It’s playtime for your pout with Lakmé Absolute Lip Pout
~Go bold, bright and playful with Lakme’s stunning new beauty statement this festive season~

Lending a playful twist to ‘sculpt’, Lakmé is all set to get you pouting this season, as it announces the launch of ‘Lakmé Absolute Lip Pout’ – the definitive beauty must have for Winter/Festive 2015. Inspired by all things playful, this launch will be brought to life by Lakmé’s new range of vivacious lip colors, presented in a crayon format, to bring out the playfulness in you.

This new range of six bright, matte lip-colors and ten crème shades will add the magic of high definition lips to your look. Arriving just in time for the festive season, Lakmé Absolute Lip Pouts in reds, oranges and pinks invite you to have lots of fun with your makeup while promising a high colour- pay-off and long-lasting pout in just one stroke!

Exploring the realm of fashion fantasy, the new Lakmé Lip Pouts will play muse to internationally acclaimed designer Gaurav Gupta at the Grand Finale of Lakmé Fashion Week – Winter/Festive 2015. With Gaurav infusing his fantastical energy into design, the Finale promises to be an exciting affair with imaginative sculpting as the dominant theme. Daniel Bauer, Lakmé makeup expert, will collaborate with Gaurav to craft stunning runway renditions of playful makeup looks on models with the Lakmé Absolute Lip Pout.


Speaking during the launch of this beauty statement, Purnima Lamba, Head – Innovations, Lakmé India said, “As an extension to the Sculpt statement we introduced last season, we now bring forth a playful assortment of lipsticks that are brighter and bolder than ever before. These high-definition matte and crème lip-colors are specially designed to let you play with your pout in an easy-to-use crayon format. Along with Gaurav Gupta’s style and the vision of Lakmé makeup experts, we look forward to presenting runway renditions of playful, experimental makeup at the Lakme Fashion Week Grand Finale.”

Speaking about Lakmé’s beauty statement of this season, Daniel Bauer, Lakmé makeup expert, said, “This season is going to be all about experimenting with bold colours and having fun with your look. I’ve had a chance to play with some Lakmé Absolute Lip Pout lipcolors and I’m already in love with the color payoff and the shades”


Gaurav Gupta on his association with Lakmé Fashion Week commented, “Every girl has a playful side to her and this is what I want to celebrate at the Lakmé grand finale. My theme is ‘imaginative sculpting’ and the colors inspired by Lakmé’s new range, Absolute Lip Pout. It’s a vibrant and bolder palette to play with and I’m looking forward to the best ever finale show.”

With its world-class runway showcase and backstage expertise, Lakmé brings the best of fashion and beauty to the forefront every season. The brand along with Gaurav Gupta, will once again reinvent the finale stage at the most anticipated show on 30th August at the Lakmé Fashion Week Winter/Festive 2015.

With 6 matte and 10 creme shades and in crayon form, it looks interesting. These are priced at Rs.650/- which is pretty decent. I am really looking forward to the matte shades coz I absolutely love the Lakme Absolute Sculpt High Definition Matte Lipsticks. Victorian Rose and Pink Fantasy look the most interesting to me.

July 2015 Favourites

Hi guys,

It’s been a long time that I did a favourites post and since I am doing YouTube videos now and was doing a July Favourites video, I thought of doing a post too along with.

Here are some of the products I have been loving a lot in July:

1. Kerastase Elixir Ultime Beautifying Oil Cream

It is so light in texture, lighter than the Kerastase Elixir Ultime Oil and you just need a pea sized amount of it. It controls most of my frizz and also gives the hair a nice shine. (Full Review HERE)

2. The Body Shop Satsuma Body Sorbet

This one I reviewed just yesterday, I had been using this a lot in summers too. I absolutely love the citrus burst and the light feel of it when I don’t want heavy, rich moisturizers on my body in this hot, humid climate. (Full Review HERE)

3. Za Perfect Fit Liquid Foundation

Again something water based and very light in texture. It lets your skin breathe and you won’t even realize you are wearing a foundation and still get even skin tone and light coverage, plus a nice illuminating finish. (Full Review HERE)

4. Maybelline The Colossal Liner

Maybelline HyperSharp liner was my all time favourite, untill Maybelline India launched the new Maybelline The Colossal Liner. I absolutely love the tip and how it gives a perfect winged line and precise control. I have been using only this since the past 2-3 months and sometimes gel liners when I have a little more time. (Full Review HERE)

