Swatch, FOTD - L'Oreal Colour Caresse Wet Shine Stain Pink Rebellion

I can't believe another week flew by without a single post.
I recently took up on another job (on top of the gazillion things I am doing) and it has been taking a lot of time.

It is a little too soon to write another post on Wet Shine Stain, but I have been reaching for this almost everyday and this has been a godsend for my hectic schedule.
Also, the second color I picked up, Pink Rebellion shows up quite different on my lips and the color payoff is different as well compared to the Infinite Fuchsia (reviewed HERE).
I am just going to talk about the color and its sheerer consistency in this post.


L'Oreal Colour Caresse Wet Shine Stain Pink Rebellion




As you see, Pink Rebellion is a medium blue-based pink from the tube.


This is one swipe on my arm.
It feels cool and watery on contact and has sheerer consistency compared to Infinite Fuchsia.
What is interesting is that the color still shows up pink which is true to the color from tube.

I waited for about 10 minutes and wiped it off.
Lighter yet visible stain is left behind.


However, It is a very different story once applied on my lips.
It turns almost immediately into a light blue based red on my lips!
(I thought my cosmetic world tuned upside down when I put this on for the first time. ;o)

Initial application
Still pink but warmer than the color you see from the tube

This is how it looks after 5 minutes or so.
The color is very natural and even but significantly warmer and red!


I was shocked in the beginning but I ended up liking this color a lot, even more than Infinite Fuchsia.
It goes on quite sheer so I would need a couple coats, but it covers very evenly and the lasting powder is just fantastic. 
I am not sure if this color has the same effect on others cause I do notice my lips pull red and pink more.
Considering that stain products do turn darker and more intense once applied, I think it is reasonable to expect some color discrepancy.
(This could mean that we can't really rely on the arm swatches for this product at least, although we greatly appreciate those.)


Here are a couple of FOTDs I managed to snap this week.
Both of them are with neutral eyes with Pink Rebellion, and this refreshing rosy color helped me not to look so tired all the time (I was, though!).


(Why, why did I take the job...?)


(I guess I can buy more lippies...yes, that makes sense.)



Thanks for looking.
Wishing everyone a great week! :)
