MATTE LIPSTICK TRENDING SEPHORA WONDERFUL CUSHION MATTE LIP CREAM REVIEW

07:36:00

WONDERFUL ROSY

Hello beautiful,

Sephora Wonderful Cushion Matte Lip Cream is a matte liquid lipstick with a cushion applicator. Along with cushion matte lip cream they have also launched cushion foundation and cream blushers. From Korean brands to USA cushion foundation is trending crazily this days.

So coming on to the packaging it comes in a baby pink color tube with a round rubbery applicator and black cap I personally loved this girlie sweet packaging feels like I am into 16.

It also reminds me of too faced melted liquid lipsticks. But Wonderful cushion feel more like a matte stain to me. They have got limited shades like fuschia, red and pinks. I picked up Wonderful Rose shade as it was more of muted pink then going for something bright.

Lip stains look better when the shades are dusty or in nude pinks OR peach I wish they had more color options.

Wonderful Rose can go well on fair skin tones but may look little brighter for most of skin tones. Please do try them before buying.

The formula is enriched with shea butter to give a smooth application. You just need to press the tube so the product comes out of the cushion applicator and then just glide across the lips with the applicator. This applicator helps in effortless application without any mess. The pigmentation is good enough so one swipe can give you stain lip look but if you have pigmented lips you may need to add 1-2 layers for complete coverage. The formula is non drying to lips and doesn’t give patchy application. It doesn’t give much hydration to lips but also you don’t need to apply a lip balm. The formula doesn’t adhere to dry patches. It has a high color pay off and gives you a just kissed look which is something new and I haven’t tried before.

It doesn’t flake or bleed nor does it settle into fine lines. Its super light on lips and feels so comfortable wearing them. I could totally wear them for whole day it feels almost like nothing has been put on my lips. The texture is in between lip soufflé and matte cream. It gives a super matte finish which almost stays well for 4-5hrs. I loved the formula texture and packaging. It has a fragrance almost like a fruit candy which disappears on application.

Overall recommended.

The formula doesn’t transfer at all. It’s a kiss proof waterproof formula. The shade options are limited and I don’t find them wearable. But you can definitely try a red shade in this it would be much better for most of the skin tones. Its quite pricey but if you like having a just kissed look wonderful cushion matte is all about that.

If you have already tried them or would like to try out please let me know in comments below.

NEW AVON TRUE COLOR PERFECTLY MATTE LIPSTICK REVIEW

00:19:00

Hello angels,

So recently Avon launched True color perfectly matte lipstick range. If you following me on insta story than you already know I picked up the two most bright and vibrant shade from this range. They have limited shades having pink brown reds and orange. Vibrant melon and Electric pink are two shades which I loved the most. I know it’s a fall time and this shades remind much of summer but sometimes you do need change form usual dark fall colors.

So this lipstick has a simple packaging it comes in a black cardboard box. The tube is square in shape black & glossy with shade name written on the bottom of tube.

I was really attracted with this shades so I had to try them anyhow. They are priced 479/-INR in the market full of liquid mattes this seem to be quite affordable.

They are kind of soft creamy semi matte finish lipsticks which glide on easily. Also it has a velvety texture may be due to silicone in it. It doesn’t give you a powder matte finish like liquid mattes neither they are hard on lips where you need to drag or pull like some of the mac mattes.

They have a good color pay off and gives complete coverage in 2-3 swipes. The colors are bold and bright but quite wearable. They don’t go patchy but if you have dry chappy lips you need to exfoliate them. It doesn’t accentuate fine lines. Also it has a good pigmentation. Some of the shades look like mac dupes.

They stay on for good 5hrs with the meals. Darker shades do fade away leaving some stain.

Also they are quite comfortable on lips. Doesn’t feel drying they also help in moisturizing lips to some extent. It doesn’t cake or crack. You can build the coverage by layering it with more swipes.

This lipsticks do have mild fragrance to it which disappears on application.

Both the shades are rich and vibrant so you will exactly get the same color on lip as you seen in the tube. The formula doesn’t settle into fine lines.

Overall recommended. This lipsticks are like a soft matte and doesn’t dry out your lips. but I wanted the colors to be more saturated as the have claimed. If you have pigmented lips go for darker shades as medium to light shades wont be able to give you complete coverage. What I loved is the soft silicone velvety feel that it gives on lips.

MAYBELLINE V FACE CONOTUR BY FACE STUDIO REVIEW SWATCHES

00:33:00

Hello angels,

So here it is are you excited about it? because I am totally excited to review this amazing New collection form Maybelline. It was a great surprise for me when I saw them first at Maybelline counter. And It seemed like for a min as if Maybelline has started launching such professional range of products. This range is V FACE CONTOUR BY FACE STUDIO so following products helps you to get that V Face in just NY 1 MIN.

