Ellis Faas Milky Lips L209 Review, Swatches

What the Company claims: Milky Lips L209 – Toffee Beige

WHAT – A long-wear, fluid lipstick that provides highly-pigmented colour, and a glossy finish that lasts overtime. Superior comfort both in application and on the lips. Plumping actives improve hydration and smooth your lips. Especially loved by women who do not like to feel lipstick on their lips.

WHY – The light texture of this highly pigmented, covering lipstick gives great definition to your lips, both as a fully covering shade, but also as a mere stain.

ACTIVE INGREDIENTS – Vitamin E (Tocopherol), Candelilla Wax, Prune Seed Extract.

HOW – Apply Milky Lips with the brush applicator first by painting the lips with just a small amount of lipstick, then fully load the applicator to fill inside of the lips. Milky Lips is also great for a more stained effect: just load a tiny bit of the lipstick onto the applicator, apply and blot for a matte stain. Watch the instruction video!

A “Human Colour” and therefore suitable for each skin tone, age or style.

No scent. No taste. No parabens. No animal testing.

MRP: $35.00 or Rs.1875/-

Shades available: 9

All shades for reference…

Directions: “For a subtle look with just a trace of color, either apply a feather-light layer all over the lips or apply Milky Lips to the middle of the lips and fade it with the fingertips.”

Ellis Lips comes in three textures: Creamy Lips (L101-109), Milky Lips (L201-209), and Glazed Lips (L301-309) and all have sheer to buildable coverage and are quite pigmented.

It comes in a classic Ellis Faas silver metallic pen packaging..with a brush applicator..the base needs to be twisted some 20-25 times for the first time for the product to come out..

The formula is sheerer and lighter compared to Creamy lips..but surely buildable as mentioned above..the glossiness fades and goes away within an hour and leaves behind a matte finish..and the color even settles into fine lines..

Just 1 swipe

Shade L209 Toffee Beige looks more brown on some..but on me its a nice peachy nude..an everyday shade and I am loving the shade..I am not into browns but I sure love my nudes !

Used sheer

Pros:

1. Nice packaging.
2. Easy to use.
3. Quite pigmented.
4. Buildable.
5. No animal testing or parabens.
6. Good everyday nude or MLBB shade for medium skin tones.

Cons:

1. Expensive !
2. Glossiness goes away within an hour and settles into fine lines..one needs very moisturised lips for this.
3. Difficult to locate products when all together :/
4. Availability issues.

Overall I love the shade and the fact that its quite pigmented and buildable. I do like the packaging..but as the outer body is same, gets confusing to locate..the texture and quality is sure amazing..would surely recommend..

Colorbar Soft Touch Lipstick 016 Rougemarie Review, Swatches

 What the Company claims: Give your lips a soft and smooth look with the Soft Touch Lipstick. Its rich creamy formula enhances the lips, while keeping them moisturised and nourished. With Vitamin A and E and apricot oil, the Soft Touch Lipstick has anti-aging properties that protect the lips from chapping and discolouration. With a unique fig fragrance, the Soft Touch Lipstick is available in classy shades.

Price: Rs. 325/- for 4.2g

Shades Available: 29-30

Colorbar Soft Touch Lipsticks come in simple silver metal body packaging…these clasp tight and are sturdy enough.

Rougemarie is a burgundy/maroon shade but more towards deep oxblood/wine red..which is quite an IN shade these days..

These are highly moisturising and very pigmented and stay long too…they have a sweet smell..but it goes away soon..


Here is it on me..

Pros:

1. Very moisturising.
2. Highly pigmented..you just need 2 swipes for complete coverage.
3. Simple elegant packaging.
4. Stays for a good 4-5 hours..leaving behind a stain.
5. 4.2g is a good qty
6. Would suit both fair and dusky skin tones.

Cons:

1. Stains teeth..and a lot

I actually have no other cons with it..its a nice formula offering around 30 shades..and the darker shades are quite pigmented too..only issue being the darker shades stain teeth :/

There are some other nice shades they have..Citrine is a bright orange..I like Pink Charm too..a nude pink..would show some more swatches later on..I surely recommend these..

You can buy them on Pepperfry, Myntra or Medplusbeauty (292 on medplus)

Rouge Bunny Rouge have both Sheer and Color Burst Formula..color burst are more creamier and pigmented..they come in an elegant black packaging with white flower design on it..

Rouge Bunny Rouge Color Burst Lipsticks are probably the most comfortable lipsticks I’ve ever tried. They feel moisturizing on the lips but are glossy and at the same time the lasting power is very good and the color fades evenly to a nice sheer stain.

