Faces is a very known brand in India for the affordable range of Makeup. I simply love their lipsticks and eye pencils. Well this eye pencil is from their Long wear Pro range and is in the shade Turquoise blue.
Price and Quantity :
The Faces Long Wear Pencils come at 249 INR for 1.15 g of product
My Take:
The product comes in a pencil for which one needs to sharpen as they use it. The main problem in that case is the breakage that happens due to sharpening and the soft texture of the product. That means a lot of wastage of product . The packaging is neat with the pencil having a black matte body and the information are inscribed on it with silver. The shade is presented through a color coded end and caps so that you can find them easily.
The pencil is quite smooth and glides on the lids without any tugging and gave dark color in just one swipe. I apply it on my eyes and even on my oily lids they stay until I remove it with makeup remover. The intensity lessens after 5 to 6 hours but the color remains until fully removed.
The color is a turquoise blue and it’s intensity can be varied with swipes. So I love this eye pencil for the days on which I want my eyes to stand out. I’ve felt no irritations or anything from using this pencil and on the waterline it did not sting my eyes. The pencil is totally worth the 250 bucks.
PROS:
Easy to use
Available both online and offline
Good shades to choose from
Staying power is quite nice
Price is quite decent and about 100 Rs less than it’s Colorbar counterpart
One swipe gives good color payoff
CONS:
Sharpening results in product wastage
Soft product tends to break while using
Rating: 4/5
So Do I Suggest?:
Yes. Of course, I keep them in the lower compartment of the fridge door so that it does not become soft . And this is compulsory in summers.
Will I Repurchase?:
I will but in other shades. Strangely this shade of blue does not complement my skin tone. I love green and purple.

My Experience with this Product
This Faces Glam on Eyeshadow comes in a cute black case which is handy and travel friendly. It doesn’t come with a mirror or a brush, but that doesn’t bother me. This eyeshadow has a beautiful golden bronze shade which would suit Indian skin tones well. The texture is very silky, smooth and soft. I needed just a little bit for my whole eyelids so, it is long lasting. It doesn’t have any irritating smell or something like that. To say about the staying power of the eyeshadow, it is pretty good. It stays upto 6 hours without creasing or colour changing. After that, it fades eventually and saves your natural look. There are gold, bronze and brown like shimmer particles present in this eyeshadow and thus makes this a party one too. Overall, the shade is highly pigmented, smooth and good staying. The staying power is not the best, but really good. I just expected the price could be little less for the mono shade.

“Give your lips something to smile about with Glam on Lip Gloss. The combination of deep moisturizer and a yummy vanilla flavour makes your lips silky and soft.” These are the lines mentioned in the kit about this lip gloss.
I have always been a fan of subtle, at the same time glossy lip glosses and this is really one among them. This Faces Glam on lip gloss is the part of the newly launched Silk Luxury Makeup Range of Faces Canada Cosmetics. Luckily, I got a very wonderful shade which would perfectly suit dusky skin complexions. This is my favorite colour and hence I fell for it at the first sight. Previously, I reviewed the Glam on Eye Shadow Duo, Silken Finish Pressed Powder and Silken Peach Lipstick from this range and eagerly waited to review this lip gloss. Finally I got time, and here comes my complete review. I will be reviewing the Eyeshadow soon too, that’s the only thing left from this range.
Few lines about Faces Cosmetics: FACES is a proven, successful cosmetics & skincare company established in 1974 in Canada. It enables women of all ethnic backgrounds and skin types to find the perfect match for their unique needs. From skin care to foundations, from eye color to lipsticks.

My Views and Ratings
The Packaging The lip gloss comes in a cute transparent tube with a silver coloured top screw lid. Because of the sturdiness, I would say it travel friendly. The pack is very handy and comes with a soft sponge applicator inside. Every application is in control because of the long applicator. Overall, I loved the packaging. No bad I find in it.
5/5
Colour, Consistency and Fragrance I am very much impressed of it’s super soft rose colour and loved using it every time on my lips. The lip gloss glides smoothly over my lips and spreads without any hardness. The shade is highly pigmented, not at all sheer and has no glitter or shimmer particles in it. Even though there is no shimmer, it is so shiny and glossy which is perfect for everyday use. The best part about this lip gloss is its fragrance. It is a kinda hot caramel mixed with vanilla smell which is so lingering and sweet. This is the best smelling lip gloss I have ever used till now. So, I am not going to cut any ratings for this part too. 5/5
How it Works The gloss spreads so smoothly on my lips without any clumsiness. It gives a shiny finish covering the imperfections up to a limit. I would say it as a good pigmented lip gloss for mature and dark lips. It has a very sweet fragrance but no taste 😛 that’s better because it will stay on my lips for more time. While coming to the staying power, it hardly stays for 3 hours. This is the only thing I felt little disappointed about this lip gloss. For the price, I expected a little more staying power. But, for its other qualities, this can’t be taken as a major con. And the another thing is, I felt little sticky for the first few minutes. After that, the lip gloss is perfect on my lips. Overall, I loved it!
4/5
PROS
Glossy and shiny finish without leaking or settling into fine fines.
The shade. I loved it to core.
More than the shade, the fragrance is too adorable.
Sturdy, cute and travel friendly packaging.
No itchy feel or irritation. Totally side effect free.
Moisturizes dry lips well and locks moisture up to few hours.
The shade is not at all overpowering, at the same time it’s not sheer.
Covers pigmentation and uneven color well.
Gives an opaque coverage with two swipes.
CONS
Staying power of 3 hours. I expected a little more for the price.
May be a little sticky for some people.
Contains Parabens (Not a big con because every other product do so)
My Recommendation: I highly recommend this lip gloss to everyone! Almost suits every skin type. The staying power should be better though.
Overall Rating: 4/5
Will I repurchase?: Sure! Because of the fragrance, I cant stop using it 😛 Yummy
