Faces Go Chic Lipgloss Sheer Coral Review, Swatches

Faces Go Chic Lipgloss 14 Sheer Coral Review, Swatches

What the Company claims: Light, glossy lip tint.
A sponge tip applicator for easy and quick application, with several shades to choose from.
With soothing Vitamin E for extra moisture.

MRP: Rs.199/- for 7.5ml

Available in 15 shades..

Ingredients:

It is the most economical lip gloss offering the most qty..just like the Go Chic Lipsticks..see review HERE

I am loving the Go Chic range..

They come in a normal sleek packaging with the sponge slant applicator..

These are quite sheer and not at all sticky..but very moisturising..can replace lip balms too..

Sheer Coral is a sheer true peachy coral..no shimmer or sparkle..almost colorless on lips..stays for one-two hours without eating or drinking.

Only issue is it would not cover pigmented lips as they are quite sheer and almost colorless with just a hint of color and glossiness..

Here it is on me..

Pros:

1. Super moisturising…coz of the castor oil and beeswax.
2. Very economical.
3. Non sticky.
4. 15 shades to choose from.
5. Easy to use packaging..and travel friendly.

Cons:

1. Very sheer..would not cover pigmented lips.
2. Staying power is less..as with all non sticky lip glosses.

Overall I quite like these..I love the price and qty..and the shades to choose from..I wish they were tad more pigmented..

This is a part of the new shades launched recently..though they have kept the price same at Rs. 199/- and reduced the qty from 12ml to 9ml..I am not sure if its only for the new shades..coz the old shades are still available online as 12ml.

What they claim is all true..this is indeed shiny,long lasting, chip resistant and has an easy to use flat brush..And I love that these are available in so many colors..

Pastel Moov is a nude mauve shade..one of those elegant nude shades which would not blend in with your hands or make them look dull..but still look classy and understated..this one is perfect for your work and formal wear..

Pros:

1. Does what it claims.
2. Dries soon..and goes smooth and not streaky, the flat brush makes it all the more easy.
3. Stays for a good whole week without chipping.
4. Available in many different shades.
5. The shade Pastel Moov is one of those ‘perfect for work’ shades !

Cons:

1. These are not DBP, Toluene and Formaldehyde free.
2. They reduced the qty by 3ml in the new shades keeping the price same.
3. Faces is not available everywhere easily.

Overall I do like the shade..but buying 7ml at Rs. 99/- is what I would prefer coz I keep trying different colors..and would not finish up 12ml or 9ml of one particular shade..I love Pastel Moov when I am in the mood of a nudish shade..if you searching for a nail paint for your work or are not much into brights, then do check this out..

Faces Glam On Lip Gloss Review, Swatches

Faces Glam On Lip Gloss Cupcake Review, Swatches



What the Company claims: Get the color and vanilla flavour on your lips!

Enriched with Vitamin E, it is engrossed with high moisturizing emollient that apart from adding diva factor to your personality nurtures your lips. It is easy to apply and leaves a trail of high shine lip gloss, so no need to add on shine. Moreover it leaves your lips fragrant with a slight flavour of vanilla, which all the way makes them more kissable.

MRP: Rs. 449/- for 5.6ml

Shades Available:

  • Bare It All Pin
  • Charity
  • Chilled Cherry
  • Coral Fusion
  • Crystal Clear
  • Cupcake
  • Icicles
  • Innocence
  • Luxe
  • Maple Fudge
  • Tickled Pink

I am reviewing the shade 051 Cupcake..its a sheer baby pink gloss with some silver shimmer..it has a sweet vanilla smell..which I loved..but no taste..

Its a long sleek normal lip gloss packaging..and has a slanted applicator..its non sticky and quite moisturising…stays on for 2-3 hours which is good enough for a lip gloss..
Here is how it looks on me..

Pros:

1. Has a nice vanilla smell.
2. Quite moisturising.
3. Many shades to choose from.
4. Stays for a good 2-3 hours.
5. Non sticky.
6. 5.6 ml is a huge quantity for a lip gloss.

Cons:

1. Expensive. I know Revlon Colorburst are priced the same..but those are much more pigmented and better.
2. Availability is an issue.

