Maybelline India New Launches Review | City Mini Palettes, Inti-Matte Nude Lipsticks

Hi guys,

Maybelline has finally launched the City Mini Palettes and Inti-Matte Nude Lipsticks in India.

There are 4 palettes and 10 lipsticks, palettes are priced at Rs.750/- and lipsticks Rs.500/- (Buy HERE)

Inti-matte Nude Lipsticks

Claims: Warm up to the perfect matte nude lip with Maybelline New York Inti-Matte Nude Lipstick. This range comprises of warmer, more sensational nudes for every skin tone. Inti-Matte Nude lipstick features warm, golden pigments that enrich your natural lip color. Pucker up to radiant, confident color that highlights one’s natural beauty with this amazing offering!

Features :

  • Creamiest matte nude lipsticks.
  • Features warm, golden pigments to enhance natural lips.
  • Enriched with sweet Honey nectar.
  • Available in beautiful warm shades for all skin tones.

Shades: 10

  • Chilli Nude
  • Just a Teaser
  • Pretty Please
  • Smitten
  • Toasted Brown
  • Walnut
  • Raw Cocoa
  • Almond Pink
  • Honey Cherry
  • Rosewood Red

These inti-matte nude lipsticks are launched in their Powder Matte category. The packaging is same as other Colorsensational lipsticks, just this has transparent brown cap.

The finish is velvet matte, these glide on easily and are quite pigmented and super comfortable on the lips. They are not transfer proof though.

I love both the lipsticks Almond Rose and Raw Cocoa, also recommend Toasted Brown. I love the finish and feel of Maybelline powder matte lipsticks, and the shades in this Inti-Matte Nudes collection are to die for!

City Mini Palettes

Claims: Master your own NYC moment with a collection of perfectly curated eyeshadow shades. The City Mini Palette features six dramatic shades that are perfect for creating custom eye makeup looks. From Graffiti Pop and Concrete Runway to Rooftop Bronzes and Chill Brunch Neutrals, make a lasting impression with Maybelline’s six-shade mini eyeshadow palette.

Features :

  • Perfectly curated 6 color eye shadow palette.
  • Pure color pigments melt onto the eyelid for dramatic impact in a single sweep.
  • Super-saturated color pigments that deliver long-lasting finish.
  • Create your own amped-up look in an instant.

I picked the Rooftop Bronzes palette, it definitely needed 1-2 matte shades, all the shades are satin/shimmer finish. The pigmentation is amazing though, and they glide on like butter. It’s a tiny and handy palette but matte shades would have completed the palette well. Still nonetheless it’s a very good palette and good for both day time and night time use.

It has a mix of bronze brown, medium brown, purple black, shimmery gold, peachy pink and shimmery white gold.

City Mini Palettes are at 20% off on Nykaa right now!

I found the price of 750 expensive, but at 600 currently, I definitely recommend it! The lipsticks are amazing and you should surely get 1-2 shades. All 10 shades are perfect for Indian skin tones unlike the previous Gigi Hadid collection.

Indian Summer Makeup Tutorial | Gold Eyes and Blue Liner

Hi guys,

I created this summer makeup tutorial apt for casual outings or even summer weddings, especially if you have blue and gold in your outfit.

I used cushion foundation and very little highlighter as you don’t want a heavy base for summers and too much shimmer on the face, coz you sweat anyway.

Products used:

  • PAC Cosmetics Pore Primer
  • MAC Conceal & Correct Palette Medium Deep
  • The Body Shop Fresh Nude Cushion Foundation Malawi Beach
  • Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer Light
  • Wet N Wild Mega Glo Contouring Powder- Yellow
  • NYX Ombre Blush Feel The Heat
  • Makeup Geek Contouring Powder Complicated
  • NYX Refine & Define Powder Foundation
  • Becca Champagne Pop
  • NYX Dream Catcher Palette in Golden Horizons
  • NYX Gel Liner & Smudger in Cobalt Blue
  • MAC Modern Twist Kajal Cat’s Meow
  • Colourpop Honeydude Eyeliner
  • PAC Retro Matte Gloss 36 and 36
  • NYX Dewy Finish Setting Spray
  • YBP Makeup Perfector

The gold gives a nice warmth to the summer look and the pop of blue liner adds come colour. For the lips, I didn’t want something too bright or light, so mixed the two pinks to get the perfect rosy pink.

Burgundy Brown Fall Smokey Eyes Tutorial using Lakme French Rose Palette

Burgundy Brown Fall Smokey Eyes Tutorial using Lakme French Rose Palettee

Hi guys,

So as promised I did this easy fall smokey eyes look using the new Lakme French Rose Palette. See the review and swatches of both the new Illuminating Palettes HERE

MRP: Rs.995/- (Buy HERE)

I used the light brown in the crease and added a little burnt orange for more warmth in the crease. Finally I took the main burgundy brown shade and used it all over the lid. Since this shade was a little less pigmented than rest of the shades in the palette, it needed a little layering.

So as you can see here, I went over it a few times to get the desired intensity. I used the coppery orange shade in the inner corners and since there was no creamy highlight shade in French Rose, I took the one from the Royal Persia palette to highlight my brow bone.

I used the same light brown and burgundy brown to smoke out my lower lashline. I used falsies but removed them later on as I was not happy with how they looked. I used the Lakme Eyeconic 22Hr Kajal on my upper lashline and smudged it a bit.

Finally I took the Colourpop Honeydude n*de eyeliner and used on my waterline to make my eyes look a little bigger. And used the Essence Lash Princess Mascara on both my upper and lower lashes.

I have used the Illuminating Shimmer Brick in Coral for my blush and the same gold from that to highlight.

I loved how the look turned up as I was not sure since I was using this palette the first time. Also there are so many different combinations I can think of with this palette. It’s very versatile and the shades are perfect for office wear to weddings.

