Dreaming of having an afternoon of tea and French bread in Paris? I thought I was one day when I got invited at the very sophisticated L’artisan Café in Serendra, Bonifacio Global City for a French-inspired #LOrealSwatchandShoot event.
Together with other bloggers/vloggers and beauty enthusiasts, I was transported to Paris where magnificence and fashion are definitely a thing. Indeed, the combination of the café’s gorgeousness and L’Oreal Makeup Designer/Paris is both awe-inspiring and intimate. I loved every bit of it!
L’Oreal Swatch and Shoot event introduced new shades and range of products that every Filipina would adore. I have always been a fan of L’Oreal beauty products, especially the make-up, and I absolutely enjoyed trying them on I thought I couldn’t stop myself. The natural glow L’Oreal gave me is something I wanted to have every single day. Nudes are trending now, the simpler the better. I felt beautiful and confident because the shades are easily wearable.
Let’s take a look at some of them…

Lippies, my personal favorite!
Color Riche Matte Reds (Php 400)
Cosmo.ph did a test on 200 lipsticks, glosses, stains, balms, tints, and scrubs to find out which ones stand out from the rest. Guess who bagged two of the honors from this very first Cosmo.ph Lippie Awards?
Both belong to this L’Oreal Color Riche Matte Reds collection – Pure Garnet and Pure Rouge in the Best Dark Colors and Best Reds categories, respectively. You know you will never go wrong with these shades. Pure Garnet is a best-seller because of its deep wine color that looks flattering on all skin tones. According to Cosmo.ph, Pure Rouge is the kind of red that can be wearable during the day, and it gives the perfect vampy look when built up further. These ultra-comfortable neutral matte reds don’t feel dry at all and can last all day.

Get that youthful look with the 7 delicate shades of Color Riche Velvet Pinks. If you’re afraid to wear pink, don’t worry because each shade is custom-made to fit every Filipina skin tone to complement the natural pink shade of the lips.

I found all of the colors attractive but this shade stood out for me – L’Oreal Color Riche Velvet Pinks in Nymphea.
This was the exact same shade that Solenn Heusaff wore on her wedding day. This natural pink shade is now on my favorite lippies collection.
