Lipstick Love: Bourjois Levres Contour Lip pencil in Peche Voluptueuse Review and Swatches!

I am not a fan of lip pencils courtesy my dry lips.But I can assure you the bourjois levres contour lip pencils are the bomb!They are soft and glide like honey baby!

Lip pencils are usually used to arrest the bleeding of lipsticks.They hold the lip color in place along with providing a better appearence.Actresses use the layering technique whereby they layer multiple lip products of similar/exact shades so even when the lipstick wears off they have color on their lips :)

Coming back to this lip pencil I got it because they didn't have Faces french rose lipstick/maybelline bronze orange/Colorbar obsessed orange/maybelline orange lipbalm/Lipice in orange anywhere :( The Bourjois SA asked me to try this and I liked it :)

Price: Rs.250/-





  • It is a solid wooden pencil.The color of the pencil is same as that of the lip color :) The eye pencils from this range are also made of wood.Simple and classy but environment :'(


  • The color is a peachy orange with lil red undertones :)
  • The texture is smooth..it does not tug and glides easily over lips.
  • Forms a matte finish.
  • Is super pigmented will cover the discolorations on the lips.
  • Tends to enhance the flaky part of lips so be sure to exfoliate your lips beforehand.
  • Dry lips definitely need a lipbalm underneath.
  • Stays put for 4 hours solid after which it starts fading.
  • Helps prevent lipstick from traveling from north to south :)
  • More suited to fair/medium skin.Might look harsh on deeper skin tones.
Verdict:
A peach shade that can brighten up ur face and day ;) A budget product u need to own atleast one of these :)

My Trip to the Kryolan Store!

I have been dying to check out the Kryolan store after reading Deepika's review on their blusher and I finally made it to the store which is located in the ground floor of Ramee mall (near dms stop).

The store is not big but classy and cute :D I asked them about taking snaps of the store and got so nervous while stating that I am a Beauty Blogger!!
I don't know if the 2 MUAs are going to read this but still Hi!! :D I forgot to get their names my bad but next time I will do tat for sure.


 The store houses so many products including foundations,pansticks,palettes,blushes,eyeshadows,brushes,lipsticks,eyelashes and many more stuff.They provide palettes for blushes too: 5 color and 15 color ones!It is like a mini heaven for Makeup Junkies :D
I was late and couldn't browse the store.But a red blush with shimmers caught my fancy!It looked so pretty.I am guessing it is Youth Red.Such a bright red with golden shimmers.But since I don't prefer shimmery ones I didn't get that.

Both the cream and powder blushes are priced the same: Rs.350/-.
I am definitely visiting the store again to get more blushes ;) Sorry about not paying attention to other products!Next time definitely ;)

And this is what I got:



                                           KRYOLAN DRY BLUSH IN LAKE!!(powder blush)

I wanted this after seeing it on Divassence and it turned out to be such a pretty Mauve shade!
2 words: Awesome Pigmentation!! I am testing out the staying power so will post the review soon :)
