Bourjois Effet 3D lipgloss Review

So, I recently did a haul on this blog, and I mentioned that I bought Bourjois Effet 3D lipgloss. (I'm still not sure if it's shad 06 or 90!) It's a vibrant red colour and I love it!!



Durability: It says that it's supposed to last for 8 hours. I'd say it definitely lasts this long. The glossiness probably lasts until you eat, and after that, it leaves a bit of a sheen, but the pigmentation remains intact. Maybe by hour 6, it starts to fade in the corners of the mouth, so I might reapply. However it's hardly noticable and I would definitely be able to last 8 hours without topping up. I'm really happy with it.


Pigmentation: This gloss is really highly pigmented. It's almost as pigmented as a lipstick. I don't wear lipliner or lipstick under it because it turns out extremely dramatic, just a tad too much for me. It's great on it's own. These photos don't do the colour justice, I just got the lighting wrong I think!

Shine: Well, what can I say except that it's super glossy. :)



Brush: Hmm.. Okay, so you know the way on a lot of glosses, they have that typical lipgloss brush? I cant describe it really, except that its not really a brush, it's kind of a sponge or something? Anyway, on this gloss, there is an actual brush, which is really good for accuracy. However when I put the brush back into the tube, some of the hairs of the brush get slightly caught, which means that a few stick out the next time I take it out of the tube. This can be annoying because the bits that stick out may transfer product outside the lipline. It doesn't happen every time though, and it really wouldn't stop me buying other colours from the range.

Will I repurchase? Definitely!

Rating: 9/10

Please note: This isn't a review on Effet 3D Max. I couldn't find it in my local drugstore!

Have any of you tried this product? Do you like it?

Talk soon,