5. Maybelline ColorShow Lipsticks

Maybelline’s new ColorShow Lipsticks are just perfect and a total value for money. At Rs.299/- for 3.9g and 32 shades ranging from pinks to reds to oranges and browns, these are apt for daily wear for office or college or just about anywhere. I love the shade Cherry Crush followed by Red Rush. Red Rush is the shade I am wearing here in the video. I am looking forward to try the shade Midnight Pink too. (Review and Swatches HERE)

6. Sudio Sweden Klang Earphones

And last but not the least, my new Sudio Sweden Klang white and gold earphones. I forgot to include them in the video, but these are something I have been hooked on to from the past 7-8 days and would be hooked on to for a long time to come 😀 These are absolutely fantastic, the sound quality is beyond amazing. Klang works best for iPhone (does work on my Android equally well) and has one cord longer than the other, and the longer one goes behind your neck for the stay-in-ear function. The cords are made of very good quality too and yes, these never get entangled ever 🙂

Guarantee Card, 4 sizes of pods and a clipper, Leather Case, Owner’s Manual

It comes with a guarantee card, leather case for storage, 4 different sizes of pods and a clipper. One can adjust the sound and mic with the three buttons on the cord. Sudio earphones are total value for money and come in a range of classy colors. I love this white and gold combination the most, followed by black.

New Maybelline ColorShow Lipsticks Review,Swatches

What the Company claims: With our new Color Show Lip Colors, we bring the catwalk colors to the sidewalk, just for you. The all new Maybelline Color Show Lip Color range has 32 vibrant moisture rich shades that enable you to express yourself every day. We give a shade for your every mood; now show your independence with reds, power with mauves, playful side with pinks & warmth with browns. These 32 intense colors suit all Indian skin tones and we’re absolutely sure you’re going to love them!

The main four color families are:
– Classis Reds (7 shades)
– Marvellous Mauves (10 shades)
– Provocative Pinks (6 shades)
– Delicious Browns (9 shades)

Why you will love this new lip color range? Because,
– They give all day hydration.
– They are heat resistant
– They guarantee color integrity.
– They do not fade even in extreme heat and humidity.
– They have a non-sticky, soft texture and hence are easy to glide.

The Color Show Lip Colors provide you with a range of shades which have the right amount of moisture, a sweet fragrance and stay true without drying up your lips just for Rs. 299/-

MRP: Rs.299/- for 3.9g

I am not sure if there are 27 shades or 32 shades, or maybe they have added 5 new shades.

Here are the 27 shades..

Maybelline’s Color Show range, whether it be nail paints or lipsticks, is a big hit! Coz they offer so many shades and are so economical plus they offer quality too!

Today I am reviewing the shades Fuchsia Flare,Orange Icon, Red Rush and Cherry Crush.

Fuchsia Flare is from the Pink family, Orange Icon is from the Brown family and Red Rush and Cherry Crush from the Red family.

To start with the packaging, they come in a black packaging with a thin transparent strip in between which denotes which color family the shade belongs to, isn’t that cool and makes it easy to identify too unless of course if you have more shades from the same color family.

They have a nice, sweet candy smell which I love. The colors are super pigmented and glide on like butter. All the shades are true to its names. They have a creme finish, so neither glossy nor matte.

L-R: Fuchsia Flare,Orange Icon,Red Rush,Cherry Crush
Clockwise from left: Fuchsia Flare,Orange Icon,Red Rush,Cherry Crush

These swatches are just 2 light swipes.

L-R: Fuchsia Flare,Orange Icon,Red Rush,Cherry Crush

They stay on for 3-4 hours and leave behind a stain,especially the darker colors. They can survive light snacks and drinks but not full meal. Also these are not transfer proof.

Here are these on moi..

Clockwise from left: Fuchsia Flare,Orange Icon,Red Rush,Cherry Crush

Fuchsia Flare is a true blue based fuchsia pink ( no hint of neon)

Orange Icon is a light orange color. It reminds of those orange wedges shaped sweets we used to get as kids and also orange gola 😀 It is slightly on the sheer side and goes a bit patchy.

Red Rush is a deep warm red which makes you teeth look whiter. It is the most pigmented of the lot.

Cherry Crush is a super pretty carrot pink..my favourite of the lot.

Overall, I would say these are perfect in terms of pricing,quality,quantity,pigmentation, shades available. I have no cons for these, the staying power could have been better but then no creme finish lipsticks stay longer than that anyway. Highly recommended!!

