3 years of no show and here I am with a post for the office/college goers :) <br />
<br />
So I have been loving subtle brown smokey eyes and neutral lipsticks these days and have rounded up few favourites of mine that are always in my lipstick rotation. I will be doing individual reviews of these soon.<br />

The list has 14 shades *just realized that is a lot* that will cater to a variety of skin tones. These lipsticks are NOT nude - pastel shades as I have not yet grasped the need for pastel nudes. The ones listed down add colour to the face subtly and compliment different eye looks.<br />

<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><strong>Mac Spice</strong> : I have been leaning towards peachy browns for few months now as they compliment my warm yellow skin. Mac Spice is a <strong>warm peachy brown</strong> shade that does not wash me out and is the right amount of neutral for yellow skin. Does not dry out my lips and settles into a flat matte finish. Will suit fair to dusky skin. Price : Rs.1450/-</li>
<li><strong>Maybelline Touch of Spice</strong> : It is much sought after and is often out of stock along with toasted brown *which I have been chasing around with no luck*. The shade is a <strong>pinkish brown with slight cool undertones</strong>. This will suit fair to medium skin and has a tendency to wash out dusky skin. Price : Rs.499/-</li>
<li><strong>L'Oreal Nude Allude</strong> : This pro matte gloss was recommended to me by Deepika of Divassence. Such a beautiful <strong>muted reddish brown</strong> shade with hints of peach in it. It is muted enough for everyday wear yet brings life to the face. Cannot recommend it enough. It sets to a velvet matte finish and will suit all skin colors *promise*. Price : Rs. 799/- </li>
<li><strong>Mac Retro</strong> : This lipstick has not received its dues unlike the over hyped ones *Cosmo/Mehr*. If you have warm yellow tones to your skin, you must give retro a try. It is a deep shade with <strong>pink, brown and red mix</strong>. Price : Rs.1450/-</li>
<li><strong>Mac Brick - O - La</strong> : Brick - o - La and Retro are sisters. They don't look the same but are related. Brick - o -la is a touch lighter than Retro and has less brown in it. Price : Rs.1450/-</li>
<li><strong>Nykaa Naughty Nude</strong> : Naughty Nude is a <strong>peachy brown</strong> shade. It sets to a semi matte finish and will suit fair to dusky skin. Not sure how it will show up on dark skin. Price : Rs. 399/-</li>
<li><strong>Colorbar Café latte :</strong> Café Latte - you would expect it be a full blown brown shade. But it is not. It is similar to nykaa's naughty nude lipstick but has more pink in it and has a creamy glossy finish which I love. Price : Rs.499/-</li>
<li><strong>Lakme Rosy Sunday :</strong> This one was a surprise. I am not into Lakme lipsticks. Got this when I was having mood swings. However, it is one of those lipsticks that is just right to brighten Monday mornings. A combination of <strong>peach and pink</strong> that will look good across skin shades. Does into dry put my lips with its matte finish.</li>
<li><strong>Sugar Better Call Salmon :</strong> Better Call Salmon is a <strong>pale pink - peach</strong> shade that is strictly for fair skin. It tends to wash me out on bad skin days. I would recommend wearing it over a darker lip pencil.</li>
<li><strong>Sugar Breaking Bare :</strong> Breaking Bare is nowhere near bare on my lips. It is a <strong>muted berry-pink</strong> shade that is definitely *there*. Like the matte finish of the pout time vivid lipsticks as they do not dry out the lips. </li>
<li><strong>Chambor Tender Coral :</strong> This lipstick is from the Orosa range that is known for its creamy finish. Colour wise it is a <strong>brown based coral</strong> which will suit fair- medium warm skin. Price : Rs. 995/-</li>
<li><strong>Mac Soar :</strong> Another huge favourite of mine. Soar is the perfect <strong>everyday pink</strong> for fair to dusky skin. People who hate how cosmo/mehr looks on them please take note. Price : Rs. 1450/-</li>
<li><strong>Chambor 402 :</strong> Tbh, not a fan of liquid lipsticks as they make my lips look like prunes. Chambor 402 too has the notorious tendency to dry out my lips. However, the shade is a pretty <strong>mauvy pink</strong> that works great for office. Price : Rs. 845/-</li>
<li><strong>Mac See Sheer :</strong> I already have a dedicated review on this pretty <strong>peach shade</strong> that has a lustre finish. Perfect peach shade for the summers. Price : Rs.1450/-</li>
</ul>
<br />
Hope you find the post useful. Let me know which ones do you own and which ones are your favourites!!<br />

