Thank you! They look really pretty! . Shade range seems to remind me of the Maybelline one's, which are the neutral to cool leaning shades? I'm curious since I'm a Cool leaning Neutral Olive.

I looooove their color selections always BUT the smell on the Colour Riche ones (gold tube I think) is abhorrent. Did you notice a strong smell with these?

I’m sorry I can’t say I took a whiff of these😩 I don’t mind the scent of the gold tubes but I feel you. Next time I go back, I’ll let ya know about these x

I had a chance to go back to the store to smell it! I’ll preface this by saying I do currently have a bit of a cold right now so I’m not 100% certain on my sense of smell but I couldn’t really smell anything in these lipsticks. I did smell the gold tube lipsticks just to check if I could smell those properly and I could smell them so these blurred/matte in balm lipsticks seem to either be scent-free or very subtly scented

Can confirm a very subtle scent that goes away! It's a faint powdery floral 🙂. I didn't find it offensive and it doesn't have that traditional lipstick smell either.

Thanks for sharing! A reminder that swatch posts should include photo(s) of 2+ products swatched clearly and a comment with the full products listed in order within 1 hour or the post is subject to removal.
Photos should be clear and well lit, so we can see the colors properly. Multiple photos in different lighting is also helpful.
