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 MASABA LIP POUT MATTE REVIEW

01:19:00

Hello gals,

I am back again with NEWLY LAUNCHED LAKME ABSOLUTE LIP POUT MATTE.

These matte crayons were just recently launched in collaboration with the designer MASABA GUPTA.

The range is basically inspired by 90's sugar candies and the packaging of the crayon is bright colorful and you can play around with them.

There are 10 exciting shades in this range. The shade names are also quite resembling to candies.

So gals are you ready to mix and match and play with this colorful candy crayons.

Lets take a look.

There are 10 shades which is divided into 5 groups. Each color group consist of two shades. They come in a colorful box packaging with a chubby stick inside.

These crayons are twist up so you don’t have to sharpen them. It’s a limited edition collection so if you love lip crayons do try them out before it goes out of stock.

I picked up 3 shades from 3 different groups. Shades are SMOKEY RED, BUBBLE PINK & ROLE A COLA. Bubble pink is a beautiful mid tone pink shade will be suitable for girl in town.

Smokey red is a bright vibrant fun red having warm orange tones.

Role a cola is a very different deep purple shade. I haven’t tried such shade ever so really excited to try this one.

The formula is almost similar to their previous lip tint matte collection. It doesn’t contain any fragrance. The smokey red has a special ingredient which is a mango butter. All lip crayons are non drying on lips and stay really well for 5-6 hrs. Its doesn’t stain my lips. The formula doesn’t cling to dry patches. The texture is quite soft and smooth on application. You don’t need to drag them inspite of being a matte formula. It gives a complete matte finish in one swipe. The intensity of pigments is very good giving high color pay off. It gives opacity and coverage in just 1-2 swipes. The color is buildable so you can do that for getting more deeper bolder colors. These lip crayon don’t transfer much. Also due to some of the ingredient it gives a moisturizing effect to lips. They are very easy to remove. Also it doesn’t accentuate fine lines on lips.

Overall recommended I loved the packaging its really fun to use this crayons. Also they are matte which makes me more obsessed with them. They really have all kind of shades nude orange purple pinks and red. Also you can use two colors for creating fun look. The shades are so versatile every skin tone can carry them well.

NEW LAKME 9TO 5 PRIMER +MATTE LIPSTICK REVIEW SWATCHES

11:10:00

Hello beauty lovers,

Lakme has launched 30 stunning shades in NEW 9 TO5 PRIMER +MATTE LIPSTICK range.

30 shades is a great option for various skin tones. The formula has been reinvented from their previous 9 to 5 creaseless range.

So you have beautiful pinks, reds, brown and nudes etc. they are available at affordable prices. So you can grab more then 1 shade.

Well I have got 4 amazing shades FUCHSIA FILE, MAPLE MAP, ROSY MIND, ROSY SUNDAY

Product description: Highly pigmented shades that have a rich and intense color payoff. Delivers a fine matte finish on your lips that lasts upto 12 hours. Sets a flawless base and evens out your lips for a smooth application. For a precision pro matte finish, line your lips with the Lakme 9 to 5 lip liner before applying the Lakme 9 to 5 primer matte lip color.

The packaging is very similar to their previous 9 to5 creaseless range. The lipstick comes in rose gold glossy opaque tube. I always prefer matte packaging over the glossy ones. Also I don't feel the packaging is sturdy. But they are quite reasonably priced.

The texture is creamy and formula is quite light weight. It need little effort for application on dry lips. Once the formula sets in this lipstick gives a complete matte effect. The formula doesn’t settle into fine lines. The texture is soft and gives little hydration to lips. I didn’t use any lipbalm prior to application. Some of the shades gives streaky application and it accentuates dry patches on lips. The formula holds on to lips pretty well. It doesn’t smudge or bleed. The fragrance is same as compared to creaseless lipstick. Now the formula contains primer which should help for lipstick to stay longer than usual. This lipstick stays for 4-5 hrs it does fade from the centre of lips. The formula does transfer and it doesn't provide any benefit of primer. It doesn’t leave any stain behind. You can take them off easily. They are very comfortable on lips having non drying formula. It doesn’t contain any shimmer like previous range. Pigmentation is fair enough some of the shades are really intense and give complete coverage. Well some of the shades you may need 2-3 swipes for opacity and to build the color.

Overall recommended they are comfort matte lipsticks it doesn’t last long as you expect it to be. But they are pretty good and have amazing shades which goes on almost every skin tones. I personally liked using them on everyday basis. They are available at affordable prices.

NEW LAKME ENRICH LIP CRAYONS REVIEW SWATCHES

12:40:00

Hello angels,

Today I have something new in lippies to review. You heard right they are NEW LAKME ENRICH LIP CRAYONS it has still not been launched everywhere and I am really excited to try them out. They are available in 10 shades I got two of them as they are not available at the lakme counters I had to purchase them online also I was not so sure about the shades. I got one in BABY PINK and another one in MAUVE MATTERS.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Get smooth and matte finish lips with this lip colour crayon by Lakmé that is infused with mineral powders. It has a soft texture and is available in 10 gorgeous shades that suit all Indian skin tones. It also has a rich blend of olive and jojoba oil that simultaneously conditions your lips. For your convenience, the all new Lakmé Enrich Lip Crayon comes with a sharpener.

So these lip crayons basically comes in a very affordable price range. Its only 185/-INR for each which is so inexpensive. Most of the shade comprises of pinks and red. And as its reasonably priced anyone can get this chubby stick in various color shades.They come with a free sharpener which is a 2 in1. The packaging is color coded so its easy to identify the shades.

These lipsticks are soft and creamy in texture they have a semi matte effect. Some of the shades do contain shimmer. I personally don’t like shimmer in my lipsticks but if it adds sheen to my lips I am fine with it. They are bit hydrating to lips but still if you have dry lips you need to apply a lipbalm. The formula seems to be non drying. They feel quite comfortable and light on lips. It contains mild sweet fragrance which doesn't last. The staying power of these lippies is 3-4hrs it doesn’t last well like other mate chubby crayons. It tends to fade away from the center of lips. However I didn’t observe any smudging or bleeding of the product. The formula doesn’t settle into fine lines. Coming to its pigmentation this product is buildable so it gives medium coverage with good color pay off. I wont say they are so opaque or heavily pigmented as it need 3-4 swipes to give a good amount of coverage. They don’t stain my lips most of the shades are suitable for Indian skin tones.

Overall recommended I really don’t have any complaints except for their formula which could be more pigmented and I wish they didn't have fine shimmers. But as you know they are available at so low prices you really cant resist to grab them.. so gals try them out and let me know your favourite shades.
