Hi Girls,

Another of my recent make-up buys were the L`oreal Paris SuperLiner Gelmatic Pens. 
These are gel-based twistable Pencil Eyeliners that have been recently launched by L`oreal Paris in India as a part of their L`Or Lumiere Collection.
Price of each is Rs. 425 for 3g.




They have been launched in a variety of gorgeous shades but I purchased two of them based on my requirement. I needed something shimmery yet subtle enough for daywear and these eyeliners perfectly fit the criteria. I bought the shades Glamour Gold and Deep Brown. The swatches are below.

GLAMOUR GOLD

DEEP BROWN
  
I broke the tip of the golden one while swatching it. This usually happens when the product is old and dried out but I guess they are a bit too delicate and have to be dealt with caution.

The eyeliners when applied on the eyes are not too creamy as one would expect a liner of gel consistency to be. Infact a couple of strokes are required to bring out its true color. Although once that`s done the colors are simply beautiful.

They are unique shades and have somewhat of a neutral quality to them, even the bright shades I saw in the store. They are very much work appropriate or great for daytime wear due to this quality and looked stunning with my brown eyes. Pigmentation is amazing and the shimmer effect is the star of the show. Staying power is great. The liner doesn`t budge from its place for the whole day!

BUT, BUT, BUT... there was a big disappointment in my case. 

After about half an hour of getting tonnes of compliments about how beautiful my eyes looked that day...MY EYES STARTED WATERING LIKE CRAZY and TURNED RED :(((((
There was no burning or itching as such but I could barely keep them open...I took off the eyeliner with my makeup remover and washed them thoroughly with a gentle foaming facewash. And MAN WAS I RELIEVED!

I immediately inferred that there was some ingredient in those eyeliners that irritated my eyes. I do have sensitive eyes but I was really sad that that they acted up at this occasion when I was soooo excited to have bought them and use them and even get compliments about them.

I looked helplessly at those pieces of marvel lying on my dresser and decided I will sell them off in a blog sale. Anyone interested in buying them please comment below.


So I highly recommend trying them out on your eyes before purchasing them. And if allergy is not a problem, then they are a brilliant buy.

BFFs L`oreal Cherry Crush and  Maybelline Glam 9


Hey Everyone,

Its time I started talking about all that makeup n stuff I recently blogged about.
I`m enjoying wearing my latest Lipstick and Lipgloss combination these days. They`re like two BFFs. Yeah seriously they`re so similar it`s hard to differentiate them if it was not for their packaging.
I`m talking about the L`oreal Lipstick in Cherry Crush and the Maybelline Lip Polish in Glam 9.

They are the yummiest girlie pink shades so suitable and refreshing for this Summer season when the Neon shades are a rage. And what better, they do have a certain bit of subtle neon quality about them, especially the Lipstick, which makes them all the more desirable, although the Lippolish is a bit more daily wear pink kinds. But their combi is like the perfect BFFs turning into the perfect Barbie Doll Pink / Bubble Gum Pink shade on the lips.

 On Lips:  L`OREAL CHERRY CRUSH LIPSTICK alone


On Lips:  MAYBELLINE GLAM 9 LIPPOLISH alone

Together : THE BFF COMBINATION 

L`oreal Cherry Crush is priced at Rs. 899/- for 4.2g and Maybelline Glam 9 is priced at Rs 499/- for 5ml. Yes pretty expensive for someone like me so frequently shelling out money for buying new products constantly. After all there is soooo much to buy always !

Now moving onto the Packaging and Textures.


The Product:  L`OREAL CHERRY CRUSH LIPSTICK

The Loreal Cherry Crush Lipstick comes in this beautiful supershiny golden to rose gold packaging with the lock depicting the Lipstick shade on the outside of the packaging which is very convenient if u plan to buy a few of these. The lock is decently tight and the lipstick is very lightweight. But most importantly when i applied it on my lips its just glided and it felt sooooo very light, that i almost forgot I was wearing any lipstick after some time till i glanec onto the mirror accidently...it was that lightweight and comfortable. Its look is matte but it didn’t leave my lips dry like most matte lipsticks do. Infact my lips felt moisturised after i took it off. The staying power was decent ...about 4-5 hours but i noticed that it had a tendency to settle within my lip creases and after about two hours of wear i had to redistribute the color on my lips so it looked even.

The Product:  MAYBELLINE GLAM 9 LIPPOLISH 
The Maybelline Glam 9 Lip Polish....Its really not a Polish....Maybelline has produced ubershiny Lip Polishes in the past which had immense staying power and ease of application contrary to this new so called Lip Polish Glam Range. These are more of Balmy Lip Glosses than Lip Polishes. The packaging is although cute and handy. The brush could have been better....I don’t know if its the shape or the fibre on it but it did not give me an even application on first go and it had a tendency to accumulate at places on the lips.  I had to keep spreading the “Lip  Polish” on my lips to get an even application and a slight effort was required to evenly redistribute it. Not to mention i was disappointed with the Shine Factor.

Overall I would highly recommend buying the Loreal Cherry Crush Lipstick but I could easily give the Maybelline Lip Polish a miss the next time I go out looking for a basic pink lipgloss.

Hiiiiii Girrrrrls ...

Laroche Posay
EFFACLAR K
                                      Renovating care for oily skin, Anti-Relapse

Hey Everyone, 

I'm here to talk about  Effaclar K today. 


 

This is a miracle product for anyone suffering from mild acne and rough and bumpy skin texture due to whiteheads and blackheads. It is a white oil-free moisturiser that has a pungent smell but totally bearable. I was advised to use it at night after washing and toning my face and was promised by my cosmetologist that it would help me get rid of my acne, scars, whiteheads, blackheads, and large pores around my nose. 
AND this is what exactly happened after a week`s usage ! 
THIS is how my skin looks like these days :) I am not wearing any makeup product when i took this selfie. Just a face moisturiser and colorless lip balm.
I highly recommend this product to anyone who faces the problem of mild acne or large pores. It will be a skin-changing product for sure .
