LAKME ABSOLUTE MATTE MELT LIQUID LIP COLOR REVIEW

13:00:00

Hello angels,

Its been a long time since I reviewed any new product. Hope you all doing good.. Time really passes too fast so many things going at the moment which is keeping me busy. So LAKME ABSOLUTE MATTE MELT LIQUID LIPCOLOR was launched few days back and it was a complete surprise as finally lakme has stepped into the world of liquid matte lispticks. There are 8 shades available in this range I got 3 of them VINTAGE PINK, PEACH ROSE, WILD MAUVE. Like any other brand this product comes in a clear plastic round tube with a black cap and doe foot applicator. The formula has a mild fragrance which disappears on application. So it’s a creamy liquid formula which feels extremely light when applied on lips. It feels so comfortable like nothing has been applied on lips. The formula stays on for 6hrs including meals barely need touch ups. It doesn’t smudge or bleed. It turns to velvety matte finish in few seconds. It doesn’t stain lips. It has intense color pay off. Lighter shades are less pigmented compared to darker shades. Also the lip shade turns darker once it sets in. It’s a waterproof formula which come off with only makeup remover. If you have dry chapped lips you need to exfoliate and moisturize before application. It does make your lips dry but only to some extent you can always moisturize them before application. It gives complete coverage in 1 swipe even on pigmented lips.

OVERALL I loved the bold shade range also the packaging is quite simple and travel friendly. They are reasonable price and all shades are suitable for Indian skin tone. They are highly pigmented and texture is feather light on lips which lasts longer than any other lipsticks. Which shade are you going to pick up? Comments down below.

NEW LAKME ABSOLUTE ARGAN OIL SERUM FOUNDATION & LUXE MATTE LIPSTICK REVIEW

05:52:00

Hello beauties,

These weekend I have something exciting to talk about. Recently LAKME introduced NEW ARGAN OIL RANGE OF MAKEUP and I am going to review some of the products from this range. The range comprises of LAKME ABSOLUTE LUXE MATTE LIPSTICKS, ARGAIN OIL SERUM, ARGAN OIL GEL CREME & ARGAN OIL IN SERUM FOUNDATION.

As you all know I am a foundation girl I love trying new formulas and it was much expected that I pick up the New argan oil serum foundation with spf 45.

I am already in love with this product despite of so limited shades I picked up IVORY CREAM which was for fair skin tone having warm to neutral undertones. It was the best I could choose for my skin tone. Now when I heard a argan oil serum I was pretty sure this is going to be really fun using on everyday basis. Also it contains spf 45 which means you don’t have to wear any additional sunscreens. This foundation is perfect for normal to combination skin. It moisturizes my skin at the same time gets quickly absorbed into skin not making it too oily or cakey.

It perfectly blends without having to use any moisturizer. This foundation stays well for 4-5 hrs it starts wearing off near my nose area. That’s because I have a oily t zone. When I use it with a primer it stays for 7-8 hrs may be just a touch up with a compact on my tzone area and I am good to go for more 7hrs. Now this foundation makes my skin look brighter and it just gives me natural finish which means neither matte not glossy.

It adds radiance to my skin doesn’t clog my pores. Has medium coverage which helps to cover even dark spots to some extent. It comes in a golden bottle packaging with a dropper. So I just take a dropper and directly put some drops on my face later blend it with a flat kabuki brush. I loved the formula and texture is almost like a serum first and when you start blending it looks more creamy. Once it sets in totally looks fine. My skin looks more hydrated and fresh.

It keeps my skin shine free while adding a healthy glow to skin.

Lakme always comes up with very limited shade range so you can really have to try your luck for getting a proper shade.

Coming to the LAKME ABSOLUTE LUXE MATTE LIPSTICKS WITH ARGAN OIL so I could see these gold slim lipstick tubes which looks really attractive to me and totally luxe. There were 10 shades in this range I choose to try two of them ROUGE LOVE & ROSY LIPS. I was so happy using the foundation that my expectations with this lipsticks were too high. Well it wasn’t a complete disappointment but it just didn’t worked for me.

I felt the formula of this lipsticks were bit waxy and less of creamy mattes. I was thinking of more luxurious formula.

I really had to drag them to give a proper application. Also the formula was bit drying on my lips. If you have dry lips you probably won't like the texture of these lipsticks.

They are of complete matte finish and are almost transfer proof. It starts fading away from the center of my lips. The formula is buildable but it doesn’t give complete coverage in 1 swipe. Staying power for this lipsticks is 4-5hrs. They are not so highly pigmented. I really love when lipsticks are bold and fully loaded with pigments.

I felt the previous range of argan oil lipsticks were far more better. The price is 800/-which I think is not worth spending on it.

ROSY LIPS Soft muted pink for every type of skin tone.

ROUGE LOVE Its a bright bold pink having warm tones. It brightens up any complexion. Its my personal favorite shade in the range.

