal products ever had me squealing with excitement. 
The make-up giant has teamed up with the drinks giant that is Coca Cola - so at Boots now when you buy a 500ml bottle of diet coke you SAVE £5 on your liquid lipstick
Bringing the usual £8.99 price tag down to just £3.99. (Cheaper than most drugstore lip products out there ya know AND you'll get points on your advantage card!)
 I decided to go with the nice summery shade 'Rose Symphony' (201), seeing as we are soooo nearly there - summer is on the way people! This is a gorgeous pinky shade with a sight coral tint, the formula to these is amazing and I'm so happy I have another one added to my collection.... in fact... I feel like I should go back and take advantage of this offer while it lasts really!

(And yes.... we all know I don't actually like coke .... but Joe does so it's all good! It won't go to waste!)
This offer is valid in Boots stores nationwide from April 29th - 26th May!

L'oreal L'Extraordinaire Liquid Lipstick by Color Riche - 401 Fuschia Drama Review

Do you ever have one of those products that you see, you want, but you know you shouldn't buy because 1. you don't really need it and 2. you don't have the money?

 Well... this is that product for me! I am on a spending ban so another pink lip product to add to my collection just seems totally unnecessary BUT.... this has been whispering my name since the day I saw it a couple of weeks ago and I'm sorry to say but I finally gave into to the lipstick pressure and purchased it. (don't worry girls and boys I got a  total  3 for 2 bargain so it kind of made it all worth it!)
This is one of the new L'oreal L'Extraordinaire Liquid Lipstick by Color Riche in the shade 401 Fuschia Drama.
Like I just mentioned these are NEW lipsticks from L'oreal and they are a little different to anything else they sell because they are liquid lipsticks.
These are an oil-based product which come out super pigmented and smooth - the swatch I tried our in store had me sold!
Now this wasn't the only shade that I have been lusting over in this new collection but I thought buying one was bad enough so I narrowed it down to just my favourite of the bunch!
This is a gorgeous bright Fuschia shade (hence the name) and we all know how much Kirstie loves her Fuschia shades!
First up I have to say.... hello sunshine! I was so happy this past weekend to see that beautiful ball of fire in the sky - number one reason ...better photos for the blog yay!!

I love that this has a soft doe-footed applicator - it is the perfect shape and size for a quick, neat and easy lip. 
The product itself is so smooth and creamy with great pigmentation!
It really does feel as soft as a balm and on the lips looks just as thick and opaque as a lipstick but also super shiny just like a gloss!
3 in 1!

It has a lovely fruity scent which I love (I think it's the oils!) - there nothing worse than a gloss type product that either has no scent or a horrible one, so top marks for the L'oreal!
The only thing I would say was that I don't think this has the greatest staying power, personally I've had better (like Apocalips) but it's so easy to reapply and you only need one swipe to get a good colour.
I'm loving this product, it is so great for an everyday lip - the softness of a balm, the shine of a gloss and the colour of a lipstick, I'm so tempted to invest in some more of the colours now - but I must be strong for the spending ban!

Have you guys tried out these newbies from L'oreal yet?
