Maybelline Baby Lips Electro Pop Lip Balm Oh! Orange,Pink Shock Review

After the previous normal Baby Lips and three new shades in that, Maybelline India has come up with Electro Pop Baby Lips.

What the Company claims: Give your lips an eye-catching neon twist with Maybelline New York’s Baby Lips Electro Lip Balms

Maybelline brings the ‘neon lip trend,’ spotted at New York and Paris Fall Fashion weeks to India by launching a range of bright, vibrant neon lip balms. Presenting the Maybelline Baby Lips Electro lip balm range, a collection of 4 electric lip balms – Fierce N Tangy, Berry Bomb, Oh Orange and Pink Shock, which moisturize lips while giving them a chic neon kick!

Enriched with Maybelline New York’s exclusive Botanical Cell Repair Concentrate and a blend of effective ingredients like honey, Shea butter and collagen, these flavoured lip balms hydrate and soften lips and keep them smooth for up to 8 hours. Smear on these eye-catching, glossy, neon lips balms and create your own Neon & Electro Style Statement!

Why you’ll love it:

• Has bright color pigments for an electric color effect
• Comes in Strawberry, Lemon, Orange and Watermelon flavours
• Enriched with an exclusive lip-renew formula, vitamins & moisturizing ingredients
• Visibly renews lips to make them plump, soft and smooth

Price: Fierce N Tangy-Rs. 135
Berry Bomb, Oh Orange, Pink Shock-Rs. 165

Fierce N Tangy is the non tinted one and the rest three are tinted. I love the packaging! Transparent cap and bright colors.

The formula is as smooth and moisturizing as the original Baby Lips. In fact this is slightly more creamier and glossy. I have Pink Shock and Oh! Orange with me.

Pigmentation wise Oh! Orange is not that pigmented and does not show up much on lips but Pink Shock is super! Its a very pretty bright pink,I use it almost everyday. Its my handbag staple and I also carried and used it during my honeymoon.

If you are a daily just a lip balm and kohl person like me, you will love this! Plus it did not re application again and again and kept the lips soft and supple even after it was gone and the tint remains for a long time too!!

L- Oh! Orange, R- Pink Shock

At this price point, something which moisturizes your lips and gives a nice pink color and leaves behind a tint too, I highly recommend this. I haven’t tried the Berry yet but absolutely suggest trying Pink Shock. But do not expect super bright color as shown in the ads or banners 😀

Ok, so if you follow me on my facebook, twitter or Instagram, you would know how I and my fellow blogger friend Dollie from Indian Shringar selected this shade Blazing Blue to be a part of Color Show Bright Sparks range. Similarly there were few other bloggers who selected these 7 shades.

After the Maybelline Glitter Mania launch, we did this secret activity to select the shades for this new Bright Sparks range which was supposed to be the festive cum autumn/winter range.

I like the fact that a brand includes us bloggers to be a part of their collections and launches in some or the other way. Feels good to be a part of this launch.

I got this shade which we selected along with these 5-6 pics (shown above) from the event which were clicked while we were selecting the shades.

Coming to this shade 706 Blazing Blue, its a bright ink blue which instantly brightens your hands and make your hands look pretty.

The texture, brush, etc is all exactly like the Maybelline Color Show range. I would say the only issue is, it started chipping from the tips in 1-2 days but not too much.

Overall, I love the brush and the smoothness, the price and the shades. Pretty pigmented and in 2 coats, you are sorted.

Rating: 4.25/5

I so want to try the Burnished Gold, Firewood Brown and Spark of Steel! They sound amazing.

Also, I would be giving away 10 of these Blazing Blue to 10 of you!! So, stay tuned for the contest and the hashtag #BlazeOfPassion.

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.

What do you guys think of the Maybelline Instaglam Celebration of Bonds box ? Do let me know in the comments below.

Makeup Apps from Maybelline

Looking to mobile for expert makeup advice

Guest Post

Makeup is supposed to be a girl’s best friend, yet that’s only the case when it’s used properly. Many women have fell victim of sloppy makeup techniques and incorrect shades, so it’s about time that we educate ourselves with the right makeup products for our skin tones. A trouble-free way to teach ourselves is by using mobile makeup apps, specifically ones offered by Maybelline.

