The colours are beautiful. In my local pharmacy they had 5 shades, including a nude, an orange and a red. All absolutely eye catching. But being the pink lover that I am, I went straight for 105 Petal Plush and 705 Blush Essence. Petal Plush is a lovely baby pink, slightly blue-ish toned, with some fine shimmers in it and Blush Essence is a more rosy shade, not as shimmery, but still very glossy. It's my favourite out of the two.

Staying power is also pretty good. Even after eating or drinking I could still feel my lips a little moisturised and it leaves a subtle stain behind. Not as strong as other Lip Stains, but I'd say I only need to reapply once/twice during the whole day, unless I'm eating and drinking too often! And to top it off, it smells amazing!
The only thing I would change would be for the shade 105 Petal Plush to be less glittery. Just personal preference. But overall, I can't fault this product. I'm really impressed! It was honestly love at first swipe! :-)
Superdrug currently has a '2 for £10' deal on them. I'm tempted to buy more shades! I saw online that there's also a Caramel and a Coral lip gloss, which my local shop didn't have. I will hunt them down or will order online! Superdrug offers free delivery to the shops, which is pretty convenient.
Have you got your hands on the Color Elixirs yet? What are your thoughts on them? X
I just seen these this morning in superdrug and was tempted to get one, I will have to wait till next week, blush essence looks a pretty colour.x

I saw these in Superdrug and all the shades look so lovely. I wondered how they'd wear and think I'll try them out after reading this. :)

They are very comfortable on the lips. Definitely worth trying. :-)

They do look very high end, don't they? And honestly... they apply just as nicely as more expensive products. X
DeleteHow cute are those! The look a bit like the Dior lipsticks x

Has it changed already? I looked in Superdrug yesterday and it was still buy 2 for £10. It's worth asking as they had the buy 1 get 2nd half price as standard but had added a small sign saying buy 2 for £10. X
DeleteWith you on the glitteriness of lipglosses! These sound great, I'm waiting for them to come out here ;) xx
