It's finally spring time, so I dug out my L'oreal balms from last years spring collection "Versailles Romance". In the collection they had 6 limited lip balms and nail polishes. I managed to get my hands on 4 of the balm shades through eBay, since the collection wasn't available where I live.
The colors I have are (L to R) 945 Sundays by the Seine, 947 Legally Regal, 948 Laze in the maze and 949 Bijoux bijoux bijoux! All names are French inspired or connected to Chateau de Versailles, which is a beautiful royal castle in France and definitely worth a look, if you are ever in the area!
The Seine is a river running in Paris in northern France. In Paris you will find Versailles the regal castle, known for it's maze garden among other things. Bijoux means jewellery which is again connected to the castle.
On the bottom we have the Sundays by the Seine, this shade only leaves a blue-ish sheen, and isn't really that noticeable on the lips. Next one up is Legally Regal which is a pretty purple shade, with good color payoff. The color is build-able with this shade, and it can be sheered out for those who are not brave enough to sport a purple lip. Second to the top is Laze in the maze, a beautiful coral color that is also build-able. A perfect spring color! Lastly we have Bijoux bijoux bijoix! a pale yellow shade with little to no color payoff. The shade doesn't really leave any hint of yellow on the lips what so ever. All colors are swiped twice in the above picture.
