Maybelline InstaGlam Box Celebration of Bonds in Pink Review, FOTD

Maybelline India always launches a new InstaGlam box on various occasions. Check these:

Now this time they have come up with an Instaglam box for the Rakhi season to celebrate the special ‘brother-sister’ bond called the ‘Celebration of Bonds’ box.

Shades Available: Pink, Coral, Red

MRP: Rs.750/- (with products worth Rs.895/-)

Its a box with your basic essentials which are:

A dash of kajal, liner and lip gloss is what all of us use even on a regular basis. And the latest Glitter Mania nail paints were the perfect thing to add in the box ! An hint of bling completes the celebration box.

Colossal Kajal is a classic, a good glossy liquid liner is another must have. I absolutely love the High Shine Lip Gloss range, one of the best in India. And Glitter Mania nail enamels are again an hit.  The shade in this box ‘Pink Champagne’ is by far an universal favorite and I believe the widely sold too 😀

I think its a box all girls can use, coz not many use blush/mascara but a kajal or lip gloss is what every girl would use/carry along in her bag 😀

It makes a perfect gift, not only for sisters but also your girlfriends 😉 Nah, for any girl actually.

I highly recommend it. One good, value for money, must have box. Not only for yourself, but also to gift someone. At 750 bucks, makes quite an economical gift too 🙂

I did an FOTD with the kajal, lip gloss and eyeliner (created a winged eyeliner).

You can buy it from Snapdeal HERE.

New Maybelline 12H Colossal Kajal Review, Swatches
I had reviewed the Maybelline Colossal Kajal previously HERE. Now they have relaunched it in a darker and more long staying form..the previous one claimed 6 hours of wear and this one claims 12 hours..

Read on to know how it fares..

What the Company claims:

MRP: Rs.175/- for 0.35g

The packaging is the same..the same yellow swivel up mechanical pencil. Its nice, rich black and easy to apply..does not tug or pull.

Thats the whole qty

I did not like the previous one much..as it did not stay longer on my watery eyes..in fact no kohl stays longer than 2-3 hours on me..

But but this one did ! For almost 5-6 hours which is a very good thing considering my watery eyes. But it does smudge a little more than the previous one..that did not spread around giving raccoon eyes..this one does at times..

Here is the swatch..

L: Swatch R: After smudging

And on eyes..

Before, After

Pros:

1. Its nice dark black.
2. Glides on nicely..no tugging or pulling.
3. Reasonably priced.
4. Stays for 5-6 hours on my watery eyes ! Thats a long time for me 😀
5. It does not go away completely leaving your eyes bare..and there is always a hint of it till the time you remove it.
6. Does not smear much..the swatch did not budge from the hand.

Cons:

1. Claim of 12 hours..I am not really sure about.
2. No Ingredients mentioned.
3. Does give raccoon eyes at times..especially when eyes watery.

Rating:

Quality: 3.75/5
Value for money: 4/5
Availability: 4/5

Overall Rating: 3.75/5

Would I buy it again: Yes..I am pretty impressed by the staying power of this..much better than the previous one..

Maybelline Colossal Kajal Review

Uncategorized, , , ,
I got this kajal after hearing lots of ppl raving about it..Its a twist up mechanical pencil..and is nice dark black.

It claims to have
Mega Intensity + Mega Wear for 6 hours which equals to Colossal Striking Eyes

Well it has lot of product in it..and would last me a long time..

MRP: Rs 150/-

Shelf life: 24 months

This is how it looks on my eyes

Pros:

1. Its nice dark black.
2. Glides on nicely and is super soft.
3. Reasonably priced.
4. Does not spread or smudge much or give racoon eyes like a few herbal kajals.
5. I liked the yellow packaging.
6. It does not go away completely leaving your eyes bare..and there is a hint of it till the time you remove it.

Cons:

1. Claim of 6 hours staying power is wrong…it hardly stays for 2 hours.
2. It does get collected at the corners.
3. When I got wet in rain..it smudged too and gave me racoon eyes 🙁 So basically not meant for the rainy season.
4. No Ingredients mentioned…dont know what the 5 caring ingredients are :/

Rating:

Quality: 3.5/5
Value for money: 3.5/5
Availability: 3.5/5

Overall Rating: 3.5/5

Would I buy it again: No…the only fact good about it..is that it does not smudge..but I am not impressed with the staying power…just another normal kajal
