L'Oreal Extraordinaire by Colour Riche in Nude Ballet

A few months back I shared swatches of three shades from L'Oreal's Extraordinaire by Colour Riche line, and today I'm back with the shade Nude Ballet*! I really love this line of gloss stains, so I was excited to try out a more muted shade from this line. 

"Lustered. Magnified. Dramatic. Lips become extraordinary with new Extraordinaire by Colour Riche™. The new vision of lip colour features luxurious micro-oils that infuse each pigment for ultimate colour richness." - L'Oreal

I really love the packaging of L'Oreal's Extraordinaire by Colour Riche. The gold tubes are very shiny, and they will pick up finger print marks quite easily. The labels on the bottom of the tubes are colour-coded to the product inside - a small detail that I absolutely love. The applicator is a flattened doe foot than hugs my lips nicely and applies an even amount of colour. There's a fruity scent to this formula that I really like, but I know that it won't be to everyone's liking.

Nude Ballet is a muted neutral colour with slight orange undertones. On my lips, this lip gloss is semi sheer, which I can definitely appreciate. I think that if this shade was super opaque then it would wash me out. Nude Ballet is a great lip colour to pair with a bold eye and coral cheek.

The formula of L'Oreal's Extraordinaire by Colour Riche is fairly thick, creamy, and very comfortable to wear. There are micro oils in the formula, which work to nourish and hydrate your lips. This formula isn't sticky at all. I can get about 5 hours of wear from this formula, but all three shades also leave behind a beautiful stain. So, even after the gloss wears off, my lips are left with a nice, even stain for an additional few hours.

Have you tried any shade's from L'Oreal's Extraordinaire by Colour Riche line? I think that this is a fabulous drugstore line, and I'm loving all 4 shades that I've tried so far! :)