Oriflame The One Colour Unlimited Lipsticks Review,Swatches

What the Company claims:

MRP: Rs.499/-  for 1.7g

Shades Available:8

  • Violet Extreme
  • Pink Unlimited
  • Mocha Intensity
  • Fuchsia Excess
  • Forever Plum
  • Endless Red
  • Always Cranberry
  • Absolute Blush

I am reviewing the shades Fuchsia Excess and Endless Red today.

It comes in a sleek and slender grey and black packaging..only disadvantage of this packaging is you always get lipstick on the edges when you swivel it up and down. Also, this type of packaging mostly has less qty of lipstick like this one has only 1.7g

These are very moisturising, you don’t need any lip balm of any sort with these. They have sheer to medium coverage and you will need 2-3 swipes for opaque coverage especially for pigmented lips.

These are very glossy and shiny and mostly all the shades are pink and plum based, so I assume this range is targeted more towards the younger category.

It stays for 2-3 hours and I am a bit disappointed with the staying power,reading the 10 hour claim, but very easy to use and touch up. It does not bleed or stain teeth and you can quickly apply it anywhere.

Fuchsia Excess is a pretty blue based fuchsia pink,no neon here,pure fuchsia pink

Endless Red is a wearable,not too bright, light apple red with some fine shimmer

Top- Fuchsia Excess, Bottom- Endless Red

Here is it on me..

Left- Fuchsia Excess, Right- Endless Red

Overall I would say these are nice lipsticks to try,very moisturising,glossy and comes in some lovely shades. If you are looking for something matte or long staying, these are not meant for you. Also, Oriflame lipsticks are mostly on discounts, so do keep a check on the catalog and buy them on discount as they are a bit expensive at Rs.499/- for the quantity of 1.7g

Maybelline Rebel Bouquet Lipstick REB04 Review, Swatches

So, after reviewing the shades REB01 and REB05 HERE, here is another shade.

What the Company claims: Color Sensational presents the NEW Rebel Bouquet collection. A burst of rebellious colour!

Why You’ll Love It
Super-saturated pigments give fresh-picked pastels a bright kick. Sumptuous feel and enriched with honey nectar. 6 vivacious shades.

MRP: Rs.450/- for 3.9g

Shades Available: 6 

The packaging is same as the Colorsensational one with a transparent red cap. It is super creamy and soft in texture, and gives a glossy finish. Though it does not glide on easily onto lips, you need to work carefully.

It is not transfer proof and stays for around 3-4 hours but does not survive eating proper lunch, etc. Very moisturising and you do not need any separate lip balm underneath.

Once settled, the lipstick stays put and the glossiness reduces a bit.

While REB01 was an apple red and REB05 a peachy coral, this shade REB04 is kind of a mix. Its a reddish coral shade.

I love this shade! Not something unique, but somehow love how it brightens my face.

Here is it on me..

Overall, I would say the new Maybelline Rebel Bouquet Lipsticks are bright,glossy finish lipsticks that stay for a longer time than usual glossy lipsticks. Comes in 6 pretty red, peach and coral shades. Definitely worth a try. Recommended.

FOTD: Golden Eyes (Indian Ethnic Look)

Hi guys,

I attended a friend’s engagement today and felt like getting decked up a bit, so did some makeup and went with golden eyes.

I wore this pretty orange and pink lace anarkali with golden borders, it’s one of my favourites. So I went with golden and orange tones overall.

For the base, I used the L’Oreal Paris Infallible Reno Liquid Foundation, trying this out currently. Review coming up soon.

I received this pretty eyeshadow quad from May Fab Bag (Review coming next) called Be a Bombshell in Madrid which is the perfect blend of gold,bronze and orange, so I used only this.

I used the beige shade all over my eyes till the lid, the golden shade on the lids and the dark brown on the outer half and crease. For the lower lids, I went with the orangey shade in the inner half and the dark brown on the outer half.

Lined my eyes with the Maybelline Colossal Liner and used the Essence Lash Princess Volume Mascara. For the waterline, I used the L’Oreal Paris Sapphire Blue Gel Liner which looks almost black.

And on lips, I used the Maybelline Rebel Bouquet Lipstick in REB04.

I skipped any blush or highlighter since the face was bright enough. I don’t generally use powders overall as I like dewy finish. But for T-zone, it becomes important as I have combination skin.

