Presenting the perfect Peachy Brown for the Indian ladies! Biotique Bio Color lipstick in Mocha Silk !

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.



  • The lipstick comes in  a black case which is practical and sturdy but not chic. They could have given more thought to the packaging.
  • The biotique bio color lipsticks are priced at Rs.225/- 
  • The texture is not exactly creamy but glides without tugging.
  • Would accentuate dry flakes so exfoliation and moisturizing with baby lips prior to application will do u good.
  • Has a vanilla-plastic mixture kinda smell that vanishes a few minutes after application.
  • Sets to a matte finish but not drying.It exudes a slight glossiness initially. I go over with my chapstick after application.
  • 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.







VERDICT :
If u are a warm toned gal who loves peachy browns then do check out this one :)

Lipstick Love: Revlon Colorburst Lipstick In Rosy Nude Review and swatches!


I am in a Lipstick frenzy these days! I do like Colorful makeup but let's say it is hard to wear in the place I live ;) So I stick to neutrals :) 

Revlon Colorburst Lipstick In Rosy Nude is one such versatile shade that would make you look polished under most occasions :) 

The Colorburst range from Revlon is nothing unfamiliar :) Moving on to the review :)





  • The packaging is sleek with a checkered pattern on the lipstick case :)
  • The price is Rs. 610/- for 3.7 g.Definitely on the higher side.It used to sell for 550 bucks when I purchased the (in)famous Peach in 2011.
  • The shade Rosy Nude (065) is a warm Pinkish Brown shade.It looks MLBB on my lips.
  



  • The shade is lighter and has more brown in it compared to the Lakme Rose Kissed Lipstick.The latter I feel would be more apt for the fair and medium skin color while the Rosy Nude would suit a wider range of skin colors :)
  • The texture is buttery soft.Glides smoothly even on chapped lips.But since it is creamy more than a swipe will accentuate the dry flakes.


  • The finish is between creamy-glossy.
  • The Pigmentation I would rate 4.5 out of 5. Well pigmented and 2 swipes would be enough to cover all discolorations.
  • The lipstick is neither moisturizing nor drying.
  • Even after being so creamy it does not bleed.
  • The staying power is low.Lasts for only 2 hours on my lips.
  • Does not leave behind any tint.It vanishes from the lips *poof* 
VERDICT:
It may seem like a lot of cons but the color is a must have :) It has the quality of making you look sophisticated.Neutrals like this can be worn anywhere and with most looks :) One of the best neutral shades in the market :) I reckon u grab this before they *discontinue* it ahem ahem! Revlon is becoming my favorite Lipstick brand ;)

Lipstick Love: StreetWear Color Rich Lipcolor In Pink Pie Swatches and Review!!

Am going to review the other lipstick that I purchased during my chutku haul :)
It is the Streetwear Color rich lipclor in Pink Pie!I have already reviewed the Pink Satin Lipstick from this range here :)

I am a great fan of J.Lo's nude lips and always sigh when I watch The Wedding Planner..wish I could nick her lipcolors!
So I am foreva on the lukout of nude and beige colors.
 I went to SS and to the Streetwear counter and found so many lipsticks under the color rich range..The H & G in Pondy Bazaar had pathetic color selection.only 5 or 6 colors and all were damn dark and so un-wearable :S
But in SS the colors were so pretty and I couldn't resist picking up one even though I hate the packaging!




The same packaging as that of Pink satin..of course!Very flimsy and the lipstick tends to melt in summer!U cant carry it..u will end up throwing ur pretty handbag ;)\

  
Pink pie is a pretty pink with peachy undertones :) Swatches show it as more pinkish but I verified again while typing out this post..yup it definitely has peach in it ;) Does not feel smooth on the lips and has a semi matte finish.But at the price this will do.


Very wearable color but it bleeds!Compliments fair and dusky skin tones and gives great coverage even on pigmented lips :) Lasts for max 3 hours without food.

Get this one for the beautiful shade if u r ready to accept its cons :)

Lipstick Love: Lakme Lip Love In Rose Kissed Swatches and Review!

Lakme is obsessed with rose  and kiss :P First it was the Cheek Artist from the Fantasy Collection "Kiss of Rose" (which was a gr8 blush :) ) And now the Rose Kissed Lipstick from their Lip Love range!


It is a warm pink color tat luks darker on the tube!










Luks darker in d swatch


The lipstick spells glam in the packaging.I adore the "LOVE" inscribed on the tube as well as the lipstick bullet :D :P
It is so creamy..just glides over my lips :D
 And It can be worn on an everyday basis with a light hand and when a little darkened is perfect for night outs!! 
Pigmentation is high.The swatch is of single swipe.
Finish is creamy and looks glossy for half an hr or so.
The Color lasts on me for 4 hrs without any food.but fades in case I take food to a light almost MLBB rose shade :D
 And am not gonna comment on the *inflation* of Lakme Products!!

            Highly Recommend this shade as it will suit most Indian skin tones!!
