L'Oreal Paris Infallible Le Rouge Lipstick Resilient Raisin : Review & Swatches

Hi Lovelies!

Posting after a long time (or that I feel is a long time) because I just wanted to enjoy the awesome weather that is set! :)

Anyways, I am back with a lipstick review. Lipsticks are one of my favorite makeup items & I feel that I cannot "too many" at any point of time.. Lol!!

So today I am reviewing L'Oreal Paris Infallible Le Rouge Lipstick Resilient Raisin (829). There is something about the "BROWNS" that is bringing me to the like crazy! In the recent past I have managed to gather a bunch of them. :)

So let's see how it is! 

Packaging :

The new infallible lipsticks are packaged quite elegantly & look attractive on the vanity as well. The bottom of the tube is black & the cap is color coded with the lipstick. The shade name & number is printed on the bottom of the lipstick. So if you happen to have more than 1 of these, then there should be absolutely no hassles in picking the correct color whether you store them straight or upside down.


The cap shuts tight with a very satisfactory 'click' sound only in the place where there is a insertion for it to go. So there is no way that this lipstick will ever open in your bag or anywhere else! 

Price & Weight :

INR. 1150/- for 2.5 Gms. CLICK HERE TO BUY  from Amazon currently at discount!

This is one thing that stunned me actually!! The price to insanely high & quantity that we get is tiny. I mean only 2.5gms of lipsticks for over 1000 bucks!! I mean if I add on a couple of 100s, I can get a MAC lipstick now. L'Oreal I think you must revisit your prices once in a while! 

Color & Texture :

L'Oreal Infallible Le Rouge Lipstick : Resilient Raisin

Resilient Raisin as exactly what the shade name is.. A gorgeous and rich brown raisin color which will compliment every skin tone. The shade is quite intense & dark brown almost to the extent that it looks RED at some point. What attracted me to this shade is it's richness & how it made me look stylish without having a ton of other makeup on.

The texture of the lipstick is more like a sticky matte, which has an intense creamy texture. It also has a shine to it almost like a gloss is mixed in it. Do not worry about it as that shine fades as the day passes.  It certainly leans more towards matte texture but then its far from what a traditional matte lipstick is! I hope that has drawn some picture of this lipstick's texture in your minds! :)

Pigmentation & Fragrance :

The lipstick is pigmented to the core & for my lips all I need in 1 good swipe of this lipstick on my lips. However, I always go over again with a second swipe no matter what the pigmentation is!! 

The lipstick has a vanilla-y fragrance to it almost like how MAC lippies have which I love actually.

Staying Power :

Here is where I was absolutely flabbergasted! This baby lasts on the lips for a good 8 hours without any fading. This includes lunch time & snacks time & I kid you not it lasts! 

After that even though the lipstick actually fades a tad bit, it is not noticeable for someone else except the person who is either wearing the lipstick or someone who watches closely.

Here is how it looks on me! :)

Pros of L'Oreal Paris Infallible Le Rouge Lipstick Resilient Raisin :

• An absolutely gorgeous shade not only for mid age & mature women in particular but for younger girls as well (if worn with the right makeup)
• Deep pigmentation
• Packaging is classy
• Not at all uncomfortable on the lips
• Good staying power

Cons of L'Oreal Paris Infallible Le Rouge Lipstick Resilient Raisin :

• As I have stated : Highly over priced!! 

My overall thoughts on this lipstick :

If you have always been a L'Oreal lipstick lover like I am, then you may spend your bucks on this shade because this shade is amazing. However I feel this range in general can be skipped because there are brands which keep similar shades but have way lesser pricing.!
