Lotus Herbals Moist Petals Lipstick Red Rover Swatches

Lotus Herbals Moist Petals Lipstick Red Rover Swatches


I have already reviewed the Lotus Herbals Moist Petals Lipstick here. I had the shade Maroon Melody. Then I quite liked the formula and got two more..in Rose Petal and Natural Haze.

The shade I am reviewing today is 112 Red Rover which is a part of their Festive Glam collection having 5 other new shades.

It looks like an orange based red in the tube..but its not as dark until layered up. A single swipe gives a hint of pinkish red tint on the lips.

In Sunlight
Indoors

It does have some shimmer but its not much visible on application. The staying power is decent if worn as a full color and it leaves behind a tint but it does transfer like all lip colors.

But these are quite moisturising and you can skip a lip balm with this one.

Overall a nice red for those who are scared of reds or want to try reds..you can start with this..and even use it as a tint if you do not want a darker color.

P.S: Product sent by brand for review but it has not affected my opinion.

What the Company claims: A unique, high gloss lip care formulation with a non-sticky feel. Enriched with botanical extracts of Grapes and Jojoba that make lips soft and supple for long. The unique product qualities are:  Sponge Brush Applicator for smooth even application  Freedom to use as top coat without affecting lip color.

I had posted about the new Festive launches by Lotus Herbals in Moist Petals and Seduction Botanical Tinted Lip Gloss here. They have come up with 6 new shades in Moist Petals and 5 new shades in lip glosses suitable for the Festive season.

The shade I am reviewing 40 Lychee Squash is a part of their new launch. They have a normal slanted applicator..I guess a doe foot one would have been better.

Lychee Squash is a bronzy pink shade with shimmer..its a perfect festive shade..this shade would go with most of the Indian traditional wear.

Pros:

1. Its quite moisturising but non sticky.
2. A shade to go with traditional wear.
3. 5 ml is a good quantity..it would last quite long.
4. Economical.
5. The shimmer can give that glossy lips !
6. Has jojoba and grape extracts.

Cons:

1. Not all Ingredients are mentioned.
2. Staying power is ok..it does not last long.
3. This shade is not suitable for daily wear.
4. Its not very pigmented..so if you have pigmented lips you need to test it first.

Overall a decent gloss..And I would surely like to check out other shades..I just wished it had a little less shimmer and would have stayed longer.

Lotus Herbals Pomegranate and Plum Skin Polisher Review

Lotus Herbals introduced 3 new skin polishers in their range..I wrote about the Pomegranate and Plum one here
Its the energising one and meant for all skin types. Others are Kiwi and Grapes Revitalising Skin Polisher which is meant for sensitive skin and Orange Peel and Alpine Salt Whitening skin polisher meant for oily to combination skin.

Why is it different than a scrub?
Over-scrubbing with ordinary face scrubs can often lead to rashes and redness. Lotus Herbals Skin Polishers on the other hand do not have any such abrasive effect on skin. Lotus Herbals Skin Polishers unlike ordinary face scrubs have ultra fine granules that tenderly clear dead skin cells while nourishing skin to give it flawless radiance.

Do you see the half filled tub

So basically its different coz it has fine granules and its not so harsh.

MRP: Rs 155/- for 50g and Rs.245/- for 100g

It looks thick and gooey like a jam with small white,black and pink granules in it. It smells decent enough..though some may find it a little strong.

Pros:

1. It works well on the face and is gentle enough to even use it daily.
2. Can be used on hands and feet too.
3. Has a nice pomegranate and plum color,smell and feel.
4. Skin does not feel dry after using this unlike a few scrubs.
5. Skin does feel soft,smooth and it gives a refreshing feeling with all that fruity touch to it.

Cons;

1. Those who prefer more of exfoliation would not like this as its mild.
2.  The quantity in 50g tub is less as its just half filled and also by shelling 90 bucks extra you get double the qty..so this should have been priced around 120-125.
3. One polisher comes in tube form…then why rest two in tubs..tubes are more hygienic and better to use.
4. I cannot comment on the anti wrinkle claim and I am not sure of a scrub helping in controlling wrinkles !
