NEW Lakme 9 to5 Weightless Mousse Foundation Review

02:36:00

Hello angels,

2016 has already begun with Lakme launching their New foundation. This comes from 9 to 5 range its basically a weightless mousse foundation. I haven’t tried their previous 9 to5 range foundation but I do love lipsticks and nail paints from this range. And I was absolutely crazy for Lakme absolute mousse which was such a hit product by Lakme but because of limited shade range I couldn’t use for myself. I am glad Lakme came up with mousse foundation in 9 to 5 range.

It comes in a peach glossy box. This mousse foundation is packed in a peach color opaque slender tube. I liked tube packaging more than a jar so that its good according to hygiene point of view.

This foundation comes in 4 shades.

Rose Ivory

Rose Honey

Beige Vanilla

Beige Caramel

The lightest shade among it is Rose ivory which almost suits my complexion. Rose ivory is for fair skin tone having warm or cool undertones.

This foundation is absolutely amazing. The texture is almost similar to mousse. This foundation is extremely light almost feels like feather when blending in. It just blends effortlessly and makes your skin look smooth like velvet. It has light to medium coverage but almost helps in covering marks to some extent.

It doesn’t help in concealing any imperfections. It’s a foundation for everyday use where you don’t need much coverage. Its weight less so you don’t feel like you have applied anything on skin. If you have good skin with minor imperfection you can just use this. If your skin has lot of acne or marks try using with concelar because this won’t help your skin look flawless.

I would suggest using moisturiser except for your skin is oily. I felt this foundation just melts into skin. You can add layers of this foundation without feeling oily or cakey.

It’s a matte finish foundation but can be used by every skin type. It works great on combination skin too. This foundation stays for 5-6 hrs I could see it wearing off around my nose after few hrs. My T zone area was bit oily after few hrs of application. You can apply some loose powder if your skin tends to get oily. This is a everyday use foundation giving you a natural look without making you feel you have applied any makeup. Most of the time I feel lazy to apply foundation and for that reason I love such products which are easy to work with.

Overall product stands up to my expectations. I am happy with my rose ivory shade. Many of you may not find a perfect shade which is a bit of turn off for the product. I wish they good get some more shades because the foundation is amazing. I was not expecting full coverage for this foundation so I am pretty satisfied by the way it looked. The tube is slender so easy to carry while travelling. It didn’t cause me any break outs. Does not feel oily. This foundation has a fragrance which could be annoying for sensitive skin. I liked the smell it reminded me much of Lakme absolute mousse. It s a great product for your everyday use at such affordable price.

Product Features:
1. Extremely lightweight formula
2. Blends effortlessly onto skin to conceal imperfections
3. Matte finish that lasts through the day
4. Suitable for all skin types
5. Desired coverage for daily use

How to apply

Step 1: Apply Lakme 9to5 Weightless Foundation to clean, moisturised skin.
Step 2 :Just take a small amount of product with the index finger and start applying it to the skin with your fingertips. Usually, you can just apply the mousse in four places: the forehead, nose, chin and cheekbones.
Step 3: Blend into your skin starting from the centre of the skin outwards, taking care to cover your face including your neck.

TOO FACED LE PETIT TRESOR REVIEW SWATCHES

10:12:00

WELCOME 2016

Happy new year to everyone Hope you all had a great New Year. 2015 was a great year for me with many lessons learned. Thank you for all your love and support in 2015. As 2015 ends I wish you all have wonderful 2016 with lots of love, happiness and positivity. I have been sick since few days and this post was suppose to be there last week on my blog.. which got delayed.

Today I am going to Review about this limited edition gift set from Too Faced LE PETIT TRESOR. Le Petit Tresor has 3 full sized best selling LA CREME lipsticks at just 28$ with a value of 72$ and each lipstick individually cost you 22$. Isn't that amazing.

Le Petit Tresor comes in beautiful gift box having blue color embossed ribbon on it. When you open a box you see a cute eye catching pouch. Its glittery and blue in color. It also has a small Eiffel tower charm hanging on pouch zip. This glittery pouch looks so attractive. It’s a perfect gift for lipstick lovers. There are 3 la crème full size lipsticks wrapped in a pink tissue. How classy it feels to unwrap this lipsticks.

Let me be honest i was taken away by looking at its packaging it was like Wow. This lipsticks comes in matte gold tube which feels quite heavy when compared to other lipsticks. But this lipsticks look simple and classy to me. Totally loving the feel of it.

