                                                                                                                 Yours Obviously
                                                                                                                 Coral Pink Lover



I wrote this letter after experiencing bliss from swatching all my coral pink makeup ;)

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 :\

Consists of doe foot applicator.But I find application patchy as with the Maybelline High Shine glosses.

Little pricey at Rs.450 for 3 ml.

The shade Pink Shine is super gorgeous.It is a beautiful blend of pink and coral leaning more towards pink. It is the perfect my kind of shade :) 

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.

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 :)

The gloss has great pigmentation.Discolored lips can be easily covered with 2 swipes.

It has a soft creamy and slightly sticky texture and feels moisturizing and light on the lips.The stickiness is mild and not bothersome at all.

Smells like custard powder :D

The shade Pink shine is a cream gloss devoid of shimmers.That makes it all the more awesome.

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 ;)

VERDICT :
Must have gloss shade from the Absolute range.  It has overshadowed my love for Revlon papaya to become a new favorite.

P.s : 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

Get Cheeky Giveaway : Entry 7 by Nickita!

Nickita has sent her first entry for the get cheeky giveaway :) So which is her favorite blush?? A sister of the blush I am giving away :D 

I'm in love with this amazing blush from Lakme - Absolute Cheek Chromatic Baked Blush and it is called Night sheen :D.OOOO for some reason I love the way it sounds :P. The shade is copper and it has tiny glitter particles perfect for the night out to make you stand amongst the rest. It is buildable and will look incredible on wheatish skin ^_^. <3 the way it blends on to the skin and remains there for a very looooooooooooong time.

I give this blush an A+++ :*

Editor's Note : I had wanted to pick this up  but the SA kept saying it would not suit me and would look muddy :( But next time I am picking this up for sure :) Fantastic Pics hon! Luks gorgeous on ur hands :)

So what is ur makeup backup??

Oh my the title rhymes!

I had commitment issues till last year. But at the end of last year, I stumbled upon this cute thing :P

U know that oh-so-gorgeous coral-peach-pink melange I gushed about?? yeah the same Lakme Absolute Chromatic Cheek blush in Day Blushes ;)

I got a backup for it! I do own a lot of blushes but never had I feared that a particular shade will get over and I wouldn't be able to find it in the stores anymore! This blush made me sweat every time I swiped my brush over it. The reason?? Sometimes my skin looks too yellowish and dull and pink blushes look umm awkward on me.The coral-peach-pink combination of Lakme Day Blushes makes it a no nonsense blush :) I can use it without second thoughts any time of the day :)

Plus Lakme is one hell of a heart breaker brand :( They tend to discontinue their prized cosmetics :\ So I am not taking chances this time :P

U have already seen d swatches but more isn't gng to hurt is it?? :P This blush would undoubtedly look great on fair/medium skin :)

So which cosmetic product do u own a backup of??
Share share :)

Blush Lust: Lakme Absolute Cheek Chromatic Blusher in Day Blushes Review and Swatches!

Meet my new Boyfriend! Whenever I see him I blush! Not only blush a little glow too ;) And he goes by the name Day Blushes :)

Let me tell you a story : This girl was just stepping into the makeup world.Lakme had released the Earth Trio blush.The girl did not understand why she had to pay 600 bucks for a blush! So she didn't get it though it was being raved everywhere.She had money but no understanding.And by the time she realized its importance the blush was discontinued sob sob!! I so feel bad for the girl!
 
 8 Pretty pink Everyday Wear Blushes  

So when the Day blusher was released by Lakme she decided that she would get it by hook or crook!And of course she did.That is why you are reading the review now :P

• Lakme had introduced 4 shades of blushes under the Absolute Range.All of them have shimmers but the Day Blushes is the least shimmery.
• The packaging consists of a plastic round box inside which the dome shaped blush is placed.The top part is transparent with a L logo inscribed on it :) Classy I must say.It would also help if u own more than 1 blush from the range :)

• The blush is a beautiful coral-peach-pink combination.Though I own blushes from all the 3 color families I don't have anything like this!

• The texture is very soft and hence the fall out is huge.So no swirling with this ;)
• It is highly pigmented.On a scale of 0-5 I would give it 4.5.

• Blending is easy.No patches here.

• The finish is a subtle glow on the cheeks. U can't exactly find out the shimmer unless u are directly under strong light :)
• Lasting power was about 3 hours on my cheeks. That is average but with a shade so pretty I can easily overlook that!
• It retails for Rs.550 but u can get it for Rs.522 at medplusbeauty.com.

VERDICT:
I adore this blush from the range.Wish Lakme introduces matte blushes too.I am eyeing the Night Sheen next. It is a gorgeous peachy golden shade :)
