NEW SEPHORA LIPSTORIES LIPSTICK REVIEW

10:59:00

Hello angels,

Today I am going to review new lipstick from Sephora its known as Lip Stories inspired by real life things like best moments, wild adventures, magical memories etc. These lipsticks are here to celebrate life's beautiful moments. They come in a colorful packaging where each shade represents a story. There are 40 shades in matte, cream and metallic finish. I choose 1 matte and 2 cream finish lipsticks. A little magic is matte lipstick having creamy texture which glides on effortlessly. It has high color pay off. It doesn’t leave any stain and doesn’t contain any fragrance. Inspite of being a matte finish lipstick it does transfer and stays for only 4-5 hrs. It does start fading while leaving behind stain. Touch ups are required after meal. It gives full coverage in just one swipe. The formula is light weight and moisturizing which makes it comfortable to wear for long hrs.

Coming to cream finish lipstick They are highly pigmented and are quite moisturizing. It does transfer and are not long lasting. It doesn’t feather but it does smudge. Color pay off is excellent with just one swipe gives complete coverage. It doesn't last long and fades way with every meal. It stayed for only 3-4 hrs. The formula doesn't contain fragrance and doesn't settle into fine lines.

Overall I was impressed with the packaging. I loved the matte formula lipsticks more. Also the variety of shades left me speechless as there was wide option to choose form. From bold reds, to pretty pinks and deep purples it had all.

I found them reasonably priced when compared to other Sephora lipsticks.

These lipsticks are for real life and not just for ring light so grab your favourite shade and share your story with tag#lipstories.

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.

SUGAR MATTE AS HELL CRAYON NEW SHADES REVIEW

00:04:00

Hello pretty gals,

Yes you heard right SUAGR AS MATTE HELL CRAYON is back with NEW SHADES. Finally they heard our request for getting new shades in this range. There are 6 more shades now available to choose from. All of the shades are very much in trend and suitable to all indian skin tones.

I choose Elle woods which is a medium toned brown shade for fair skin while for other skin tones it looks more like a browny nude. Like every girl in town can go with this shade. I totally loved using this shade as its not too dark nor too light but a perfect brown having balance of warm & cool tones.

Another one is VIOLA gals are already raving about this shade. Its a perfect mauve for everyday. You can use them for day or night time paired with smokey eyes. Its fastest selling shade and a must have for this season.

Talking about the formula its similar to their previous lip crayon shades. The formula is creamy having soft and smooth texture. it glides effortlessly with immense pigmentation. Just one swipe to give you complete coverage. This lip crayon completely cover your uneven lip tones. Its not drying but rather giving a comfortable and weightless application. The formula holds pretty well on lips. Once the formula sets in to semi matte finish it doesn’t transfer much. The color is buildable. Well I found this formula to be little more moisturizing then the previous one. Also while sharpening the tip sometimes breaks off. It doesn’t contain any fragrance. It doesn’t accentuate fine lines. The formula can cling on to dry patches so exfoliate your lips before application.

It has high color pay off. Staying power is for 8 hrs and fades from the centre of lips.

Overall I do recommend MATTE AS HELL lip crayon as they have beautiful shades. The formula is quite long lasting and it doesn’t leave behind any stain except for darker shades like poison envy which fade away leaving a stain. They last for me around 8 hrs. And I barely need to reapply though I carry them wherever I go. They are also very easy to apply this is what I love about lip crayons. I was expecting the formula to be little less creamier and softer. Just so I can avoid wastage of the product while sharpening. With every lip crayon they also give you a free sharpener.
