Yes, it’s another “goes on clear, turns into the perfect shade for you upon contact with the skin” product, folks! This one is from Bourjois, and it’s their Rose Exclusif lipgloss: a clear gloss which reacts with the pH of your lips to turn into the perfect shade of pink.
Now, I must admit to a strange fascination with these products, perhaps because they remind me of my school days, when people always seemed to be bringing in “mood rings” and other items that claimed to change colour according to your personality. I’ve never quite trusted them, though, which is why, although I’ve tried out Smashbox’s ‘O’ range at the counter, I’ve never actually purchased anything that claims to change colour on impact.
Could this be the product to change my mind? I think I’d probably want to test it first, to see just what shade of pink it turned into on me, but if you can’t wait then you can click here to buy it from ASOS.





Ages ago I tried the colour-changing Barry M one that looked green on the actual stick. Not a success, for me, ended up quite a garish pink, fortunately Barry M is quite a cheap brand. I’m not sure I’d shell out £7 for this until I could try it in person.
I tried this in boots last week. I normally don’t try tester products any where near my face but because of the product I had to put it on my lips to see if if worked.
The gloss goes on pale pink and got so severe on my lips I looked like Barbie! My friend also tried it because we wanted to see what colour her lips would turn but surprise surprise it was the exact same shade!
I have no doubts that the shade gets pinker as time develops but I don’t think it’s is unique to skin tone as they claim! It certainly didn’t suit my unique PH or whatever they’re claiming!
