Deborah Milano Euphoric Shine Lip gloss
Price: Rs. 595 for 10 ml
My Experience with this Product
It comes in a transparent curvy tube with a beautiful silver coloured lid. The applicator is long and makes every application comfortable with the soft sponge tip brush. The whole pack is sturdy and hence it becomes travel friendly and easy to carry around.
While coming to the texture, it is very light with glitters and shimmers floating on it. Some pink and white glitters are visible which not at all looks OTT on your lips. It has a mild sweet fragrance but not fruity or chocolaty. The gloss is smooth and spreads easily over my lips making my lips fuller. It also has a decent staying power of 3 to 4 hours, after that it eventually fades leaving just the shimmer.

 I didn’t feel any dryness on my lips even after the colour fades off, so dry lips will love it. Nothing bad I see about this lip gloss, but the only thing is that this may not suit pigmented lips as it is a sheer shade. It doesn’t cover pigmentation much but still it is a perfect cute pink lip gloss for everyday wear. In hurry while stepping out, I wear only this lip gloss without any lip stick and it looks good. It is light and perfect! Suits almost all skin types as the shade is not overpowering.
PROS
  1. Cute pink shimmery gloss which smoothly glides on to the lips.
  2. Sturdy and travel friendly packaging.
  3. Suits almost every skin type because of the soft shade. It is not overpowering at all.
  4. Keeps dry lips moisturized for a long time.
  5. Staying power is decent.
  6. Easy sponge tip applicator
  7. 10 ml?? It wont gets finished of soon.
  8. While seeing the quality and quantity they give, I don’t mind about the price.
  9. Nice fragrance, will also suit sensitive noses.
  10. No side effects, made my lips soft.
  11. Perfect everyday lip gloss.
CONS
  1. Not for pigmented lips without your lipstick.
  2. Availability may be a problem. But easily available at leading online shopping sites.
Overall Rating: 4.5/5
Recommendation: Sure, everyone can take a try. 10 ml will last longer!
Will I repurchase?: No doubt! I will.

Faces Glam On Lip Gloss Shade 044 Review

12 Replies
“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
  1. Glossy and shiny finish without leaking or settling into fine fines.
  2. The shade. I loved it to core.
  3. More than the shade, the fragrance is too adorable. 
  4. Sturdy, cute and travel friendly packaging.
  5. No itchy feel or irritation. Totally side effect free.
  6. Moisturizes dry lips well and locks moisture up to few hours.
  7. The shade is not at all overpowering, at the same time it’s not sheer.
  8. Covers pigmentation and uneven color well.
  9. Gives an opaque coverage with two swipes.
CONS
  1. Staying power of 3 hours. I expected a little more for the price.
  2. May be a little sticky for some people.
  3. 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

Nivea Glamorous Gloss Pink Sugar SPF 15 Review

15 Replies
I just got mad about lip balms and glosses these days! Lip balm is one of the product which I cannot live without (kajal too) The main reason for this is that I hate dry lips. If I be without lip balm for a day, my lips will start bleeding due to sensitivity, dryness and lack of nourishment. So whenever I shop, I always do look out for lip balms, especially my favorite pink or strawberry ones. Recently I reviewed VLCC Strawberry Lip Shield which I am satisfied with. Today I will be reviewing the Glamorous Gloss Pink Sugar lip gloss from Nivea. You would have guessed by now why I purchased this one! Especially for the “Pink” and “Sugar” mentioned on the name of this cute looking gloss tube. Pink is my favorite and about sugar… soo sweet!! So, picked it all of a sudden without any idea. What else is needed for a yummy, pinky lip gloss? hmm.. Okay now, can move to the review (I will stop blabbering) :p

❤ The Packaging
I will finish about describing this product short and sweet. Nivea Pink Sugar Gloss – Perfect Packaging! The product comes in tube which has a slanting tip applicator which is very easy and hygienic to use. The really glamorous pink colour of the pack with a semi transparent white cap tempts everyone to buy it! So, this product is very beautifully, compactly and hygienically packed. As the tube is semi transparent, we can easily guess how much is left in the tube. The cap is sturdy and hence it is travel friendly too. I loved the packaging of this lip gloss really very much.

❤ Colour, Consistency and Fragrance
I already said that I bought this product for the pink coloured cute tube and attractive name but unfortunately it is not pink at all 🙁 Very very slightly pink (Refer the below pic) which doesn’t show up on the lips. It only gives a heavy shine with shining glittery particles, not at all pink and so this transparent shiny texture disappointed me a lot. If you are a person who loves shiny and transparent lip glosses, then this will be your great pick!
 It has a thick consistency which I felt a bit sticky on my lips and the product doesn’t stay longer too. For the price, even though it’s not that costly I expected a little more staying power which it doesn’t have. It barely stays for 2 hours. But the good thing is that, even you have some drink it doesn’t gets vanished off. The fragrance is very frutish and mild which I loved very much (It is really exotic as they claim) and it also spreads smoothly over your lips. The things that disappointed me are the sticky feel, no pink tint and staying power :(. Other than that, it’s a good smelling lip gloss which is decently priced.
Rating: 3/5 (-1 for the sticky feel, -0.5 for staying power and -0.5 for no pink tint)
❤ My Experience with this Product
This lip gloss basically disappointed me for the reason “No Pink tint”. I am wondering how they name it is as Pink sugar where there is nothing than shiny glitters. But when I top it up with a lipstick it looks rich and fabulous and for that reason it is worthy I feel. It stayed on my lips for 2 hours and after that I lost the glitters and moisturizing effect. So, this wont be a great pick for extremely dry lips 🙁 Even when I drink coffee or some other drink, the gloss didn’t budge and all over it has SPF to prevent lips, so these are the good things. Overall it’s a good product which has a mild fragrance and glamorous glitters which goes with lipsticks well. It is decently priced, handy and attractively looking too. As it has a good quantity, lasts for months too. Nothing to say much good or bad about this lip gloss.
Rating: 3.5/5

PROS
  1. Very Cute and Hygienically packed.
  2. Comes in a semi transparent tube, hence it is easy to find how much is left.
  3. The yummy and mild fruity smell doesn’t bother any noses. I love it.
  4. Rich glittery particles are present hence can be a great party wear (Only along with lipstick)
  5. The slanting tip applicator makes every application easy and thus every squeeze is in great control.
  6. Spreads smoothly over lips and doesn’t budges off with any liquid intake.
  7. For this price, the quantity is quite good and hence lasts for months.
  8. This one will be a great pick for transparent and shiny lip gloss lovers.
CONS
  1. No Pink Tint is showed on lips for the name “Pink Sugar”
  2. Stays barely for 2 hours, then the glitter and moisturizing effect disappears.
  3. Not a great moisturizing gloss for dry lips anytime.
  4. I felt this little sticky on my lips, yet not sure about how others will feel.
Recommendation: Go for it if you are expecting a glossy & glittery lip gloss to top up with lipstick as it looks fabulous and decently priced. Not for the ones who have extremely dry lips and love tinted glosses. (It’s not that good at staying power and little sticky too)

Overall Rating: 3.5/5 (Expecting the pink tint and more staying power)

Will I repurchase again?: Not sure. May be! Because I would like to try some other tinted glosses. If I don’t get this glittery much one anywhere, I will surely get this to use with my lipstick for a rich and shiny look.