Ever since the introduction of mobile applications in 2008, which was shortly after the release of the first iPhone, the world has been enthralled with the variety and versatility of apps, affecting industries from beauty to even gaming. Accessibility and convenience have also played a part in the popularity of mobile apps, which is why there were equal percentages of female and male mobile gaming users across all age groups according to AlchemyBet, maker of notable mobile casino pocketfruity.com. Because mobile apps are quite easy to use, makeup brands such as Maybelline decided to launch a mobile platform for beauty tips and tricks for all women.

Searching for the right makeup products can be a hassle, but your luck might just improve with the use of Maybelline’s mobile apps listed below.

FitMe

A lot of the time, women fail to choose the right colors that fit their complexion. For some, it has taken many trial-and-error sessions to discover their perfect shades, but with the help of this Maybelline app, the ladies won’t have to undergo an extended period of experimentation with their makeup. FitMe cleverly matches the correct shade of concealer, foundation, powder, blush and even bronzer.

ColorShow

In 2012, augmented reality app maker Blippar teamed up with our favorite makeup brand in creating a virtual option for Maybelline customers to “try on” nail polish before making a purchase. Before this app, we had to go through the tedious process of painting the testers on our fingernails, but now with a snapshot of your hand, you can test out the entire collection without having to reach for the polish remover.

Makeup Express

The latest in Maybelline mobile apps is Makeup Express. Like FitMe, this app features the “Shade Finger” which assists its users in finding the right products for their skin tone. Makeup Express also provides Maybelline buyers with an interactive in-store experience so that consumers can browse the shop while reading about product details, ratings, and tutorials. Backstage secrets can be discovered by capturing the M: Interactive symbol in-store or on advertisements, which will then lead users to the augmented reality portion of the app.

Instead of wasting time testing one product after another, try using these apps for the most accurate, efficient, and convenient makeup shopping experience.

Maybelline Color Show Glitter Mania Collection Review, Swatches, NOTD and Nailfie Contest!

What the Company claims: Stunning 3D Effect in 8 Glittering shades.

Maybelline New York launches for the 1st time ever in India a textured nail paint with the most unique finish. Never seen before Color Dry technology that provides a sand-textured effect in the hottest glitter shades. Experience glitter like you have never seen before!

This product is available in 8 exciting shades! Namely – Dazzling Diva, Red Carpet, Bling on the Blue, Pink Champagne, Paparazzi Purple, Matinee Mauve, All That Glitters & Starry Nights. Based on our Color Show premise, we have a unique shade that fits every mood and personality.In keeping with the same here is an insight for the same: Glitter has forever been a ramp and red carpet favorite! This season is all about textures and embellishments. Glitter Mania is the best of two worlds! Helping our girls taking their style from the catwalk to the sidewalk with this exciting new range! At just Rs.125, this range is very accessible!

MRP: Rs.125/- for 6ml (Buy on Flipkart HERE)

Shades Available: 8

  • 601 All That Glitters (Gold)
  • 602 Dazzling Dive (Silver)
  • 603 Starry Nights (Black)
  • 604 Red Carpet
  • 605 Matinee Mauve
  • 606 Paparazzi Purple
  • 607 Pink Champagne
  • 608 Bling on the Blue

So, to start with, I am loving the names..so fun and quirky..these come in a small cute bottle same as the Color Show Nail Paints.

We got to try one shade at the event itself..and I picked and applied 607 Pink Champagne..its on my nails from the last Friday..today being the 6th day. And so I though lets review these before I change onto some other shade (Was so tempted to :p)

I had applied 2 coats of the shade and I got full opaque coverage with the 2 coats..it feels matte and gritty coz of the liquid sand technology..but I personally loved this finish.

The color did not dull out or fade..but on your right hand nails, if you cook or eat or something, the finish gets slightly different after 2-3 days..I am quite impressed by the staying power of these..it did not chip at all..and only after 4-5 days, I saw the color go off from the tips but not too visible or obvious. I am loving the staying power.

Also, as with all glitter nail polishes, I thought it would be a pain to remove these..but surprisingly and thankfully, it was not much of an issue and they came off pretty smoothly than expected.

Today I have swatches of Pink Champagne and the rest on each finger which I just changed after writing the review for a better description.

601 All That Glitters (Gold)- Dull Gold with silver shimmer

602 Dazzling Dive (Silver)- Bright Silver with silver shimmer..my fellow nail blogger Dhara Singh of The Happi Therapy found it to be an exact dupe of OPI Liquid Sand in It’s Frosty Outside.

