Beauty and the Beast Lip Gloss Collection

LORAC Beauty and the Beast Lip Gloss Collection ($34.00 for 0.90 fl. oz.) includes five, full-sized lipglosses in hues of pink, coral, and red. The MOD Lip Gloss formula is described as a “non-tacky, moderate-shine gloss.” The brand made no specific claims with respect to pigmentation level, though they stated that the glosses could be used on top of the lipsticks also released in this collection. Lipgloss is typically not opaque and on average, falls somewhere in the middle–some pigmentation/coverage so they can be worn alone but not full coverage, which the standard I held these glosses up to. The coverage varied from sheer to medium with moderate, noticeable shine with a smooth, non-sticky texture. While they were comfortable to wear, they wore away quickly and would need very regular reapplication.

True Beauty

True Beauty is a light pink with subtle, warm undertones and fine, golden pearl. It had medium coverage that applied evenly to the lips and did not appear streaky, but the milky quality of the color did result in some color settling into my lip lines. This shade lasted for two hours on me and was hydrating.

Red Rose

Red Rose is a brighter, medium pink-red with cool undertones and a natural shine. It had medium color payoff that applied to the lips without streaking. The consistency was thin, lightweight, and non-tacky, which made it easy to apply and to wear. It lasted for three hours and was lightly moisturizing.

Belle-ieve

Belle-ieve is a light-medium, peachy brown with warm undertones and a moderate shine. It had semi-sheer coverage that went on fairly evenly, though there was just a smidgen of product that gathered in my deeper lip lines. The gloss was smooth, lightweight, and lightly hydrating over the two hours it lasted.

Tres Chic

Tres Chic is a soft, medium-dark brown with warm undertones and a cream finish. It had semi-sheer color payoff with fine gold pearl that I almost did not notice in the swatch it was that fine. The gloss was comfortable to wear as it was lightweight, creamy without being heavy, and not at all sticky. It only lasted for an hour and a half on me, though.

Savoir Faire

Savoir Faire is a medium-dark peach with warm, orange undertones and a cream finish. It had medium pigmentation that applied evenly to the lips without streaking. I did have more noticeable lip color that had settled into my lip lines, though I did not feel it was overly noticeable from afar. The texture was lightweight, smooth without being tacky, and comfortable to wear. This shade lasted two and a half hours and was slightly moisturizing.