<i>It is summer when you sweat incessantly at 6 AM. And the dreadful summers are back in Chennai. Summer in Chennai is not a cause for celebration I guarantee you. But the least one can do is smother the lips in bright orange colors ;) </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Personally I am a fan of creamy glossy lipsticks. Then there are days when even the creamy lover in me longs for the bleed proof matte lipsticks. If you are in the lookout for a matte lipstick in orange at a budget friendly price, you have landed at the right page.</i><br />

<i><br />The Maybelline MAT 4 lipstick is a warm orange shade with red undertones that makes it look amazing on warm skin tones.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Though it is a matte lipstick, the application goes smooth and even. No patchiness.</i><br />

<br />
<i>The pigmentation is damn good. I need only a single swipe to cover my lips. But if your lips are very pigmented, you can run over once more for an even color deposit. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Since it is matte, I would urge you to apply a lip balm 10 mins before and wipe it off prior to application.</i><br />

<i>It settles to a matte finish within seconds of application and stays put for a solid 3 hours. On eating food, it fades out from the center of lips. So touch up is needed after food.</i><br />

<i>It turns to a hot pink shade on my lips after sometime but all oranges turn hot pink on me :( </i><br />

<i>So here I am with more than adequate experience with the newly launched Maybelline colossal eyeliner. And I must say I am hooked all the way.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>It used to be just my kajal and mascara till 2 months back. Eyeliner was reserved for days I felt awesome. Then I got the Hypersharp liner which I will review shortly. But suffice to say this colossal liner from the same brand has made me wear eyeliner everyday since the day I got it. </i><br />

<br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Time for the formal review tadaaa.</i><br />
<br />
<i>Price : Rs. 450/- </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>The eyeliner comes in the form of a pen with a sketchy (?) tip. The felt tip makes application really a breeze. One can make the liner thin/thick easily. The tip is not as fine as that of hypersharp but if you are someone who finds it hard to make thick/medium sized lines with the hypersharp, you would love this one.</i><br />

<i><br /></i>
<i>Staying power is 7-8 hours after which it starts fading but does not disappear completely :) I do not have oily lids so you might want to take that into consideration.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Overall I am impressed with this liner. So if you are someone who is not adept at doing the liner with liquid liners, give this a shot. I bet you would go gaga over this one ;) </i><br />
<br />
<i><b>Lakme Absolute Kohl on the upper and lower waterlines, Maybelline Colossal eyeliner on the upper lashline and L'oreal Million Volume lashes mascara on the lashes work together great to make your peepers look "ah well beautiful" :)</b></i><br />

<i>I am a hopelessly romantic person. Even little gestures make me go mushy.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>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 ;)</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>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!!'</i><br />

<i>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.</i><br />

<i>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.</i><br />
<i></i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>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.</i><br />

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

<br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>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. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>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.</i><br />

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

<i>I remember Jabong being one of the few websites that sold Clothes online initially.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>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 </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>The navigation is a breeze. You can search for what you want based on colors/styles too.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>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.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>They even have the "Juice Magazine" which is a great read :)</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>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 :) </i><br />
<i>The delivery time is good.One can track the status of the delivery in the View Order tab.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>The top was delivered in perfect condition and the material is really soft. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Jabong.com provides specifications for every item like material, wash, size that is really helpful while picking stuff online.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>I find the service really good. <a href="http://jabong.com/" target="_blank">Jabong.com</a> is definitely on top of my list for <a href="http://jabong.com/" target="_blank">Online Shopping</a>.</i><br />

<i>MAC describes it as a soft reddish coral. I dont find anything remotely coral in the shade. In the hand swatches, it looks a soft reddish berry with bits of brown thrown in. But on me, it pulls a soft berry pink. Not a trace of red :( Not saying I am unhappy. The berry pink looks polished but I would have liked a hint of red.