There are 3 products I will be talking about MAYBELLINE CONTOUR DUO STICK

MAYBLLINE V FACE CONOTUR BLUSH, AND V FACE DUO POWDER.

All of the products come in a black and silver glossy packaging.

They are great to use on the go such a cute travel friendly packaging. It won't occupy much of space like other contour kits do. You can also carry them in your party wear clutch. This products can turn your office wear look into party glam within few mins all you need to do is carry them in your bag.

I loved this duo stick it has a contouring on one side and highlighter shade on the other. It comes in two shades. I got light to medium which is suitable for fair to medium skin tones.

With the contouring shade I applied lightly on my hollow of cheeks, temples, jawline and sides of nose. It blends beautifully into skin. The shade is just perfect for my skin tone. I used the highlighter on highest points like bridge of nose and cheekbones. The texture of highlighter is creamy and goes almost powdery when blended. It’s a very subtle and soft highlighter but gives a nice sheen. Though I liked contouring shade much more. The contouring shade is like warm toasted almond having little orange in it.

Moving on to the duo powder it comes in a round shape compact with a full size mirror inside. It has two levels first having the powder and second has a small brush for applying this powder when on go. So the powder is in V shape lighter shade in middle while darker on sides. I picked up LIGHT TO MEDIUM SHADE. They had one more shade for darker tones. You can use both the powder all over face and then use the darker shade on contouring areas while lighter on highlighted areas. The powder has a mineralize skin finish like formula.

Finally comes the blush it doesn’t have mirror inside it’s a small rectangular compact with a brush inside. There is highlighting shade a blush shade and warm bronzer shade.

So it doesn’t contain any shimmer and are almost like matte powders. The color pay off is ok. But easily blendable and pigmented. You can definitely layer them off.

This blush is in peach shade they do have two more shades pink and brown. After contouring I add a swipe of darker shade to contouring area and add some blush on my cheeks. They are well pigmented and give me a nice peachy color to my cheeks. The highlighting shade was more like very light peach color powder so if you want you can just lightly apply on you cheek bones or give it a skip. I was already happy with the duo stick highlighter so I skipped using lighter shade from the blush.
This all contouring products can be used together also and individually too.

OVERALL RECOMMENDED. This all products make contouring so much easy. If you are a starter you need to have them. And if you already love contouring than this will be a best to use while you can save your time. They are available at such affordable prices. I absolutely loved this technique of getting v face in less than a MIN. if you have not started contouring yet you get to do it with Maybelline. MAKE YOUR CONTOURING GAME STRONG.

LAKME 9TO5 WEIGHTLESS MOUSSE LIP AND CHEEK COLOR REVIEW SWATCHES

08:53:00

Hello Lovelies,

The moment I heard Lakme is launching matte lip creams I was super excited and thrilled to try them out. NEW WEIGHTLESS MOUSSE LIP AND CHEEK COLOR comes in 10 different shades and Its a part of lakme 9to5 range. This reminds me much of Nyx Soft Matte lip cream and my obsession over it. Well girls now you have matte lip creams by LAKME. I was just hoping they have good shade range. I got them online without checking out any swatches. But when it arrived and I tried out I was just so amazed I think this is one of the best lakme lip product. Now they come in pink opaque tube and a rose gold glossy cap. I think they could have made the packaging more attractive. It has a slant doe foot applicator almost like a pear shaped. It gives the most comfortable and easy application. There are 10 shades each available for INR 575/- which is quite affordable.

I picked up 3 beautiful shades BLUSH VELVET, ROSE TOUCH & PLUM FEATHER.

All of the shades have a autumn feel to it. So if you are looking for matte lip creams in Indian version then you exactly know how to grab them. The formula is soft creamy and super light in texture. Its not at all streaky on application. It feels air light when applied on lips. You can comfortably wear them from 9 to 5. The shades go on almost every skin tones. You can also use them on cheeks with a finger or stippling brush. Just lightly blends into skin while dabbing with a finger. When applied on lips it gives me smooth velvety finish and almost turns to soft matte lip color in few seconds. Its hydrating to some extent so its ok to not put any lip balms. They are very less transferrable and stays on for 7-8 hrs with slight touch ups. The formula is completely non drying. I first thought it would stay like a semi matte lipstick but it almost goes to powder matte without having to feel dry. Even on cheeks it gives a tinted soft color you just need one dot as Its strongly pigmented. It gives complete coverage on lips too. Doesn’t accentuate fine lines. It also doesn’t bleed or smudge. It doesn't have any shimmer. Has a very light fragrance like a some cupcakes. Blush too stays for 6-7 hrs which is just amazing.

Overall recommended. I totally didn't expected it to have such amazing formula and texture. They are quite thicker when compared to nyx soft matte lip creams. I feel so happy that lakme finally coming up with matte lip creams. In winter I don't prefer powder blushes rather I go for something which gives my cheeks a tint of rose pink color and this mousse are perfect for it.
