Revlon Colorburst Lipstick Peach Review, Swatches

What the Company claims: Instant burst of rich, true color with a featherlight feel
-Elasticolor™ technology provides immediate color release and hugs lips with a burst of weightless color that feels like a second skin
-Available in 20 gorgeous shades, including 5 new shades!

EXPERT TIPS:

Apply directly to lips for beautiful, high impact color. Can be worn with or without lipliner.

Ingredients:

Shades available:

  • Lilac
  • Mauve
  • Peach
  • Soft Rose
  • Rosy Nude
  • True Red
  • Crimson
  • Plum
  • Raspberry
  • Blush
  • Baby Pink
  • Carnation
  • Fuchsia
  • Hazelnut
  • Chocolate
  • Coral
  • Soft Nude (Not available in India)

5 new shades introduced are…

  • Icy Nude

  • Petal
  • Pink Sugar
  • Candy Pink
  • Cherry Ice

I am not sure if these new shades are available in India yet..I have not seen them anywhere yet..

MRP: Rs.580/- for 3.7g

The shade I am reviewing is 075 Peach..its a true nude peach shade with some fine shimmer…which is not much visible but gives glossy effect to the lips.

Revlon Colorburst Lipsticks have this nice packaging..a rectangular shaped black case with criss cross patterns and the color of the shade it is on top. It has Revlon embossed on the lipstick bullet.

These are very creamy and moisturising and you can easily skip a lip balm with it. They have a slightly weird smell..but not too strong or bothering.

Now I had heard mixed reviews about the shade Peach…coz it washes out some..so I was not too sure..but I loved the shade so much that I could not resist getting it and I am glad I did…it does not wash me out at all..instead it gives a soft peachy sheen to lips..and in one swipe its quite a MLBB for me !

But as its a light shade..it would not cover pigmentation if you have pigmented lips..with one swipe it gives a soft peachy sheen and its quite buildable…and with 2-3 swipes it gives you perfect peachy lips. But the staying power of these is ok..it stays for 2-3 hours without eating or drinking..and lesser with it..but leaves a tint behind.

And how it looks on me…

Pros:

1. Very creamy and moisturising.

2. These are quite buildable…and darker shades are more pigmented.

3. I love the Peach shade..and would surely recommend it if you are around NC 35-37 or below…gives a nice peachy sheen to lips.

4. This does not settle into fine lines.

5. I liked the black case and packaging.

6. These are quite sturdy and easy to carry around.

7. Has a shelf life of 3 years.

8. Feels very light on lips..you would not even feel you are wearing a lipstick.

Cons:

1. Expensive for a lipstick but though these are very good in quality.

2. This shade would not show up on pigmented lips and would wash out people above NC 40.

3. 3.7g of quantity offered is quite less compared to other lipsticks which are normally 4 or 4.2g

Overall I quite like them and love the Peach shade in particular. I am eyeing Blush next..;)

NOTD- Black Crackling Nail Polish


Now the crackling nail paints have become quite a rage..I wanted to try the Black one..and when I first tried it…it was so much fun !!

As soon as you apply the crackling paint..it starts cracking and its so much fun just to watch that 😀

This Black Crackling Nail Polish is from Laushine..

What the Company claims:
100% Brand New
Color: Black
Capacity: 15ml
New Design, Quick Dry and Crackle, Easy to Use.

The right way to use it
1. Coated with base nail oil. (Base nail oil to be painted as to protect the nails)
2. Apply base color which can also be free to choose and part of the photo split out.
We recommend some Glitter Nail Polish.
3. Reapply background, wait about 1 minute to make it dry, and then cover Instant Cracking Nail Polish.
Thickness can be arbitrary. Direction can be freely left, before and oblique.
(P.S: The tips is not the law, crack naturally irregular looks better) The samples in advertising are obliquely brushed three times at intervals very thin and not painted the whole nails, so cracks are relatively large. If you want to have smaller cracks, Cracking Nail Polish can be coated thickly and painted a lot.
4. The magic crack pattern will appear after thoroughly dry.
Finally, The Coated Polishing Oil, Will Be Beautiful And Make It Perfect.