Overall these are decent lip glosses..if they were priced at around 300-350..it would have been better. I quite like the vanilla smell…the shade Cupcake is sheer baby pink..and can be used to top up all lipsticks..and can even be used alone..perfect to be paired with smokey eyes.

  • 501- Gothica
Now you must have known by the names that this range does not have normal everyday shades..but all bright and unique ones like transparent barely there, reds, purples, violets, lavender, grape, Gothic Black,etc..

This range is truly different.. I liked a few like Sugar Rose or Peach..this Barely There shade is a clear lip balm..This works more as a base to use underneath lipsticks or as a gloss to top lipsticks or matte lip creams with..

Its quite moisturising as a lip balm..the silver packaging is nice too..since this is devoid of any color..I don’t know about the staying power,etc

Overall its nice as a lip balm..but I would not advice spending 500 bucks for a clear lip balm.

Faces Glam On Duo Eye Shadow Review, Swatches

Faces Glam On Duo Eye Shadow 14 Smoky Look Review, Swatches



What the Company claims: Advanced long-wear with powdery texture and crease-proof formula, is all what it takes to define Faces Glam On duo Eye Shadow. Designed as two lovely pools of color and packed along with two-sided applicator, it is easy to apply and can easily blend along with other colors.

Leaves you with those enchantingly dreamy eyes!



MRP: Rs. 399/- for 4g

Ingredients: Talc, Mica, Kaolin, Zinc Stearate, Methyl Paraben, Bismuth, Oxy Chloride, Phenyl Trimethicone

Shades available:

  • 12- Forest Mauve
  • 14- Smoky Look
  • 11- Pink Orchid
  • 16- Amethyst
  • 13- Mystic Blue

The duo I am reviewing is 14 Smoky Look..both eye shadows are 2g each..this comes with a mirror too..along with a sponge applicator..and surprisingly..these shadows work well with the sponge applicator too..

I found them better in texture and staying power than the Mono Eye shadow..may be coz these shades are darker and have a matte finish and not the metallic finish like the Oceanic one. These are not powdery..quite smooth and stay on well too..

The shades are a deep sea blue and a bluish gray..not the everyday colors..these are a little cool toned and need other shades to blend with.

For me personally..these two shades look good separately but not together..and since both are from the blue family..they kind of mix and do not stand out as two separate colors ! Ya if the grey is used as a base…the blue does stand out but not the other way round..

Pros:

1. Quite smooth in texture.
2. No fall out or creasing.
3. Stay for a good 6-7 hours.
4. The shades are quite pigmented even without a primer.
5. Come with a mirror and a sponge tip applicator which does work well with these.
6. Travel friendly.
7. Economical
8. Five duos to choose from.

Cons:

1. Both these shades did not work together for me..especially with blue as the base..but they are quite individually.
2. Faces is not available everywhere.

No other cons as such with these..I quite liked these shadows..in fact these colors I found better in texture than even the Mono Eye Shadows from this range.

Simply dab the Cream Blush onto skin with fingertips to emulate the look of natural, youthful skin.

MRP: Rs. 399/- for 3.5g

Shades available:

  • 13- Hint of Pink
  • 12- Pinked Mauve
  • 14- Rose Quartz
  • 11- Peach Glow
    Rose Quartz is a shade that would match your skin tone probably..it would not show up much on the skin..its more like a creamy highlighter but it does not have any sheen or shimmer..its matte..this would act more as a base for your powder blushes..

    Its quite pigmented..but not as creamy as the NYX Rouge Cream Blush..stays on for a good 4-5 hours..

    Pros:

    1. Liked the simple packaging..and comes with a mirror.
    2. These are quite pigmented.
    3. Stay on for a good 4-5 hours.
    4. These are not glossy or shiny like other cream blushes..so would suit oily skinned too.
    5. Economical.
    6. Travel friendly..as they have a mirror too..and you can easily blend them with fingers.
    7. This shade would act as a base for powder blushes or give some dewiness to the cheeks.

    Cons:
    1. This shade takes away the whole purpose of a blush !
    If you want your cheeks to be dewy sans any color..you can get this..or else I would not recommend this shade..I liked the shade Peach Glow the most..thats a nice peachy shade though with shimmer…I overall liked the quality and texture of these..