Honestly I would have liked 2 more shades for the price of 995, 8 shadows would have been perfect including one black and one highlight shade.

Many of you have mentioned the price being a little high, usually Amazon has discounts later on, but since this is Limited Edition, I am not sure till when it will be sold.

If you buy from Beauty Centres and are getting discount on this or there are some nice offers and GWP going on, then definitely grab this French Rose Palette.

Plum Smokey Eyes for Diwali with L’Oreal Paris Festive Fever

Plum Smokey Eyes for Diwali with L’Oreal Paris Festive Fever

Hi guys,

I got a few things from the L’Oreal Paris Festive Fever collection. This collection has a range of products apt for the current festive season i.e. Diwali.

I got the Color Riche La Palette Nude in Rose, I think they have this floral design on on eye shadow for this special occasion, coz I haven’t seen in that usual palettes.

The Color Riche Les Ombre Eyeshadow in Midnight Rose, Color Riche Le Smoky Eyeliner Pencil in Black Velour. The eye pencil is amazing! Super creamy, super pigmented, stays long, comes with a smudger behind. Tough competition with my favourites Lakme Absolute Kohl Ultimate and Colorbar Just Smoky Just Black.

Then we have the Lucent Magique Blush in Sunset Glow, Super Liner Gel Intenza in Sapphire Blue. The Gel Intenza Gel liners are my favourites, I have all three shades and highly recommend these to everyone!

The Super Liner Perfect Slim, which I guess is a new launch in India. I love felt tip pen eyeliners and only use those, can’t wait to try this one.

L’Oreal Paris True Match Super Blendable Powder, Volume Million Lashes Mascara which is my favourite! And last but not the least, the Moist Matte Lipstick In Blaze of Red. I love the moist matte formula and they are one of my favourite range in L’Oreal Paris.

I came up with this plum smokey eyes using these products..

I used my L’Oreal Paris Infallible Foundation for the base and set it with the True Match Super Blendable Powder. The Lucent Magique Sunset Glow Blush for the blush and highlight. For my eyes, I used the Le Smoky Pencil in Black first to line my upper lashline and smudged it softly. I used the plum shade all over the lid and the warm light brown in the crease and for blending. I used the soft pink eye shadow in the inner corners and the matte off white shade on my brow bone. I used the Le Smoky Pencil for both waterline and tightlining and smoked the lower lash line with the same plum and brown. Finally finished with the Volume Million Lashes Mascara, two coats on both upper and lower lashes.

Color Riche La Palette Nude in Rose
Lucent Magique Blush Sunset Glow

And the Moist Matte Lipstick in Blaze of Red to end.

I hope you like the look, do let me know your thoughts in the comments below. Also what look are you sporting this Diwali?

P.S.: I wanted to record a video for this look, but my camera battery charger is not working. I have been going crazy in finding a charger as even the authorized service center or dealer do not have it and apparently no one stocks accessories. Kind of weird, but how does one use the camera without the charger. Highly disappointed in Nikon!

Indian Makeup Tutorial for College/Work | Drugstore

Hi guys,

I am doing this simple college/work appropriate makeup look using just 6-7 products. Also all products are drugstore and I have only use one makeup brush.

This look can be done in 5 minutes and is perfect for your everyday college/work.

Products used:

That’s it. The blush is optional, you may or may not use it. Also you can go for any base i.e. any BB Cream/tinted moisturiser which works for your skin type and shade. You can also skip the concealer if you don’t have problematic skin or dark circles.

If you have oily skin, make sure you powder and if you have dry skin, you can just carry it along for touch up on T zone later.

Simple Winged Liner & Pink Lips Indian Drugstore Makeup Tutorial

Simple Winged Liner & Pink Lips Indian Drugstore Makeup Tutorial

Hi guys,

I was going for an event yesterday and did this winged liner with pink lips, so thought of doing a GRWM.

This is pretty much what I wear on an everyday basis for events,etc. with just change in lip color, blush,highlighter at times.

Products used:

Sephora Smoothing Primer
Maybelline Fit Me Foundation
Lakme Absolute Face Stylist Concealer
Maybelline Fit Me Powder
Maybelline Cheeky Glow Blush in Peachy Sweetie
Faces Ultime Pro Metalliglow Champagne
Revlon Nearly Naked Powder Medium Deep to contour
Maybelline Fashion Brow Duo Brown
Essence Lash Princess Mascara
Miss Claire Lip Cream in no. 12

I know my dark circles are not completely covered, but I have neither used a corrector nor a full coverage foundation, I do not prefer using heavy base in regular. Maybelline Fit Me is just perfect for me, also on most days I only use a BB or CC cream as base with concealer and powder. Even the Maybelline Fit Me does not get that much use :p But then, that’s just me, I do not like heavy or full coverage for everyday. Though I am looking for a good orange corrector, and would be getting the LA Girl Pro Conceal in Orange to try.

Kala Chashma Baar Baar Dekho Katrina Kaif Makeup Look | Makeup Tutorial

Kala Chashma Baar Baar Dekho Katrina Kaif Makeup Look | Makeup Tutorial

Hi guys,

I love the Kala Chashma song, it was a hit during my college days and I am absolutely loving this new mix too. Katrina Kaif looks stunning. Her killer abs and dance moves are the highlight of this song!

Here is the video of the song, if you still haven’t seen it..

I tried recreating this look, as one of my YouTube subscriber Neha requested for it. I am too lazy otherwise, but thanks for the push Neha 😀

Katrina has a soft plummy brown matte smokey eye going on with soft glossy pink lips. She doesn’t have any highlight or contour going on, not that she needs contouring either, her chiseled body and face are more than naturally contoured 😀
