Red Fatale long-wearing Lip Gloss by L’Oreal. Blue-red lovers rejoice!

On Saturdays I rarely wear makeup as I’m usually doing ‘domestic engineering’, running errands and checking work e-mail (I know, really bad). Three things I absolutely do not go without are powder foundation, mascara and lip color.

Hence these Saturday Lip Love posts.

I’ll be posting every Saturday or so with the current lip product I’m currently in love with so much so that I want to share about it. This week we start with a brand I’ve been hanging with ever since high school, L’Oreal. I present for your consideration, L’Oreal’s Infallible 8 hour lip gloss in Red Fatale.

Red Fatale is a screaming blue-red cream finish lip gloss that L’Oreal claims lasts 8 hours. It is the kind of red reminiscent of 1940’s pin-up girls, Marilyn Monroe and Gwen Stefani. If you have cool to very cool undertones, this is definitely worth the $7 – $9 (or $2.49 at Ulta Beauty through the end of this month). It isn’t super sticky and dries down to a semi-tacky finish. If you are looking for a gorgeous color to punch up your lips while running out and about, this is definitely worth picking up.

And since I went to High School in the 80’s, enjoy listening to Cherrelle & Alexander O’Neal sing ‘Saturday Love’. Many times this song was playing either on the radio or through my Sony Walkman speakers as I slid on my lip color before cheerleading duty at football games or before a long day of work to make money to haul more L’Oreal makeup.
