Bourjois Rouge Edition Aqua Laque Review

Hi! Welcome to another post. Today I have another liquid lipstick from the drugstore, to talk about. Bourjois Rouge Edition Aqua Laque in the shade 04 Viens Si Tu Roses.

Bourjois Rouge Aqua Laque Shade 04 Viens Si Tu Roses

Bourjois Rouge Edition AQUA Laque were launched after the Rouge Edition Velvet liquid lipsticks. I was eager to try these. There are eight shades available in the AQUA Laque line mostly Reds and Pinks. We can find a few soft nude shades and a few statement bright colors.

Product Description – The non-sticky formula glides on easily, creating a water-light sensation on the lips. And whats more, it contains Nymphaea extract to smooth and moisturize.

The packaging is identical to the Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet a cube like sturdy plastic tube only the lid of the Bourjois Rouge Edition AQUA is more pretty, metallic and shiny. The name of the lipstick is printed in Silver, which will never rub off  like some do after the continuous use. It is very nice and compact and feels luxurious and heavy. I like it when we can see the color of the lipstick, which makes it easy to pick the color you want. It has the regular doe foot applicator. The packaging is really pretty to have in our collection.

The consistency of Rouge Edition AQUA Laque is like water. I mean, it is like a normal liquid lipstick but a little more liquid-y. The application is easy. On application it feels like we are applying water on the lips. It feels cool just like water. However, we have to be careful when we are applying this lipstick on the lips. If we have more product on the applicator, it may spread and also go into our mouth.  The taste is not good. I always forget that and have tasted this a few, okay many times. :-). I would suggest to apply in thin layers. It is better to layer it a couple of times to get the full opacity. One swipe applies evenly and shiny with good pigmentation.

I want to mention that the smell of Rouge Edition AQUA Laque is like fake fruity and a little chemically. However, the smell fades away after it has dried. It takes 3-5 minutes to dry completely and feels like we have nothing on the lips. There is no sticky feeling at all. It does give a glossy shine to the lips as if we have applied a gloss on top of the lipstick. The wet look is more like oily wet without feeling oily. The shine fades away after an hour or so leaving behind the color which I like. These are the most comfortable and hydrating on the lips, that I have tried. It gives the lips juicy effect.

If you like glossy lips with some color this is for you. The lasting power is good, but we may need to re-apply after having some oily meal. However, it does transfer a little but does not take away the color. It fades away nicely without being patchy or crumbly. It is also very easy to re-apply.

The shade that I have is no.4 Viens si tu roses. It is a lighter mauve nude with some red to it.  On my medium warm skin tone it looks more of  a red than mauve nude shade. It is a beautiful shade nonetheless. I wear it sheer as well as opaque quite frequently. It does stain the lips by the end of the day, which I like.

Overall, I am loving Bourjois Rouge Edition AQUA Laque, since it is very comfortable to wear, glossy and shiny to look at, along with great pigmentation. This liquid lipstick feels hydrating. It is also reasonably priced, with brilliant wearable colors. I would love to get some more shades whenever I can. It makes me sad that Bourjois is not available in the Philippines, please correct me if I am wrong. :-). However I can always purchase it from Amazon when I visit US. Recently I visited the Boujois website but could not find these. Maybe they have discontinued, but I am not sure though. But it is available on Amazon, if you wish to purchase one.

Have you tried these Rouge Edition AQUA Laque from Bourjois? Or have you tried any of the Bourjois lipsticks? 🙂

    The shade looks lovely! I’ve tried similar ones from L’Oreal but they weren’t hydrating at all and they can apply a bit patchy, this one sounds much better xx

      Yes the shade is pretty and looks glossy when applied but the gloss fades away. I hope you like it. 🙂
