L’Oreal Be Cheerful Brilliant Signature Shiny Lip Stain ($11.99 for 0.21 oz.) is a darker plum pink with cooler undertones and a warmer red stain, so once applied and “set” it looked warmer overall. It had a fine golden bead throughout the glossy cream colored finish.

formula overview

The formula is said to have a “bold color impact” with a “glossy, high-shine finish” and has the “lasting hold” of a lip stain. When they’re good, they’re good: pigmented, high-gloss, and comfortable to wear without being too sticky and not prone to fraying.
It was very similar to YSL’s Glossy Stains and I had similar problems applying some of the lighter shades in the YSL range as I did with this one. One of the issues was that the tinting strength of the formula really interfered with even the lighter pigments, resulting in an uneven look – like I’d applied a milky gloss over a lip stain.
They had a smooth, light consistency that was spreadable as it was initially thin and more watery, and as it “set” it developed a thicker, almost gel-like feel that was still light and comfortable to wear, but with a slight stickiness helped hold it in place over time.
These left heavy, reddish stains (they didn’t vary much, only warmer/cooler ones turning red) after they wore out, which took about five to six hours total.
They had a powdery, floral scent but no discernible taste.

L’Oreal Be Successful Brilliant Signature Shiny Lip Stain ($11.99 for 0.21 oz) is a brighter rose-pink with cool undertones and a slightly glossy cream finish. I had trouble with this even application as it seemed like the stain was darker and warmer so initially it conflicted with the pink color of the product.
