Inglot Freedom System Refill Lipstick 53 Review and Swatches

23 Replies

Hey friends,

Today I am going to review Inglot Freedom System Refill Lipstick in Shade No.53 from my loads of lip refills that I brought recently from Majorbrands, an online shopping store.


Price:

Rs.250 for 1.2g (Now increased to Rs.300)


Availability:

The inglot refill lipsticks are available online store at Majorbrands.

My Take:

The Inglot lip refill comes in a small cute pan. The lipstick in shade 53 is lovely neon pink. It is easy to carry while travelling as it comes in cute plastic case in which the lip refills remain secure. You can use the lip refill keeping it in the plastic case (which you will not found in my picture as I removed it to keep it in empty palette).

The smell of the lipstick is fruity which fades away after sometime. The texture of the lipstick is creamy in nature but when applied on lips it turns out to matte which is not drying at all. The lipstick is quite pigmented, 1-2 swipes with lip brush is enough to get the actual color. Being creamy in texture the lipstick tends to bleed a little which can be avoided if applied with a lip liner. The color stays for 3-4 hours which I think is fair enough comparing to the price.

The lipstick survives small snacks and drinks like tea and cold drinks but can’t survive big meals and leave no tint behind. The lipstick is easily transferable to cup and glass which is the only drawback I think.

PROS:

  • The lip refill is very handy to use
  • Easy to carry while travelling
  • Lip refill comes in a plastic case that can be used to keep lip refill securely
  • Pigmented
  • Stays 3-4 hours.
  • Survive small snack.
  • Affordable price.

CONS:

  • It can’t survive heavy meals
  • Easily transferable to cups and glasses

 

Rating: 4/5

 

My Recommendation: 

These lipsticks are quite affordable and has many shades to choose. There are loads of shades for fair to dusky skin tones so I think everybody will get their shade of choice. And being compared to the prices the lipsticks are so affordable that at least one should be there in your lipstick kitty!

L’Oreal Paris Absolute Repair Cellular Conditioner Review

18 Replies

A shampoo is always incomplete without a conditioner. And now days pollution has been increased so much that a proper hair care regime should be maintain. I just reviewed the Loreal Absolute Cellular Shampoo recently and today I am going to review the absolute repair cellular conditioner from L’Oreal.


Product Description:

Price and Quantity:

Rs.600/- for 200 g

My Take:

The conditioner comes in a tub like container. The conditioner is thick in nature. The color is just like the shampoo, light yellowish in color. The smell of both shampoo and conditioner are same. As the conditioner is thick so care should be taken while taking out excess and applying the excess amount on hair as excess conditioner tends to weigh down your hair. So my suggestion is to use it just like the shampoo. Take out conditioner as an amount of two rupee coin for first application followed by more if required.

Okay enough of goody – goody things now a small negative point that I want to share with you all is that the tub container seems little unhygienic because taking out of the conditioner with fingers is not hygienic, I wish it comes in a bottle. Secondly the tub is not travel friendly because while travelling if the tub turns upside down in your bag then the whole content comes towards its lids which may cause massive spill out while opening the lid which happens with me once. And being non transparent tub you can’t see the content from outside so may not be conscious about it.

Over in all leaving this container problem I like the conditioner. It makes my hair soft and manageable until next wash (Yes the effects doesn’t last long which may be consider as a con) 🙁

PROS:

  • It manages your frizziness and removes the dullness of your hair
  • Require fewer amounts so it lasts really long
  • Love the smell
  • The smell lasts long until your next wash

CONS:

  • Pricey (but require less so it should not be a problem)
  • The tub is unhygienic to use

 

Rating: 4/5

 

My Recommendation:

Definitely yes if your hair is frizzy and dull like mine but it might not suit oily scalps and oily hair types. But this L’Oreal conditioner works great on dry hair and dry scalp.

L’Oreal Paris Absolute Repair Cellular Shampoo Review

18 Replies

Hey friends!

This is my first post on MABH and I am really excited about it. And today I am going to share my experience with my newly brought shampoo L’Oreal shampoo.


Why I brought this? Well, recently I found that due to weather change my hair feels so rough, look so dull and having frizziness so I thought to try out L’Oreal range of shampoo. After reading loads of reviews (Yes I too read reviews before buying any product, I guess this is the great facility when you read blogs) I decided to buy this set of absolute repair shampoo and conditioner. I will review the conditioner back 2 back with Shampoo.

 

Claims:

Price and Quantity:

Rs. 500 for 250 ml

My Take:

The shampoo comes in a plastic yellow bottle with the flip cap opening. The typical shape of L’Oreal container helps you easily recognize the bottle among all. The bottle is not so attractive I agree but what is inside it is important. Let us see about that.

As I told you earlier that I brought the shampoo after reading many reviews on blogs. So I had high expectation from this shampoo. The shampoo is slightly yellowish in color just like the color of the bottle and is very thick.

Due to its thickness you might end up taking out a lot of product which I did for first time. And as you can’t open the bottle cap it’s hard to put back the excess of the product into the bottle again so care should be taken while pouring the shampoo on your palm. I better suggest you to take out a hazelnut amount first followed by more according to the requirements.

The shampoo requires fewer amounts to work up good lather and yes the smell is really nice and mild. It removes all the excessive oil and dirt at one go still for my satisfaction I apply twice. The shampoo works great on my dry hair mostly. After shampooing I can feel that it really works on my dry hair. I agree that this shampoo contain loads of chemicals but I think in this pollution atmosphere our hair need a strong protection which these natural ingredients contained shampoo can’t give your chemically treated or damaged hair.

 

PROS:

  • Love the smell
  • It makes my dull, rough, frizzy hair soft and smooth.
  • Need small amount so it lasts for 4 months approx
  • I admit its pricey but it require so less that it will last really long.

CON:

  • I don’t find any with this shampoo.

 

Rating: 

4.5/5 (I can’t be so biased to give it 5/5 because I will never say that it is a must try shampoo)

 

My Recommendation:

I highly recommend this shampoo  Definitely buy it if you have chemically treated dry or damaged hair but for people whose hair feels great on using natural shampoos should avoid using it as chemicals always tend to make your hair dry and brittle.
