My Review:
I really adore the packaging of these newly launched l’oreal infallible lipsticks with their pretty color-coded plastic caps (this one is a pretty orange) which click tightly shut and black sturdy tubes. Sleek and easy to carry around.
The texture of this lipstick, just like the others is very smooth and creamy without being slippery or glossy- a pleasure to apply in this winter! It applies smoothly on lips without highlighting my lip flaws and results in a polished healthy pout.
The shade Always Apricot is so aptly named I tell you! It is a lovely apricot orange, a slightly warmer toned orange instead of the glaring in your face orange which I am err..scared of! This is a very pretty spring-summer color to just pep up your look to the right notch. It looks pretty similar to charismatic coral in swatches but trust me, its soo different when on lips. The pigmentation of this one is very good as well and just needs a couple of light swipes.
The staying power is very good also and easily lasts on my lips for a good 4-5 hours through light food and drinks and definitely leaves behind a stain. It does not dry out my lips though after fading so that’s great.

Do I recommend? If you are ok with coughing up such a sum for a l’oreal lipstick, then this definitely is the shade to give a go! I am not an orange lover but I was amazed at how pretty this muted apricot-y orange looked on my lips. Such a nice shade.