Word of Mouth is described as ‘Creamy, shiny finish cool cherry syrup – The little black dress of lipsticks, very pretty and feminine’. And it is indeed so..its a gorgeous watermelon rose shade..this shade would suit all skin tones and brighten up the complexion instantly..the shade is quite different..

Pros:

1. Very hydrating.
2. Gives a glossy sheen.
3. Super pigmented.
4. Stays for 4-5 hours and leaves behind a nice stain.
5. Elegant pretty packaging.
6. Shade would suit all skin tones..it is neither too bright nor pale..a pretty watermelon shade..meant for both warm and cool skin tones.

Cons:

1. Expensive !
2. Available only on RBR boutique or Zuneta.

Overall the formula is amazing..the shade is amazing..Word of Mouth is a gorgeous shade..and I surely recommend it !

It has this simple and cute matte black packaging with silver ring. It is sturdy enough. It is moisturising and has a glossy creamy texture.

Baby Peach is a light peachy pink shade..it is not a true peach but has some pinkiness to it..so it would not wash out darker skin tones..

T- Revlon Peach B- Lioele Baby Peach

I also compared it with Revlon Colorburst Peach..as you can see Revlon is a true peach and Lioele Baby Peach is a peachy pink..it is more of a MLBB shade for me..


Pros:

1. Pigmented…you need just a swipe and 2 for full coverage.
2. Moisturising..one can skip a lip balm.
3. Creamy glossy finish.
4. Baby Peach shade has a hint of pinkiness and would not wash out darker skin tones..can be a MLBB shade for many.
5. Cute simple packaging.
6. Has some pretty pinks and peaches in this range.

Cons:

1. Expensive.
2. Not available here.
3. Staying power is average..needs to be reapplied every 2-3 hours.

Overall its a nice moisturising lipstick with a glossy finish..Baby Peach is a nice peachy pink everyday shade..and I would recommend it..

Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter Cotton Candy Review, Swatches

Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter 045 Cotton Candy Review, Swatches

I mentioned about the launch of Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter HERE

What the Company claims: A savoir for lips during cold winter months or dry summer days, Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter contains a combination of Mango, Shea and Coconut Butter to naturally soothe lips while giving a touch of color that outshines any dull day.

  • Pampering gel formula glides on lips buttery smooth and hydrates lips
  • 94% of women saw a difference in their lip moisturization
  • Medium coverage color with a high shine finish
  • Mango Butter, Shea Butter and Coconut Butter naturally boosts lip moisture
  • Gives balm like feel to lips, making lips feel soothed, pampered, and conditioned
  • Naturally fragrant with Vanilla Absolute

SHADES: 15 delicious shades: Pink Truffle, Raspberry Pie, Tutti Frutti, Brown Sugar, Peach Parfait, Fig Jam, Candy Apple, Red Velvet, Cotton Candy, Berry Smoothie, Cherry Tart, Lollipop, Strawberry Shortcake, Sugar Plum, Sweet Tart.

M.R.P: Rs. 600/- for 2.55g

It comes in silver packaging with a pink or purple transparent cap wit criss cross pattern. The qty of 2.55g is as much as your pinky finger ! Yes, its that less..

These are super glossy and hydrating..though sheer but are buildable..the darker shades are quite pigmented..the gel formula gives a lip balm feel..so the effect is somewhere in between of a gloss and lip balm and a sheer lipstick..lighter shades stay for 2-3 hours and deeper shades stay longer leaving behind a tint.

Cotton Candy is a blue based bubble gum pink with golden shimmer..the shimmer adds to the warmth of the shade and gives some glossiness..but it is not gritty and is hardly felt. Though the shade is cool toned, it does not wash out or look pale..but in fact on me its a my lips but better but a little pinky kinds..an everyday shade for me !

Pros:

1. Super hydrating.
2. Pigmented.
3. Give a glossy finish.
4. Lighter shades stay for 2-3 hours and more deeper ones longer and leave behind a tint.
5. Available in 15 shades and all shades are super gorgeous.
6. The mango and shea butter do heal in dry lips too.
7. Nice packaging.
8. Very light on lips..you won’t feel you wearing a lipstick.

Cons:

1. The qty offered is too less and since these are to be layered as come up sheer in one swipe, if used regularly, they would finish up in 2 weeks !
2. Expensive ! For the qty, these should be priced at around Rs. 400-450/-
3. Need 3-4 swipes for pigmented lips.

