Chambor Moisture Plus Lipstick in Coral Plus Review and Swatches!!

I am a hopelessly romantic person. Even little gestures make me go mushy.

And a lip color that has the perfect mixture of coral and pink whipped together is sure to make me go weak in the knees ;)

So when I came across the shade in Flirtatious Pink Take me as I am lipcolor from Colorbar, I was ready to splurge till Deepika asked me to check the Chambor counter. Armed with the wrist swatch of FP, I marched down and found the same shade in Moisture Plus range :D 200 bucks saved phew!!'




This is my first Chambor makeup product not considering the makeup remover I received as a part of some bag once:O Never got around to buying stuff from their counter. Coming to the packaging, it has a navy blue body with silver band around the opening. Previously these used to have a full silver body. Sturdy and travel friendly packaging but very mediocre to look at.




The color as mentioned is a soft coral pink that luks fresh.





The texture is soft. Glides buttery smooth and has good pigmentation. Pigmented lips can be covered with 2/3 swipes. Does not look cakey when built up.


Provides a creamy finish and glossy sheen on application. The sheen vanishes after 20-30 mins and the color lasts for 2-3 hours without food. For this price, the lipstick should last longer.




Is transferable but any lipstick should be left alone at least for the initial 30 mins or so to set. Becomes less prone to transfer that way :)

The one daunting thing about this lipstick is the smell.It has a weird smell that lasts for 10 mins at least and I really do not appreciate it.





It has a white moisture core at the center that lends a softness to the lipstick. 

Price : Rs. 695/-

Overall, a pretty fresh take on the coral pink lipsticks. I would use it more often had it not been the fragrance.

Loved this color ? Or is it Nay ? 

Till Next Post ;)

Lipstick Love : Maybelline Lip Polish in Glam 9 Review and Swatches!!

I have become more of a clothes (and shoes) convert these days. So the little makeup I purchase, I make sure are the ones I would use during the week.

Maybelline Lip Polishes. I could safely call them one of the best products by the brand. Priced : 499 Rs.



The tube is ultra cute with the inside looking like an inverted lipstick tube but is actually a gloss. As mentioned in the Glam 6 review, lip polishes are a cross between gloss and lipstick. 

The shade Glam 9 is a bubblegum pink. Confession time. I hate Boomer bubblegums. The smell gives me headache :O But the shade is pretty. A little cool toned bubblegum pink with slight silver shimmers that will look great on fair/medium skin but may wash out dusky skin.



The petal applicator is really soft but the application goes streaky. Really uneven. So I apply a little on my lips and smoothen it out with fingers for even finish.

It feels very comfortable and moisturizing on the lips. Lip balm is not a definite need with this. Soft and cushiony lips :)




Gets easily transferred. 

The glossiness stays for 30 mins or so. The color vanishes after 2 hours without eating/drinking. But with food, it will disappear immediately.





Overall, I love the lip polish for its texture, wearable color and moisturizing feel.

Thumbs up from my side :)

Dolman Sleeves with Jabong.com

Are you fascinated with bats ? No ? Neither Am I ;) But there is something about Dolman Sleeves.Well if this is the first time you hear the term. Dolman Sleeves are Bat like sleeves. Loose at the sleeves and fitting (cinched) at the waist. I find the style really cool. So when I was given a voucher by Jabong.com to review the site, you know what I got ;)



I remember Jabong being one of the few websites that sold Clothes online initially.

The site features an extensive collection of clothes for every eclectic taste :) and Not to leave out the Ubiquitous sales available. Nothing spared to make you a Shopaholic :D

The navigation is a breeze. You can search for what you want based on colors/styles too.

The site also features latest trends and Get the look sections. I like that the Jabong team takes efforts to come out with Look of the day and other hot trends.

They even have the "Juice Magazine" which is a great read :)

Coming back to my order. I ordered the Dolman Sleeves top on March 3rd and received it on March 8th. I got message on Friday mentioning that my order has been dispatched and I will receive it by March 11th. I found it annoyingly late but it was a nice surprise when I received it 3 days earlier :) 
The delivery time is good.One can track the status of the delivery in the View Order tab.

The top was delivered in perfect condition and the material is really soft. 

Jabong.com provides specifications for every item like material, wash, size that is really helpful while picking stuff online.

I find the service really good. Jabong.com is definitely on top of my list for Online Shopping.

So some snaps of my dolman sleeves top in Size S. I love the cross cut in the middle <3







I am lusting over a Indian fusion print combination of a blue top and orange cotton skirt at Reliance Trends. Need to pick it up soon ;) 


What are you lusting after in terms of clothes this season ?
