Bourjois Paris Sweet Kiss Lipstick in Rose Allure-Review
Hi beauties!! I’m back again with yet another lipstick review! I was looking was a light everyday coral color lipstick when I came across with the Bourjois Paris Sweet Kiss Lipstick in Rose Allure (49). A lot of coral shades were haunting my mind while I was on my shopping spree, but wasn’t really coming across that one impressive particular color. When I saw this shade, I wasn’t sure if the color would look good on me, coz I really don’t wear nude or nearly nude shades.
Price:
INR 650
Net Wt.:
3 gm or 0.1 oz
Shelf Life:
3 years
The lipstick comes in a very attractive deep purple slightly transparent cover, with the brand name Bourjois etched on it. On one of the sides there is a little button which when is pulled down, the bullet tube comes out. Interesting! At the bottom of the case there is a round shade mark, which helps to locate the lipstick from a big stack! The color of the bullet looks like a combination of brick red on a slight orange hint to it. It looks like the color will be really opaque, however, it’s not.
My take on Bourjois Paris Sweet Kiss Lipstick in Rose Allure:
The color of the lipstick is very sheer, it has a very slight sheen to it but not very overwhelming. It is a very soft and pretty everyday nude coral shade, which is appropriate for office wear or when you don’t really want to wear any bold or darker shades. It is way too much sheer than I expected.
The lipstick is creamy but not buttery. It doesn’t bleed at all! It can be defined as a coral shade with a very little golden hint, which is visible under direct light.
Pigmentation:
Single swipe of the lipstick doesn’t really show much of a color, I always build it up to bring that coral shade on my lips. So yes! It requires multiple swipes to bring out the real color. However, due to multiple swipes the lipstick tends to settle in the fine lines. Remember to scrub your lips well before application! Though if one really wants to keep it simple, single swipe is good to go!
Staying Power:
It tends to fade away after 3-4 hours, since this being a very light color, disappears quickly. I would say the staying power is average for this lipstick.
I’m kind of Ok with this lipstick, not very happy, because of it very being sheer and I would have preferred a matte coral lipstick. The golden sheen of the lipstick is a little dislike for me, since the shine also tends to hide the color.
Pros of Bourjois Paris Sweet Kiss Lipstick in Rose Allure:
• Nice, attractive and unique packaging.
• Color good for everyday or office wear.
• Nice texture.
• Doesn’t bleed.
• Shelf life is great!
Cons of Bourjois Paris Sweet Kiss Lipstick in Rose Allure:
• Average staying power.
• Tends to settle in fine lines after multiple swipes.
• Price is too much for such sheer shade.
• Golden sheen can be a little annoying.
IMBB Rating:
3.5/5
Will I buy Bourjois Paris Sweet Kiss Lipstick in Rose Allure again?
No, I would not. I’m not much into lighter or sheer shades. I also don’t like lipsticks with pearly finish. Having said that, maybe I can give a try to the other darker shades in the range.
Hope you all like my review!! Will be back with more articles!! Stay happy and beautiful and enjoy life!!!! 😀

Shailly, its a lovely and subtle shade, liked it very much 🙂
Thank you Jomol!! 😀
very pretty swatches Shailly, liked the shade so much 🙂
Thank you!!
i think today is a lippy day..hehe nice swatches shaily but considering the cons i dont want to invest on it…
Hehehehe yea Neha!! 😀
It`s a wonderful shade , but you`re right – that at this price it should be more pigmented so that one can build it`s coverage and it`ll last long. 😛 I`d personally choose revlon colorburst lip butters over this.
Absolutely right!! Revlon’s peach shade is any day better than this one!! 😀
Very pretty shade but i really like the lip swatches pics.:)
Thanks a lot!!!! 😀
you’ve got such a pretty smile 🙂
