Review | Lancôme L’Absolu Lacquer Lip Gloss

Hi Everyone!

I realized that I never wrote a dedicated review to the Lancôme L’Absolu Lacquer Lip Gloss.

This innovative lip gloss combines the comfort and shine of a gloss, the pigment of a lipstick and the lasting power of a stain. Our innovative oil in water emulsion is lightweight and non-sticky, providing up to 6H of wear. Enriched with glycerin, lips feel hydrated throughout the day. The high shine finish and vivid colour payoff are buildable from sheer to full coverage in 1-2-3 coats.

1) One coat for a sheer natural look witha dewy shine finish
2) Two coats for an intense look with fresh colour and lacquered shine finish.
3) Three coats for a dramatic look with audacious colour impact & ultra lacquered shine!

Originally, I bought this for my mom. It’s the shade 236 Pour Toujours. We bought it based on the online swatch (see below)- it looked more mauve than it does in real life. My mom tried it and it wasn’t quite her colour, so she gave it to me.

I quickly fell in love with it. This lippie is basically a hybrid of a lipstick and a gloss – pigmented with a glossy sheen. It’s lightweight and doesn’t feel sticky like a gloss. It’s the perfect My Lips But Better Shade for me. I love the flat applicator and the slightly pointy/rounded tip of it.

Top swatch is slightly blended in, bottom swatch is straight from the tube.

RATING: 5/5

The name of this shade is perfect because I think I will have this in my collection ‘Forever’ (Pour Toujours). I would definitely consider trying other shades.

Have you tried the L’Absolu Lacquer Lip Gloss?

Love,
