Hi everyone,

I hope the week is coming along well for you. Lipsticks -  can we women have many of them? In my case never :P If you have been following my blog from the very beginning you would know my love for lipsticks. Before I stepped into the blogging world I was a hoarder and would buy sometimes 8 to 10 lipsticks in one go. But as we get older we get intelligent with our choices and hence I can comfortably now go for shopping  & know exactly what I want to buy. Today I shall be reviewing Oriflame's Colour Drop Lipstick in Glossy Berry. Read on to know more..

What does Oriflame say about the lisptick:

Endless perfection, intense colour and high shine gloss with the world's first lipstick to follow the curves of a woman's lips.With Dew Drop Complex for intense moisture.



The lipstick comes in a cardboard box with basic instructions and ingredients printed on it. The expiry date is also mentioned on the tube which is good as we tend to throw the box out and keep the bullet.The lipstick bullet is sleek and hot pink in color. It is very sleek looking. I totally adore the packaging very stylish indeed.It also has a flat bottom so the lipstick can stand looking pretty on your dressing table ;) The cap click  locks and is sturdy and travel friendly. Overall I love the packaging.

The lipstick as the name suggests is a glossy & dark berry in color. It is quite glossy & almost comparable to a lip gloss but better.Also because it is glossy it looks more subtle & wearable on the lips & will look good on every skin type. I love the smell of the lipstick..Ahhh!! It smells & tastes just like candy :p The lipstick is buttery smooth & glides like a dream on the lips.The colour needs to be built up on the lips as it is quite sheer on application.These lipsticks remind me of the Revlon Lip Butters which were sold quite a while ago. There is no shimmer to the lipstick which is vow!!  The staying power is not that great as it is glossy in nature & once it fades it leaves a nice tint back hence you definitely would need to reapply it during the day. This shade is perfect for office wear as well. This lipstick is my current favourite & I love it a lot.

The Good:

Easily available through any Oriflame representative.

Beautiful color.

Berry is perfect shade for fall/winter

Glossy and moisturizing.

Nice color pay off.

Smells like candy.

The not so Good:

You need to swipe more than once for desired opaqueness.

Tendency to melt.

Rating: 4.2/5

Oriflame Colour Drop Lipstick in Glossy Berry is a beautiful berry shade which will suit all skin tones due to its glossy nature. Now that it is winters I prefer lipsticks like these and hence would recommend you give these a try.  You can check out a beautiful red & pink lipstick reviewed by me in the same range as well.
