L.A. Colors Altered Beige Moisturizing Lip Gloss Review

Hi girls,

I have started writing again for IMBB after almost an year. I know it’s a long hiatus, but I was busy on the personal front. But now that I am back, I have so many pending reviews to write. Today’s review is on the LA Colours Moisturising Lip Gloss in Altered Beige. I am not much of a gloss person as I don’t like the low staying power or the constant touch ups. Anyway, let’s take a look at this gloss.

My Experience with L.A. Colors Moisturizing Lipgloss Altered Beige:

Packaging: The gloss comes in a transparent plastic tube with a black coloured cap. The elongated cap is cut out at the top in the same way as that of a lipstick bullet. The screw cap closes nicely, but if kept inside the bag, the gloss smears onto the mouth of the tube. For this reason, it has to be kept erect. The doe-foot applicator is also nice. Every time I dip it inside to take out the gloss, the right amount comes out on the sponge applicator. Since it is transparent, you can locate it easily in your vanity case and you would know how much is left.

Colour: True to its name, it is a beige-colored gloss. It will complement your lips if you have done heavy smokey eyes and you just want a hint of colour on the lips. Also, it is an universal shade. It can be worn any time during the day.  I have been wearing it to office, as well as to my evening get-together parties.  There is no shimmer, only a soft glossy tint.

Texture and Pigmentation: The gloss is quite creamy and the consistency is on the thicker side. It glides easily on to the lips. The company says it’s a moisturizing lip gloss and it actually has healed my chapped lips in these harsh winters. It does not accentuate the fine lines and keeps the lips hydrated. It does not smear or bleed without a lip liner. The pigmentation however could have been better, but considering that the gloss is leaning towards the MLBB shade, I am okay with the pigmentation it provides. My lips are not pigmented and I feel that it won’t cover pigmented lips.

Fragrance: Now, this is somewhat bothersome; it has kind of a chemical smell, which I don’t like. The smell stays on for half an hour or so. Sensitive noses would take offence to it.

Staying Power: The staying power of the gloss is 2 hours. The gloss can not survive meals, in fact after a meal, you would just be left with soft lips and no gloss. It transfers a bit onto the crockery. So, one has to careful while drinking water or tea when you have the gloss on your lips.

Summarising the pros and cons:

Pros of L.A. Colors Moisturizing Lipgloss Altered Beige:

  • True to its claims. Keeps the lips hydrated and moisturized.
  • The doe-foot applicator does a good job. Picks up the right amount of gloss and helps to spread the gloss evenly.
  • Does not bleed or smudge, can even be worn without a lip liner.
  • Could be an MLBB shade for many.

Cons of L.A. Colors Moisturizing Lipgloss Altered Beige:

  • I think it is not available in India.
  • The fragrance, I would rather call it smell. It is actually disturbing and it stays for half an hour or so.
  • Not for pigmented lips.

Would I Repurchase/Recommend L.A. Colors Moisturizing Lipgloss Altered Beige?

I would not repurchase as I anyway don’t like glosses. I would recommend it to ladies who are looking for lip balm-cum-lip gloss.