<i>It is of Glaze finish but devoid of shimmers. Has a sheer glossy finish that can be built up to medium coverage. </i><br />

<i>Application is easy and even. The lipstick feels comfortable but cannot be tagged as hydrating. Nice part is I can use this without a lip balm even in the winters. </i><br />

<i>Staying power is approximately 2 hours without eating and drinking with 2 swipes. I cannot go beyond 2 hours without feeding my ever hungry stomach ;)</i><br />

<br />
<br />
<b>Dreaming Dahlia</b> : I and See Sheer. We <strike>were</strike> are in love. But then I got a crush albeit celebrity one on dreaming dahlia. Celebrity crush as this was the last piece in the MAC store and it belonged to Deepika (The queen of Jhumkas). DD looks shamelessly bold in the tube but transforms to a sheer glossy reddish orange sheen on the lips. It helps that it is of lustre finish. If u hadn't guessed it already, yea I flicked it from her :D Thank u Deeps <3<br />

<br />
Time for the basics.<br />
<br />
<b>Garnier BB Cream</b> : I go through tubes of this amazing product. It seems to blur the imperfections. Must have totally.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Kryolan Dermacolor Camouflage Cream</b> : Own this in 2 shades courtesy my persistent dark circles. I pulled an all nighter and wore this in the morning. Nada dark circles. Will review them soon.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
<b>Lakme Absolute Kohl</b> : Should repurchase this ASAP. Now once u know how smooth a Ferrari is u wouldn't go back to maruti 800 would u. It is the same with this kajal. Intensely black, smooth, waterproof, smudge proof (mostly) and lasts long.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
<b>L'oreal Volume Million Lashes Mascara</b> : I was gaga over the Lakme Eyeconic mascara till I got this. Worth the moolah as I love the formula and the fanned out effect it gives.<br />
<br />
<b>MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in Medium </b>(?) : Not sure about the shade I own. A much loved product to set my concealer(s).<br />
<br />
Seems like a lot of stuff but takes 10-15 minutes max to do my face.<br />
<br />
I also keep the <b>L'oreal Color Le Riche gloss in Violet Attitude</b> handy. Really Moisturizing and smells just amazing :)<br />
<br />
Till the Next Post<br />
Ciao!! <br />

<i>The shade Bronze Orange is a peachy orange that will beautifully set off the warmth of Indian skin. It has a creamy finish and no shimmers. The name is misleading. </i><br />

<i><br /></i>
<i>As mentioned, the lipstick is very creamy and feels like butter on application. Does not enhance fine lines and makes lips look plump and luscious :) But since it is creamy, U need to keep it in the fridge to avoid melting mishaps.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>I read in some blogs that the lipsticks tended to attract fungus but I own Coral Pink and Buff from the range and did not face such issues.</i><br />

<i>I love wearing browns. Brown on the eyes and orange on the lips works so well on my warm yellow skin. Does not matter that the orange starts looking like hot pink on my lips within few minutes of application.Weird? Exactly. I should get one of those brown rainbow eyeshadow refill from Inglot. I already own few brown eye liners. But few does not cut it u know ;) So I had to get the Lakme eyeconic color kajal in Brown.</i><br />

<i><br /></i>
<i>The Eyeconic kajal in Brown comes in the same packaging as that of the normal Lakme Eyeconic kajal. Same black/blue packaging but instead of Lakme written in the bottom, we have the color written. Brown in this case. Practical packaging and travel friendly. Nothing fancy.</i><br />

<br />

<i>L'oreal kajal magigue is a plastic twist up-down pencil. It has a black body with a pink rim at the middle. For reasons unknown I find the packaging a lil tacky. Comes with the price tag of Rs.245/-.</i><br />

<i>The shade is black (wat else?) but not jet black. The pigmentation is okayish types and needs to be built up. After several swipes I do get the intensity I want but I seriously wish L'oreal concentrated more on the pigmentation front. And thank god for the color is pure black and not greyish black like Lakme.</i><br />