There are 3 shades Nude Beach, Taffy and Wham. Wham is new limited edition shade. So you wont find this shade when you purchasing individual. Taffy and Nude Beach are available individually.

L-R NUDE BEACH, TAFFY, WHAM

La crème lipsticks have super soft buttery texture to it. This formula is luxurious rich and creamy. I loved that they are super nourishing and moisturizing to lips. Decently pigmented may not give opacity to pigmented lips. Need to build the color for getting more coverage. Stays on well for 4 hrs doesn’t stain your lips. Doesn’t bleed or smudge. No lip balm required. They do accentuate fine lines and if you have dry lips you need to exfoliate before application of this lipstick.

They have creamy to satin finish except for wham this one gives you shiny glossy finish due to lots of glitter in it. They feel extremely light on lips without feeling sticky.

Nude beach- A perfect Nude Peach color you can carry this color throughout year for parties and as your day to go lipstick. It has good pigmentation. It has this sweet orange fragrance to it.

Taffy- Almost similar to nude beach but again this is sheer and has more of a coral to it. This would go more on fair and dark skin tones. It has got chocolaty orange smell to it.

Wham-I was pretty excited to try this shade. But didn’t turn out as expected. This is basically a sheer lipstick in berry shade having purple red chunks of sparkle. It has smooth finish on lips. No gritty feel to it. It gives shiny finish you can build the color to give more coverage. Its something you can wear for parties.

Overall I recommend it’s a adorable gift at such a great value. I loved the nude shades more as they are more usable. Wham was bit glittery I personally don’t apply glittery lipsticks. But its something different to try for festive. Nude beach and taffy almost look similar but still they are different shades and I love the combo of two nudes with one darker shade. You can even use this glittery pouch in you hand bag for keeping coins or little jewellery. It’s a perfect gift for lipstick junkie like me.

Price 29$ {value 72$}

Maybelline The Falsies Push Up Drama Mascara REVIEW

12:37:00

Hello angels,

Finally its here yes The Falsies Push Up Drama mascara is here so happy to talk about this lovely mascara from my favorite drugstore brand MAYBELLINE. The Falsies Push Up Drama Mascara is one of their latest launch in mascara range. I have heard mixed reviews about this mascara some liked it some didn't but I wanted to find out on my own whether this mascara is true to what it claims or not. So lets find out.

The packaging is so so attractive. On first look I thought its a double ended mascara because the tube is in two different colors its metallic hot pink at bottom with metallic red for the cover it also has black in between tube. The tube tapers at bottom which reminds me much of Benefit Roller Mascara.

This mascara is washable and is in blackest black shade.

I pretty felt in love with the packaging. I liked this red hot pink colors. The brush is straight its not curved like Benefit roller mascara. The bristles are placed in such a way as to help push lashes up and give a lift to it.

This mascara is basically to give you that push up effect. It also provides volume to the lashes. While applying there was no smudging on the eyelids. It didn't even smeared off. This mascara does not flake. I liked using it for my bottom lashes too but as the brush is straight it was bit difficult to apply on my inner lashes.

The formula is quite creamy and helps to holds my lashes in place for hrs.

If you have a close look this bristles are in cup shaped it scoops and lifts your individual lashes to give a false effect.

I always love using mascara whether I have eye makeup on or not. And I am very much obsessed with this formula its not dry nor wet just a perfect creamy which dries of quickly. It doesn’t clump my lashes. My lashes don’t feel so stiff or hard after application. I love using several coats of mascara to give maximum effect.

This definitely helps in pushing up lashes and give volume to some extent but doesn't help in lengthening your lashes.

I have not wiggled this brush because I didn’t wanted any clumpiness to my lashes. This brush holds the lashes from the to root to tip. This mascara is very different from the Roller mascara in many ways. Roller mascara helps in curling your lashes while the Maybelline doesn’t hook or curl your lashes it just gives you lifting effect with cup shaped bristles. Its a blackest black color which makes my lashes appear thick it definitely helps giving that dramatic falsies lash effect.
Overall I am impressed with Maybelline The Falsies Push Up Drama mascara its not one of the best mascara from Maybelline but they are quite affordable and gives you enough volume and drama to lashes. It doesn’t add much curl but but helps in pushing up your lashes. If you curl your lashes you will get results very similar to Benefit Roller lash mascara at much affordable price.

I would love to repurchase it again.

WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT

Attitude. Style. Drama. Lashes. You like to push it up. And now you can push the limits with the first ever cup-shaped bristles that lift your lashes to dramatic heights.