603 Starry Nights (Black)- Deep Black with silver shimmer

604 Red Carpet- True Red with pink and silver shimmer (Good shade for bridal wear)

605 Matinee Mauve- Deep Pink Mauve with silver and pink shimmer

606 Paparazzi Purple- Bluish Purple with silver and blue shimmer

607 Pink Champagne- Champagne Pink with silver shimmer

608 Bling on the Blue- Sky Blue with silver shimmer

My favorites are the Pink Champagne, Silver and Gold. Would do an NOTD with Red and Silver soon..Red would make a nice wedding season shade.

Ok..so an announcement here..I am running a small contest on my twitter and Instagram in association with Maybelline where you guys need to send me your nailfies (Ya like selfies,nailfies :p) That is, your nail art or any nail of the day pictures using the Maybelline Color Show or the Color Show Glitter Mania range (or any Maybelline nail paint).

Maybelline The Colossal Kohl/Kajal Turquoise Review, Swatches, FOTD

So, if you follow me on my facebook page or Instagram, you must have seen this already ! The new Maybelline Colossal Turquoise Kajal..I had done a look with it..I received it in Feb but since I was supposed to be hush hush about it before, I was mum :p

Ok anyways, now since its officially launched and you can lay your hands on it too..let me review it for you guys..

What the Company claims: Go all out with glamourous eyes in the most exciting Colossal Kohl- Turquoise which LINES like a kohl and DEFINES like a liner. Turquoise kohl is a refreshing twist on the conventional black kohl and a must have fashion and beauty accessory. Here’s why you’ll love it:

Provides 12 hours of smudge free turquoise intensity
Color doesn’t smudge or fade
Enriched with nourishing ingredients and Vitamin E to soothe the eye
Features a unique tip that glides smoothly for an even application
100% suitable for your eyes

MRP: Rs.249/- for 0.35g (Buy on Flipkart here)

It comes in the same yellow retractable pencil packaging as the Maybelline Colossal Kajal Black..only with the metallic blue script on it..

Since turquoise blue is perfect for summers, Maybelline came up with this shade..

Its a metallic turquoise blue shade with some minute shimmer..I would not say its as pigmented as the black kajal..though its smooth but needs to be layered for the color to show up.

Also its a little soft and breakable..

The color stays for a good 6-7 hours on the upper lashline but on the lower lashline, it stays for 2-3 hours..before it fades off..there is no smudging or flakes issue.

Here I have done a winged liner with it on the upper lashline..and connected it to the lower lashline..and used the black Colossal Kajal on the waterlines..

And an FOTD :p

Pros:

1. Nice bright summer color.

2. I like the fuss free, travel packaging as the black kajal..with the metallic blue script.

3. Pops up the eyes.

4. Is smooth to use…no tugging.

5. Stays for 6-7 hours on the upper lashline.

6. Does not smudge or flake.

Cons:

1. Not that pigmented..needs to be layered.

2. Does not stay longer on the lower lashline.

Overall, I would say its a nice refreshing change from the usual blacks and browns..also this bright blue is actually perfect for summers for popping up the eyes. Definitely worth a try !

Maybelline came up with these pretty pink lipsticks called Pink Alert just before Valentine’s Day..and these were so perfectly launched for the apt day.

They come in pretty pink packaging..the packaging is the same as the Maybelline Colorsensational range..but prettier and pinker.

They are creamy and quite pigmented..and stay on for 4-5 hours..even after drinking and eating proper dinner..the color had just faded a little..I am quite impressed by the staying power.

POW1 is a blue based neon pink..a super bright pink..that does not even show the true color in picture..but looks amazing in person..MAC Pink Pigeon dupe..but do not wear this shade when flash is going to be used..I did the mistake..it makes you look ghastly with flash.



Here it is on moi..

Pros: 

1. The Packaging is pretty. 
2. They are very creamy and glide on well. 
3. Nicely pigmented and stays on better than other creamy lipsticks…they stay for around 4-5 hours and do not fade completely. 
4. Amazing pinks..I actually loved all 4 pinks ! This one is for pink lovers..
5. Economical. 
 
Cons: 
1. Pow1 looks ghastly with flash.
2. Looks blotchy when layered quiet a few times..you need to remove the previous first and reapply for touch ups.
 
Overall, this range has great pinks..and there is one for everyone..there is a neon pink, coral pink, fuchsia pink..you will find your favorite pink or pinks 😉 I am going to buy POW2 next..I love that one too..Highly Recommended !
