L’OREAL ROUGE MATTE MAGIQUE LIPSTICK REVIEW SWATCHES

01:34:00

Hello rosebuds,

If you are thinking that why am I so obsessed with lipsticks then probably the answer is why these companies keep on bringing such amazing new range of lipsticks. Today I will be reviewing recently launched LOREAL PARIS COLOR RICHE ROUGE MATTE MAGIQUE which are complete range of intense matte lipsticks. They come in beautiful metallic hot pink and black tube. I really loved this chic pink and black version of packaging which opens and shuts with a click. They have launched 12 shades and I have 4 among them. MONT BLANC, PEACH PERFECT, SCARLET DEJAVU & VIN EXQUOIS

So this range has PLUMS, BROWNS, NUDES and REDS. I have tried to picked up one from each category.

ROUGE MAGIQUE claims ONE SWIPE INTENSE MATTE color. Its true this lipsticks are intense but you need 2 swipes to give a complete coverage. And for deeper shades I usually like blotting them after 2 applications before going on for 3^rd this way it gives me deep color.

Now talking about the formula they go matte but not complete matte like liquid lipsticks. They are non drying and doesn’t feel heavy on lips. The formula textures is soft, smooth and creamy which glides effortlessly without having to drag or pull. Inspite of being matte it doesn't make my lips feel like dry and parched. They do have some moisturizing properties which makes it easy to apply. Also on initial application it gives a semi matte effect. The formula doesn’t settle into fine lines except for chapped lips.

These are not transfer proof. So you going to see them on your glass, coffee mugs etc. You definitely need touch ups as it fades away from center of your lips. Darker shades do leave a stain. I wont say they are long lasting but it does stay pretty well for 4 hrs. Even after meals you going to find pink stained lips. So this lip color doesn’t wash out completely. It doesn’t contain any fragrance also I would suggest to use a lip pencils for deep and bold shades to give proper defined lips also you can use a lip brush.

Overall Recommended If you love dark, bold shades of lipsticks you definitely need to try them as they are intensely pigmented. You can make a bold statement with these lipsticks at romantic date, work or parties. Also they are not so matte it has moisturizing formula which can keep your lips hydrated. My personal favorite shade has to be in red SCARLET DEJAVU. I also like VIN EXQUOIS but I wish it had more even coverage like scarlet dejavu. These lipsticks are reasonably priced. I think they are the most affordable range of lipsticks in LOREAL.

Well I got them while I was travelling in middle east. They were available at Stores like centerpoint. Previously I have used lipsticks from this brand and they were really good. This time I got 3 lipsticks of similar shades but they are totally different on application. The first shade is Cinnamon from the VELVET TOUCH MATTE lipstick range. Second shade NOUGAT FUDGE from LIQUID MATTE COLLECTION and lastly 003 HOT KISS from KISS ME MATTE lipstick range. I am totally obsessed with this kind of shades its a ongoing trend especially if you travel to middle east you going to love picking up such warm rosey brown shades.

NOUGAT FUDGE

Liquid matte lipsticks have a perfect matte finish they are not so drying like some of the other powder matte lipsticks. Also they don’t crack or settle into fine lines of lips.The formula is smooth and creamy on application. It takes few sec to set them into matte finish. They are Smudge proof and transfer proof lipsticks. On initial application you may feel the formula little sticky which goes away once it sets into matte. The formula is very comfortable on lips and feels extremely light. These liquid matte contains dandelion which not only moisturizes but also increases the microcirculation of lips which can also give a increase volume to your lips. The leaves of dandelion contains vitamin A , C &D Its also contains some soothing properties. When applied on lips it does give me a fuller look and doesn’t accentuate fine lines. It doesn’t have any fragrance. They are suitable for VEGANS. The staying power of this lipstick is 7-8 hrs. It fades away leaving behind a stain. They are so easy to remove with the help of waterproof makeup remover.

Nougat fudge is beautiful shade for everyday wear. It’s a warm dusty pink having peachy tones. Overall recommended.

VELVET TOUCH MATTE LIPSTICK CINNAMON

Coming to VELVET TOUCH MATTE LIPSTICK in Cinnamon shade. It’s a perfect cinnamon brown shade suitable for various skin tones. The formula is soft creamy matte which gives a velvety matte finish. They are non drying and doesn’t accentuate fine lines. It has a choclatey fragrance which disappears on application. They are highly pigmented and just need 1-2 swipes to give a complete opaque application. The formula is buildable but it does cling on to dry areas of lips. Also they are quite comfortable when applied for long hrs. The texture is smooth and gives even and effortless application. The formula stays for 4-5 hrs leaving behind stain. You may need touch ups as the formula does transfer. No feathering or bleeding of lipstick.
Overall liked if you want a everyday matte lipstick with comfortable wear. You can pick these.

NEW MAYBELLINE FASHION BROW POMADE CRAYON & CREAM PENCIL REVIEW

14:55:00

Hello angels,

Today I have something really exciting for all of you. YES it’s all about BROWS from the only drugstore brand MAYBELLINE. It kind of feels like my wish has been granted because as you all know that eyebrow products are something I cant live without I mean you don’t give me lip balm, lipsticks, concealers..etc I can manage seriously but brows are like so important to me. I am not so lucky enough to have dark brows and so I am always on hunt for new brow products. Benefit is one of my favorite when it comes to brows. But as you know nothing can beat a good drugstore product. So here comes MAYBELLINE FASHION BROW POMADE AND CREAM PENCIL. I am going to talk about both of the products as its new in the market and I just got them yesterday.

Lets begin with the FASHION BROW POMADE it comes in two shades softer brown and deep brown. I picked up deep brown as I like my brows little darker. So this comes in a chubby stick with twist tube you don’t have to sharpen them. NO MESS. They are so reasonably priced 450/-INR. This pomade is more like a combination of brow wax and pigments. Its smooth and creamy in texture giving effortless application. This brow pomade holds my eyebrow hair in place. It gives a perfect pigment to my brows and you can build the product for more darker brows. They are not so heavily pigmented where you feel your eyebrows can look artificial. It also gives very natural fuller looking brows. This product is waterproof & I like my brow products to be waterproof. Inspite of waxy content it doesn’t make my hair look stiff. The color stays on well for 7-8 hrs.

Overall recommended to every girl who has a lighter/sparse brows this is really amazing. It will help you give a better defined brows. Its very easy to apply and available at affordable price. It doesn’t look messy instead it gives sculpted brows.

RATING A

Let me now talk about FASHION BROW IN CREAM PENCIL. It has two shades GRAY and BROWN. I choose brown shade. Its not like a highly pigmented pencil but it’s a waterproof formula and stays really well. Also I liked the formula as its less pigmented I can build the product and it gives me very natural looking brows. It doesn’t feel like I have used a brow pencil. The shade perfectly suits my brows and I am really happy using this. Generally I prefer using brow pomade or powder but this pencil really works for my everyday use even when I am in hurry. I just apply light strokes in the direction of my hair which gives very fine and well defined brows. The formula feels hard when swatched on hand but when I applied on brows it was creamy soft and easy to apply formula.
Overall liked it its not so long lasting as the pomade if you are use to eyebrow pencils this are really fine and give a natural better looking eyebrows.
