Lakme Absolute Matte Lip Pouts Review, Swatches

Hi guys,

I mentioned about the launch of the new Lakme Absolute Lip Pouts HERE. They have launches it in 6 matte and 10 creme shades. The matte shades are out already and the creme ones would follow soon.

What the Company claims: Lakme Absolute Lip Pout are a playful take on lip tints with excellent colour pay off. Lip Pout is your go-to lip tint for that effortlessly vibrant and playful look. So play with your pout & experiment with different lip trends.

MRP: Rs.650/- for 3.5g

Shades Available: 6

Tangerine Touch
Scarlet Rose
Magenta Magic
Raving Red
Pink Fantasy
Victorian Rose

Today I am reviewing the shades Tangerine Touch, Pink Fantasy and Raving Red.

On the pencils, they mention ‘Lip Tint’, I guess it is their old product Lakme Absolute Lip Tints which they have now re launched in these matte and glossy Lip Pouts version with a new name.

These come in a lip crayon format and have a twist up mechanism. The outer colors are according to the shades and all have a silver cap. The crayon format is very travel friendly too.

The texture and finish of this is completely matte and it kind of reminds me of the Inglot AMC Lip Pencils. These are decently pigmented but as expected very dry. You will definitely need a lip balm underneath and they are very unforgiving if you have dry lips and will accentuate them. So scrubbing lips is a must with these.

They stay for around 5-6 hours but do not survive meals, thankfully they fade off evenly. I think I expected more in terms of staying power and pigmentation. They transfer 1-2 times at first when they are not set which takes some time.

Pink Fantasy is a blue based rose pink

Tangerine Touch is a bright orange

Raving Red is a pinkish red

L-R: Tangerine Touch, Raving Red, Pink Fantasy

The colors are not something very unique or different, the usual normal basic shades, I feel there should have been 1-2 more shades like mauves, plums or bright Ruby Woo kind of red.

L-R: Pink Fantasy, Raving Red, Tangerine Touch,

I swatched the Pink Fantasy first, hence it looks better on the lips. By the time I swatched Tangerine Touch last, the scraping/removing the previous swatches made lips very dry, hence the Tangerine one looks patchy.

Here are these on me..

L-R: Tangerine Touch, Raving Red, Pink Fantasy

I also like Magenta Magic and Victorian Rose and would love to try those too. I absolutely love matte lipsticks and Pink Fantasy is my favourite out of these three, followed by Tangerine Touch.

I am so glad these are priced at Rs.650/- coz all new Lakme Absolute launches have been priced at around Rs.800 since quite some time.

Overall I would say, I am very happy that Indian companies are coming up with matte lipsticks and these convenient crayon forms. I only expected a bit more in terms of shades and staying power, I hope they come up with more shades. But at least they are priced decently, these are already out in the market and also available online.

Sinful Orange is a new addition in Colorbar Take Me As I Am Lip Colors..


Its a short chubby pencil with the matching shade color at the ends..it comes with its own sharpener..It is not like normal lip pencils..which are usually drier..this is more of a lipstick in pencil form..remember the Inglot AMC Lip Pencil..see HERE..those are matte and dry..this is creamy.

These Take Me As I am Lip Color Pencils are just like your moisturising lipsticks..they apply with ease..and are very comfy on lips without any dryness or heaviness..they give a glossy finish..which fades away after some time..but the color stays..it stays for a good 5-6 hours..and leaves behind a stain..



Sinful Orange is a bright yellow based orange…its a true sindoori orange..I cannot carry it fully opaque..I did try HERE, it ended up looking way too bright :/ I feel its quite similar to MAC Morange..and fairer and duskier girls..both extremes would rock this shade..I prefer a single swipe or layering/combining it with other shades..

Here is it on me..a single swipe..


Pros:

1. Moisturising and there is no dryness or heaviness.
2. Stay for a good 5-6 hours.
3. These pencils have a cute packaging and easy to carry along for touch ups too.
4. Comes with their own sharpener.
5. There are 9 shades available but there is something for everyone..an orange based red, a nude pink, peachy pink, pale pink, wine ,berry, nude brown, etc..
6. Matching ends to identify the shade in case you have more than one..

Cons:

1. Expensive !
2. Would finish off soon..since it needs to be sharpened and causes wastage too.

Overall I quite like these Take Me As I Am Lip Colors..a product which works both as a liner and lipstick and stays so well and is moisturising and can be carried along anywhere for touch ups..only this shade Sinful Orange is something I prefer wearing as a stain or combined..I think its a dupe of MAC Morange lipstick..
