What the Company claims and Ingredients:
MRP: 25$ each
They have this pink and blingy super girly packaging. And the case is quite nice and sturdy..you hear a click when the caps are closed and are secured.
There are 8 shades available in these:
Aphrodite is described as a deep red. Its a crimson red shade which would suit most skin tones.
Cupid is described as a Deep Fuchsia/Pink tone shade. It looks more purply in the tube but comes out a nice lilac with fuchsia pink undertones..It leaves behind a pretty pink tint even after it wears off. For people who want to wear fuchsias or lilacs but not sure if they can carry such bold shades..this is a perfect start !
Oceanus is described as a light coral tone. But it actually is a nude peach shade. This shade is a little pale for my skin tone and washes me out..though not completely. This is something which would look good when paired with intense smokey eyes.
Voluptas is described as a Scarlet rich red shade. Its a true red shade. This is a total glam shade. Wearing this can instantly brighten your face. I loved this red !
Swatches:
Indoors |
In Sunlight |
Pros:
1. These are super duper pigmented..the swatches above are just 1 swipe.
2. Very creamy and moisturising.
3. These contain evening primrose oil, jojoba seed oil, castor oil and beeswax.
4. Have a faint vanilla smell.
5. Love the pinky blingy packaging.
6. These stay easily for 4-5 hours without eating or drinking and even leave a nice tint behind after they wear off.
7. Both the reds are very glam !
Cons:
1. Well this is not a con..but I would suggest using a lip brush with these especially with the reds as they are so pigmented…for even application.
2. Availability is an issue..though they ship worldwide. You can buy them here
Overall I love these…and I guess these lipsticks are surely a must try. Everyone should have atleast one of these.
