I got Bourjois' #26 Framboise à Croquer lipstick the other day, and it’s the best I’ve ever used. It goes on feeling better than even the best lip balms, making my lips very happy. It’s also the most insane fuchsia ever, with three different colors of non-gritty sparkles, and very long lasting. It survives meals, hot tea, even smooches. It's addictive - I apply it several times a day because I can, not because I must.

The light scent and accurately color-keyed, nifty packaging are lovely bonuses. My Chanel lipstick is utterly disappointing compared to the Bourjois. The Bourjois feels much better, and is far longer-lasting.

The Europeans & British Islanders can get the best makeup! We Yankistanis have to search for folks who'll sell it to us at all, let alone at reasonable prices, and w/out insane shipping costs. Thank gawd for auctions: many sites charge the same for one of these as what I paid for two of them, including shipping!

Such a moisturizing, beautiful color! color isn't too bold at first, but can be layered for a more glam look. My lips don't dry out and i don't feel like I am even wearing lipstick or that I have to touch up all the time.

I have this in 2 shades - Rose Toubib and Rose Tendre. Between the two, I like Rose Toubib better. It is appears as a classic pink shade on my lips. And it is not drying as compared to MAC Satin Finish lipsticks and other lippies too. I also like that it does not have the chunky glitters that Rose Tendre has which can be really annoying. The packaging is really nice and girly. The cap may be a little flimsy being plastic but it still looks classy and not cheap. Since it is the sister company of Chanel, I think this is a cheaper alternative to their lipsticks and quality wise, it is really good. It leaves a nice rosy pink stain on my lips even after drinking and eating and other activities. It has a sheer gloss to it which is really lovely too. But a thin layer of gloss won't hurt to make it look prettier on the lips. I'm thinking of trying Rose Retabli next but my only friend would be eBay since this brand is not locally available in where I live. For a drugstore brand, you can't go wrong with this lipstick.

the colour that I have of this lipstick is rosé requinqué. it is a beautifull pink which makes my lips look healthy and a bit glossy too. I like the hydrating properties that it has. and I just love the colour. I have almost finished my lipstick but I would abselutely buy a new one!!

I have two shades, Rose Toubib and Rose Retabli. Both creamy and moisturizing. Good color pay off. You do need to have a good base for those to last a bit longer.

Both of those colors don't look the best on my yellow tones. I think they'll look better on people with pink tones.

I was excited to get more colour but after i knew this lipstick getting dry, i doubt it, but it was a great healthy lipstick!

Overall, very moisturizing lipstick I love the texture. But the colors are too bold for me. Cant find a color I can wear everyday. The pink is too cold for my warm skin. Still, I bought a red one to use for nights out.

I love this brand of Bourjois lipstick more than some of the other Bourgois lipsticks. I hate that the stores have taken most of the Bourjois makeup from their shelves though. Docteur Glamour lipstick is so smooth, moist, and creamy on me. The quality of this lipstick is based on the excellent ingredient choices, similar to other high end brands, only better to me. It is one of my grab and go lippies for sure, but now that it is so hard to come by, I am tending to save my favorite colors for those special days when I want to feel a little more ladylike on my errands, or the job. It has great staying power and does not bleed. I adore the light fragrance.

Although I always prefer the natural look, I still got one of #21 which is like a dense melting chocolate on my lips and builds up a dramatic look. It is not heavy at all but providing enough moist to reduce the lines on lips. The lovely scent and packaging r just like the bonus as I feel Im in love with this.

The shade I got is #17 Rose requinque. It is a nice, soft light-to-medium pink that appears cool-toned on my lips. But interestingly, it has a weird prominent purple tone on my lips when first applied but it takes a few minutes to settle. Pigmentation is not bad. This maybe more on the sheer side. The thing that disappoints me is that it isn't that moisturizing (or maybe I am just expecting too much LOL). Yet, it's not exactly drying and it's nice to have this on lips. I can't feel its moisturizing properties at all until it settles. This also adds shine to my lips. I think the rosy scent is not bad but I prefer unscented lip stuffs and luckily it's gone after a few minutes on lips!

