The shades added this time are:

L-R: 15, 16, 17, 18

15 Stephanie Plum which is a mauve plum

16 Claire Underwood which is a yellow brown based orange

17 Brandy Herrington which is a rusty reddish pink

18 Rosalind which is a nude rose

L-R: 15, 16, 17, 18
L-R: 15, 16, 17, 18

First three shades would work for all skin tones and the last shade would work for fair to medium skin tones. Stephanie Plum and Brandy Herrington are my favourites. 

All the 4 shades are perfect, everyday wear shades. Rosalind would be a nice MLBB for fair skin tones, it’s a peachy pink. Brandy Herrington looks more like a rosy brown and is an universally flattering, wearable shade. It’s neither nude nor too bright. Claire Underwood is more brown than orange. Stephanie Plum has the perfect mix of mauve and plum.

Overall, I loved all the four shades. Sugar always brings amazing colors and their formulation of lip products is fabulous. I am a big fan of the Matte As Hell Lip Crayons range and definitely recommend these.

Sugar Blend The Rules Eyeshadow Quads Review, Swatches, Looks

Sugar Blend The Rules Eyeshadow Quads Review, Swatches, Looks

Hi guys,

Sugar Cosmetics just launched 18 eyeshadow quads and two eyeshadow palettes. Each eyeshadow quad is priced at Rs.699/- and the palette at Rs.1599/- (Buy HERE)

GET DISCOUNT USING ‘BTXSUGAR’ on https://in.sugarcosmetics.com

I am talking about the eyeshadow quads here but the palettes also have same shades, most of the quads also have repeated shades. You can pick a quad/palette as per your needs. Palettes are divided into two- day time neutrals/warms/browns and more cool toned/bright/smokey/night time palette.

Coming to the quads:

  • 01 Stronger
  • 02 Believe
  • 03 Escapade
  • 04 Chandelier
  • 05 Irreplacable
  • 06 Disturbia
  • 07 Applause
  • 08 Respect
  • 09 Diamonds
  • 10 Waterfalls
  • 11 Promiscuous
  • 12 Complicated
  • 13 Paparazzi
  • 14 Skyfall
  • 15 Bootylicious
  • 16 Roar
  • 17 Goldeneye
  • 18 Scandalous

I have 04 Chandelier, 05 Irreplaceable, 07 Applause, 08 Respect, 13 Paparazzi, 16 Roar 

The packaging is cardboard and super light weight, they do not come with a mirror, just a dual sided sponge tip applicator.

The eyeshadows are super pigmented and buttery, the metallic ones are extremely soft and are best applied with your fingers. Even the matte shades are very pigmented and soft, blend easily and there is no fall out with any shadows.

I am highly impressed with the colours and pigmentation, they have some perfect neutrals to blend in the crease and amazing metallic shades for the lid. All the shades would work well for Indian warm skin tones and most of the shades are also Indian wedding/festive looks appropriate. There are also blues and plums for general wear, night time looks, neutral mattes for office wear, basically a quad for every occasion. 

The only problem is repeated shades, I would have preferred launching just palettes or 5-6 quads with different shades. Here you cannot buy 2-3 eyeshadow quad and not have at least one eyeshadow repeated. It doesn’t make sense to have same shades if you want to buy 2-3 quads and like all other shades in the quads. I personally won’t invest in 2 quads even if one eyeshadow is repeated, because I prefer owning different shades. And most of you would think the same.

Best they could do, (or they can still) is to have a separate pan and separate singles to customize and make your own palette. Let the price remain the same.

Each quad is 5g, so each shadow is 1.25g though it looks like a 2g pan width wise, it is not very deep inside. I tried to depot the shadows as I didn’t want to keep the entire eyeshadow quad with repeated shades for 1-2 shades in it. One crumbled and one was dented, so I didn’t. I managed to depot one, and one quad has all same shades, so I am giving away two of the eyeshadow quads on my YouTube channel, join here below.

Here are all the quads..

Chandelier
Irreplacable
Applause
Respect
Paparazzi
Roar

Swatches..

Chandelier
Irreplacable
Applause
Respect
Paparazzi
Roar

I created a plum pink smokey eye with Applause and a matte peachy look with 16 Roar using just the two matte shades.

Applause
Two Mattes in Roar

Overall I would say I am highly impressed with the quality of the eyeshadows and they are the best available right now for this price, only con would be the combination of shades in the quads. I would recommend getting the daytime palette as it has almost all their best shades and you could make more use of it on an everyday basis.

April 2017 Fab Bag Review & Unboxing, 10% Off Discount Code

Hi guys,

I got my April Fab Bag today, the theme for this month is Spring Fling.

