The L'Oreal Paris Color Riche Intense Volume Matte Lipstick in 103 Blush Audace performs as a high-impact, comfortable matte lip color. Its rich pigmentation provides excellent coverage in one or two swipes. The Hyaluronic Acid helps maintain lip comfort, which is notable for a matte formula, often prone to drying.
For optimal performance, begin with clean, exfoliated lips. A thin layer of lip balm or primer can be applied beforehand, allowing it to absorb fully before lipstick application. Use the slimline bullet to first define your lip outline, then fill in the rest of your lips. For an enhanced "plumped pout" effect, you can subtly overline your natural lip contour with the lipstick or a matching lip liner before filling in. The 16-hour wear claim holds well for general activities, though expect some fading or the need for a touch-up after heavy meals, especially those involving oils. The transfer-resistant quality is effective, significantly reducing marks compared to traditional lipsticks. Its lightweight feel makes it suitable for extended wear without discomfort, making it an excellent choice for both everyday use and special occasions.
Example Application Tip: To maximize longevity, apply a thin layer, blot gently with a tissue, and then apply a second thin layer. This technique can help the color adhere better and last longer.
This lipstick requires no setup; it's ready for immediate use. Simply twist the base of the slimline applicator to reveal the product.
Skin Tones: 103 Blush Audace is a versatile pink shade that generally complements a wide range of skin tones. The final appearance can vary slightly based on individual lip pigment and skin undertones.
With Other Products: This lipstick pairs well with lip liners for enhanced precision and definition. For very dry lips, a hydrating lip primer or balm can be applied underneath (allow to absorb completely).
Storage: Store your lipstick in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent melting or changes in consistency.
Hygiene: Always keep the cap securely on when not in use to protect the product from dust and air, which can cause drying. Avoid sharing personal lip products to maintain hygiene.
Cleaning: If the lipstick bullet gets smudged, gently wipe it with a clean tissue. Do not use water or harsh cleaners on the product itself.
