TESTY: La Metier de Beaute Kaleidoscope lipkit

I wasn't sure on La Metier de Beaute initially. The weird name, the price, the niche-ness of it all. It made me want to rebel against it. But they're a great little brand, for the most part, I’m won over!


These beautiful glosses are enriched with vitamins and pretty long-wearing. Though the colours in this kit are would suit any skin tone, they are pretty subtle in terms of pigment. I’m a real impact make up girl, so they were far too sheer for me.

You're supposed to blend them to make your perfect shade, which is a nice sentiment. I guess if you're going to spend £55 on lipgloss you can afford to sit somewhere elegant whilst you mix your own lipgloss shade. For me there has to be an element of practicality and I'd find it a real ball-ache to sit mixing my own lip shade and carry around this big cumbersome set of glosses. Pretty, but unpractical. Never thought I’d say that being the queen of faff and pomp, but there you have it. Cinderella had to grow up sometime right?