Overall these are quite good..and the shades offered are awesome..you are sure to like a minimum of 3-4 out of the 15 ! There’s one for everyone..a super hydrating and glossy lipstick which feels like a lip balm.

Revlon Colorburst Lipstick Fuchsia Review, Swatches – MAC Girl About Town Dupe ?

Ok..now this has a story behind it..I am always into more of neutrals..and get scared with bright shades..but from the time I saw this super HOT pink on Bruna Abdullah in the song Tu Mera Hero from Desi Boys..I wanted this shade !!

The one Bruna wore looked like MAC Girl About Town to me..I searched for all Fuchsias and Hot Pinks..would share all the shades I liked out of those I found,in a separate post later..

After comparing the shades online and checking some reviews, I found Revlon Colorburst Fuchsia is indeed super close to Girl About Town..though Girl About Town is a little more deeper and Revlon Fuchsia is a little more cool toned…but they are quite similar..

1 swipe, 2 swipes

Revlon Colorburst Lipsticks come in a black criss cross pattern packaging with the shade color at the top..they are quite smooth and glide on easily..this bright shade is super pigmented..and in one swipe you get enough color..in two it comes out fully..stays for around 4-5 hours without eating or drinking..feels quite light on the lips..

Revlon Colorburst Fuchsia is a cool toned bright pink shade..it looks amazing both as a stain and full blown..this shade would look great on all skin tones..I have seen dusky girls rock bright shades more..

I love how this shade brightens up the whole face..Also seen HERE

Check out the shade Peach and the complete review for Revlon Colorburst Lipsticks HERE

MRP: Rs.610/- for 3.7g

Now these were priced at 550 when they were launched..then they raised it to 580 and now 610 for the new and hot selling shades..I don’t think they should keep on increasing the prices like that :/

Some shades are available at Rs.499/- on Flipkart..check them HERE

Overall I love this shade ! And surely recommend it..if you love bright pinks, you are going to love this..did I get the shade similar to Bruna..I am not sure..her seems more bright coz of the camera and all..but but I am loving this..and have no regrets..all girls should have a hot pink in their stash 😉

Colorbar Take Me As I Am Lip Color Review, Swatches

Colorbar Take Me As I Am Lip Color Flirtatious Pink Review, Swatches

What the Company claims: Take me as I am lip color is a unique multifunctional product which provides the application of a lipstick combined with the convenience of a pencil in a jumbo crayon design. It is an extra creamy and soft feeling lipstick formula with excellent color pay-off and coverage. Viscous oils and esters create the beautiful shine. Skin conditioning ingredients like Shea butter and vitamin E further enhance the comfortable wearing properties. Be worry-free, take this gorgeous pencil and create the prettiest lip – creamy, ready for shine and flirty fun.

MRP: INR 699.00 for 3.94g

Shades Available:

  • Sensuous Red
  • Flirtatious Pink
  • Seductive Tan
  • Lip Smacking Cherry
  • Mischievous Wine
  • Bare Dare Pink
  • Sizzling Berry
  • Mysterious Nude

Its a short chubby pencil with the matching shade color at the ends..it comes with its own sharpener..It is not like normal lip pencils..which are usually drier..this is more of a lipstick in pencil form..remember the Inglot AMC Lip Pencil..see HERE but even that is matte..so a little dry..

These Take Me As I am Lip Color Pencils are just like your moisturising lipsticks..they apply with ease..and are very comfy on lips without any dryness or heaviness..they give a glossy finish..which fades away after some time..but the color stays..it stays for a good 5-6 hours..and leaves behind a stain..
The shade 002 Flirtatious Pink is a peachy pink with a hint of brown..this shade would suit most of the skin tones..
Here is it on me..

Pros:
1. Moisturising and there is no dryness or heaviness.
2. Stay for a good 5-6 hours.
3. These pencils have a cute packaging and easy to carry along for touch ups too.
4. Comes with their own sharpener.
5. There are 8 shades available but there is something for everyone..an orange based red, a nude pink, peachy pink, pale pink, wine ,berry, nude brown, etc..
6. Matching ends to identify the shade in case you have more than one..
Cons:
1. Expensive !
2. Would finish off soon..since it needs to be sharpened and causes wastage too.
Overall I do love them..a product which works both as a liner and lipstick and stays so well and is moisturising and can be carried along anywhere for touch ups..these sure are good..I only wish these were priced around Rs. 450-500/- coz the Inglot AMC Matte Pencils are also priced at Rs.680/- and these are higher..
In case you want to buy, these are available at Rs. 594/- HERE..swatches coming up soon..