<br />
<i>The kajal is definitely waterproof and smudgeproof. It takes a few seconds to set after which it hardly smudges even after washing my face. I can remove it only with oil.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i><b>VERDICT :</b></i><br />
<br />
<i>If u do not prefer harsh black lines on ur eyes or mind spending a few extra seconds to build up ur kajal intensity then this is a good choice for the price range. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Would give it 3.5 out of 5.(-1 for the pigmentation and -.5 for the packaging)</i><br />

<i>I love strawberries in all forms but Ice cream. If I have ice cream which is rare, it would Chocolate with Choco syrup and Choco chip sprinkles ;)</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>So when Revlon launched the Colorburst lip glosses, the Strawberry shade walked into my wishlist. And since I was mostly broke I totally forgot about this shade. Recently when I was in H & G and checking for the availability of Mirrored mauve shade from Maybelline for the hundredth time, I swatched this and fell in love :) </i><br />

<i><br /></i>
<i>The Revlon Colorburst lip gloss comes in a long transparent tube with quilted black cap.</i><br />

<i>The applicator is doe foot type. The application does not come out even on the lips and I smudge and even out with my fingers every time.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Priced at Rs. 500 for 5.9 ml. Yup hiked prices ;)</i><br />

<br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>The gloss is a juicy pink shade with silver shimmers that do not look stark but give a sparkly look to the lips. The lip gloss does not work as office wear for me. More of a casual wear. </i><br />

<i>What pisses me off the most in makeup products other than frosty shimmers in lipsticks? Number system instead of names. How are we less mortals supposed to remember the numbers of lipsticks and blushes? </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Glam 6 is a deep dark grape shade and I am calling it *Grape Squash*. I think that sounds better dontcha gals ;) If black grapes could stain my lips it would this exact shade. Revlon Colorburst lipstick in Grape would come close.</i><br />

<i>The applicator has a petal like (?) shape to it that deposits color evenly. But then, it is too big for my lips and the color smears outside my lips during application :(</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>The lip polish has a creamy texture and no shimmery surprise :) On application, it gives the glossiest finish and opaque coverage ( I am nt sure about the other shades though)I have ever obtained from a lip gloss. Lips do look fuller and smoother.</i><br />

<i>Sits comfortably on the lips and is not sticky. Feels light weight and doe not bleed despite being<br /> creamy. Lip gloss, Lipstick and Lip balm in a tube ? I tend to agree with Maybelline on this :)</i><br />

<i>Remember I had bought 2 MAC lipsticks along with the Kryolan Blush palette?? I had reviewed one of them long back :MAC See Sheer which is one of the best shades in my vanity.

<i><br /></i>
<i>Comes in the standard MAC packaging and is priced at Rs.990/-It is a part of the permanent line.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Captive is a lovely plummy pink shade.Totally a wintery shade.I tend to stick to peachy/coral pinks as plums and berries look too deep on me. But Captive has the right mix of plum and pink that suits me for a change :D </i><br />

<i>The shade is from the Satin range meaning it sets to a semi matte finish and provides good color pay off without drying out the lips.The lipstick has a light creamy texture and imparts enough color to cover mild discoloration in a single swipe.It can be easily build to opaque finish without patchiness.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Being a Satin lipstick, it is not hydrating but does not dry out the lips either. Does not feather or </i><br />
<i>bleed.</i><br />

<i>The staying power is 3 hrs max with a lip balm underneath.</i><br />

<i><b>VERDICT :</b></i><br />
<br />
<i>If u love plummy wintery shades, then look out for this next time u visit MAC store. I prefer wearing Captive with deep shades of kurtis and Colorbar Cosmic rose blush :)</i></div>

<i>Dear God,</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i> I can't thank u enough for bringing Coral pinks be it lip colors or blushes or clothes into my life! They make my life prettier and every damn thing in that damn color looks gorgeous! Now all I need is Coral pink shoes and bags to match and it is Diwali Time..just saying!</i><br />

<i>Lakme Absolute gloss comes in a cylindrical transparent tube with a dark silver cap.It has Lakme Absolute Plump and Shine Gloss written over the tube. The shade name is printed on the cap which has already faded on mine.Y couldn't they print on the underside of the tube :\</i><br />
<br />
<i>Consists of doe foot applicator.But I find application patchy as with the Maybelline High Shine glosses. </i><br />