I had to rush and did not have much time to find products and hence, finished this quickly with whatever products handy 🙂

I hope you liked the look. It is quite simple and basic, do let me know in the comments below 🙂

New Elle 18 Color Boost Lipsticks Review,Swatches

What the Company claims: Elle 18 has made things simpler this summer for all the girls out there with their new range of Color boost lipsticks. It comes in 10 lovely shades including Pinks, Reds and Oranges. These lipsticks are enriched with a special cocoa-butter formula that keeps your lips soft and your colour intact for upto 6 hours. Well, nothing arrests the beholder’s attention more than a glamourous pout.

MRP: Rs.150/-

Shades Available: 10

I am reviewing 7 of them today. Elle 18 Color Boost Lipsticks come in a pretty black and pink girlie packaging, like it always has been. Check out the previous range HERE

The lipsticks have an orange center which is their lip balm at the core, that keeps the lipstick moisturising. I like how hydrating and light they feel on the lips. Surprisingly, they are very,very pigmented. I just couldn’t get rid of the swatches from the hand even after washing thrice with a cleanser and had to use a good makeup remover to finally remove them.

Of course. they don’t stay for 6 hours as claimed, but the staying power is better than the previous Color Pop Lipsticks.The lighter shades stay for around 2.5-3 hours and the darker ones stay for around 3.5-4 hours, without and eating that is.

They are not transfer proof, but even after they wear off, the brighter shades leave a nice tint behind.

Talking of the packaging, it is very,very flimsy. One lipstick which I loved the most, Miss Pink  was already broken from the bullet before I received them. So, these are not very travel friendly too and should be carried along with care.

But as you guys know, the brand Elle 18 is all about affordability. These babies are very economical at 150 bucks and all the 10 new shades are super pretty and bright. Perfect for summers. Highly recommend getting 1-2 of these!

Here are the shades:

07 Hollywood Pink: Reddish Pink with silver shimmer

10 Superlicious Red : Warm Red with a hint of coral

08 Red Passion: Warm Orange Red

09 Hyper Orange: Warm Bright Peach

01 Miss Pink: Soft Fuchsia Pink

05 Nude Coral: MLBB Everyday nude shade with a hint of coral

06 Blonde Pink: Rosey Pink Brown with silver shimmer

And on moi..

I invested a lot of time in swatching, editing, etc. :/ I hope you guys like these pics and it is helpful for you to decide the shades, if in case you are buying it online or even shortlisting shades, if you are buying it from the store.

My favourite shades are Superlicious Red, Red Passion and Miss Pink, followed by Blonde Pink.

Essence XXXL Long Lasting Lip Gloss & Metal Glam Eyeshadow Review,Swatches

Hi guys,

This review is long pending. Essence Cosmetics is a German brand and slowly it expanded and reached the other parts of Europe and US. Now finally, we have Essence Cosmetics in India!

I am reviewing the Essence Metal Glam Eyeshadow in 19 Sparkling Orchids and the Essence XXXL Long Lasting Lip Gloss in 07 Silky Red

What the Company claims: essence XXXL longlasting Lipgloss matt effect- the velvety-matt, long-lasting lip gloss.

matt = a must! if you love this lip trend, the velvety-matt, long-lasting lipglosses are ideal for you! the light, mousse-like texture lasts on your lips for several hours without drying them out. particularly easy to apply thanks to the flat applicator.

MRP: Rs.279/- for 4.5ml

Shades Available: Velvet Rose, Soft Nude, Silky Red, Love Pink, Coral Delight, Big Night Out, Very Berry, Baby Doll’s Favourite

essence Metal Glam eye-shadows, with a soft texture, glide smoothly onto your eyes, giving extremely high coverage and a splendid metallic effect, resulting in a stunning outcome with a single sweep of the brush. Pocket-friendly, in both connotations of the word, these eye-shadows are available for just Rs. 185 and come in cute pocket sizes that fit easily in bags and purses, guaranteeing that you never have a make-up emergency!

Shades Available:
1. Sparkling Orchids – silver purple
2. Lucky Grasshopper – mossy green
3. Are you Grey? – greyish silver
4. Choco-Chic – warm, chocolatey brown
5. Hello Goldie! – pale gold
6. Coffee to Glow – mocha bronze
7. Golden Up! – white gold

MRP: Rs.185/- for 2.7g

Starting with the eyeshadow, it comes in a round plastic see-through packaging. Easy to locate if you have more colors. The quantity of 2.7g is quite huge.

