I have no idea when this product became available to buy in the UK (maybe last year some time?), but I have only just discovered them and I love them so much. Bourjois is one of the make up brands I really want to buy more products from as I hear so many people rave about them. The Colour Boost Lipsticks are the first products I have bought from Bourjois and they claim to be waterproof with SPF 15 which is always a good claim if you are planning a holiday in a hotter country than England. They are basically a glossy finish lipstick and it also claims to give you a 'bare lip sensation' and I have to disagree with this because it is still a gloss so if you gave long hair like me and it's windy, as per usual in the UK, then your hair can get stuck to your lips. Attractive, I know.
This is a mixture between a lipstick and a lip gloss which is awesome as they are so easy to apply, with a crayon look, and give you the best of both worlds with the lip products. It is a hydrating product and on the website it says that it lasts for 10 hours (comfort and hydration), which isn't entirely true. The lasting power is quite good for a lipstick/gloss combination product but you would have to re apply after a few hours, like the same with any other lip product.
I am not sure how many colours there are, but in Boots there are 6, in Superdrug there are 4 and on the Bourjois website there are 5 I believe, currently anyway. The colours are super for Spring and Summer and I would definitely recommend them as they are quite subtle as well as bold? That doesn't make any sense, but if you see them you may understand. I have the colours 'Orange Punch' number 03 which is an amazing orange colour and 'Peach On The Beach' number 04 which is such a beautiful baby pink colour. Plus that name is so adorable and just grabs you in even more!
The packaging is great as the colour on the outside is pretty much the colour of the product which is helpful, especially if you are in a rush. The silver bar at the bottom is where you twist it to get more product to the top, just in case you were wondering.
For £7.99 you can't really go wrong with these as they are amazing quality; a colour to suit every occasion and I love the fact that they aren't matte and they don't show up any rough parts on your lips,so if you suffer with dry lips, they are hydrating which will come in very useful.
If you haven't already got one of these then I suggest you go out and grab one or two or all of them because they are awesome and they look pretty and it's a lipstick/lipgloss combination! Fantabulous!! :)