HYDRATING MOUSSE FOUNDATION

NEW LAKME ABSOLUTE SKIN NATURAL HYDRATING MOUSSE FOUNDATION REVIEW

04:28:00

Hello angels,

We all know that hydration is a key for perfect skin. Almost every skin expert advice us to have enough of water intake and proper moisturizer for a flawless skin. We tend to use lots of makeup which may or may not be hydrating to skin and so we have to always use a additional moisturizer. Here LAKME has introduced SKIN NATURAL HYDRATING MOUSSE FOUNDATION so now you have your makeup with 60-70% of water in it.

This mousse comes in a black plastic pump bottle similar too Lakme absolute illuminating foundation.

It has a citrus fragrance in it which I totally love I feel it’s a signature fragrance for Lakme absolute foundation. There are ONLY 4 shades available, for my skin tone IVORY CREAM was the only option. The texture is soft mousse like which blends into skin effortlessly. You can use your fingers or brush to blend in. It doesn't conceal my dark circles but it does help to cover some of my acne marks. This foundation is extremely lightweight and comfortable. It could be more hydrating to give a little dewy skin.

This foundation is best for normal to combination skin type. Well for dry skin additional moisturiser may be needed and for oily skin this can be used with a finishing powder. I have a combination skin and I feel my T ZONE gets oily after few hrs of application. Its better to use a loose powder to set the foundation on TZONE. It gives light to medium coverage. For me its more like a natural finish foundation. The formula is buildable but for everyday use I like applying just one layer.

It doesn’t give matte finish and little quantity is enough to cover entire face or neck. This foundation doesn’t have any SPF. So you will have to wear your spf separately.

If you have dry skin this product will cling on to dry patches. The formula doesn’t settle into fine lines. Though it creases around the nose and smile lines.

The formula is not long lasting for oily skin but for normal to dry skin or combination skin it stays well for 5-6hrs. The formula is non comedogenic.

OVERALL I am really confused whether I like this foundation or not its basically for girls who wants a natural finish with not much coverage and for everyday use. Also for girls who are already blessed with normal and almost clear skin. Though you can always use a concelar over it. Well for me it does look cakey when I apply more quantity. I wish it could be more hydrating so its easy to build the product on to skin.

NEW LAKME ABSOLUTE ARGAN OIL LIPSTICKS REVIEW

12:23:00

Hello beauties,

I have got something new and exciting today. Its lakme absolute Argan oil lipstick review which has been recently launched in LAKME FASHION WEEK 2017.

This lipsticks which are infused with rich moroccan argan oil is currently talk of the town. Designer Anita Dongre’s gold collection was completely inspired on lakme absolute liquid gold lipsticks. So 2017 is all about gold most of Indian girls love gold whether its for jewellery outfit or bags. And when it comes to makeup gold has always ruled for years.

This lipsticks are in glossy golden tube packaging to give a feel of liquid gold. They have a flat slant top like a lakme absolute matte lipsticks.

The packaging looks classy though its of plastic it doesn't give a cheap feel.

L-R SILK BLUSH, PEACHES AND CREAM, LUSH ROSE

The lipsticks are infused with argan oil which will help your lips stay moisturize for long time.

The texture is so creamy and soft glides effortlessly on lips. Darker shades gives even application while lighter shades needs multiple swipes for better coverage and application.

This lipsticks can be used on everyday basis as they will not dry out your lips and keep them hydrated. On application they feel glossy but after few mins They turn too satin finish having some shine to it. It gives complete opacity with 1-2 swipes but for lighter shades I like to layer them off. They have good color pay off. The formula is thick enough like lip balm to hold on to lips.

The formula feel light and comfortable to wear for whole day.They have a mild sweet fragrance which disappears on application.

Coming to staying power it needs touch ups if you eat or drink as they are more of creamy texture it tends to transfer little bit. This lipsticks are are rich in pigments some of the shades are very intense.

They don’t bleed or budge if you want them to stay longer use a lip pencil.

They neither accentuate fine lines nor the formula settles into fine lines.

This formula are non drying and doesn’t give any sticky or slippery feel to it.

Overall recommended I loved the shade range the texture formula feels so buttery on lips. I liked how effortlessly they glide on lips. The benefits of argan oil keep my lips moisturized for long time. My lips feel softer smoother and conditioned after using this lipsticks. This lipsticks are pricey and we get only 3.4gms but that’s ok because I find the formula great for summers when your lips already feel dry. Pick some neutral colors instead of tinted lip balms for this summer. Let me know which shade you would go for ? Have you tried them yet?

PRICE 750/-INR BUY NOW at NYKAA

LAKME ABSOLUTE ARGAN OIL LIPSTICKS are available in 15 shades which are suitable for Indian skin tones. The shades that I got are SILK BLUSH, PEACHES AND CREAM AND LUSH ROSE

SILK BLUSH is beautiful soft pink shade it’s a shade I like to wear on summer days.

Peaches and cream is more like a peachy nude shade having warm tones. If you want something for everyday office use its a perfect shade.

Lush rose is beautiful vibrant pink. I don’t remember when last I picked up such amazing pink shade.