<i>It is bright but not overtly so.For me it works best as office wear.Just dab a bit over my lower lips and even out with fingers.If I apply it in full intensity it is attention grabbing. Also, the application with the wand comes out lil patchy.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>The color would suit range of Indian skin colors from fair to dark.Fair skin would love this shade. If u r someone who cannot carry pink lip colors cuz of yellow skin, do give this a try :)</i><br />

<br />
<i>The shade Pink shine is a cream gloss devoid of shimmers.That makes it all the more awesome.</i><br />
<br />
<i>Lass for 1.5 hrs max if worn sheered out and 3.5 hrs max in full intensity. The 6 hrs claim is a sham ;)</i><br />
<br />
<i><b>VERDICT :</b></i><br />
<i>Must have gloss shade from the Absolute range. It has overshadowed my love for Revlon papaya to become a new favorite.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i><b>P.s </b>: Pair it up with a coral pink/peachy pink blush.Lakme Day blushes/Maybelline Peachy Sweetie/Colorbar Peachy Rose/Inglot 32 would be my suggestions </i><br />

<i>The packaging of the new kajal is similar to the old one. Peppy yellow tube with Maybelline The Colossal Kajal written in black.I find the packaging flimsy.

<i><br /></i>
<i>The Kajal is dark black but not jet black.My Bourjois Khol pencil is still the darkest I have used till date. I feel Lakme Eyeconic and Colossal have similar pigmentation levels but Colossal lacks the greyish tinge that Eyeconic has. Brownie points for Colossal ;)</i><br />

<i><br /></i>
<i>Colossal has a soft texture and does not tug at the waterline. But the texture makes it harder to line the upper lash line as it can break easily.IMO, this is softer and creamier than Eyeconic.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>The kajal does not weigh down the waterline.</i><br />

<i><br /></i>
<i>Smudgeproof??The kajal does not smudge once it sets which it does after a few seconds.Most of the kajals do not smudge on my dry lids.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>I tested it under running water and there was very little smudging.Eyeconic scores a point here as it held on better :)</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Lasts for a very long time.I wore it at 8.30 a.m. and at 10.30 p.m. it was still present with some fading.So it does keep up the 12 hr claim at least on me ( I work under ac conditions and hardly break a sweat).</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>The only good thing about working a 12 hr schedule + 2 hr travel is that I can breezily test the staying power of my makeup ;)</i><br />
<br />
<i>U can check out the kajal at </i><br />

<i><br /></i>
<i><b>VERDICT : </b> </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>The new version of the Colossal Kajal is definitely an improvement over the 6 hr one. It gives tough competition to Lakme Eyeconic kajal from the same price range. I personally like alternating between the 2 :) Would give this 4 out of 5. </i><br />

<br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>The drawback of the new range is that nearly all of the lipsticks contain shimmers in them :( The shade Pink Bureau is a deep rose-red with minute golden shimmers that do shoe up on the lips.I do not get why Lakme had to introduce shimmers in a lipstick that too a matte one!Totally ruins for me.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>The lipstick is priced at 400 bucks.These days makeup prices have gone through the roof.U can hardly find decent options below 400 Rs.And why not..Onions sell for a century ;)</i><br />

<br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Okay the texture. The lipstick has a smooth texture and can be applied easily without any tugging. Application is even.Sets to a pure matte finish in 1-2 min.Being a matte lipstick, it tends to settle into fine lines and accentuate dry lips.

<i>The lipstick packs a punch on the pigmentation front.One single swipe is enough to cover discoloration and provide the bright color to the lips.</i><br />

<i>The lipstick feels drying after 1/2 an hr or so. I need to keep applying lip balm every now and then. Also, I noticed that my lips feel drier after the lipstick wears off :( So ladies with chapped lips u have been warned!</i><br />

<i>Lasts for 3.5-4 hrs when I blot and nearly 6 hrs in full intensity.</i><br />

<i><b>VERDICT :</b></i><br />
<i><br />Lakme has introduced pretty everyday wear shades in the 9 to 5 range and every1 would find definitely a color to suit provided u r okay with the pure matte finish.I would have picked p few more shades had they been creamy and shimmer free kinds :)</i></div>

<i>The shade Violet Attitude is a Fuchsia Pink with silver shimmers.Though the color looks intense in the tube, it comes out sheer on the lips.Just a hint of pink and the shimmers are not OTT.

