“If at first you don’t succeed, apply more lipstick!”

Hi everyone!
This is indeed going to be my very first post on New Love-Makeup and i am feeling great to be a part of this little community we got here.

So, i discovered Studiowest products about last year when i was casually walking through a Westside store and i am so glad i found a range which is so affordable and amazing at the same time.

Who doesn’t like makeup which looks good without burning a hole in your pocket?

On my recent web search, i discovered not a lot of reviews are being done on Studiowest products, so i thought why not give the brand the limelight it deserves?

The Studiowest cosmetics are divided into two ranges, Pure Passion and Maya

The Pure Passion range consists of beautiful corals, nudes and warm tone shades whereas the Maya range consists of glitter, dark tones and everything loud.

Pure Passion range can be considered as a range which consists of products which can be used on an everyday basis whereas the Maya range consists of products which can be used during parties or festivals or anytime you are going for that glam doll look.

Packaging: The product is packaged in a matte sleek black tube which is quite appeasing to the eyes. The lipstick bullet is encased in a golden metallic tube which is in perfect combination with the black. The cap is sturdy and travel friendly, you can slip the lipstick in your clutch and you’re ready to take over the world.

Claims: Indulge your lips with this long lasting lipstick. Comfortable and lightweight, it stays on for hours without drying out.

Price: Rs. 450/- for 3.5 gms

My take on Studiowest Pure Passion Long Lasting Lipstick in 621-Honey Glaze:

So, initially i got the lipstick in this shade for my mother because she only wears nude pinks and she wanted a new long lasting lipstick.

The lipstick is in a gorgeous nude mauve pink which can be worn every day. Anyone from fair to medium skin tone can wear this shade, it wouldn’t flatter darker skin tones though. The product sticks to its claim of longetivity since it stays for upto 6-7 hours even after a 3 course meal.  It doesn’t dry out the lips and i love how moisturizing it is.

The product isn’t completely matte, it is more of a moisturising matte or demi matte but i always pat translucent powder on top to turn the lipstick completely matte. I especially love how the lipstick smells, it is just so soothing. Even my mother loves the shade and the lasting power of the lipstick.

Pros of Studiowest Pure Passion Long Lasting Lipstick in 621- Honey Glaze:

Lasting power of the lipstick
Does not dry out the lips
Array of shades available
Moisturises the lips
Value for the money

Cons of Studiowest Pure Passion Long Lasting Lipstick in 621- Honey Glaze:

Only available in Westside stores across the country.

Rating: 4.5/5

Editor’s Note: I agree Simran, some of the shades in the Studiowest Pure Passion Range are really good. I have a few products from Studiowest and some are really good including the Pure Passion Lipstick. This shade is exactly like MAC Cosmo, an affordable dupe!

Have you tried Studiowest Makeup and/or lipsticks?

Beauty Fest at Westside with StudioWest

Beauty Fest at Westside with StudioWest

Hi guys,

Westside, Trent has recently announced the launch of StudioWest, an extensive range of make-up and bath & body products in July.

They had a ‘Beauty Festival’ at their Infiniti Mall, Andheri store where there is a dedicated area for all things makeup, beauty and hair! You can find all the brands here from Lakme, Colorbar, BBLUNT, LYN, Maybelline, L’Oreal Paris and of course StudioWest.

I absolutely loved how StudioWest was presented in a circular kiosk with all their products arranged beautifully section wise.

We had the celebrity makeup artist Pallavi Symons who demonstrated a few looks using the StudioWest products. She has also created a series of makeup videos for StudioWest in association with Glamrs.com, some of which you can see HERE, HERE and HERE.

They had a Beauty Spin Wheel with five different looks and Pallavi recreated the Cat Eye on Sonal Sagaraya and the Summer Brunch look on Samyukta.

StudioWest line consists of two ranges : Pure Passion and Maaya
– Pure Passion: With its lightweight textures, vibrant hues and flawless finishes encourages women to experiment with makeup and reinvent their look

I already have reviews of the Lakme Lip Pouts and LYN Nail Lacquers on the blog. I would be reviewing the StudioWest products soon 🙂

I love the fact that WestSide has launched complete range of makeup products and that too at an economical price.  And Pallavi Symons told us that they would be adding gel liners, palettes and all of those pretty soon! Yay for that 🙂

I only hope that they retail online too, so that can be more easily available.