The eyeshadow has a glitter overspray, so as and when you swatch it once, it looks completely different. Also, the product seems quite hard on top, but it feels a bit creamy inside, once the overspray is gone. When you try and use this eyeshadow with brushes or fingers, you will only get a hint of lilac with lots of silver shimmer.

The only way you can use this eyeshadow is wet. It is just not possible to use this dry, as you will not get any color, so for dry use, its a fail and would not recommend it. If you don’t mind using it wet, go ahead with the Metal Glam eyeshadows. Pretty affordable, lots of shades to choose from.

Coming to the XXXL Long Lasting Lip Gloss, it is more like a matte lip cream. It comes in a gloss tube and a flat tip applicator.

I love how creamy and moisturising it is, and once settled, it gives a matte finish, not completely dry matte though. It is very comfortable and light on the lips and stays for 3-4 hours without eating or drinking. It does not transfer much once settled, and can be easily reapplied.

T- Eyeshadow, B- Lipgloss

Here is it on me..

I love the shade Silky Red, a very wearable true red with very minute and fine golden shimmer, which is hardly visible. And also it instantly brightens the face. At 279 bucks, these are quite good and I totally recommend them. I don’t mind getting more colors, I think I would be trying out the Velvet Rose, Love Pink and Very Berry.

Red Apple Lipstick Petal Pusher, Red 101 Review,Swatches

What the Company claims: Gluten Free, Paraben Free Lipstick That’s So Creamy, So Fresh, So Moisturizing…You’ll Freak Out If You Lose It

Red Apple Lipstick™ is independently lab-tested gluten free. Our formula is designed this way, and is the world’s best gluten free lipstick. Why is this important? A large portion of our population has an intolerance to gluten, meaning that any trace of gluten entering their system can cause undesirable symptoms.

Red Apple Lipstick™ is a mineral based lipstick that is enriched with a gluten free source of Vitamin E. It is non-toxic, gluten free and paraben free. Red Apple Lipstick™ is THE safe lipstick! Our lipsticks are designed to nourish and moisturize your lips while staying put.

Available in 43 shades.

MRP: $23.50 for 4.5g each

Red! 101: Red!™ by Red Apple Lipstick™ is our brightest red! This red was designed for those who are truly brave enough to wear red lipstick. Not for the faint of heart, Red!™ turns heads, gets attention and flutters hearts.

Red!™ has a subtle vanilla scent, giving you a perfectly kissable pout with a wonderful fragrance and taste. You won’t be disappointed in this bright red lipstick!

Red! is our signature blue-based red lipstick. This color is absolutely fabulous and serves up glamour without fail!
We’ve seen this color on women of all ages, skin tones and walks of life; it really becomes the rockstar of any makeup bag!

Petal Pusher: This light version of a hot pink is incredibly versatile. It can be worn super bold with two coats. You can tone it down for a perfect bright pink with only one coat.

Petal Pusher is the perfect pink – it’s soft hot pink hue will brighten any face. It’s versatility can go from day to night with one extra swipe! That’s worth smiling for!

Gluten, Soy, and Paraben Free. This formula does contain almond oil which gives it a slick and moisturizing feel.

You were looking for the hottest hot pink…and HERE it is! Combining all the most brilliant of bright pink hues: fuchsia, magenta, and hot pink! Bright – bold – fun…just like YOU!! Petal Pusher is an absolute must-have!

I love their simple black packaging. The colours are bright and pigmented. The lipsticks are buttery soft, especially Petal Pusher. It actually broke the time I tried swatching it :/ Maybe coz of the summer heat and travel it went through 😀

It goes on smooth and it doesn’t feel heavy at all. It does not accentuate the lines on the lips and keeps the lips moisturized and hydrated too.

Petal Pusher is a nice,soft rosy pink. Though its cool-toned, its not like Barbie pink and does not wash me out. I quite like this shade, I wish it did not break 🙁

Red! 101 is their signature red. A true red that would work for all skin tones. Its bright and bold, but not in your face or look I am wearing red.

Both the lipsticks are quite pigmented. Red stays on for a good 5-6 hours while the Petal Pusher stays on for 3-4 hours since it is very creamy.

 

Here is it on me..

Only downside would be the price and the availability. But if you are someone who can’t deal with lipsticks or the lips get very dry, this vegan,gluten free, safe and all natural lipsticks are made for you. Purest form of lipsticks with no chemicals at all.