<i>I know u guys would think *hardly any color or staying power but still the gal loves it.she must be crazy* Crazy I am but u haven't experienced the agony of severely chapped lips or the divine fragrance of this gloss!

<i> </i><i>The shade Peachy Sweetie is a peachy pink color the kind that is youthful and fresh.The blush has discernible silver shimmer on the pan but being averagely pigmented the shimmer shows up very well on my skin when I load it up. I wish it was more pigmented but this would serve the blush beginners well. I am okay with the shimmers though I would not wear it everyday. That is just a personal preference :) </i><br />

<i>Pure Matte lipsticks make me run away screaming for mercy! My lips cannot survive the Sahara desert texture of the matte lipsticks. Add bold colors to that and I find my recipe of disaster ;)</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>I was so apprehensive of trying out the bold matte lipsticks but one swipe and I was sold out.</i><br />

<i>The bold matte lipsticks come in 5 shades from MAT 1 to MAT 5 and are priced at Rs.375/-. Internationally they have been assigned names. The one I got for review MAT 4 is bestowed with "Vivid Coral". But MAT 4 is anything but coral. It is a reddish orange shade that looks very bright on my fair skin.The brightness is not the garish sort.More of a punch of color. Due to being a warm shade this one will be a winner across all Indian skin colors :) Colorbar Creme Touch lipstick in Tangerine is less intense and more orangish while Inglot 37 is more reddish :)</i><br />

<i>The packaging is similar to the colorsensational ones but classy with the top cover being a matte reddish pink.The colorsensational ones I own have loads of scratches all over but I doubt that would occur with these. Also the typical caramel smell is absent in the bold mattes.Thumbs up for that!</i><br />

<i>These are not true matte lipsticks. More of a semi matte with a smooth texture that just glides over the lips.The Super stay lipsticks had a hard texture that tugged a lot and were damn drying.The bold matte lipsticks are hydrating and perfect for gals who are unsure but still hold a desire to try matte lipsticks. :)The pigmentation is good.A single swipe is suffice for my lips.</i><br />

<i>I am in love with the texture and finish of the Bold matte lipsticks. MAT 4 is a bright reddish orange shade that is oomphalicious. I am already planning to buy MAT1 and MAT2 on my next shopping trip ! U guys got to try these lip colors!</i><br />
<br />
<i>I would rate these 4.5 out of 5 ;)</i><br />

Biotique Bio Color lipstick in Mocha Silk !<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<i>I have always been the girl attracted to pink lipsticks.Almost all of my fav lipsticks are from the pink family. But My Mahogany is one of my favorite non pink lipsticks :) It is a warm peachy brown that goes wonderfully well with brown liner. If u have been trying hard to get ur hands on My Mahogany I would recommend u to check out Mocha Silk! It is 97% same just a teeny weeny bit peachier.I am sure both would look the same on lips :) I also have a feeling that this shade might wash out very fair skin.</i><br />

<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><i>The lipstick comes in a black case which is practical and sturdy
but not chic. They could have given more thought to the packaging.</i></li>
<li><i>The biotique bio color lipsticks are priced at Rs.225/- </i></li>
<li><i>The texture is not exactly creamy but glides without tugging.</i></li>
<li><i>Would accentuate dry flakes so exfoliation and moisturizing with
baby lips prior to application will do u good.</i></li>
<li><i>Has a vanilla-plastic mixture kinda smell that vanishes a few minutes after application.</i></li>
<li><i>Sets to a matte finish but not drying.It exudes a slight glossiness initially. I go over with my chapstick after application.</i></li>
<li><i>Staying power is less for a matte finish lipstick. The average wear time I got was the same as Bamboo : 3 hours. It fades to a tint after food.</i></li>