MRP: 5.50$

Shades available:

  • Black
  • White
  • Purple
  • Violet
  • Yellow
  • Pink
  • Orange
  • Green
  • Blue
  • Dark Red
  • Bright Red
Now the Black and White are easy choices as they go on many base colors..I have noticed that Black comes out more beautifully on Glitter bases..especially Gold..but removing a glitter nail paint is such a pain !
So I tried it on Maybelline Cremosa Sexy..a hot pink shade..The pink base and black crackled top..I like…it looks purply from afar..I am going to try the glittery golden as base next..
Now the directions say a thicker coat for smaller cracks..but actually it does not crack properly with more coats..a single coat works for me..
And be sure you use a clear top coat coz otherwise the black polish appears grey and dry..the actual effect comes out only with a top coat..
Even though it costs 5.50 $ the bottle is 15 ml and huge..and with just one coat, it is going to last me super long !
The consistency of the polish is very thin and it is super easy to use..the brush is stable and nice too..
Only the availability is an issue..You can buy it here
I am surely going to try White,Purple and other shades…so loving these !!
P.S: Product sent by site fore review but it has not affected my opinion.

Liz Earle Daily Eye Repair Review


What the Company claims: Use this triple-action cream every morning after moisturising to help reduce the appearance of fine lines. Light-reflective particles brighten dark under-eye shadows, while SPF10 mineral sunscreen helps protect this delicate area from UV light.

Apply every morning as part of your daily skincare routine

Naturally active ingredients include moisturising borage, protective antioxidants beta-carotene and natural source vitamin E plus soothing echinacea.

Suitable for all skin types

Directions: Gently blend a small amount of Daily Eye Repair under and around the eye area as well as on fine lines around the mouth and forehead.

Apply every morning over your moisturiser.

Ingredients: Aqua (water), Tocopheryl acetate, PEG-20 stearate, Tocopherol (vitamin E), Titanium dioxide, Borago officinalis (borage) seed oil, Cetearyl alcohol, Panthenol, Hexyl laurate, Octyldodecanol, Propylene glycol, Echinacea angustifolia (echinacea) extract, Sodium lactate, Beta-carotene, Lactic acid, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Butylparaben, Ethylparaben, Propylparaben, Isobutylparaben.

MRP: 7.25£ for 5ml and £13.75 for 10ml

It comes in a small tube form with a very small nozzle tip..which I think is nice..coz one gets the exact amount as required. Its a white colored lotion and has some light reflective particles which brighten the under eye area.

It keeps the skin moisturised and hydrated the whole day without leaving any greasiness…it brightens the under eyes considerably. I do not have puffy eyes but it has helped many in that too. Its has won many Beauty Awards and rightly so..

Pros:

1. Perfect tube packaging with a small nozzle.
2. Its travel friendly.
3. Has borage oil, beta carotene, Vitamin E and other ingredients which provide decent hydration to the under eye skin.
4. Keeps under eyes hydrated the whole day…and you would not feel any greasiness with it.
5. It does brighten the skin..with its light reflective particles and with daily use too.
6. Not overtly expensive..it can easily be compared to high end brands in quality.
7. Since its so light in texture..it can easily be used under a concealer.
8. Has sunscreen too…but SPF 10.

Cons:

1. It has to be used regularly..once you stop using..the effect goes away slowly.
2. Only available online. You can buy it here
3. It would not conceal as it claims..just brighten the under eyes more.

Overall I quite loved this under eye daily eye repair cream..but the only qualm is its to be used regularly..but that I guess I have noticed with most of the under eye creams..once you stop using it completely..it comes back to normal..so I do not blame this for that.

It is just about the correct time for India to also have a fashion week which is devoted to resort wear. We have been creating active lounge wear dresses & gowns as part of our resort wear lines over the years and have now given it a unique brand identity independent of our couture brand. We are extremely happy to be a part of the inaugural IRFW.”

Morning sun is a warm peachy orange shade…and it can be built up with more swipes. I like the classic black soft packaging. Its very sturdy. The bullet is shaped in a semi circular form.
