Lakme Enrich Satin Lipstick in the shade P168 : Review & Swatch

hey beauties...
How are you all doing ??? A very HAPPY NEW YEAR to you all my lovelies !!!
2015 have been a crazy year for me. Last few months were full of travel and personal commitments. If you follow me in Instagram (arpita_blog), you must be knowing I was in India for the last 3months.While in India, I shopped a lot from Lakme, Makeup Revolution and many more. This post is about a brand which is probably the first brand I used years ago....
Its the LAKME ENRICH SATIN LIPSTICK in SHADE P168

PACKAGING, AVAILABILITY and PRICE

• This comes in a sleek transparent packaging which is kind of pretty and classy unlike the earlier bulky burgundy packaging.
• The Lakme Enrich Satin range of lipsticks retails for Rs 260
• You can buy it from all Lakme counters or from Jabong or Nykaa

SWATCH

The Lakme Enrich Satin Lipstick in P168 is gorgeous Purple shade with Pink undertones. Its the kind of shade that instantly brighten up your face and suits almost all skin tones.

MY VERDICT

• Firstly lets all of us THANK Lakme for changing the packaging. Totally loving the sleek sturdy packaging and the click on lid which makes the lipstick safe to travel with.
• The texture is very smooth,creamy and the lipstick glides on easily on lips
• Has a stay on power of 3-4hours, which is not that bad. After 4hours it leaves a stain though not that strongly pigmented.
• Shade does not bleed.
• Love the finish as it doesn't settle on the fine lines on my lips.
• Well Pigmented.
• Affordable
• Easily available in India

I am quite impress with this range of lipsticks and looking forward to try some more shades as I am a sucker for lipsticks.

Do comment bellow and suggest me your fav shade from this range.
Thats all from me guys. Stay tuned for some more exciting posts. P.S. Feb is going to bring my lovely readers a very exciting post....So stay connected...
See you soon...Love love all your way !!!

Maybelline Baby Lips Candy Wow Lipbalm in Raspberry Review

Hey beauties…How are you all doing ?? I have been gone for ever. And finally back with a new post about a new winter release.

Winters are quite harsh here in India. Though I have a combination to oily facial skin, my body and lips tends to be super dry in winters. For a lipstick addict like me, chapped lips are a big NO NO. And so lipbalms are my bffs….

Maybelline has this awesome and most popular range of lipbalms called BABY LIPS. I am sure we all know about it and love it to eternity. Recently Maybelline has launched an extension, well a pretty wow extension, to their usual baby lips range called BABY LIPS CANDY WOW !!!

PACKAGING AND PRICE

·         This wow product comes in a crayon pen/ chubby stick form.

·         It has a rotating end which brings the product out.

·         I just love how bright and funky the packaging is.

·         This retails for Rs 275.

SHADE

The Baby lips Candy wow lip balms comes in 5wow shades. Raspberry, Mixed Berry, Orange, Cherry and Peach. I have it in the shade RASPBERRY. It’s a beautiful berry shade. A perfect everyday shade which is nonsticky and super moisturising.

MY VERDICT

·         Convenient Crayon style packaging with funky outer cover.

·         Decent colour pay off.

·         Stays on for good 5 to 6hours.

·         Very moisturising and hydrating for chapped lips.

·         Smooth application.

·         Non sticky.

·         Gives a shinny satin finish.

·         No taste but sheer smell of candy.

·         Pretty good pigmentation. So can be wore on its own or below any lip product.

I just love the MAYBELLINE BABY LIPS CANDY WOW lip balm and looking forward to get more shades. I recommend this to everyone who is struggling with dry lips and anyone who loves moisturising lips with some colour.

Do comment bellow and let me know you favourite shade from this range.

I will see you guys soon with a new exciting review post. Till then enjoy your candylicious lips with Maybelline Baby lips Candy wow lip balms….
