Elle 18 Color Pops Lipstick Pomegranate Pie Review and Swatches

22 Replies

Hello everyone!

Today I am reviewing my most favorite lipstick till date. This was the first lipstick I ever bought and have been my HG shade ever since. Why is it so? Let’s see..

Price and Quantity:

Rs.100 for 4 ml

My Take:

The lipstick comes a cute black tube with a twist up bottom. The packaging is simple, elegant, girl and travel friendly. It will easily fit inside your clutch.

The lipstick has a beautiful gorgeous pink shade with mauve undertones. For every girl this will be a prized possession that I am sure of. I haven’t seen any skin tone which doesn’t get along with this one. This Elle 18 lipstick works well with warmer and cool skin tones. Go for a heavy kohl eye with this one and look amazing.. It works best with white, black, cream colored out fits.

It is a sheer lipstick but at the same time creamy enough to give moisture. It doesn’t bleed at all even in summers and offers complete coverage. It has a sweet bubble gum fragrance. You can use it alone without a balm for a rich color. By the way it looks perfect and mauve comes out in natural light.

This lipstick stays for 3 hours with light meals in between. It is easy to touch up! You don’t even need much swipes to get colour as it completely covers any pigmentation. I don’t have pigmentation but I can see that it will.

 

On My lips:

PROS:

  • Excellent color (Most beautiful pink I have seen in my collection)
  • Not balmy and not matte
  • Very moisturising
  • Suits every skin tone. It can be worn as an office shade too!
  • I can rave enough about this one. Please spare me.. Everything is perfect in this baby.

CONS:

  • Nothing to find fault.. (Staying power may be for someone but the price I get it’s not a con)

 

Rating: 5/5

 

Do I Recommend?:

For every one! As long as Elle 18 releases I will buy and recommend this beauty.

 

Would I Repurchase?:

Always. This is my second one already!

Elle 18 Color Pops Lipstick Cinnamon Bun Review and Swatches

Corals! They are one of the precious gem stones and precious colors for us girls. This beauty is one such precious colors. Let’s see if its lives up to the beauty of its color.


Price and Quantity:

Rs. 100 for 4.3 ml

Shelf Life: 

30 months

My Take:

These Elle 18 lippies come in the coolest packaging ever.. I just love that girl with all smoldering looks. The packaging is chic, handy and travel friendly. It is easy to use as well, with the twist up bottom.

This lipstick has a beautiful pinkish coral shade with orange undertones in it. It glides extremely well onto my lips and it smells like yummy bubble gum. It is an excellent nude for summer wear and office wear. It works great with warm skinned ladies as well as cool skinned girls. It’s a complete nude color for me and may wash out people with wheatish skin tones.

It is a sheer lipstick which balmy in texture and need really a lot of swipes for full coverage. You can see in my lip swatch below as well and I at least swiped for 20 times to and fro to achieve that pigmentation.

As any Elle 18 lipstick, since this is so balmy it stays for 2 hours maximum and if used with a lip gloss then stays for 3 to 4 hours. I use Elle 18 lip smoothie peach after glow to top this and that works good

 

On My lips:

 

PROS:

  • Excellent colour
  • Easy application
  • No ugly shimmers and this suits everyone
  • Looks glossy
  • Available easily
  • Beautiful safe coral for starters
  • Easy on pocket
  • This also acts as my perfect coral cream blush (Yep!)

CONS:

  • Balmy! So the staying power remain average. For the price, it is okay.
  • Doesn’t give a complete coverage.

 

Rating: 3.5/5

 

Do I Recommend?:

Yes of course! This is a really beautiful color. They do have variants which resemble this one but still.. My best coral blush…? I won’t say pass to this one. Many girls will love this particular nude Cinnamon Bun shade if they are lovers of bold eye makeup.

 

Would I Repurchase?:

Of course!

Elle 18 Eye Sparklers Blue Blast Review and Swatches

5 Replies

Hello Everyone!

Today I am going to review the Elle 18 Eye Sparklers. These are one of the best affordable eye makeup products available in India.

Price and Quantity: 

Rs.85 for 1.5 g

 

My Take:

A stout fat crayon pencil is the typical look of Elle 18 eye sparklera. The body of the pencil is black in color. It has a transparent plastic cap to shut close the crayon pencil tip.

If you remember the camlin blue ink we used once upon a time in our high school, I don’t have to explain the blue further. It is the same blue inky shade with a little sheen in look.

The texture is creamy and glides well on the eyelids. It does not get clumpy or streaky while applying. It defines a thick line along the line of swiping. Looks very creamy and attractive. It is easily smudgable too in case you want to form a blue eye shadow layer on eyelid.

When drawn as a stiff line to form a thick broad eyeliner, there is nothing to complain about. It stays on amazingly without smudging or getting creased. But when used as a eye shadow spreading across entire eyelid, it smudges. It is good for about 2 hours after application. Then on it creases too. And the creasing is just clearly visible.

So, I always go for a blue eyeliner look on the upper lash line with this Elle 18 eye sparkler.

Overall, for the rate it is available at, it is definitely worth praising. For all the eye color beginners this is a product that will give confidence in using more sophisticated product later on.

PROS:

  • Chubby crayon pencil packaging.
  • Creamy texture.
  • Glides neatly without clumping and streaking.
  • Bright shades fit for fun loving people.
  • Very cheap at price.
  • Excellent pigmentation.
  • Makes a very good colored eyeliner. 

CONS:

  • When used as an eye shadow, it creases heavily and smudges too.

 

Rating: 3.5/5


My Recommendation:

I highly recommend these Elle 18 chubbies! What better do you get at the rate of these Sparklers?

 

Would I Repurchase?:

Yes! I want the green shade.
