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!

M.A.C Lipstick Review - M.A.C Matte Lipstick - Shade Diva

My M.A.C Lipstick in Diva When it comes to M.A.C lipsticks I can go on and on, a true lipstick lover will know that M.A.C lipstick is the queen of lipsticks because of its wide range of formulas and shades. Whenever I buy an high-end lipstick, for me the shade matters the most, I do not like buying bold shade for fear I won't use it much and it won't justify the price. I wanted a red tone matte lipstick from M.A.C but at the same time I did not want a bold red or orange red tone lipstick as it would not flatter my skin tone. I almost left the counter thinking red is out of question, matte red is totally out of question and then I happen to swatch M.A.C Diva - I always looked at M.A.C Diva as more of an autumn-wintery shade and that it would look more festive and wine shadey kinda color. My First Impression: My mind: "Oh my my, it can be red, ok get your view right - its more blue-based red on you, not redddd...marooooon, maroon is a nice shade!"  My...

Lotus Professional Phyto-Rx Whitening & Brightening Serum Review

I have always liked a good Lotus product every now and then. Sometime during the start of winters I decided to include serums in my skincare routine, now a dry skin baby like me needs to think a couple of times before adding something new to my skincare routine so as to not further dry my skin and that too in winters. I started using the  Lotus Professional Phyto-Rx Whitening & Brightening Serum from December last year and I was using it on alternate days and night, as I do not believe using something new regularly just to see how my skin is reacting in the first few days. I picked this product from the Nykaa winter sale and managed to get a good discount as well. The MRP is INR 545 for 30ml and usually you do end up getting discount of 20-25% on Nykaa. Though, it is not a super pricey product, discounts always help while purchasing a "never tried before" product. I was waiting to use it for a month or so, before I could share my two cents on it. Now abou...

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 slightl...
