Hi guys,

Lakme has launched 10 new shades in the Lakme Absolute Matte Lip Pouts collection in association with designer Masaba Gupta.

The entire theme is candyland, so the packaging and shades are all inspired from 90’s candies.

There are 5 different type of packaging in the crayons based on 90’s candies, and two shades from the same colour family have the same packaging, see more in my vlog HERE

I have 5 shades from each different colour family.

The formula is exactly the same as before, you can read my detailed review on the Lakme Absolute Matte Lip Crayons HERE

They are one of my most favourite lipstick collection from Lakme, Pink Fantasy is a forever favourite. I am glad they have added interesting shades in this range.

Pigmentation and staying power is pretty good, the orange shade is still a little patchy like last time. Even the Role A Cola. Loving the nudes in this range.

L-R:: Cherry Bite, Role A Cola, Orange Candy, Caramel Toffee, Bubble Pink

Cherry Bite is a cool toned medium red

Orange Candy is a warm bright orange

Caramel Toffee is a nude peachy brown

Bubble Pink is a cool toned pink

Role A Cola is a blue based purple

Here is a mini swatch video..

My favourites are Caramel Toffee and Bubble Pink. Role A Cola is also a nice and different shade, wish it was not patchy. I am looking forward to try Cotton Candy.

This is a limited edition collection and the packaging is super pretty. I would definitely recommend picking at least one shade, for the packaging. Most of you will love Caramel Toffee, it’s a perfect everyday shade 🙂

Lakme Absolute Matte Lip Pouts Review, Swatches

Hi guys,

I mentioned about the launch of the new Lakme Absolute Lip Pouts HERE. They have launches it in 6 matte and 10 creme shades. The matte shades are out already and the creme ones would follow soon.

What the Company claims: Lakme Absolute Lip Pout are a playful take on lip tints with excellent colour pay off. Lip Pout is your go-to lip tint for that effortlessly vibrant and playful look. So play with your pout & experiment with different lip trends.

MRP: Rs.650/- for 3.5g

Shades Available: 6

Tangerine Touch
Scarlet Rose
Magenta Magic
Raving Red
Pink Fantasy
Victorian Rose

Today I am reviewing the shades Tangerine Touch, Pink Fantasy and Raving Red.

On the pencils, they mention ‘Lip Tint’, I guess it is their old product Lakme Absolute Lip Tints which they have now re launched in these matte and glossy Lip Pouts version with a new name.

These come in a lip crayon format and have a twist up mechanism. The outer colors are according to the shades and all have a silver cap. The crayon format is very travel friendly too.

The texture and finish of this is completely matte and it kind of reminds me of the Inglot AMC Lip Pencils. These are decently pigmented but as expected very dry. You will definitely need a lip balm underneath and they are very unforgiving if you have dry lips and will accentuate them. So scrubbing lips is a must with these.

They stay for around 5-6 hours but do not survive meals, thankfully they fade off evenly. I think I expected more in terms of staying power and pigmentation. They transfer 1-2 times at first when they are not set which takes some time.

Pink Fantasy is a blue based rose pink

Tangerine Touch is a bright orange

Raving Red is a pinkish red

L-R: Tangerine Touch, Raving Red, Pink Fantasy

The colors are not something very unique or different, the usual normal basic shades, I feel there should have been 1-2 more shades like mauves, plums or bright Ruby Woo kind of red.

L-R: Pink Fantasy, Raving Red, Tangerine Touch,

I swatched the Pink Fantasy first, hence it looks better on the lips. By the time I swatched Tangerine Touch last, the scraping/removing the previous swatches made lips very dry, hence the Tangerine one looks patchy.

Here are these on me..

L-R: Tangerine Touch, Raving Red, Pink Fantasy

I also like Magenta Magic and Victorian Rose and would love to try those too. I absolutely love matte lipsticks and Pink Fantasy is my favourite out of these three, followed by Tangerine Touch.

I am so glad these are priced at Rs.650/- coz all new Lakme Absolute launches have been priced at around Rs.800 since quite some time.

Overall I would say, I am very happy that Indian companies are coming up with matte lipsticks and these convenient crayon forms. I only expected a bit more in terms of shades and staying power, I hope they come up with more shades. But at least they are priced decently, these are already out in the market and also available online.
