Lotus Herbals Ecostay Super Finish Mousse SPF 20 Review, Swatches, FOTD

Hi guys,

I have been trying out the Lotus Herbals Ecostay Super Finish Mousse since the past few weeks and here’s my take on it.

What the Company claims: This feather light oil-free texture won’t feel greasy or heavy delivering all day flawless natural looking matte skin. It will easily hide blemishes and spots on face creating a perfect make-up base.

Special Features:

Unique feather light oil free texture
Super easy to blend & evens out the skin tone
Non-comedogenic – it won’t clog pores and is safe for sensitive skin
Natural matte finish
Waterproof Formula
100% Vegetarian
SPF 20 for UV protection
Enriched with Jojoba extracts – It promotes skin healing, treats acne and acts as a natural moisturizer for the skin

How to Use:
Cleanse your skin.
Apply moisturiser on whole face & neck.
Apply Ecostay Mousse in dots on moisturised skin, blend well in sweeping strokes using fingertips to achieve silk-smooth finish and ultimate coverage.

MRP: Rs.675/- for 15g

Shades:

  • Royal Pearl
  • Bright Angel
  • Royal Ivory

Ingredients: Jojoba extracts

It comes in this very small glass jar, it’s quite tiny than I expected. This is easy to carry even in your sling. It comes with a metallic pink cap, there is no white separator in between though.

The texture is whipped cream/mousse like and it does feel silicony which makes it a good primer that will smoothen out the skin and/or pores. It has a strong floral smell, but does not bother much and goes away in a minute. I am glad it comes with SPF 20.

I have the shade Bright Angel which is the mid shade I believe. It is a little yellow for me, but when blended on the skin, it did not look that yellow and somehow matched the skin.

The finish is completely dry and matte, you do not to top it up with a powder. This is perfect for oily skin, but if you have dry skin, make sure you moisturize heavily, coz otherwise it will accentuate dry patches.

The coverage is light and more like a tinted moisturiser for everyday use. It evens out the skin and covers any redness. You will need a concealer separately for dark circles and acne scars. Here I have used only the mousse and nothing else, and you can see my dark circles and few scars showing through. When using for an occasion, I would advise using this as a base as it makes for a good primer and smoothens out the skin and stays long.

Staying power is pretty decent, you don’t need powder touch ups as it’s matte finish, only the nose/T zone gets a little shiny after the usual 4-5 hours which is what normally happens on any skin.

I wish they had more shades though, only three options are less. Plus the quantity of 15g is also too less for the price, it should have been 30g atleast. Also only jojoba extracts is mentioned, I prefer full ingredient list.

Overall I would say it’s a daily wear mousse which gives light coverage and stays for a decent time. It smoothens the pores and gives a nice, matte look. It’s good for office or college wear and can also work as a primer. I would recommend this for oily skin. And dry skin too, but with a good, heavy moisturiser.

Lotus Herbals Colorstylo Chubby Lip Colors Review, Swatches

Lotus Herbals Colorstylo Chubby Lip Colors Review, Swatches

Hi guys,

I am reviewing three shades from the new Lotus Herbals ColorStylo Lip Color Range.

Product Description:
• Long Stay
• Moisturising
• Preservative Free

MRP:  INR 495 for 3.7g

There is not much information available online yet, but these come in 10 shades from nudes to reds to plums.

To start with the packaging, they come color coded according to their shade which makes it easier to identify. They have retractable swivel up packaging with a transparent cap.

The pigmentation is amazing, you get full opaque color in 2 swipes. These glide on easily and are quick to work with. The finish is glossy but you can blot the color to make it a bit matte. However you won’t be able to blot much as it would otherwise even take away some color/pigmentation. Since these are creamy and glossy, it is also easy to go overboard and beyond the lip lines, so be careful there.

Staying power is quite impressive too, it stayed for 4-5 hours on me without eating and leaves behind a strong stain. Even with eating or drinking, the stain is quite strong and stays though. It is not transfer proof though, but the glossiness would transfer and then later on the stain doesn’t transfer and stays put, if you know what I mean.

T-B: Ruby Red, Orange Madness, Russian Red

 206 Ruby Red is a deep berry cool toned red, would look amazing on deeper skin tones.

209 Orange Madness is neutral coral orange, no neon hint and very wearable. Perfect summer colour.

205 Russian Red is a neutral red that would work on pretty much everyone.

L-R: Russian Red, Orange Madness, Ruby Red

Ruby Red swatch was a little blurry as I have a new lens and currently struggling with it, hence did not include it here.

Russian Red & Orange Madness

I love all three reds and oranges, but I would love to try a lighter shade too from this this range. I am eyeing the shade Nude Blush.

Here I am wearing Russian Red.

Price point of 495 is pretty amazing, when all brands are pricing lip crayons much higher. If you don’t mind glossy lip colours, then these are definitely worth checking out. Only problem currently is availability, they are not available online yet, but I have seen it at Lotus Herbals Kiosks all over. Recommend it.
