Hi Everyone,

I am reviewing a eye liner pen which is newly launched by Maybelline colossal range.

Price : Rs. 425

Product Description :

Enjoy eye catching intensity and flawless precision with the Maybelline New York Colossal Liner.
Designed to end all your application woes, the Maybelline New York colossal liner features a 0.4mm flexi tip applicator that gives you perfect error free lines. Empowered with the ink pigment technology, this colossal eye liner impacts smudge proof, fade proof, intense color to your eyes. Its quick dry formula ensures a 12 hour staying power and quick application. Add this kajal to your vanity kit and enjoy stunningly beautiful eyes everyday.

MY TAKE ON THE PRODUCT :

Packaging : 

The eye liner comes in a very sleek black packaging with yellow accents. It resembles a marker pen. The cap clicks tightly. The flexi tip applicator is very thin with 0.4mm size.

Color : 

It is jet black with matte finish and the color pay off is really very good. In one swipe it delivers great pigmentation.
The flexi tip applicator is good to draw both thin and thick lines.

Staying Power : 

It stayed for 6 - 8 hours on my eyelids. The formula is not waterproof and it starts running down the eyes if water is splashed.

THE GOOD : 

1. Travel-friendly packaging.
2. Felt tip for precised application.
3. Easily available.
4. Jet black.
5. Pigmentation.
6. Doesn't irritate eyes.
7. Staying power.

THE BAD :

1. Not Waterproof.
2. Smudges easily if eyes are rubbed.

Price : Rs. 750 for 1.6 g

WHAT LAKME says :

Sultry, somber or sassy. Women love drama! Unleash your drama quotient with Lakme Drama Stylist crayon.

How to apply?

Step 1 : Choose your eye shadow crayon shade from the 8 super long wearing shades.

Step 2 : Apply the shadow directly with the pencil tip onto the eyelids.

Step 3 : Smudge the color quickly on the eyelids as it is a quick dry formula.

MY TAKE ON THE PRODUCT 

PACKAGING : As the name says, it is a eye shadow that comes in a chubby crayon type pencil, which can be applied directly on the eye lids.

All the pencils are black and have a transparent lid. The bottom part of the pencil is in the same color as the actual shade of the eye shadow.

TEXTURE : Smooth and soft. It glides on easily and can be blended easily with fingers or brush before it sets.

PIGMENTATION : Excellent color pay off, single swipe is enough to get the true color.

STAYING POWER : Sets quickly into a smudge-proof finish. Stays on eyelids for 7-8 hours without fading or creasing.

THE GOOD :

• Super long wearing.
• Extremely soft.
• Waterproof.
• Intense color pay off.
• Crease proof.
• Remarkably gliding.

THE BAD : 

• Priced high for a drug store brand.
• Needs sharpening - Product wastage.

Will I Repurchase?

Not this color, but I will try out some other shade because I like the staying power and formulation.

Lakme Absolute Face Stylist Compact - Review

Hi Girls,

Today I am reviewing the Lakme Absolute Face Stylist compact in the shade : 05 - Beige Honey.

Price : Rs. 1000 for 11 g.

Shelf Life : 3 Years.

MY TAKE ON THE PRODUCT : 

PACKAGING : The compact powder comes in a black circular pan and contains a mirror on the underside. It also contains a slim puff applicator.

The packaging is slimmer and much more compact.

TEXTURE : The pressed powder is soft, silky and finely milled. The powder blends easily onto the skin and takes away the shine.

Its on the sheerer side, and can be used as a setting powder. 

It doesn't look cakey when applied over foundation.

It gives light to medium coverage on itself, and does control oil.

01 - Ivory Fair
02 - Rose Fair
03 - Golden Medium
04 - Golden Light
05 - Beige Honey
06 - Almond Honey

THE GOOD : 

1. Sleek packaging.
2. Soft texture.
3. Blends like a dream.
4. Sets foundation/concealer well.
5. Doesn't give cakey look.
6. Takes away extra shine.
7. Staying power of 5 -6 hours.

THE BAD : 

1. Priced high.
