Colorbar Cosmetics - Kiss Proof Lip Stain - Shade Mauve Dusk





My Instagram Pic

Reviewing on a lip shade, no I think it is, liquid lipstick, oh oh! wait its a lip cream, uh! oh! error again... its a Lip Stain, huh! These names get me so confused... ha ha! 

Well it only means its better in its claim on lying there on your lips when you have smacked that burger or sipped on coffee or you did just about anything that involves lips! ;)

Everyone loves a good matte lipstick and if its in a liquid formula which is not only creamy and moisturizing but does not compromise on the color payoff, it is a product to grab!!! There are 8 shades in this range which include darker shades of red and pink.

I have the shade Mauve Dusk and the product retails for Rs. 900/- for 6.5ml. I got this shade a couple of months ago and I am completely in awe of it, whenever I am not sure of the product or formula, I experiment with a shade in the safest color, which in my case is "Mauve" - so now to the product:

Shade:
- Pinky-mauve color

Formula
-Creamy during application and velvety once applied - which appears matte but feels like velvet on your lips.

Packaging
- Attractive packaging and the doe-foot applicator is designed accurately for the product.

Price
-Some beauties might find the formula a tad-bit drying and paying Rs.900/- for a product which one wont enjoy might seem pricey.

Pros:

-Beautiful packaging and perfect applicator for even application of the product.
-Excellent formula - creamy on application and velvety feel, once it dries.
-Super long lasting - stays on for good 5-6 hours the way it was applied, if you do not eat  or drink - but leaves a good stain even if you eat or drink something.
-You do not need a lot of product - so worth the price! 
-Perfect party/formal time shades in this collection

Cons

-Pricey
-Some may find the formula drying.
-Requires a min or two to completely dry off and give that velvety texture.

My take on the product:

Oh! I completely love it, the formula, the packaging, the color. It is definitely one lipstick I have gone for repeatedly in the past few weeks. It is a perfect party/occasion wear lip shade but you can pull it off for a casual look with minimum eye makeup.


                                                                    
                                                          Overall a YAY!

Bioderma Node DS+ Shampooing Review

Bioderma! A brand every skin/hair care fancying woman greedily hoards. Well in my case I needed to pick this "heaven sent" product to heed to my never-ending, every stalking dandruff problem. I have been facing persistent dandruff right since I was a kid, but with time and changing products the flaky snow on my head just got worse. I had been using The Body Shop - Ginger Anti Dandruff shampoo, as mentioned in my earlier post here , I never swore by it that it did any good or bad to my dandruff situation, but I still continue using it every once a while and avoid using it on my scalp off-late. I was recommended this shampoo by my dermatologist as  I recently had some problem with an allergy on my lip (about that I will cover in another post - coming soon!) which was triggered by dandruff *sighs*. Ok back to Bioderma Node DS+ shampoo Claims of this product: - Reduces rapid increase of Malassezia yeast which triggers dandruff - Prevents recurrence of da

VLCC Pista Massage Cream Review

For good number of years, I have been using the facial kits by VLCC, it is a good last minute self-facial treat and does the job of putting up a sublime glow to your face without spending an hour or two at the salon. I thought to give this product   a try , as I was looking for a massage cream, which I can include in my weekend pamper sessions. I did not want a high-end brand or an expensive product because sometimes I just like a simple scrub, face wash, face pack combination of pamper sesh' for my face and thats it! About the packaging and price It is a 50g massage cream which retails for Rs. 260/-. It is not a new product by VLCC and has been in the market for a while. It comes in a plastic jar and is well sealed. In terms of packaging it is nothing fancy and it has a plastic covering with all the details of the ingredients, price, expiry date and method of usage.  About the product and usage The cream is green in color and has a slightly off

A Marks & Spencer Beauty: Mini Perfume Haul

I am all into miniatures these days and when I saw these beauties, I had to dig in. I have never been a perfume purchase person, as mostly they were gifted to me. I love a real good mist and was quite committed to Bath & Body Works and The Body Shop ones for a long time now so I decided lets switch that up and that is when I found these lil' devils and whats better than carrying these dinky yet amazing perfumes around for a spritz! There was an ample collection in all different sizes and notes, I am sure there is something for everyone. I was looking for an everyday type of a scent, so I picked up a day scent, an evening scent and a floral scent.  Since they are so dinky and sturdy you can easily carry them in your smallest purses throughout the day. 1)  Marks & Spencer Beauty:  Lavender Eau De Toilette - This scent is from their floral collection, I never owned an ONLY lavender scent before, I sniffed it I loved it, it is a typical lavender subtle scent, yet it makes