MRP: Rs.599/- per month (Buy HERE)

It’s a pretty floral print bag and quite thick and sturdy. Goes perfect with the Spring Theme

Products I got:

  • Sugar As Nude As It Gets SPF 15 Compact- Rs.699/-
  • Ayorma Radiance Glow Deep Exfoliator 10g
  • Hedonista Fresh Face Scrub 25ml
  • Sand For Soapaholics Heavenly Dew Bathing Bar- Rs.275/- for 100g

Sugar’s new launch, the Compact Powder is a part of this month’s bag and you get the full sized compact. It comes in 3 shades and I chose the mid shade 02 Cappuccino. I like the matte black packaging, it’s quite sturdy. It comes with a sponge and a mirror.

Ayorma Exfoliating Scrub looks a little abrasive, I won’t use it for my face. But if you use walnut based scrubs, you will like it.

I loved the Hedonista Fresh Face Scrub with Strawberry and Coconut extracts. Smells refreshing and nice, this one is mild enough to be used on the face.

Sand for Soapaholics soap looks really pretty and again coconut based. Spring theme has all coconut based products, so apt.

Total value of all the products in this month’s bag comes to around Rs.1300/- I would have liked one more product in the bag ideally.

If you want to try the new Sugar Compact, then you can go for this month’s bag.

Sugar Cosmetics Smudge Me Not Liquid Lipsticks Review, Swatches

Sugar Cosmetics Smudge Me Not Liquid Lipsticks Review, Swatches

Hi guys,

Sugar Cosmetics is adding new products to their collection and this time it’s matte liquid lipsticks! I love Sugar lip products and hence was quite excited to try these out. Read on to know how they fare..

There is also a video if in case you are interested in that..

Size: 4.5ml

Shades Available: 10

  • 01 Brazen Raisin
  • 02 Brink of Pink
  • 03 Tan Fan
  • 04 Plum Yum
  • 05 Rust Lust
  • 06 Tangerine Queen
  • 07 Rethink Pink
  • 08 Wine and Shine
  • 09 Suave Mauve
  • 10 Drop Dead Red

I have 4 shades with me..

Brazen Raisin: Looking to announce every entry of yours without saying a word? Up your lip game to bold burgundy with the Brazen Raisin shade that’s as addictive as it is badass!

Brink of Pink: Raring to have a carefully careless day with your BFFs where good times aren’t measured by the hour? Sport Brink of Pink with its dusty mauve hue to amp up the smile on your lips and the laughter in your heart!

Tan Fan: A fan of deep-toned taupe that defines the timeless nude of the 90s? Get your hands on Tan Fan with its muted brown and pink that will give you the perfect look to pair with smokey eyes

Rust Lust: Walk into every room like you own it with Rust Lust – a terracotta red shade that strikes a delicate balance between the reds and the browns to make your pout stand out without a hint of doubt!

The packaging is exactly like the Maybelline Lip Polish. It is transparent with a black cap and the clear product inside in the shape of a lipstick bullet at the end.

The wand is slightly small and not doe foot, but that help in being precise on the corners though. You do not get a lot of product in one dip as the dispensing hole is narrow and you may have to dip twice to cover the lips well.

It has a faint vanilla scent which is quite nice. Formula wise, it is super pigmented and neither runny nor too goopy. Glides on well and easy to apply. It takes about 1-2 minutes to dry completely and once set, it won’t budge or move. So be careful while applying.

Initially it may feel super drying, but lips get used to it in about 10-15 minutes, if you are used to matte liquid lipsticks though. If you prefer satin, creamy finish liquid lipsticks, this is not for you! These are drying and you need exfoliated, moisturised lips for using these. If you have very dry lips, these would accentuate the dryness even more.

The formula is pretty similar to Colourpop Ultra Matte Liquid Lipsticks. If you prefer the Ultra Satin ones, you will find these drying. Once dried, these don’t budge at all! No transfer, no smudging, the color ain’t going anywhere. In fact, even while removing these, you would need a good oil based makeup remover to take them off.

T: Brazen Raisin, Brink of Pink
B: Tan Fan, Rust Lust

They do fade away from the inside part of the lips though, like all matte liquid lipsticks. Especially when you have oily, greasy food. They stay for 4-5 hours before fading from the inside part, but still look as good overall. You will just need to reapply on the inside part.

I love the fact that they have nudes, pinks, reds, plums, all colors. And also they have priced it very reasonably! I was expecting 699-799 as they usually have that range, I am glad it is around 500 this time.

I would recommend the Sugar Liquid Lipsticks only if you are used to wearing matte formulas and are ok with the drying part. But that does come with the advantage of long staying, non transfer color and no touch ups 😀

I love each of the 4 shades, but Tan Fan and Rust Lust are just amazing! I definitely recommend these two, they are must haves.

Also if you order Fab Bag, you would be getting one of these next month 😀 You get to choose your own shade and I have chosen Suave Mauve. I would be swatching that in the Fab Bag post or adding it here, so watch out for that shade.

These were the shades I found a little unique and different, apart from the usual reds and pinks.

What do you feel about the new Sugar Smudge Me Not Liquid Lipsticks? Your favourite shade?