I have this in "blouse blanche", and I love it. It's a transparent pinky-white that looks like a pale shimmer veil on my lips. The formula is very moisturising and comfortable. The only thing I don't like about it is that it's a bit too perfumed, but I can live with that.

I really like this lipstick. I bought it in the colour 11 Rose Retabli in Boots for £6.95 (I think). This colour is gorgeous, it is a peachy/pink/nude and looks very natural. The texture of this lipstick is very nice as it is creamy. It has very good pigmentation so the colour shows up well on your lips. This lipstick does not deliver any shine so if you want a glossy finish it may not be right for you but you can easily layer a clear gloss on the top and it looks stunning! The reason why I only gave this lipstick 4 lippies is because I find it a bit drying. When I first put on the lipstick it is lovely and creamy but after about 10 or so minutes I find it drying. Although this problem is easily fixed by putting on some lip balm underneath the lipstick and it is also even better if you put gloss on top of it. Apart from this lipstick being slightly drying it is a lovely lipstick and colour so I would repurchase.

I've never tried any other lip product quite like these - they're very creamy in texture without being at all glossy. I'd say the pigmentation is quite heavy; despite some reviewers comparing Docteur Glamour to tinted lipbalm I find the colour payoff to be much stronger.

They aren't *that* moisturising (personally I layer with Bourjois' Baume Ensoleille) but at the same time I don't find the formula drying, which is a big ++ as far as me and lipsticks are concerned. I have 'Rose Toubib', a warm pinkish red - this is a bit tricky me, I have to be careful what I use on my cheeks - and 'Rose Retabli', a lovely peachy nude that doesn't wash me out.

For other word geeks, I free translated 'toubib' - a French colloquialism for doctor, and 'retabli' = reestablished :)

I was somewhat disappointed with this lipstick. It tends to be a bit drying on me, so I usually layer it with lip balm. I do love the color though, I picked up 11 Rose retabli and it is a wonderful nude/peachy color. I probably won't repurchase, but then again, I hardly EVER repurchase any lip product because I experiment and am constantly changing the colors I wear. I'm always buying lipsticks and lip glosses. :)

Just wanted to add my 2 cents' worth. I think this is the drugstore lipstick I like the most of the ones I've tried, every other d/s lipstick I've tried so far has given me dry, cracked lips and made me LOOK like I had dry, cracked lips, even if they weren't dry and cracked when I put the lipstick on. I couldn't find a single d/s lipstick that wouldn't do that to me so in the end I had to buy some high-end lipsticks, but I didn't want to use expensive lipsticks for routine everyday wear. So I was glad to find this Bourjois lipstick, I've tried Rimmel, Maybelline, Wet'n Wild, Yves Rocher, The Body Shop........... Docteur Glamour not only doesn't make me look like I have dry, cracked lips, it also feels smooth and moisturising, like a lip balm. The colour I got, Fuchsia O Bobo, is also very pretty, hope they come out with more colours in this line.

Very impressive! I have #15 "Fuschia O Bobo" whatever that means! It is a pretty, cool-based shimmery pink. This lipstick glides on smoothly, feels very comfortable on the lips, and it even lasted through lunch! Most of the other Bourjois formulas seem draggy and dry to me, and they chip of or make my lips flake and peel, but this formula is delightfully comfy. I would definitely buy again, the lasting power is great, feels like nothing on the lips. The formula is supposed to be a treatment, containing mango and shea butter, which would account for the smooth feel and comfort. I hope that Bourjois makes this in more colors in the future.

i have 12 and 14. these are really really good quality lippies. they are really rich in colour for a dramatic look or you can dab for a day time, really versatile. mthey are classic matte but still moisturising. i dab a bit of 8 hour cream to add gloss sometimes. lovely stuff. i love the packaging too.

It is a lipstick enriched with mango and sheabutter and it provides hours of moisture in one application. It really does last. I bought no 15 Fuchsiaand I'm very pleased both with color and duration.
